Chasing The Sun

Summary: The story of how you fell in love with the Devil King’s right hand, Hideyoshi Toyotomi. Tags: Canon-Divergent, Fluff.  *Matchup written for the lovely @kamesama​ , I hope you enjoy your love story with your suitor. 

How on Earth were you able to just sit like that in front of the Devil King? What in the name of the seven heavens and eight hells were you thinking, sitting with your arms crossed and a nonchalant look on your face before the man who was on the quest of ruling all of Japan?

Not only did you suddenly appear in Azuchi, creating a ruckus in the gardens of Lord Nobunaga’s castle, looking for what you called “a cellphone” and “a police station” but you were also giving these grown men a piece of your mind while they looked at you incredulously. 

You obviously thought that you were in some sort of play or the universe was pulling some prank on you. Was there something even called time travel?

After taking in your surroundings, everyone was speaking in Japanese and you were somehow able to understand them and speak the language too. Not perfectly, but enough to get by and find yourself before the man that all of Japan feared the most.

Was this a curse or blessing? You looked around you to find the most heartachingly handsome men that were apparently warlords and they were sitting around you in what they called the Council Room. They were:

Bewildered by what you had to say. So… after much explanation from your end and getting some clarity from the panicked Hideyoshi who had been rambling to his Lord (and dropping lots of hints that helped you get to the conclusion of where and when you were), you claim to be from the future?

Either utterly amused or baffled by your behaviour and demeanour before their Lord.

Nobu’s crimson eyes were locked on you with a faint smirk drawn on his lips, Hideyoshi was obviously mortified and had been silenced by a simple “enough” from his Lord, Mitsuhide was snickering joined by Masamune who was trying to muffle his chuckles and Ieyasu rolling his eyes at them for acting like young boys. Mitsunari though? The angel was looking at you like a cat with big wide curious eyes that just wanted to know (play) with you.

The most impressive thing about the whole situation: you were so composed when facing someone with a commanding presence, not even flinching under his studious and heavy gaze. Nobu couldn’t help but be impressed and thought that you would be entertaining to keep by his side.Same shit, different day when it comes to the Devil King. If something entertained him, he would keep it around until he deemed it of no use to him (or that’s what you would think).

Seeing how unfazed you are and how you met him with a passive gaze that challenged something within him. Nobunaga decided to make a bet with you: become a Sengoku woman within less than a month and he will help you find a way home and back to your time. If you didn’t, then you would have to stay in the Sengoku Era and wed him.

First thought: What the actual….

Second thought: This man did have the power to do something like that. Thinking over your non-existing options, you would just have to agree.

Who would even want to marry a man like him? Nothing about him but his appearance was alluring to you in that moment, even though something inside did tell you that he would be more than able to show you a good time but you just pushed that thought to the back of your mind.

The golden-haired annoying beauty, Hideyoshi dared to open his mouth to protest… and being the mischievous Devil King that he was, Nobu put Hide in charge of you and you were officially under his patronage, tutelage or whatever you wanted to call it but from what you’ve seen, you definitely thought that the Sengoku Era was not for you… and most probably, a big nightmare that you were just waiting to wake up from.

While Hideyoshi and even you wanted to protest (yet again), the man called an end to the meeting and winked at you, wishing you good luck.

You weren’t going to be able to become a Sengoku woman, nor were you interested in becoming one, to be completely honest, but you needed a guide. But... Why… Why did it have to be him?

Living in a mansion with a man as fussy as him was going to be a huge headache. By the way he acted, he seemed to possibly be a clean-freak and the super organized micromanager type about everything in his life. But when you arrived at his mansion, you were surprised to be greeted by a swarm of smiles and simply… so much feel-good vibes.

It was hard to pinpoint it but there was this aura that surrounded the warlord, or more like, the ambience would change when he was around. You noticed it even when you followed him through the streets of Azuchi while on the way to his mansion. However, it was still your first day in Azuchi, you would have more time to figure things out later after you’ve had some much needed sleep.  

He had the maids prepare the second largest room in his castle, with a hot bath and almost a dozen of kimonos, yukatas of all colours for you to choose from. You didn’t need all of this, anything would do but someone was going over and above… For someone who was so reluctant to have you stay with him and was awfully disgruntled about the prospect of you marrying his Lord, you did not expect to have such a warm welcome into what would become your new home.

In order to get things on track and yeet you out of the Sengoku Era as soon as possible, you woke up to the soft knock on your door and the sound of a man clearing his throat. Not only were you greeted by the sight of the gorgeous man entering your room with the rays of sunlight shining through your window making his hair look like actual tresses of gold and his bright smile, making you feel a weird fuzzy feeling in your chest as he set your breakfast tray before you. What did you deserve to be spoiled like this? It honestly felt like you had woken up in a reverse-harem maid cafe that was actually a bed and breakfast hotel?

Your thoughts completely mislead you. Hideyoshi was taking you through a schedule that he had prepared for you in order to get you accustomed to the current times and its needs. It was a rotation where you spent a day with one warlord every day, acquiring whatever knowledge you could from all of them. Medicine with Ieyasu, History with Mitsunari, Culinary Arts with Masamune, Japanese Language and Art of Dance with Mitsuhide, Horse-back riding with Nobunaga. Etiquette with Hideyoshi.

Cue: your first fight. You butted heads and made his life a living hell. As peaceful and respectful as he tried to be during your discussion with him, you argued with him until he lost his breath and his face turned a bright shade of red (that was surprisingly adorable but you didn’t really care for that in that moment) because you wouldn’t let him dictate things for you. It was YOUR way or no way at all. Nobody else had the right to manage your time for you. That was up to you and you alone and you wouldn’t let some beautiful man change that. He had to concede… not for you, but for his own sanity and for Nobu’s sake. That’s what he told himself at least, but you had the first win. The first to many more to come.

After sorting that out, Hideyoshi took it upon himself to take you on a tour around Azuchi, showing you all the best places to get whatever you needed, even introducing you to every single merchant and townsperson wherever you want. How did he even remember the name of all of these people?

He was… the town’s busybody? No. You could not even find the best word to describe how he was because there were way too many words that you could use, but not one of them would be enough. Anyway, let’s get your thoughts back on track. Not only do all the women, young and old, fawn over him but he was so well-loved because of his good deeds.

His objective was only to show you around before conducting your first lesson with him for the day but you were saved by an old lady that owned a cute little teashop who happened to ask him for help. That was weird. How could someone ask something so menial of a warlord?

Upon pulling both you and him by the hand inside her shop, she went on and on about how she loved his company as he reminded her of her son that she had lost in a war. There was this look in the warlord’s eye that didn’t go unnoticed but you just put a mental note on it. It seemed like Hideyoshi felt indebted to her somehow? And you! Well, you were so warm and nice to the teahouse owner that she took a liking to you and began spoiling you with every type of dango and sweet that her teahouse and Azuchi had to offer.

