Yandere Bungou Stray Dogs Hc’s

Jouno Saigiku

♦️Jouno may not be able to see but as a compensation for his lack of vision, he is able to pick up on so much more than the average human. He can read someone's emotions based on their heartbeat, their breathing pattern and even their blood flow and that is perhaps the most terrifying aspect of having him obsessing over you. He knows you better than anyone else as you are essentially an open box for him as all secrets are always spelled out by the melody of your body. There is no privacy for you when around him and Jouno abuses and uses all of this against you. At first he is more subtle about how he presents himself before you, careful with the words he chooses and the secrets he reveals about you. Even if he is so composed, there is this certain creepiness he has as he gives you a small smile and sometimes his sadistic side seeps through as he torments you more to relish in your rapid heartbeat and the unease he can sense inside of you even if you try to hide it desperately.

♦️It is fairly easy for Saigiku to track you down even among other people, your heartbeat a special song he has engraved in his mind and your voice a siren's song that pulls him in as soon as he hears it. Jouno is stalking you, he follows you as he remembers the places you visit often until he can almost predict where he can find you if he has free time and wishes to see you. He exhibits some very possessive traits as he doesn't enjoy other people you keep around you as he is a man who could never imagine himself sharing you with someone and unfortunately even friends and family are put in this category. You feel this growing dread as weeks pass by until he pulls the rag from beneath your feet as he organises for the government to place you under special security and ensure that you are always kept within his reach. Saigiku tells you that it would be better for you to just get used to your new lifestyle because he surely won't let you leave his side again. It's your fault being such an adorable and interesting thing~

♦️Truthfully spoken, Saigiku belongs in a category where he is overall most of the time more possessive than he is jealous. If he had to describe to you how he feels when he senses you conversing with someone else, he'd just bluntly tell you that he just doesn't enjoy it. He has never enjoyed hearing you talking with someone else unless it was necessary and he ensures that your abilities to speak with a lot of people besides himself are limited as soon as you are where he wants to have you. Especially when he is with you he would greatly appreciate it if you were to refrain for ignoring him for someone else but even if he is on missions, you aren't able to talk with a lot of people. Most of them just ignore you out of fear of Jouno because no one has the courage to talk to you, much less flirt with you because Saigiku will always find out. Worst is that you are in most cases also made a scapegoat and punished which manages to scare you away from any unnecessary conversation. The only people you can chat with without too much consequences are the other Hunting Dogs.

♦️Despite Saigiku often trying to appear like the most civilized one of the Hunting Dogs, he's still just as violent as everyone else. He just tries to hide it better behind his composure. He doesn't take any injustice or disregard of his rules lightly though. You are often punished when you don't behave as you ignore the rules he has told you about and the same counts for others. Harsh threats are often given out despite his calm expression as he is not afraid to threaten and wish ill will upon those who he takes orders from. His sadistic nature makes him quite the terrifying enemy if someone dares to commit any injustice against you because he has never taken crimes lightly and he takes it even more seriously when it comes to you. You know that he doesn't just give a criminal who tried to harm you just a simple death because that would be too easy. No. he'll make them regret the day their pitiful existence came to be in this world.

♦️Saigiku gives you the most legal abduction as the government decides to support him for this one thing. They can't risk one of their Hunting Dogs potentially being distracted because of you and Jouno knows this and uses this to have them agree. It's undeniable that you are his soft spot and as much as he dislikes you for making him feel more vulnerable, he knows that he has to preserve you somewhere for this exact reason. If enemies would find out about you, they would without a doubt come for you since you are an easier target than the Hunting Dog himself. The mere thought of someone using you against him only because you hold such meaning for him is almost humiliating so prevent anyone from ever using you against him, he locks you away and keeps you fairly isolated. the government covers your disappearance up as not even friends and family are ever allowed to figure out what happened to you.

♦️It's best for you if you learn how to keep your emotions properly under control because otherwise you will get on his nerves. Jouno is incredibly insensitive to strong emotions because he can pick up on them so well and for that they annoy him. So it isn't uncommon for him to leave you alone when you have a mental breakdown and just tell you harshly and coldly to calm down before he goes. He just never gives you a break, especially the first few months after he has abducted you. It's all harsh and humiliating words as you aren't able to lie or hide anything from him because he always senses it as your own body betrays you. Eventually he slowly starts adjusting though as he learns to deal better with your emotions although he is still very hesitant to allow himself to be more vulnerable around you. He can’t say that he doesn’t enjoy it though, knowing that he’s the one who protects you.

