Some Halloween headcanons for ARR

Dawn Faction

Koga

Gets invited to Halloween parties

Likes that he can attend them without having to wear a suit

He dresses up and covers his face with a mask so people don't recognize him easily

To his annoyance, Toichiro can still recognize him

Asks his maid to pack some candies for the kids who would swing by his house

Kuya

Lets his wings out on full display since people would just think it's his costume

People stare because it looks so realistic (it is real *wink wink*)

Kids would ask to touch it to which he promptly replies, "No"

Kids have to shout to wake him up since he is usually found sleeping on the veranda instead of handing out the treats at Koga's house

Aoi

Goes all out with his cooking to make sure there are a variety of sweets they can hand out

He tries to make Western sweets since it is a Western holiday - he also puts his art skills to use by designing them

Asks Yura to taste test for him. He is grateful to Yura despite his grumbling when Yura asks for more

Also decorates Raccord to give it the Halloween vibe

"Oji-san, lend me a hand!"

Ginnojo

Also packs candies at his shop

Kuro helps him out with the packing

He displays books with spooky stories since they seem to be popular during this time

"Do I really have to wear this?"

Gets this soft look on his face when he hands out treats

Yura

Volunteers to help with packing candies at Raccord since he's got nothing better to do.

Works as the taste tester when Aoi tries to recreate Western sweets.

"Pray, Sir Aoi, this "cookie" tastes good! Can I have some more?"

Eats more than the candies that he packed.

On Halloween, he takes on his child form, dresses up and lines up with the kids to ask for treats.

Twilight Faction

Toichiro

Also gets invited to Halloween parties

Dresses up like a prince

Likes to annoy Koga since he can easily recognize him

Sticks to Koga since these types of parties do not require them to make their rounds

Still as polite as he can usually be when people approach him

Shizuki

Babysits Kogare since Kogare visits on Halloween

Packs candies with Kogare

"Kogare, hide your ears and tail." To which Kogare replies, "But why is Kuya-san allowed to show his wings?!"

The one who hands out the treats at Toichiro's manor since Kogare also makes his rounds to other houses

Kuro

Helps out at Raccord and Kusanagi Books during candy packing

Also joins in on the fun when Aoi has new sweet samples

Performs in front of Raccord and Kusanagi Books on Halloween

He does it for the promotion of their Halloween show later that night

"If you like what you see, watch the show of Lorenzi Circus Troupe tonight and be whisked away to a night filled with mystery!"

Oji

Always seems to be busy 'entertaining' his customers so he barely helps Aoi with packing candies

He thought he could get away with not wearing a costume so the Raccord gang had to force him to wear something for Halloween

"Aoi-chan, 1 pack of candy for the young lady here"

Gaku

Also helps out at Raccord since Yura is there

Makes tiny trinkets like jack-in-the-box and Chinese finger trap and drops them randomly inside the candy packs

Heaps wasabi on top of the sweets so he can eat the same thing as Yura

Holds back his laughter when he sees the children find themselves trapped in the Chinese finger trap.

"Do you need help with that?"

Played the prologue stuff and oops I love them!

Ayakashi: Romance Reborn

N, R and SR card design

ayakashi is a gatcha otome game about cute anime boys that you can date. obviously, i ate that shit up 😌

ayakashi is about a girl, yokais in human form, bad spirits set in meiji or taisho period

the game doesn't update anymore, but it has all the stories fully released, and you can play it for the story, not for the gatcha :>

anyways, kuya is a silly one, i didn't think i would like him at first. he is lazy, not very talkative, prefers not to be involved, and sleeps a lot. honestly, me irl

but his story unexpectedly caught my heart!

(screenshots from ayakashi: romance reborn)

how can i ever compete with these godly designs holy smokes

i turned kuyas existing earing into a purple gem

and his counterpart is.. kuya haha, that one was easy

like all other yokai, he was born in nc world, having bits and pieces of his memories from past life. kuya is tengu yokai, which is more mythical than normal animal (in nc all yokais were animals at their birth). it complicates things just a little, but there is some mythical creatures in nc, so i say it doesn't matter that much.

kuya lives in wood territory, too, but closer to the border with light territory. he enjoys human-made cuisines, and likes reading books. so he often visits villages and cities nearby.

