Heres a YHS Family Tree, rather basic but like.. someone please write more this headcanon. One of these headcanons is pretty popular on TikTok but like- consider..
Grian Nightman. Son of Gareth Nightman and Jane Nightman. (kinda ironic considering his name means 'sun' but whatever)
And then I add Pearl being the younger sister. Because I KNOW theres a lot of big sister Pearl truthing but I can’t let go of chaotic little sister Pearl sorry!
Now I’ve seen that HC before but now we add my side headcanon of Okami and Jane being sisters, making Okami Grian’s auntie and Rowan his uncle.
This makes Silly his cousin ❤️❤️ I love them too
.. I just realised this means Yuki killed Grian’s mum and his uncle and he killed her dad. Oh my god.
Jumping on the Taurtis support bandwagon, I'll give my hot take: Taurtis is the only reason why the series functions. Think about it, Taurtis causes most of the conflict in the series. First, Gareth's wife is killed because of Yuki's jelaousy, causing Gareth to commit suicide in the process. Then the school becomes haunted and Taurtis, Sam, Dom and his friends, and Salex all end up there on a dare and a warning from Ellen. This culminates with Salex dying and the yandere plot finally starting for real. And there's more after this like the gang getting sued for the Toritos buisness, getring evicted from their house, the Yakuza showing up and that plot point with Yuki getting more intense, ending the original YHS with the gang going into the witness protection program. And we all know that Sam's character fully relies on Taurtis for everything, but heck, Grian's character, as great of an actor as he is, gets his most interesting and impactful plot points in YHS because of how he interacts with Taurtis personally and how he tries to protect him from Sam (and the whole Taurtis 2 thing). In fact, Taurtis is so much the life blood of this series that he's the ONLY thing holding Sam and Grian's psyches together, and once he disappears in season 2, (since it's revealed he never died and went away on a vacation to learn more Japanese, good for him my son deserves it), ALL the characters (besides my fave son Dom), get more and more depraived, and the series in Tokyo Soul goes downhill as a whole. I even have a theory that Cthulu got rid of Taurtis because Taurtis was warning Sam about using the Necronomicon and was the only thing holding him back from destroying the universe. Cthulu also worked it so that Sam became so depraved that he did the whole Taurtis clone fiasco and then, when that failed, was so desperate to get him back that he went back in time and destroyed the universe, becoming Ruler of the Universe Boy.
TLDR: Taurtis is the conduit of all life in the series and has ascended to god levels, so when he disappears the universe collapes.