Suehiro Tetchou

🌸Tetchou is much more pure in comparison to Jouno as his desires lie in the genuine wish to protect you from any harm. Although this simple desire can drastically escalate because he is very protective. In fact Tetchou is so protective to the point where he can delude himself into believing that what he has done was the right thing to do even if his actions have caused you sorrow and fear. He’d never hurt you, he knows that. So tears and sadness from you tear away at his core belief and almost as if in a way to cope with the situation and to not break down, he deludes himself into believing that he knows better. He’s a Hunting Dog after all, he has experienced so much more than you could ever in your entire life. His decisions are based on those experiences you have never endured nor will ever have to endure now that he’s in your life. Don’t hate him for he has only done what is best for you.

🌸Having already established this man as someone who is tattering on the side of delusional thoughts, it should be pointed out that it takes Tetchou a good while until he has even figured out his own feelings for you. He initially never suspects his feelings to be of romantic nature as he sticks with you whenever he has the time nor when his mind is constantly drifting to you multiple times a day. Surely you mean much to him but not in that way…right? Somehow he remains oblivious to his feelings or perhaps he is just not willing to acknowledge his feelings to keep the lid sealed on his obsession. Acknowledging means losing to his obsession and almost unconsciously he seems to be aware of that and attempts to deny his feelings. Until either time wears him down or a trigger happens which causes everything to just explode out of him with such an intensity that it almost overwhelms him.

🌸Much more lenient than some other Hunting Dogs, Tetchou attempts to let you keep as much of your freedom as he can. That includes your social life as long as no one poses a threat for you. He doesn’t mind your friends and family and if they are loyal and friendly, he acknowledges them as people who have helped you through your life so far. Jealousy is low-key a bit awkward for Tetchou though as he stands there and stares at the other person as if trying to decipher why the hell they trigger such nasty feelings within him. He isn’t overly vocal though as he is more the type to admit at one point very bluntly that he wants them to not step so close to you or that he doesn’t like them talking to you all whilst standing right behind you or stepping protectively in front of you. At this point he has held it in for too long and usually tries to end the interaction.

🌸He isn’t nearly as patient or enduring when it comes to his wants to protect you. He is quick and acts as swiftly as possible. Tetchou wouldn’t admit it to you but he runs a brief investigation on everyone you keep close to you to be completely sure that he can trust them. If anyone is suspicious, he has small remorse to cut them out of your life until he has found out everything he needs to know. He is a very strong advocate for justice and whilst he wouldn’t be as discriminating as Jouno when it comes to everyone who has a bit of a bad history, he isn’t lenient either. He’d prefer to only have good and honest people surrounding you and with his delusional belief that ultimately he does what is best for you, he can be strict and harsh under certain circumstances when he cuts your ties with people who physically or mentally abuse you and he has no guilt when he delivers the deadly blow if someone should pose a severe threat for your life.

🌸If he should ever erupt with the most likely trigger being your own life being in danger, he will use the same method as Saigiku. He will request special custody for you. That includes the isolation and your mysterious disappearance as he is fully aware what that will do to you. Your disappointed and resentful eyes cut deeper than his own sword ever cut as he feels something slowly collapsing. This is when his own defense fully kicks in as he builds those delusional walls to protect himself from going insane. He reaches the peak of his delusional behavior as he genuinely insists that what he does is only for your own good. Whilst he still understands why you are upset, he prioritizes your safety over your freedom. Sometimes you just can’t have both of those options coexisting with each other and have to sacrifice one of them. He has decided to sacrifice your freedom for your safety.

🌸Tetchou probably is one of the most normal people from the Hunting Dogs. He still has his fair share of weird quirks but most of them are quite cute for the most part. This man could literally stare at you for hours if he has the time and You can’t even remember that you see him blinking much whenever he does so. He’s kind enough to share his strange mixtures of same-colored food with you and legitimately doesn’t seem to understand what you find so appalling about it. He’s rather chill most of the times as he just lets you decide what you two should do. As long as he can accompany you, he doesn’t complain much and is alright with most of the stuff you do together with him. Be careful though if you ever have a cuddle session with him as he is very reluctant to let you leave his hold once he has you in his arms.