Four words: Sugar overload + sugar rush.

While you were chatting with the teahouse owner, Hideyoshi had been gently giving you instructions on how to sit, how to eat, how to hold different utensils and what gestures to use when people say certain things. He included all these comments so smoothly in the discussion that by the time you were done eating, your lesson had ended. As Hideyoshi announced that, telling you that “you did very well, all the treats you ate were well-deserved”, he gave you a bright smile and winked at you, which totally, totally did nothing to your heart.

He suggested to the teahouse owner if you could fill in, in his place, since you got along pretty well together and the old lady was almost ecstatic, taking you in her arms out of impulse and thanking you for agreeing to help her. Looks like you had no choice.

For a brief moment, Hideyoshi just stared at you before bursting into jolly laughter. You looked like a child so high on sugar, you were basically radiating energy and there was a spring in your step that you didn’t even have before. He took you by the hand and began running, looking back at you and shouting “Faster!! Time is of the essence. We’re going to chase the sun!” What he was saying made absolutely no sense but you found yourself giggling under your breath, running beside him until you reached the stables, he jumped on his steed and pulled you behind him. “Hold me as tight as you can. Don’t worry, I’m not fragile.” he joked as he clicked his tongue and you flew with the wind, beyond the bounds of Azuchi. 

You smiled and looked up at the sky, letting the breeze tickle your skin and your hair flying around you. As you inhaled deeply, you couldn’t help but rejoice in the smell of fresh air and sandalwood… Hideyoshi. So rich and sweet, it made you dreamily sigh without even realizing. When you suddenly came to a stop, Hideyoshi’s warm voice reached your ears and pulled you out of your daydream. He was showing you the sunset as it fell behind Azuchi castle, the colours of dusk blending with the fading flames of the sun that shines over the town that would become your home. 

As you were slowly coming down from your high and before you fell asleep on the warlord’s shoulder, you made him promise you to show you the sunrise and he gladly agreed to do so.

The next few days were quite busy for you. Following the schedule that you had set for yourself, you visited the teahouse of the old lady before your classes with “the warlord of the day”, as you called it. you went to help around the old lady, as Hideyoshi had promised on your behalf and began to understand him more, know even more about him without even having to ask any questions. You were also able to reach your own conclusions, after heaps of townspeople swarmed the old lady’s humble teahouse, talking about their different encounters with the Devil King’s right-hand man. 

The old lady loved him so much, saw so much in him and was so willing to gush about him as if he were her own son. He was charming…. Incredibly and unbelievably so. Just a simple glance at him and people were beaming at him. He came from the lower class, but you had no idea. He had this humility in his smile even though the way he held himself was graceful and his tone, the words that so eloquently spilled out of those lips of his would never indicate that he grew up as anything other than a nobleman (which made you like him even more).

By the end of the week, the teahouse owner no longer was in need of your services since her daughter, who had been sick, was feeling all better and ready to help around. (Hideyoshi didn’t even tell you but your experience in the teahouse was part of your on-ground training and he didn’t even need to give you more lessons, yet he chose to so he could spend more time with you)

After your first round of so-called lessons with all the warlords, Nobunaga held a banquet in your honour, his own questionable way of formalizing the bet and challenge between you. You weren’t entirely sure whether he was mocking you, testing you or just playing mind games with you but that didn’t stop you from having your own fun. As everyone drank themselves into oblivion and upon discovering that you did not indulge in any type of liquid courage, Masamune had dedicated his night to stuffing your mouth with all the delicacies imaginable, sweet, sour, savoury and even bittersweet. The man was a masterchef genius (that Gordon Ramsay would definitely envy and admire but that’s a discussion for another time/day) and didn’t even mind.

In the corner of the room, your eyes reluctantly yet instinctively crawled to cast a quick look on Hideyoshi. A quick glance wouldn’t be enough to appreciate the sight before your eyes. The Adonis of Azuchi was seated languidly like a beautiful courtesan, intoxicated as she nursed her sake while prattling to others in a banquet. His emerald kimono slid down one shoulder, along with his white haori, slowly and teasingly exposing more of his bare skin,  his chest was almost fully on display, his lips glistening with remnants of sake as the inebriant seeped and coursed in his veins. This was an image that you would have trouble getting out of your head, not that you wanted to. He was utterly breathtaking, the way his lashes fluttered over his cheeks, his eyes slowly falling shut then opening lazily as he fought to stay awake.

Whenever one of his retainers came to take him back to his castle, he moaned and refused to let anyone touch him except for you. All the warlords began chuckling as Hideyoshi gladly let you embrace him in your arms, holding him up with the help of his retainers as he mumbled about sweet nothings that made your heart flutter. “Your hair looks so silky and beautiful, Kame… Would you ever let me touch it or maybe even brush it for you? You smell exquisite, not even the cherry blossoms of Kyoto could rival how sweet your scent is…” His face was dusted in pink from the sake but yours turned red for different reasons. You couldn’t wait to plop him down in his room and get away from him. You could no longer feel your face with him being around you.

As the days went by, you found yourself growing more accustomed to your routine and starting to actually like your life in Azuchi. Yeah, there probably wasn’t any technology around but you still managed to occupy yourself most of the time. Thanks to the fussy warlord who spouted so much nonsense when he was drunk.

One night, he was out drinking with the other warlords after a Council Meeting. You had absolutely no idea what it was about but it seemed like things were stirring up in a nearby area and action would have to be taken soon. That was none of your business so you spent the writing while staring up at the moon, the silver light invading your room as you wallowed in the dark pits of your mind.

As he came back from his night out, he tried to sneak, not too sneakily into your room. As he stood before your sliding door, he could hear your muffled sniffles and cries. Acting completely on impulse, Hideyoshi slid the door open, rushing to you, the fear of anything bad befalling you crushing his heart. As he kneeled before you, your cheeks were tinted in a deep shade of red, your eyes puffy as you sobbed helpless. In his drunken state, his eyes darted everywhere to check if you could possibly be injured, but there was no sign of anything.

Even as you protested meekly, Hideyoshi pulled you into his arms, holding your waist tightly and one of his arms around your shoulder, keeping you safe and secure in his embrace, letting your tears dampen his kimono while he caressed your hair softly with one hand, and the other rubbing soothing circles on the small of your back.

