#mashita satoru headcanon
Note
I've found a few focs where Mashita from Death Mark is portrayed as a yandere, & your headcanons are among the few that are really sweet & enjoyable. Thank you very much! May I request a Mashita x Reader where it's how they met, their first date, & their first kiss?
Oh, hell yes! I’m super happy that you like my portrayal of Mashita! I’ve been wanting to write a long fic with him for a few years now, and the chances of it happening are big, after how much fun I had, and still have, writing my story with Seiji from Spirit Hunter NG <3
Tumblr media
You first met when Yashiki and Mashita went around the park to do their research of the Bee-Killer Shimi-o and they just found you somewhere in the forest, laying down on the grass, peacefully sleeping, for whatever reason.
Yashiki was looking at you weirdly, while Mashita, being in the law enforcement previously and having experience, went by your side and shook you awake - Only to notice, on the side of your neck, the Death Mark burnt into your skin.
So you were a victim too.
As Mashita called out his partner’s name, pointing out the problem, you fluttered your eyes open and looked up at the man touching you.
For a split second, you locked contact, and Satoru couldn’t help but admire those beautiful fawn eyes that even while tired, looking so innocent - And then, when you realised what was going on, you let out a gasp of realisation and leapt out of there, hiding behind a tree, farther away, barely brave enough to peek from behind it.
The two men tried to call out to you to calm down and explain the situation... But how could you believe two mental guys, in the middle of the forest, talking gibberish about ghosts and curses that would kill you?
Instead, you asked them to go back so you could run the hell away from there, but the brunet man let out a phone number and an address on a slip of paper and put it in a tree, telling you to go to him if you lose your memory or see the mark on your neck - And then, he took his friend and went deeper into the forest.
Relieved, you picked up your bag and the slip of paper and got out of there as soon as possible, ordering a pizza and drinking some hot chocolate to calm yourself down from the awful experience you just had.
The first strike was that you forgot the exact address you were staying at, though the muscle memory and inertia brought you to your home without realising.
The next was the next morning when you went to brush your teeth and saw the awful mark... And the third was that you had no idea where you worked or what were you supposed to do during the day.
Much to your anxiety, you went to the address given by that man and it brought you to a pretty basic apartment complex and you rang the bell - Thankfully, the man in cause answered rather quickly, and with a smug half-smile, he let you in and guided you to the living room where he treated you to some coffee and went to sit on the couch opposite of you.
The fourth strike, that was also the most painful, was when he asked you your name and you opened you mouth to answer, but nothing came out. Just blank. You had no idea what your name was.
And you started freaking out internally, while opening your wallet to look at your ID and telling him your name.
He felt pity, realising you’re in a situation as bad as Yashiki, but he also had that cult to investigate, so he was pretty caught up with two problems at once. Still, he showed you his own mark on his wrist and started telling you about the whole gist with the ghosts and curses and what not.
Then, he asked you why you wanted to kill yourself, which left you confused. “I have an herbs glossary. I usually go to that forest because it has a lot of different flowers so I put them in my glossary, draw them and write medical and botany facts about them.” you explained - To which he pointed out that, whilst you forgot a lot of things about yourself, that detail was something that still remained firm in your brain, so you were still doing well.
Without realising, Satoru protected you during the whole investigation and made sure you were doing alright during all of it - But when you had to go purify the ghost, he firmly told you to stay behind so you wouldn’t be hurt, seeing as the memory loss affected you the most out of them.
However, you soon realised that the two forgot the grass root and honey jar in the car so you sprinted out of the car, following the awful vibes that were guiding you, until you reached them and threw the two items at the ghost that was dangerously close and towering over the two.
The ghost was then purified and the two men let out of sigh of relief - Until Mashita went to you and shook you by the shoulders, frowning and reprimanding you for getting out of the car against his orders, and you could have gone hurt, or worse -
“But you forgot the purifying items! You could have died! What would I do without you?!” that explanation stunned the both of you, and immediately, you stepped away from one another, coughing awkwardly and putting the incident at the back of your minds.
When you went by the Kujo Mansion, the two of you were free of the Death Mark and were ready to leave, not wanting to stay any more in that awful place, though cozy, and apologising to Yashiki, Mashita took you out of there and said he would walk you by your home, under the pretext that he’s a man of the law and has to make sure you are safe.
But then he asked you out for a coffee the next day, in the most leisure and nonchalant way there was... So why wouldn’t you accept?
Your first date was as boringly normal as any date could be, just having a nice and hot coffee, a piece of cake, some nice background music, and just chilling - No ghosts, no curses, absolutely nothing that would threaten your livelihood.
And it was the most enjoyable thing in the world.
Tough he’s not a man of many words, he has some pretty interesting things to narrate, and you enjoyed all of them.
Likewise, he felt at ease hearing even the most boring story that you had to tell him, be that some gossip from your workplace or whatever childhood thing you knew growing up.
After a few more incredibly boring but incredibly fun and relaxing dates, and walks through parks that were definitely not haunted, he walked you home and just before you stepped inside your house, he grabbed your face and pulled you into a kiss, leaving you awestruck and wanting for more.
And the more dates you had, the more you got.
He’s a pragmatic, nihilistic and cynical person, and most of all, he loves teasing you, pinching your cheeks, ruffling your hair, giving you looks and what not, but he never means to hurt you.
He’s not the best with words, so he prefers letting his actions explain how he’s feeling - You never felt as safe, appreciated and loved as when you were with Satoru, feeling his arms around your body as he embraced you and kissed the top of your head.
Also, he loves it when he has his arm around you, pulling you to his side, or when you cling to his arm while walking around the city - It really strokes his ego and he feels like he’s really showing you off to the world, because you’re the best.