Nikolai Gogol

🕊️Nikolai is a wonderful actor as he stumbles in your life, parading as someone who is perfectly normal and despite being extremely crazed in reality, you don't suspect anything. Because he does such a wonderful job in hiding everything he is. Above all what stands out about Nikolai is his unique obsession he has with you as he isn't quite possessive in a normal sense. He envies the birds able to fly freely in the sky without any chains binding them yet here he is, shackled with the chains of his own feelings which rob him of his capability, his right, to soar high into the sky. His obsession is the heaviest of those chains and behind his sweet smile he hides a deep resentment against you for caging him in like this. His fantasies range from sweet and innocent images of both of you sharing a passionate kiss with each other to truly deranged ones where he is choking and strangling you and both make his heart beat equally enraptured out of his chest to the point where he doesn't know what he wants.

🕊️Nikolai is surely also very sadistic because as his lover you should also take part in his suffering. He stalks you, follows you and even breaks into your house as he slowly induces you with paranoia without ever revealing himself. He watches with delight as you slowly start losing your sanity as he forces your paranoid mind to push away and reject all the people in your life as they start seeing you as mentally ill which has you shedding tears as you don't even know yourself anymore. It escalates until only he is left to soothe your tears, his grip occasionally tightening on your face as you wipes your tears away with his thumb, a sweet grin on his face that slowly darkens. Sometimes he has a hard time taming his dark impulses as his eyes dart to your neck, his hands brushing against it as he has to swallow slightly when he feels your pulse underneath his palms. Suddenly you feel him squeezing your neck in a slowly tightening hold and only when you look confused and startled up does he snap out of it and returns to his harmless grin.

🕊️Jealously is a burden to Nikolai as it is only a heavy chain more that ties him down to you. He feels like he is forced into acting as this feeling always presses onto his chest as he watches you with someone else. A part of him despises how carefree you look, so liberated from any negative emotions whilst he is left silently suffering behind you. How dare you? How dare you to rob him of his freedom whilst enjoying yourself so much? He plays quite the despicable play whenever he feels this pressuring jealousy wrapping itself around his body like a rope he can't free himself from as he resents you equally as much as the one you interacted with. He will punish both his darling and the other person for their low and infuriating display of emotions, for their crime of looking so free whilst he is left chasing after his own.

🕊️Death through his hands is genuinely horrifying as he treats it all like a twisted game. He dangles the option of escape always in front of his victim's nose only to shatter that illusion seconds before they could get away from him. If he can't get his own freedom, they won't either. Worst is that not only people who are involved with you get involved with this. He occasionally lets you play one of those games too as he literally just collects people from the street who mildly annoy him upon first impression. As cruel the deaths of those people are, they aren't his real victims but merely pawns in his game where the main attraction will be your downfall into madness and hopelessness. You are forced to follow the twisted rules of his game as he sometimes even forces you to kill those innocent people yourself. He enjoys your downfall into despair though. You don't look that free anymore yourself as the chains of guilt and terror keep you down on the ground. At least both of you are on the same page now~

🕊️For quite a long time Nikolai just seems to play around with you like a child would with their favorite toy. He follows you around as your stalker and masked nightmare whilst simultanously taking the role of your only friend at one point as everyone else abandons you. He just enjoys to see your struggles as he loves observing you as every tear you shed and every mental breakdown you have has him feeling a bit better about his own fate as he extracts his revenge upon you. There is no real plan to this abduction besides a simple and random will of his. Both of you could be literally anywhere before he suddenly reveals his other side to you and admits to you that he has been the one who has driven you over the edge and that he was the one who made you doubt your own sanity. There's a gleeful grin on his face as he drinks in your horrified expression. Dove, did he ever tell you that you would look lovely in a cage?

🕊️You have to fear for your life constantly each and every day from that day on as you always have to prepare for the worst possible. Nikolai's behavior can switch so suddenly as he is quite unpredictable. In one moment he could shower you with kisses before he suddenly presses a knife against your neck and you can feel a thin trail of blood trickling down only to go back to kissing the wound on your neck again affectionately. It is a torture to not know what might be happening. Unknown to you though, not Nikolai knows anymore what he should do. In one moment he wishes to feel your cold and lifeless skin under his fingers and in the next he wants to just cuddle and shower you in affection. Your death and your life both seem equally appealing to him as he feels the chains tightening around his body as he always lacks the final push to murder you. The next time, he always tells himself. There's always the next time.