“It’s okay if you do not want to tell me what is on your mind. But do you mind if I say a few things myself? Yes? Okay, good. Well… I wanted to let you know that I’m happy that it was you that came from the future and not another young man or woman. I am pleased that a bright woman such as yourself made her way back through time to be with me… I mean with us, in Azuchi. You’re talented and you learn things quickly… only when you put your mind to it, obviously.” That earns a small laugh from both of you. “But I want you to promise me something. Please. If you ever feel like this again, and you wouldn’t mind me being around you… Call for me. Light a candle and place it in front of your door and I’ll be here with you in a heartbeat.”

Whenever you did light a candle, he came through with his promise. He only spoke if you wanted him to, he listened to your rambling, wiping the tears trickling down your cheeks and kissing your temples whenever he felt the need to say something but held himself back. He didn’t like to see you say such self-depreciative things but he wanted to let you know, through his actions, that he was prepared to shoulder all your burdens with you and wash away all those insecurities, if you would let him, showering with words of comfort that were only based on true facts and hints of how he truly felt about you.

After that night, he never lets himself drink and be around you when he does. Especially after sneaking into your room, he wasn’t sure what he was capable of or what he would do in an intoxicated state. He made it a rule and let all the warlords know that if he’s drinking, he’s staying with one of them.

He would scold you for staying up so late at night but he secretly liked to see you actually enjoying yourself. He would sometimes invite himself in your room and ask you about the things that you drew and what you enjoyed writing, his eyes narrowing with avid interest and curiosity to learn more about your time. He knew the right questions to ask you in order to unlock the “rambling” button in you and the warlord would be so pleased to be able to get you to speak to him so openly, looking so animated with excitement brimming from your voice. At that point, he no longer exuded this air of distrust, especially after seeing that you truly knew nothing about the Sengoku Era.

He often ended up falling asleep while hanging with you. It was easy to find yourself admiring his masculine beauty. His expression was so soft and vulnerable, without the usual crease between his brows caused by his constant micromanaging. His schedule was crazy busy but he still managed to find the time to hangout with you, pick you up and drop you off from each lesson of the day. It only made sense that he would be so exhausted. If he didn’t take good care of himself, you would at least try to do so, repay him for his kindness but also, try to make his life easier. Somehow.

During one of your late-night chats, you both got pretty hungry and decided to treat yourself to something. What exactly? Well… messing around the kitchen with Hideyoshi was so much fun but neither of you were good enough cooks to make anything that could be more than just… edible. Masamune would have a heart-attack if he saw what you were doing but thanking the heavens, he wasn’t around. Hideyoshi got intimately acquainted with your peculiar taste in food on that fateful night, blinking through tears as he tried to eat the odd creation that you had both made. At first, he thought he would be appalled but after a few bites taken out of courtesy to you,  he actually started to like it. Thus, the beginning of “Kame and Yoshi” late-night cook-offs to come.

The more you got used to each other, the more you teased one another. You weren’t entirely sure if you should call him “Hide” or “Yoshi” but you noticed how he would get boyishly flustered when you called him “Yoshi”, it just stuck and became your thing. It wasn’t necessarily a nickname given out of affection (or that was what you told yourself) but more of an expression of a blooming friendship. On another hand, he absolutely loved trying to find ways to make you blush, your cheeks reminding him of apples and, truth be told: he wanted to playfully bite them so much.

One day, you completely lost your shit on Hideyoshi for asking the maids to arrange your room since it was a complete mess. Little did you know, Hideyoshi had informed them maids to clean the entire castle spotless, but admittedly forgot to tell them to stay away from yours, fully knowing how you did not like anyone touching your things. He didn’t say anything to defend himself, standing completely silent and absorbing the frustration that radiated from you with the grace that he was known for. You refused to talk to him after that or even look at him. It was an invasion of your privacy and Hideyoshi believed that you had all the right to feel the way you did.

Wanting to be as far away from his castle as possible, you hiked your way up a hill to find some peace in the loneliness that nature had to offer. You spent a few hours just drawing/writing, letting off some of the pent up steam. It was much needed since you were able to clear your thoughts while breathing some fresh air. Looking at the broad horizons before you, you couldn’t help but think of the light brunet who made you feel so frustrated yet did everything possible to make you happy. Something in the back of your mind told you that it was all because he wanted you out of Azuchi and this era. But you were gravely mistaken.

Relying on your non-Sengoku era street-smart ability was not the wisest move. You had no idea where you were even though your surroundings were very familiar. After going in circles for what seemed like hours (40 minutes), you did manage to find your way back to Azuchi just in the nick of time! Being true to yourself, you know you had a lesson with the Devil King for some horse-back riding, still wondering why he even bothered spending time with you.

Who was the one waiting for you at the stables? None other than the handsome man that you were avoiding. His head was lowered in apology and he begged you to let him make it up to you. And he did, big time! You rode to a nearby village that was around 45 minutes away and they were holding a festival! There were fireworks, food stands and game booths and you ate almost everything that caught your eye, competitively played against Yoshi in most games before you saw the light of dawn appear. Have you been out for so long? Your pleasant outing ended yet again, with another chase of the sun.

You didn’t necessarily apologize for your behaviour the next day but he heard the maids whispering about you spending all night trying to make food, stuff that they didn’t even understand and his heart did melt at the thought. You were fussy about it and not having the same materials of the future, making the process much harder for you. Your go-to place to relax was on the top of that same hill where you had been sulking. He obviously tried to look for you and found you there, just watching the sunset. He smiled softly at you and you raised a brow at him with an unspoken “what’s up with you? what do you want?” But he said nothing, just sitting by your side, enjoying just being near. And you did the same. 

The more time, you go out to the city where he is supposed to be spending time with you, you get a bit flustered as to how every single person in town is trying to steal his attention from you. Various scenarios would occur but you would mainly stop even following him and go your separate way. Why did you even do that when the voice in your head told you that you wanted to be near him? (smh) Being the gentleman that he is, he’ll come find you and hold your hand, frowning at you. “What do you think you’re doing? If you’re planning on running away from me, then I guess I’ll have to find a way to keep you by my side.” He squeezed your hand, the top of his cheekbones blushing slightly as he pulled you closer to him, whisking your way through the alleys to wherever the sun would take you.

Being so close to him... felt natural.

One night before Hideyoshi had to travel, under Nobu’s orders, you and the warlord rode your steeds to a nearby river where you had a small picnic and spent the night stargazing. As you rambled on and on about what you knew of the stars and constellations, he gently pressed a finger to your lips. “I’m going to Kyoto at dawn. Things might get bad but I’m going to make sure that everything will be under control. I don’t want you to worry. Just wait for me and… as long as you are, I’ll be okay. Now.. Please... no word of this. Tell me more…”

His voice sounded as empty and lonely as you felt when he was away. Only 2 days had passed and you felt like something was missing. You went on with your day as if nothing was different yet the stinging feeling in your heart told you otherwise. Who were you lying to?