IF SOMEONE HAS THESE CGS, I AM BEGGING YOU ON MY K N E E S TO PM THEM TO ME 😭😭

└── ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ ••✎•• ──────────

≿━━━━༺❀ koga kitamikado ❀༻━━━━≾

✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and an ushi-oni. living life as a half-ayakashi has been hard, especially as one so volatile. you're often found at the piers alone, with a scowl on your face. recently, strange things began to happen around you.

✿ you were 22, while koga was 24. it'd been 8 years since your mother died, and 8 years since koga's parents died. neither of you had quite been the same since, just in different ways.

✿ you'd been out, brooding at the piers, staring at the comings and goings of the ships. your father was... around, somewhere, waiting on an another shipment that was coming in. that was probably why koga was there, to buy whatever was coming in. and via whatever link that you shared, he noticed you and was drawn to talk to you. though you weren't particularly enthused about this fact.

✿ koga didn't really mean to keep showing up in your day-to-day life, but he was a client of your father's and a well-known figure around the capital. and every time your paths crossed he attempted to hold a conversation, which you eventually got tired of rebuking. it didn't take long after that for your onmyoji powers to manifest and his true nature to be revealed.

✿ koga thought you most interesting. something about him was drawn to you, not only due to how lonely you seemed. he didn't like seeing people be lonely in the first place, but you especially he never wanted to see unhappy. to his unfortune, you seemed to always be that. you, admittedly, found koga to be compelling. or at least your soul did. you on the other hand mostly found him increasingly annoying with his attempts to talk to you. that, added with the constant strangeness surrounding you... well, it made you a bit grumpy about him to say the least.

≿━━━━༺❀ kuya ❀༻━━━━≾

✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a futakuchi-onna. your mother had incited a deep seated love for food in you (despite your "small" appetite) which lead to you apprenticing at many restaurants around the capital.

✿ you were 22, as was kuya. you'd been apprenticing at various restaurants around the city for six years, two years prior to that your mother had died. kuya was freeloading at koga's, as expected.

✿ kuya and koga had reservations at a restaurant you were apprenticing at. you were assigned as their chef, which was a problem as you'd recently begun to feel hungry, which is when your ayakashi-form is the most prone to appearing. after several incidents of almost getting caught (and having to stuff your second mouth with a tablecloth), kuya spared you by insisting that they leave.

✿ you weren't actually certain if kuya had picked up on your... strangeness, but when he came by a second time (alone) and asked for you to serve him again you were fairly certain he had. he didn't pry into it though, and simply became a regular at the place and a couple of others you often worked at.

✿ kuya found you weird, mostly. but fascinating for the bits he was actually awake for. you were quiet, didn't try and disturb him, and besides your sometimes odd behaviour you were cute. and maybe he was inexplicably drawn to you, but who's to say to that. kuya was so so nice. you didn't know if he meant to be, but he was. his visits often allowed you to calm down your more base urges in privacy, as he spent most of his time sleeping while visiting, which made your life far more easier than it'd ever been. he truly entered your life at a perfect time.

≿━━━━༺❀ ginnojo ❀༻━━━━≾

✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a nure-onna. you were often found around the city helping around children and animals. you're pretty known around the capital for watching over all the children and protecting them.

✿ you were 26, around the same age as ginnojo would be if he was human. dragon's age so strangely. it'd been over two decades since your mother died.

✿ you'd been organizing a little reading nook in the park, where you would be reading for the younger kids and the older kids could find books that they liked. so, you were scouring every bookstore in the city until eventually you ended up at ginnojo's. it was a very strange visit, as ginnojo was far too nervous to actually talk to you the whole time, but you found the best books there so your search ended in success.

✿ after the first time, you started frequenting his shop as it had the best collection of books you'd come across. that, and they all seemed oddly impervious to all the rain that happened when you happened upon a bad mood. ginnojo however did not get any better at actually talking to you.