Sigma

☁️Sigma is an utterly dedicated man who has come to terms that his whole reason for existence can be found in you. His purpose is pinpointed back to you and so with a finally concrete goal in life, he almost throws himself willingly into the pitfall of his own obsession. Perhaps a part of him can rationalise why you are so unappy with your current situation as well as why his feelings are wrong from several perspectices. Yet Sigma would take this new obsession anyday over the dark and empty tear inside of him that used to grow everyday because he didn't know of his purpose of being in this world. So whilst his guilt is enough for you to occasionally manipulate him and enough to make him spoil you in his attempts to appease you and give you happiness, it isn't enough so that he would ever allow you to leave his side. He's too selfish to ever let you abandon him and leave him all lost and shattered.

☁️With a fierce determination and a feeling of need inside of his heart, he memorizes everything about you until he could repeat it at any given time. He has a duty to know everything about you from the food you enjoy to the allergies to please you and fulfill you your wishes like no one else could. When one of the information he has gotten proves to be wrong or outdated, he panics quickly as he apologizes over and over again to you. Sigma is certainly very paranoid that anything could happen to you so there are cameras installed in the large room he has specifically designed for you in his casino so that he can always check what is going on if he should feel uneasy. Then there are also special guards assigned to not let you leave or to accompany you at the very least if you should go somehwere.

☁️Sigma is for sure on a more insecure side so he is prone to jealousy which is induced by paranoia and fear that you might try to leave him for someone else. He needs a lot of reassurance from your side in any form to feel more peaceful with his life and better about his own existence because if you were to truly try to leave him for someone better, he would have failed his only purpose in life. It's this unease that often leads him into keeping you isolated more than he should as he is so incredibly skittish to let you go under other people. Even if he allows you on certain days to chat with some of the customers, he somehow can't ease his controlling grip as he schedules purposely for you to end up talking with people he has studied beforehand and has paired up with you with the thought that they wouldn't appeal to you for different reasons. Please don't hold it against him. He's just so terrified that you might want to leave him for someone else.

☁️He's probably the member of the Decay of Angels that would be considered the most harmless because despite his paranoia, Sigma isn't sadistic nor does he take the act of murder lightly. He takes so much preparation for you to never run into any sort of troubles and for his Sky Casino to never be attacked in any way or shape that he already keeps trouble often away before it can appear. That doesn't mean that he won't take extreme measurements if anything should ever pop up that might endanger your life. As skittish and insecure Sigma might be at times he is definitely putting up a different facade when your life is in danger as you are the one thing he can not effort to lose. So even the act of killing someone will be ordered by him if he can't think of any other way to solve this issue. As guilty as he might feel for it at times, he is still clinging onto the thought that at least their death ensured that you wouldn't be in any harm.

☁️An abduction with Sigma is bound to happen, although he takes a less rough and violent approach to it. He is planning the entire thing weeks before it happens as he reads every information about you he could get his hands on and then prepares and designs the room himself with what he thinks you would love most. He puts so much heart and soul into it because he only strives for perfection when it comes to you that you would almost feel flattered if you wouldn't be permanently stuck in this suite now. You don't even know what he has in mind when he one day nervously asks you to come with him only to lead you into this room before offering you a drink, spiked with drugs. He explains everything hastily you just before the drugs start taking effects and you start feeling sluggish and tired and don't possess the strength needed to rebel against his sudden declaration that he can't let you leave him anymore.

☁️Getting into arguments with you is never good for his mentality especially if you harshly critize him and he can basically feel your resentment and your hatred festering inside of him. He needs your approval, he needs your affection because otherwise his existence will never feel validated. He showers you in presents of clothes, food, jewelry and hundreds of other things he hopes you enjoy in an attempt to appease you and lessen your anger against him. Sigma has a hard time leaving you alone for even a few hours as he gets quickly anxious and uneasy without your presence and checking the cameras he has installed inside your room only help that long. So he often pays you short visits in between his work to bask in your presence for a bit and to calm himself down before going back to his work. Even with his composed image in his workplace, he is awfully easy to tease and to fluster as his face quickly flushes red whenever you show him affection and he is especially shy when it comes to physical affection because you're literally the first one to do about everything with him. From the first hug to the first kiss.