6 days later: He was finally coming home!!

You didn’t even realize that you laughed as a few tears fell the moment you saw Hideyoshi when he came back from whatever skirmish he was dealing with. Cuts, bruises and bandages everywhere. He even needed a few soldiers to carry him since he could barely move on his own! The words escaped your mouth without even knowing before you turned your back on him and rushed to the castle to prepare his room for him. 

You said something along the lines of (it was all so blurry so you weren’t even sure anymore): “Are you dense? I literally just had to hear about what you’ve done and that’s absolutely not acceptable. You’re always keeping your eyes on me and you don’t think you owe me just a small heads-up about your own buffoonery?”

You glared at Nobunaga and basically hissed at him. “This is all your fault. I was going to lose him because of you!”(little did you know, your small outburst made Nobunaga happy, especially after seeing the look on his right hand’s face.)

When he finally settled in and was laying on his futon, you kneeled beside him and brushed his hair away from his face, locking your eyes with his golden ones, a serious and intense look painted over your features.

You: You look like shit, Yoshi. I knew you were going to do some reckless shit. I was hoping you’d prove me wrong but here you are.

Hideyoshi: Watch that mouth, young lady.

You: You think you’re in a position to chastise me, Yoshi? You stopped giving me lessons days ago.

Hideyoshi: That doesn’t mean that you’ve learned your lesson, Kame.

You: Those are big words for a man that can barely lift himself off his futon. So much for promising to go chase the sun when you got back.

Hideyoshi: Hngh… I feel bad enough about that. I’ll make it up to you but please, do not tease me.

You: Mhm… what are you going to do if I don’t, Yoshi?

Hideyoshi: I did have something in mind… Come here.

Gently cradling the side of your face with one hand, his thumb softly rubbed over your rosy cheek as he groaned while lifting himself from the futon, a soft smile gracing his lips as you met him halfway in a tender kiss, filled with so much love and reverence. As you broke the kiss and tried to look away, he snaked his hand to your nape, threading his fingers through your hair and pulling you back to him as his back hit the floor, joyful sighs filling the silence of his room as you both finally allowed the love between you to flow freely.

Hideyoshi can get so uptight about things, nobody even bothers to question him because he’s a stubborn mother hen and once he puts his mind to something there is no changing his mind. Except when it came to you, so the other warlords would often try to get their way with things by attempting to use you against your lover. Unfortunately for them, you were a mischievous minx and instead of helping them, you made things worse by making it known to Hideyoshi, in one way or another what their true intentions were. Masamune loved you for your playful nature and Mitsuhide thought that your skills could be put to better use (don’t tell Hideyoshi or he’ll literally lose his mind).

He will say “I love you” as many times as he needs to for you to believe him. He’s the type of man that would say it in the morning and before going to sleep, even if you were having an argument, he always wanted you to remember that he did. Considering that he could die in the battlefield any day, he wanted to make sure that he had absolutely no regrets when it came to you. He would express his love to you in his gestures, with his actions and wait patiently for you to say the same to him, only when you want. He feels it in the way you tease him, the way you touch him.

His kisses are usually tender and soft like a light summer breeze eliciting the faintest shivers in your body. He usually would cradle your face and trace your cheeks or the column of your neck, a pleasant tingling sensation tickling your skin as he poured all his devotion for you in the soft whispers of his lips against yours. When things tend to get a bit more heated between you, he lets his hands roam to hold the small of your back and press your against him, his tongue licking between your lips, coaxing you to open up for him (always the gentleman, he needs to get some sort of permission from you before doing anything, out of fear of overstepping or upsetting you). 

He would often pray to the heavens that you’re tall enough so that he doesn’t have to lean too much to meet your lips. His other hand would either be at your nape or the back of your head, fingers through your hair, the heat of passion taking over him and the taste of you is so irresistible, he doesn’t want to give you the chance to break the kiss. 

He didn’t even blink an eye when you both sat before the Devil King to tell him that your challenge was off. Whether you won or lost, it didn’t really matter. Hideyoshi was the only man you could ever be with and the prospect of even possibly marrying another was not acceptable. Not for you or for Hideyoshi. Nobunaga simply stared at the both of you, seeing how Yoshi sat there, unwavering before his Lord, unaffected by the possible severity of the situation if things were to go south. 

He respects your time and your own space, fully trusting you now that you were knowledgeable enough to know the do and don'ts of the Sengoku Era. He just urges you,.. no, begs you not to stay out late at night unless he, the warlords or any of his retainers are with you. Azuchi was a safe city but there were still ruffians lurking in the night. He didn’t want to take a chance when it came to you.

He gets way too flustered at any public display of affection but he’s a man that gets easily jealous so he likes to make sure that everyone knows that you’re taken. He would usually just walk around while holding your hand, linking your fingers together or with an arm around your shoulders, kissing your temple or your crown. 

He loves sporting the love bites you’ve marked on his skin and doesn’t even try to hide them, even if you both get teased about them, your lover just beaming with happiness and pride. Whenever he feels like your hands are too cold, he would pull you into a bear hug and let you wrap your arm around his waist, under his kimono, so that his body heat and the fabric could help you warm up a bit better.

If you ever thought of pressing a kiss to his neck (which you’ve obviously done before), your lover would chew on his lip out of embarrassment while his cheeks turned into cherry tomatoes. He would obviously try to mask his shyness with a mock angry tone as he calls your name in admonishment. Looking into your eyes, he saw that glint of mirth in you and that beautiful smirk that he would very gladly wipe off once you returned to the castle.

Little gestures he does to express his affection for you and things he loves: he loves brushing your hair and smelling it, he loves biting your cheek playfully whenever you blush. Whenever you’re chilling with him and he starts teasing you, you bite him and he chuckles. He actually loves it when you do.

He absolutely loves sleeping next to you. Period. But especially having you koala-cuddle him because he’s your human heater. Knowing how cold you are by nature, he asked you to light a candle to place it in front of your door (just like when you are feeling down), so that you can both cuddle and sleep together. He doesn’t like to be intrusive and invite himself into your bed, although he does, on occasion because a relationship goes both ways and it would be wrong just to rely on you to initiate things. The most important thing was consent. As long as he had that, nothing else mattered.

Oh boy, if he wakes up with morning wood, Yoshi gets flustered as hell, especially if you’re awake. He’d excuse himself with the most boyish and embarrassed chuckle and rush out of your room or to his bathroom (depending on where you were both sleeping). If you were lucky enough to be in his room, you would hear a symphony of unadulterated moans and muffled grunts that only made you wonder what the future held for you when you became even more intimate with one another.