✿ ginnojo found you attractive. it was as simple as that. you were an attractive alpha, and he had no idea how to interact with any part of that. not to mention, something about you seemed familiar. he couldn't place it, but he was sure that it was important. that you were important. ginnojo was very cute. he barely said a word to you, but you could tell that at least. and he felt like a kindred spirit in some sense. you couldn't really put your finger on it, so you mostly dismissed it as a crush on a cute omega. but it did nag you a little bit.

≿━━━━༺❀ aoi ❀༻━━━━≾

✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a baku. after your mother's death, you were tasked with her duties to look after the city and their dreams, which made you appear rather lazy, though endearing to the general population.

✿ you were 17 at the time, a year older than aoi. your mother had died exactly a decade prior, while aoi had been in the capital for almost two years.

✿ you were sleeping at the river bank, though really you were "working". aoi came to the same river bank to sketch, noticed you, and decided to sketch you. that night, while you were working again, you happened upon a dream that featured... you. that's how the two of you became aware of each other, but it wasn't until the next day that the two of you actually met at the river bank.

✿ the two of you would often "meet up" at the river, where you would get on with your individual work. the two of you rarely talked, but seeing as you were sleeping most of the time it wasn't a surprise. but it was a nice routine, that neither of you wanted to break.

✿ aoi found you very vexing. but also pretty, which made you a rather effective muse for his work. but you were still asleep almost every time he saw you, which he absolutely hated. at first anyways. weirdly enough, after a while he didn't much mind anymore. something about aoi made his dreams in particular very appealing to you. after the first night, you realized you'd visited his dreams plenty of times before, even for non-nightmare purposes. his subconsciousness drew you to him for some reason.

≿━━━━༺❀ yura ❀༻━━━━≾

✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and an akurojin-no-hi. you were most known for your habit of walking around the city on rainy nights, something you inherited from your mother. you think so, anyways.

✿ you were a mere 20 years old, though often you felt like you were far older. being basically just a living soul, you were extremely close to your past lives. yura was over a thousand, though technically to him you'd already met a long time ago.

✿ you were on one of your usual walks, it was a night and it was raining. everyone who knew you was expecting it. what no one expected, not even you, was the compulsion to head for the mountains. there, you ended up at a temple, and the two twins there saw you and invited you inside. something made you take that offer, even though similar ones had been made a million times before and you'd accepted none.

✿ after that you often ended up at the shrine, sometimes unintentionally, sometimes not. sometimes it wasn't even during a rainy night. regardless, you ever only accepted yura's offers to come inside from the rain.

✿ yura realized right away who you were, someone he had loved so dearly in the past had come back to him. his dear alpha. you didn't recognize him, but just being near you was enough for him, feeling your warm flames. yura felt like home, strangely enough. you felt like you knew him, like you should know him. you concluded that it was your soul who knew him, and that was why you let him invite you inside. so, you let your soul guide you back to him whenever it desired.

Thoughts on: The Dawn Faction

Here it is, my overall thoughts on the Dawn Faction. It's taken me a while to gather my thoughts but here I am.

The Dawn Faction was a good story with a straightforward plot along with some side-plots for each character that gives each character their moment to shine in their own respective stories and even in other stories.

I think the common route for the Dawn faction created a good build-up to whichever story you plan on reading. Like with many common routes, it gives more insight to each character and I think that it did a great job at introducing us to each character as well as the main conflict.

If you want to know my full thoughts on each character, here are the links. Keep in mind they have major spoilers: Koga Kuya Ginnojo Aoi Yura

Out of all of them, Kuya, Aoi, and Yura were my favorites. Mainly because each story, to me, had a lot of character development as well as the story being the forefront of each of the character's driving goals and fears. But if I had to pick one as my all time favorite, it would be...

*drum roll*

Kuya

He is by far my favorite of the Dawn faction because of how multilayered his story is. Who would've guessed that the most apathetic character would end up being one of the most thought out and interesting one out of the five. But really, I appreciated how he isn't afraid to be blunt sometimes and how he handles things through his words and actions.

Next is a tie between Aoi and Yura. Like with Kuya, I enjoyed their stories as well as their character growth. Aoi may be the tsundere of the group but my god, was he so funny sometimes when calling the others out on their behavior. Plus his story probably had the most romance out of all the guys and was very cute. Yura's story was quite dark when you get to know the story behind his curse and that's what drew me in to liking him. As dark as it could be sometimes, the story does create a balance with some heartwarming moments.