Okay, it’s a fanfic idea I have and I promise it’s good.

Just someone, hear me out, for a second - please?

Imagine this, if you will; Saigiku Jouno, prince of the North, powerful and deadly despite his disability, can turn his opponents minds against them in a instant, sadistic and a master in psychological warfare.

Then, we have Suehiro Tecchou, prince of the South, in line to be king, someone who stands up for his civilians and villages, protects them with all he can, a amazing king but he’s not to be fucked with, many taking his kindness for granted.

Imagine they have marry each other to form an alliance, and make a powerful economy with their shared kingdoms. Imagine they hate each other; Jouno hates Tecchou for his positive outlooks and his recklessness, not to mention his god-awful food combinations. Tecchou hates Jouno because of his apathy towards a lot of things, his sadism, and his mouth - god, does Jouno have a mouth of a brat.

Soon, they come to an even ground and a realization of eachother. Jouno isn’t as bad as he seems, and Tecchou isn’t as good-hearted and of high morality as he seems, that is, with the right motivation.

PLEASE PLEASE I BEG SOMEONE TAKE MY CASE INRO CONSIDERATION

CASE OPENED FOR DISCUSSION BUT NOT TO BE WRITTEN BECAUSE DAMN MY WIP FOLDER IS LARGE

Hello. It is I, the anon who dreamed of Jouno twice. Could I request a female reader who’s like around 12, and she’s Tetchou’s younger sister, and she’s scared of Jouno? Because TETCHOU tells her abt Jouno’s interrogations and sadism and one day she meets Jouno for the first time and is low key scared of him and runs away and hides from him every time lol. And he goes ??? (lol and you can add TETCHOU or Taxhihara comforting the reader) anywayzzzzz have fun! :D

Hellooo Jouno's next victim anon. I had a lot of fun writing this loll. Hope you enjoy and thanks for the request!

Hunting Dogs x Female Reader Strictly Platonic

Summary: in the ask

Warnings: none that I can think of

WC: 0.7k

Main Masterlist

You would like to think of yourself as a brave person. After all, with Tetchou as your brother, you knew he would be there to protect you and he may or may not have taught you how to keep yourself safe. But, you will admit that you are absolutely terrified of his colleagues. Tachihara being the exception.

But no one scared you as much as Saigiku Jouno.

You had never met the man, but Tachihara and Tetchou’s descriptions of him painted him to be a sadist that the world was lucky to have on the side of the Hunting Dogs. Had Jouno been part of a criminal organisation, everyone was sure that he would make everyone’s lives harder.

So with that impression of him, your reaction to him coming to your house with Tetchou was understandable. You screamed and slammed the door in their faces, narrowly missing Jouno’s fingers.

“That was very loud,” Jouno remarked.

Tetchou sighed and opened the door with his key. If he had known you’d react this way, he would have given you a heads up rather than surprising you like this.

When Jouno stepped inside, you dropped the frying pan you were shakily pointing at the door and ran up to your room. Tetchou’s mouth widened. You really were scared of Jouno. Was it because of how he described Jouno? He didn’t think Jouno sounded that bad.

“How old is your sister?”

“Twelve,”

“Well I can come back another time to get my uniform,”

“No, it’s fine. It’s my fault for accidentally taking your uniform instead of my own. I’ll go fetch it,”

The doorbell rang.

“Would you mind getting that for me?”

Tetchou ran up to his room to grab Jouno’s uniform, while Jouno unlocked the door.

“Jouno?”

“Good evening Tachihara,”

“Have you finally killed Tetchou?”

“Unfortunately no. What gave you that impression?”

“Tetchou didn’t answer the door and neither did his sister, you did and well, you two aren’t exactly best friends,”

“I see. So, you come here often?”

“I’m quite good friends with Y/N, so I do try visit as often as I can,”

Tachihara stepped inside as Jouno shut the door.

“Is Tetchou’s sister always like this when she first meets people?”

“Always like what?”

“She appears to be running from me in fear. I haven’t seen her reacting to any of the other Hunting Dogs so I assume that she is merely scared of the Hunting Dogs,”

“Or just you,” Tetchou teased.

He entered the hallway with Jouno’s uniform draped over his arm. Jouno’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

“What do you mean by that?”