Sometimes, when you’re lying beneath him, and let him shower you with kisses and love bites, he worships you as he is completely devoted to you, whispers against your skin, over and over again.

“I want to make you mine, I want you to be mine, I want to claim you and let everyone know that you have chosen me to be your lover, to be your partner, to be the one you share everything with. As much as I would’ve hated to admit it before, I don’t feel an ounce of remorse for what I have discovered in you. I love you… You are my everything and nobody could ever change that. Whether you decide to stay in Azuchi or return to your time…  I’ll always be with you. Take me with you.”

[doki-doki-imagines]

Hi could i please request a matchup for ikesen and one piece (to be matched up with male)😊☺️ I am an infp aries, i am 5'8 and am athletically built. I love nature, reading, gyming, cooking, eating, sleeping, watching conspiracies and true crime. I am a forgive and forget type person, very easy going, i can be aloof, a bit of a pessimist at times, stubborn and very shy especially at first, but most my friends describe me as goofy, overly honest, sarcastic, kind, loyal and a good listener. Thanx❤

Your Ikemen Sengoku matchup is...

Yukimura Sanada

-He loves the fact that he can train with you! 

-He has to admit that he has a thing for athletic bodies...

-Yukimura isn’t really good with theories and cospirancies, mostly because Shingen takes care of them, but since one day he will take Shingen’s palce, he’ll gladly listen to them with you.

-Like, Saturday night is “Conspirancies night” with Shingen as the narrator and you two listening.

-Yukimura loves your easy-going and goofy side, when you are like that he only wants to kiss all over your face.

-He is stubborn and he needs an equally stubborn partner to put him in his place at times.

Your One Piece matchup is...  

Zoro Roronoa

-You won’t be able to count on your fingers how many times you napped together.

-Maybe Zoro won’t make you train with him, but he’ll gladly jog with you.

-You wanna listen about crimes? He is a pirate, between what he has done and what he witnessed, you’ll have stories to listen for years to come.

-He feels weak when you get shy, but I likes even more your sarcastic side.

-Zoro also appreciates that you are loyal, I don’t think he could have a relationship with a liar. 

-Like for the previous guy, Zoro has a thing for people with an athletic body.

[00fabulous]

Matchup trade

trade with @kamesama

Your ikesen matchup is...

Hideyoshi!

-Hideyoshi is a sweet man, that makes you smile when grumpy and relax when irritated.

-He knows his way with words, so when your mood changes in an unpredictable way he'll be able to discuss with you without making the possible argument escalate.

-He is the right-hand man of Nobunaga and works all day with men that tend to be pretty nasty not only with words; Hideyoshi won't be easily triggered by your bluntness or harshness.

-Also, having an honest partner? It's Hideyoshi's dream. He's often surrounded by lies and deception, he needs at least at home, to feel safe.

-You're responsible most of the time and that is a big relief for Hideyoshi. He already has to mother half of the Azuchi castle residents, he doesn't need another person to worry about 24h/24h.

-BUT. But, that doesn't mean he dislikes to take care of you, those few times you're not responsible he gladly helps you.

-Hideyoshi knows that communication is a must in a relationship, even if he isn't the best at it, he'll try to get better.

-The fact that you are so expressive is another trait that Hideyoshi adores. Seeing you excited is the cutest thing and he wishes for those moments to last forever.

-Hideyoshi enjoys nighttime like you, it's a good moment to relax and talk.

-It's known that Hideyoshi has very little time to dedicate to others, so he tries to plan something special every time he is with you.

-You are curious, so he tries to spend his special time with you bringing in new activities you may be interested at the moment.

-May sneak a peek at your writings...

-He knows he shouldn't but it is so tempting!

-Hideyoshi is very supportive of your passions. He's always excited to read your new works or admire your drawings.

-Since you like nice views, a pollution-free Japan is what you are searching for.

-Hideyoshi likes to take you to those beautiful cherry blossom streets.

-He never experienced being a small spoon, but he has to admit that it isn't so bad...

-Hideyoshi was shocked the first time you bit him out of the blue, you'll have to tell him it's a sign of affection! He'll eventually grow fond of them.

-In general I think his sweet and caring side will make you softer and open up more. The fact that he is a responsible guy is good because it means you won't have to babysit him. Your intelligence and the fact that you're responsible too will make him loosen up and relax. -So for me is a win-win relationship.

YIEEE PLATONIC MATCHUPS. Anyone who has had the misfortune to hear me mention that word, will know that I’m the biggest hoe for friendships and family stuff. So this makes me so happy 🥺🥺🥺 I can’t. Thank you sm for doing this, and remember to take care of yourself!

Personality: ENTP-T/Aquarius. I tend to be very stubborn, argumentative, and blunt, but I try to tone it down around my loved ones. I’m open minded, hardworking and passionate about the things I love, and I never shy away from a challenge. In true ENTP fashion, I’m arrogant, but aware of my own faults. I’m quite clever, but I start doubting my abilities pretty quickly.

How I act around friends: If you’re a person I like and I’ve known you for long enough to be comfortable around you, I’m a high-calibre crackhead, and a bit overbearing with my mother hen attitude. My nickname for you, depending on your comfort levels, is either an insult or some tooth-rottingly sweet name. If I haven’t known you for too long, I’m bound to be a bit more careful with my words as I’m afraid I’ll fuck smth up and make you feel uncomfortable. It takes me a long long time to be certain that you won’t drop your bags and run away after I’ve made one tiny mistake. If you’re someone that I don’t like, I’ll be the epitome of sass and smartass, but that’s only if you’re amusing enough (god I sound like a dick). Strangely enough, I’ve often come to like people like that—even becoming close friends with them—who aren’t afraid to retaliate. I like some mental spar here and there. If you don’t get upset or smth, I’ll just ignore you and be civil (unless you’re scum).

Hobbies/Interests: Dancing, baking, English literature (but really any literature), debate, history, sports.... I have too many interests and hobbies to the point of losing sight of all of them. Due to that, I have a lot of surface knowledge, so I’m pretty much a jack of all traits master on none. I’m eager to learn more things, so I don’t mind if a friend doesn’t share too many hobbies with me. Me and my best friends pretty much share none.

Pet Peeves/Things I need in a relationship: I just mentioned that me and my best friend don’t really have a common interest, but we’re able to comfortable talk about everything. It doesn’t always have to be deep talk/intellectual stuff (tho I really really really like some intellectual convos), but I need to be able to talk with you if we’re friends.

Beyond that, I’ll also need you to tell me your honest opinions, and whether anything that I do makes you uncomfortable. Communication is vv important to me.

I hope that’s enough info for you to work with. You know where to find me if you’ve got any questions 💜💜💜 take care sweets!