Koga comes next and while I do think his story was good, the later half of it kind of ruined it for me with how abrupt the plot changed near the end. I still think his story was good and would still recommend it.

Lastly, Ginnojo's story was disappointing. I had expected more from him because of how much his background played an important role in his story but it left me feeling somewhat bored. The bond they were supposed to share wasn't something I saw form naturally and felt forced. Sadly, his story was my least favorite.

Overall, I think that the Dawn Faction was great. As I said earlier, the overarching plot is pretty straightforward and each character has their role to play in it. I would definitely recommend playing the Dawn Faction first if you plan on playing ayakoi on either mobile or Switch.

KOGA'S SEQUEL SPOILERS :

NEW CHARACTER REVEAL:

@randomf2p @blackmond11

His name is Ibuki, he's one of Kiryu's men, and he's a tanuki raccoon dog!

HE IS A SHAPE SHIFTER!!!

He can disguise himself as anyone, and his powers are not broken by simply saying his real name or seeing him as he really is, like a kitsune.

Rather, it depends on the tanuki himself, meaning that he is free to remain disguised and it doesn't matter whether you recognize him or not!

The Winds of Change

Summary: Alternate end to Koga's route, where Aki's offer is beginning to look a little bit more appealing

A/N: I know there's only like six of you in this fandom, but it's such a masterpiece I can't

Cw: Depression, major character death, spoilers for Koga's route

"I'm not your enemy, Y/N," Aki said firmly. "If you don't believe me, see for yourself." 

He gestured to the scene playing out below you. With a suspicious glance at him, you walked to the edge of the roof, just in time to see Aizen run Koga through with a sword.

"No!" You screamed, and you could have sworn Koga smiled up at you before he collapsed and stopped moving. 

Maybe it was your contract breaking, maybe it was your heart that you'd finally started letting your love for Koga make its way into, but you felt an immense pain and pressure, as the world around you faded.

You became dimly aware of Kuya flying to the roof, and wrapping his arms around you to fly you to somewhere safe, but you could only hear a dull ringing in your ears.

He'd taken you to the hidden shrine. And you'd just laid there curled in on yourself for days on end. You could hear Yura and Gaku trying to get through to you, and see Aoi feeding you something, but you never knew what they were saying.

Eventually, you heard a beautiful drum sound, and the world came clearer to you. Gaku sat in front of you, drumming what you could only assume was a healing song.

"Gaku?" You whispered, and you felt someone practically jump on you and wrap you in a hug.

"Y/N, I was so worried," Nachi whimpered. "It was like you were dead."

"Nachi, you're going to suffocate them," you heard Aoi protest, and Nachi backed away.

"In your previous lifetime, when thou wast our master, thou passed on before the rest of us," Yura said, giving you a soft reassuring smile. "I can only imagine the pain thou must have felt losing someone thine soul was bonded to."

"Koga," you whispered, your chest feeling tight as you tried to hold back tears.

"Aye," Gaku muttered, looking at you with sadness. "But you have to move forward, or the rest of us will lose you again." 

Ginnojo placed a hand on yours. "Live for his memory and his cause, and he will always be with you."

You smiled at all of them gratefully. 

"I think there's some things we need to rethink," you whispered, and watched them all nod solemnly. "Where's Kuya?" You asked, realizing the tengu was nowhere to be seen. 

"We don't know," Aoi looked frustrated and scared all at once. "That lazy tengu  disappeared after getting you to safety."

"He'll return once he is ready, worry not," Yura placed a gentle hand on your shoulder. 

You nodded, and stood up, ignoring the protests of Nachi and Aoi. 

You formed a familiar, and sent the butterfly on its way, before turning to your friends. 

"There's some things we need to talk about."

                                      ….

You stood outside of the shrine, long after the sun had set. Finally, a white egret arrived, followed quickly by the appearance of Aki.

"Well," he raised a single eyebrow at you. 

You held out a hand to him, which he took, giving it a gentle squeeze. Despite everything, his eyes said he still wanted your approval.

"We've all been talking," you said, as firmly as possible. "We're going to join your cause, Aki."