“Well when I first met Y/N, she was shy at first, but she wasn’t scared,” Tachihara replied.

“She’s also met Teruko and those two got on very well,” Tetchou added.

Jouno frowned. Was he doing something wrong? Perhaps his facial expression was stern? Why were people so hard to understand? Jouno sighed heavily.

“This is a mystery I don’t care to solve, so I’ll be leaving now,”

“What mystery? We all know she’s scared of you,” Tetchou said.

“The mystery is why,”

With that, Jouno waved and exited the home to go return to his own. Once the door shut, Tetchou and Tachihara exchanged glances.

“She’s really scared of Jouno?”

“Yeah. I think it’s best that you talk to her. You rarely said a bad thing about Jouno. If I try I’ll look like a liar,”

“Sure,”

Tachihara walked up to your bedroom door and knocked.

“Hey Y/N? Can you let me in?”

Tachihara heard sounds of shuffling behind the door until it swung open to reveal you with a pale face.

“Is he gone?”

“Jouno’s gone, you don’t need to be afraid,”

You sat down on the edge of your bed with Tachihara joining you. He patted your back.

“Even If Jouno was still here, you wouldn’t need to be afraid, because-”

“Because you and Tetchou will keep me safe. I know,”

“Well yes, but also, Jouno isn’t a bad guy. Sure he seems scary and does scary things to people, but he only does that to bad people. And you��re a good person aren’t you?”

“Yeah,”

With a small smile, you let your head rest on Tachihara’s shoulder.

“Besides, if Jouno were to deem you a bad person, I’m always by your side; and so are your brother and Teruko. Against the rest of us, Jouno doesn’t stand a chance,”

“You promise?”

“I promise,”

an encounter.

'Tecchou!' Teruko calls out from the other side of the inner room as the swordsman's attack on the witch gets deflected.

'Leave it to me.', you assure them. You sense that by doing so, you have directed its attention to you. As if staged, you dodge its attack and speak once again. 'You okay?'

'I'll live.', Tecchou says with ragged breathing. 'Dammit, I can taste blood in my throat.'

'Ignore it.', you reply almost immediately. 'Like you said, you'll live. Let me handle this.'

'You really wanna do this without a plan?', Teruko has placed herself in a high position in the barrier, leaning itself well for a bird's eye view. 'You're not going to hold it off until Tachihara and Fukuchi are done clearing the familiars?'

'Nah.' You hold up your hand.

'Jouno, don't be stupid.' Tecchou sighs.

'They can wait. Let them take their time. Tecchou, I'll taunt and direct it towards you. You'll finish it off, then.'

'Got it.', Tecchou reluctantly agrees with your 'plan' for as far as he can call it a 'plan'. 'Also, pay attention to your Soul Gem.' he says as a final warning.

'What do you mean?', you ask, but feel at the same time that it's had better days. 'Never mind...' You jump away and face the witch directly.

That surprises Teruko. 'Jouno, what are you...?'

But you don't pay attention to her. 'Hey, you.', you speak in a low voice. 'Don't you go and underestimate me just because I so happen to be blind. I'll cut you down! Oh, what's that?', You move away from another attack and choose position again. You can hear the worried screams and cries of Teruko and Tecchou and feel Tachihara and Fukuchi nearing the place, but you go on nonetheless. 'I know exactly what is bothering you. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. You can't send your familiars anymore, huh? That's right; my friends just killed them all!'

Suddenly, Tecchou jumps in front of you and attacks the witch in your place. 'Enough!', He sends you an angry glare. 'Jouno, this time, you went too far!'

His words echo in your mind as you start to feel lightheaded. A high peep rings in your ears. 'Tecchou...' you whisper, before losing your consciousness and falling.

----

A few seconds later, you wake up.

'Ugh...' You grab your head as your awareness returns to you. But...

'Tecchou...? Teruko...? Where am I? Where are you?' You don't feel their presence anymore, but you also don't detect the witch.

'There you are.'

'Ah!'

Someone enters your perception.

'You...you are...?'

At first, this person seems like a stranger, but you soon feel who they are.

'...me?'

The magic trail seems to be your very own, and the voice as well comes close to yours, if a bit robotic sounding.

'You're quick as always, huh.', the copy of you laughs. 'That was a great performance of you back there, don't you agree?'

'You mean...', You think you know what it's talking about. 'My taunting of the witch?'