FUCKING SAME i’m not saying that i would rather be in a found family with everyone rather than date a, or several, warlords,, but i would rather be in a found family with everyone. it is literally my favorite shit ever

(sorry if this doesn’t fit your liking!)

i match you with. . .

— nobunaga!

you were extremely snippy with nobunaga when you first met. the moment he stepped out of the burning temple was where he, one of the great unifiers of japan, was free game to you.

you did not take kindly to him practically kidnapping you (although you had no place to stay, but hey, consent was important) which, may have led a blade to your throat in courtesy of hideyoshi, but (un)fortunately, nobunaga told him to stand down. which he did, but not without glueing a dirty look on you the entire way back.

and such continues. you were completely blunt with your feelings of him dragging you to the battlefield (it being absolute refusal). yet here you are, in front of the burning castle as its occupants spilled out.

the words you said to him, you’ve forgotten, but it was enough to render him silent. something about the distant, detached, perhaps even melancholic look in his eyes made you flinch.

and as the days progressed, it continued to haunt you. not only that, but also the news that nobunaga’s shoulder was injured from protecting you.

. . .well, maybe you went too far—

even if your respect was low enough that you didn’t care how he felt—it was still good to keep him in good terms. you didn’t want the guy in control of like the biggest clan to be iffed with you.

so you came to him in his tenshu that night. both to thank him, and apologize to him if you said something wrong.

in response, he. . .laughed?? seeing your face, equal parts irritated and confused, he bared a fiery grin, “you’ve been prudent and called me names this entire time, yet you’re apologizing if you made me uncomfortable?”

“yeah, what about it?”

your expression was now full on irritated, and he laughed again, a booming voice that echoed through the night, “no one’s ever treated me as such. you’re an interesting one, fireball.”

“can’t say the same to you. you remind me of a middle school boy who has a ‘holier than thou’ complex, except this time you’d be arrested for committing warcrimes.”

honestly you stayed not by the classic definition of “he was interesting”, but more so “the AUDACITY of this bastard. tf is he up to nexti Have to see”

on the nickname scale, definitely jabbing him in the guts deal! ofc, he’d prefer you to not use such burning nicknames in the presence of important figures, but you’ve managed your way through... backhanded and subtle ones. it’s something he picks up, and silently view as a challenge.

he’d enjoy talking about any and all interests, no matter how experted you are at those. cause even if you’re average at it, it’s all to widen his views and he enjoys hearing about things like that, even if some times he might not understand, so the fact that you know so much is definitely a topic fuel for weeks on end.

he’d also enjoy having deep convos/debating with you. not many people talk back to him, so to have someone who does and can give him new perspectives is refreshing indeed, no matter how stubborn he is.

i feel like nobunaga, as outspoken with his thoughts he may be, is... emotionally stunted, so to say. he isn’t at all going to hold back on his feelings and opinions on if you’re crossing a line or making him uncomfortable, but with more trivial matters, he might not pick up on the cues to atcually speak up his mind, so you might have to ask him first (which then would go smooth sailing i feel, cause again, he is very outspoken)

honestly? all in all, you know those friendships where you constantly but heads with each other and you seem like you cannot stand each other (you can’t), but if worst comes to it, you’ve got each others’ backs? an “i’ll kill you and i’d kill For you” type deal. sort of more rivalry siblings in a way? yeah, that.

[letskidnapsenpai]

Hi! Could I request an Ikesen or Obey me matchup, please? 😊 You don't have to do this if you don't want to!

I'm an INTP-T, Aquarius. I'm 5'4 (my friends are all really tall which annoys me to no end) and use the pronouns she/they and have really frizzy and unmanageable brown (borderline black) hair that reaches around halfway down my back which I usually keep in a ponytail and really dark brown eyes. I also wear glasses but I usually just forget to put them on half of the time 😅

My day never starts without either a cup of coffee or at least some lemon/peach tea and I love music, reading ('The tell tale heart' by Edgar Allen Poe is one of my favourites), animals and art and plan on majoring in marine biology. My favourite colour is brown just because of how warm it is and my sleep schedule is non existent. 

I can be really insensitive sometimes by accident and have a really messed up sense of humor which is usually compiled of dark humor or self depreciative jokes. I'm generally very introverted, initially coming off as cold and/ or intimidating to people when they first meet me according to my friends so it takes a while for me to open up to people but I'm basically like a four year old on a sugar high once you get to know me. A smart and slightly emotionally detached four year old but a four year old with no impulse control or sense of self preservation on a sugar high nonetheless. 

I struggle with self-love but I'll be damned if I ever let anyone else think or say anything bad about themselves and I'm really prone to bouts of emotional numbness whenever I get triggered by something like someone yelling at me or a loud noise which leads to me being very distant at times and causing me to struggle with maintaining any kind of relationship (be it platonic, romantic or familial). I'm overly confrontational and swear like a sailor and will not hesitate to call someone out especially when it comes to people I care about.

My love language is physical touch which I think comes from being overly touch starved and I'm clingy and really affectionate, even in public, but get flustered really easily by the littlest things. Like, I cannot handle compliments.

Thank you and make sure to stay safe and take care of yourself! 🥰❤ Also, sorry if this is really long 😅

Hii!💖💫 I matched you with somebody from ikesen, because I felt like it would be better 💖💫 Matching you with someone was really hard, I couldn't choose who to match you with in Ikesen, because you would be awesome with everybody in something, but in the end I picked 💖 I hope it's not too short 🥺💖

My choice for you is... *dice roll* Mitsuhide! And here's why:

• Kitsune boy would tease you for your height, because he, like the other warlords, is giraffe, but little bit of teasing never killed anybody unless you decide to kill him in his sleep for it

• With his straight white hair does he use purple shampoo? and light, golden eyes, you're like perfect opposites when it comes to looks and you make each other's beauty stand out even more

• He'll remaind you to wear your glasses, so you don't go around, bumping into walls or worse, other men

• He probably likes morning tea too, so you two spend your morning in each other's company, drinking tea and talking about your night Mitsuhide's morning voice? I feel like I'm pregnant just from imagining it

• Mitsuhide can probably sing, so he'll either sing or read to you while you fall asleep in his arms

• Another difference between you two is your style, unlike you, he likes cold, light colours you're like Anna and Elza but again, that makes yours beauty stand out more

• He tends to overwork himself, so his sleep schedule is also really bad, but he'll with help if unnamed mom friend try to get you both to rest better, after all, he has to take care of his little mouse

• Something you're both same at is your humor, when you two joke, half of the warlords look at you concerned, Mitsuhide loves your joke and you love to make him laugh

• With Mitsuhide being, well, what he is, your accidentally cold first impression doesn't shock many people, and even less people show when they find out how hyperactive you actually are