'Exactly.', Unlike with all other people you've met, you can't seem to detect the state of their heart at all. 'That's where your true self shines. Which is me, by the way. And I just love it when you do things like that!'

'What...what do you mean?' You start to get confused now.

'You revel in it, don't you? The way their heart beats faster when you do another threat and the sound of their ragged breathing as you tell them you will kill them here and now...'

'What the hell are you getting at?' You become a bit tired at its vagueness. It laughs again before answering you.

'Oh, come on, don't act as if you don't know! Don't say you like to...well, I can also say it directly if you're like this. You're a sadistic manchild.'

'That's what they all say.', You hold up your hands. It is far from the first time you've heard this. 'It's not all me, though. Gotta say it's also a result of all the tests I've had.'

'Oh, that's a lie.', The copy’s voice is inflected by laughter. 'The sadism has always been yours. Don't lie. I know when you're lying, so don't even try.' You sigh at that. 'Don't you sigh at me like that.' It continues to talk to you on a condescending tone. But currently, you lack any arguments to turn the tide. 'You honestly baffle me at times. You like threatening and killing others so much. Why not do that to everyone, if it sparks so much joy in you?'

You can't tell if it's serious. 'I have no idea if you're serious, but I can say that you're partially correct.', You speak up. 'However, I won't kill my friends. I wouldn't be able to handle four against one.'

'Why not?', It asks in a playful manner. 'You might die, but I'm sure it'd be worth it.'

'Dishonoring myself is worth it?' You think you can feel where it's getting at.

'Screw that perspective.', It draws out that first word. 'Think of the rush it'd give! Come on, you know them better than anyone! All of their weaknesses and bad habits. And you know you like it...' The copy of you is bursting with excitement when talking about it.

You snap. 'I understand the point you're making. Don't worry, you won't need to repeat yourself. But this, this is where I draw the line in the sand. I'll never threaten or hurt my friends!'

It pauses for a second, then speaks up again. 'You're more pathetic than I thought. I'm part of you, so you still have this idea deep inside.'

You realize that one and one makes two - the sole fact that this proposal is made by this part of you, directly implies that the idea is still somewhere in your heart.

'...you have a point.'

'Good.', is the sole thing it reacts with initially. 'It's about time that you become aware of my existence. You don't need to act on me...although it'd be more fun if you did, haha.'

You draw the logical conclusion that to change its behavior or even make it disappear, you'll have to change yourself.

'I'll get you out.' you say with confidence.

'I'd love to see you try.', And there it is, the same condescending tone as before. 'I'll always be a part of you. Whether you like it or not.' You don't know what to think of this comment. 'So, consider my offer. I'll be there. For now...'

Teiresias

Doppel of enjoyment. Its form is a corporal punishment device. The master of this emotion is not happy with it lingering in his heart, and would rather see it gone. It subjects anything in its surroundings, no matter friend or foe, to torture that fits the sins of the victim. This is purposefully not enough to kill, so it often toys around with them, each punishment more cruel than the last. An enormous sense of relief will fall on its master once it disappears again. It is one out of five representations of punishment goals, this one representing satisfaction.

'...Jouno?'

Teruko's voice brings you back to reality.

'I'm...' You regain sweet, sweet consciousness and find yourself at the place you found the barrier. Which must mean...

'You defeated the witch.', Fukuchi states. 'You blacked out there for a few seconds or so.'

'Really?', You frown. 'It felt longer. Like five minutes, at least.'

'It wasn't nearly that long.', Tecchou emphasizes the word 'nearly'. 'But it was sudden, though. Not long after, you changed into this giant thing...' He slows down his explanation.

'What do you mean exactly?' You stand up and tilt your head.

'Well...', You can hear at his way of speaking that Tecchou hesitates to tell you. 'It was surrounding you. I don't know how to describe it. It was a horrifying sight, with ropes and blades and...lots of blood everywhere...'

Teruko suddenly shouts. 'Yeah, it was so awesome!'

A shiver runs down your spine. 'Ugh. Let's forget it for the time being.' You want to ask for the Grief Seed, but realize your Soul Gem is clean now.

'Good idea.', Tecchou agrees. 'Let's get back to base. My soy sauce latte is waiting for me.'

'You never change, do you.' You smile at another of his strange decisions.

And neither will you.