• He loves how smart you're, he's so proud of you and he loves showing you off

• Struggles with self love? Don't know her. Mitsuhide can not only have you begging for him in seconds sorry not sorry but he'll also make sure you know how beautiful and perfect to him you are, because he loves you with his whole heart and he'll never let you think something bad about yourself

• He knows everything, so he also knows the real you, so he'll not give up with you even through your distantness and he'll make sure you're okay and everything, no matter what happens

• He'll find your sharp tongue amusing and even more after you scream at somebody for almost hour after that person said something rude about Ranmaru protect that bby

• He'll bathe you in affection, even in public, he doesn't care, he'll treat his lady right no matter who watches

• Prepare to shine red all day long, he's a tease and he'll do anything to make you blush, so you might as well just rename yourself to tomato

[a-very-bored-blogger]

im rlly bored and i just wanna do some stuff so I'M OPENING REQUESTS:

Here are the rules:

I'm very uncomfortable with my writing skills so mostly these are match - ups and headcanons only.

I do not do NSFW, Omega-Alphas, mermaid AUs (cause I'm honestly very unfamiliar with the concept)

(list may be updated in the future)

Other than that, here are the fandoms I'm open to doing:

Hetalia, Ikemen Sengoku, Ikemen Vampire, Attack on Titan, B99, 7 Deadly Sins, Genshin Impact, Avengers, Bungou Stray Dogs, Valorant and Eddsworld

I DON'T DO ANY SHIPS EXCEPT FOR X READERS)

asks can be like for example: 'what kind of music does the marleyan warriors listen to' or smth else like 'takeda shingen x male samurai reader' or something like 'what will the b99 gang be like playing dnd?'

It can be any pronouns and like any AUs except for the ones listed above. Other than that, go wild with your imagination!

[fetchisnotawordgretchen]

Hi, can I request a match up for Ikemen Sengoku please? :D I love playing & listening to music, singing, reading (esp. history, classic lit, fantasy, and mystery), writing, and drawing. I'm detail-oriented, good with numbers and tech. I'm usually quiet/appear cold and distant, and don't show emotions easily. Organized, observant, calm, honest. Rarely judge, treat everybody equally, tend to disregard strict rules/traditions, and don't really care about people's opinions. Thank you so much! :D

Hmmmmm... I am paring you up with... Kenshin Uesugi!

You two would start out being enemies because you two are really similar. But as time goes on romance sparks between you two.

Kenshin is quite cold to most people but when you came along he felt something he hasn't felt in a long time, butterflies. I could also see you two playing with bunnies!

Pet names for you include!

Bunny

Sweetheart

Dear

Beautiful

Butterfly

You two would also go into town, holding hands, and window shop. Kenshin will buy everything you stop to look at. You two would eventually sit together and watch the sunset, he would call the sunset beautiful but he was actually looking at you.

Conversations include!:

"Bunny what are you reading? Ah I see.. you should read with me instead, I promise we'll have more fun reading together rather then you reading alone."

Snuggling positions!:

He would hold you as tight as possible. Sometimes its hard to breathe. But he does this because he's afraid of losing you, your the light of his life that he hasn't had for a while. Kenshin plays with your hair, running his long fingers through it in the process. There's no mistake he loves you.

°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆°☆☆°☆°

Hey! The wonderful person who requested this was @eldureira I hope you are happy with your request! I hope everyone has a great day/afternoon/night!

Match-Ups Survey

Hello, dear friends!

Two months after the start of milestone event, all the match-ups have been written! Plenty new faces appeared around here in the meantime :D Hello! Nice to meet you!

I’ve seen some interest in match-ups becoming a regular segment on this blog. However, I’m saddened to say I can’t go on with them the way they started - it got a little overwhelming by the end. HOWEVER, this does not mean abandoning the idea completely! 

Changes need to be made and I need your help! 

I’ve prepared a very short survey in Google forms. Answers are completely anonymous. Please, do answer it, as it’s the easiest way for me to collect information and see where we’re at.

Yes, whether match-ups will continue depends on you! Do not assume your voice doesn’t matter - it does!

(Also, the very first question is literally whether you’re even interested. Unless you say “yes”, I will assume that the answer is “no”).

Answer Survey Here

Well... That’s about this for this update and I hope to see you soon-ish with the next one! :D  (Also, yes, if you do wish to change something in your form and then submit it again - I do allow for re-matches and matching your OCs. So if you were already matched, you may be interested in this as well).

Keep warm! Lorei

Edit: The survey is closed, thank you so much for your participation! <3 I got a total of 19 replies!

[doki-doki-imagines]

Hope I'm not too late for matchups! Id love an ikesen and bnha one pls❤ Im female, ENFP, short hair+undercut, green eyes, mascular and not very curvy, still fit tho 🍑. Im the friend everyone comes to for advice and im extroverted, dirty minded and relaxed. Im considered the smartest in my class even though I sleep/daydream through most of school. I look intimidating since im a pro swimmer, but my friends know im a walking a meme and a softie. Hobbies include dancing, cooking & weightlifting

Your Ikemen Sengoku matchup is...

Date Masamune

-I see your relationship like the ao3 tag "Friends to Lovers"

-You are both extrovert, dirty minded, fit and relaxed; you are like soulmates!

-You are also clever and that is a big plus for Masamune.

-Cook together! But don't tell him about future dishes if you don't want to create a paradox...

-He loves to hug you tight, most of the time it leads to something else...

Your BnHA matchup is...

Denki Kaminari

-If in the matchup before the tag is "Friends to Lovers" now it is "One sided pining".

-He thinks you are so cool and tries to catch your attention in every way; always failing obviously.

-The fact that he isn't so good at school, makes him think thay he has let changes to be noticed by you.

-He still thanks Mina for making you two meet.

-Gosh, this boy is so sweet, always going to your competitions(when his hero homeworks let him) and praizing everything you cook; a real sweetie.

Matchup

@salwasr

For starters, my preferred pronouns are she/her and i’m heterosexual😗😗😗 Personality- I laugh A LOT, especially if youre someone i like. my sense of humor is very much Gen Z, its 70% memes and tiktok/vine references. Im also the type of person to tease my friends, not a lot but to the point where my friends have nicknames because of me. i have a hard time controlling my face, even though i have natural stoic face, whenever im talking to people, i can’t help but be expressive.I get mad easily but i cool down even quicker. i cant stay mad because i’ll just end up laughing and start making fun of myself. I LOVE HYPING PEOPLE UPPPP, its second nature for me to start immediately complimenting people on the smallest things. im definitely annoying but most people end being used to it so whatever. Annoying as in I do too much not a bad person JUST TO BE CLEAR. i have a strong sense of justice and often act on my feelings. I use my heart to think if that makes sense. i’d rather not hurt peoples feelings to be successful. A lot of the decisions i make are purely based on how i feel instead of the “better choice” its gets me in trouble but it’s also saved me many times so i’m going to stick to that. friends- i feel like this is important because this tells you what kind of people i surround myself with. For starters, most of my friends have my sense of humor. Very memey and aware of trends. Their personalities vary tho. Theyre either like me but less intense or not like me at all. many of my friends are outgoing and social but a lot of them are grumpy. i get along with everyone because i time manage so that i can spend time all of them Interests- definitely important. i don’t have established hobbies but i have things that I’m very interested in. I’m political and very outspoken, i love arguing with people about politics and stuff like that. I usually debate about human rights and discrimination because i feel as though minorities(of all types) are actively compromised. I also love medicine and biology, i like learning about how things work and what makes certain things work and other not work. Researching also makes me very happy, i love just being obsessed with a certain topic for days and putting all my energy into it. Love language- since this is a match up, im guessing this is very important. My love language is definitely Words of Affirmation and Physical Touch. I crave the validation i never received as a child🙈 just hearing what i mean to other people makes me so happy because it makes me feel like im worth something😗😗😗 even if its just teasing, as long as its from a place of affection then ILL GLADLY BE TEASED Physical touch is something i also crave because HHahaAh im touch deprived 😗✌️✌️✌️ What i want in a relationship- i want someone thats similar to me but also different from me. i definitely want someone that shares my views in life, like it can differ but im not interested in arguing about human right with my lover. if someone with different hobbies, tastes, personality and life is fine to me. i love a relationship where the love IS OBVIOUS. for example, when an usually mean person is soft for their lover???? PLEASE I LIVE FOR THAT STUFF. I want a relationship where cuddles are a necessity, LIKE THERES A WEEKLY QUOTA!! i also want someone uhh freaky- you know... someonewhowantsfuckdaily AHHHH MOVING ON- i love when a relationship where the couple feels like even if the whole world is against them, they dont care because they’ll always be there for each other.

.....................

Hello, Love!

I Honestly found it difficult to pick a guy for you, because you’d suit so many of them! But, the one who I believe will compliment you best is Sasuke! (I almost went with Masamune).

Anyways, hope you enjoy! Thank you for the request.

One of the biggest things that made me think of you two is your sense of humor and personal opinions. Sasuke is from the future, much like you, and will understand/cackle at your Gen-z humor. He loves memes as well, and will probably quote them with you and tease the other warlords who don’t understand.

You both ride on Sasuke’s loyal steed, suddenly stopping due to a fallen tree on the pathway. Sasuke pushes up his glasses from his nose, a mischievous look in his eyes. “Road work ahead? I sure hope it does...”

Sasuke is not the most emotional or expressive person, and is often misunderstood. You are the opposite, and you compliment each other perfectly. He acts upon logic and the greater judgement; he would rather not take risks. You, on the other hand, act upon emotions and your own ideals. He is your rock and you help him venture out of his comfort zone. On occasion this may cause conflict, but he will always hear you out and respect your opinion. 

He’s calm, collected, tries his best to understand everything about you, and is extremely patient. He knows you need to be reminded of his love for you, and makes sure to show you in every way he can. From sly compliments, mild teasing, and buying you gifts on certain occasions when he sees something you may enjoy. Out of everything, his favorite way of showing you his feelings is through physical touch. Behind closed doors, he’s always attached to you. You had a long day and want cuddles? He’s already there. He admires how you hype everyone up, and his composure cracks when you give him compliments. Sasuke can’t contain himself around you!

I can see him taking great joy in surprising you after being gone on missions. Sliding soundlessly through the ceiling in your shared room, kissing you deeply after missing you for far too long. As for bedroom things- he’s down for just about anything and has a drive similar to your own. Although, he’d probably feel more comfortable if you initiate first. A true gentleman.

If you’ve had a bad day, or ever just need to talk; he is always there, all of his attention on you. He’ll pull you close in his arms, rocking you gently in his lap as you talk. He’s silent, but you know he is listening. Sasuke will try and give you logical advice when your done (if you want it). He just wants you to be safe and happy at all times. 

 Sasuke may not be the most social, but he definitely tries his best. Anyone you introduce him to he gets along with. He is still good with people, for the most part. If he were to become acquainted with your friends, with the same sense of humor, he would get along with them quite well!

He has a soft spot for you and only you. He is expressionless with everyone but you, and he is only comfortable talking and opening up to you. You are the love of his life, and he can’t imagine anyone better for him.

Other best possible matches: Masamune, Shingen, Kenshin, Kennyo

hi @oikame !! thanks for sending me a selfie matchup, but before I start I just wanted to say that your style is so pretty 🥺🥺

also thank you for adhering to my makeshift rule of including a picture of Gavin in your submission, it’s very much appreciated 💕

for ikesen, I was kind of stuck between Hideyoshi and masamune, but I think that masamune fits your vibe more!

for ikevamp, i had a little bit of trouble, but eventually came to theo after also considering leonardo.

but for mlqc I knew immediately~~ I can visualise you standing next to lucien in my head, and I literally can’t explain it any more than that

hi there. may i have an ikesen matchup? i'm fairly tall with brown hair and hazel eyes. i'm also a scorpio. i love graphic design and was even going to go to school for it until i got into meteorology lmfaoo. i love to bake and sleep. i'm sorta closed off until i get to know you. i'm a big wrestling fan too. i love the color pink. i'm more of an observer, and can tell when people are lying as well. i also wear my heart on my sleeve. thank you in advance, and have a wonderful day~

Getting through my asks very very slowly. Apologies to everyone and thanks so much for your incredible patience!

Wearing your heart on your sleeve while being closed off sounds like a contradictory combination, but you know who else does that? Ieyasu. Porcupine Tokugawa likes to think he’s hiding how much he cares about everyone, but let’s be real, the man has zero poker face. He’s not stupid though; he can see through you as easily as you can see through him. 

He doesn’t really start to warm up to you until the day you find him angrily trashing a batch of medicinal herbs that went moldy because he harvested them just before a week of rain. Obviously in the Sengoku era you don’t have access to weather stations and so on, but your base knowledge is enough that you can help him predict long stretches of hot weather for and preserving medicinal herbs. Then you start making him cute labels for all his jars and pots of salves, tinctures, and treatments. Helping him work (and annoying the hell out of him while you do it) gives you the opportunity to get closer to each other. He even (reluctantly) admits to liking how much taller than him you are, although archery muscles mean he’s more than capable of throwing you over his shoulder and carrying you off when the tension finally snaps.
