Hi can you do bhna if you feel comfortable to write Momo x wolf quirk reader and the reader reader is a bottom (tail stimulation) 👁👄👁👩🏿‍🦲
Shindo x Wolf! Reader
Sorry!!! I don't write female x female!!! I thought it would be rude to just ignore this ask, so i decided to change the character. I hope you don't mind!!! 😥
I actually decided to change the character to Shindo, as tail stimulation just made me think of him lol. This may be pretty short. I er probably imagined reader as more of a neko more than a wolf lmao.
WARNINGS: NSFW, 18+, tail stimulation, dry humping, overstimulation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Second pov*
“Mm, stoppppppp...” You whined. wagging your tail slightly, your ears flattening against your head. Shindo pretends to think about it,
“Hmm...  No.” His hand was stroking the fur on your tail before an idea came to his mind. Slowly, you felt the vibrations on your tail before they started to quicken. A loud moan escaped your mouth, a purr coming out right after.
“Wh-What are you doing...?!”
“Just focus on the pleasure~” Your voice drifted to his ear, your hands hugging around his neck as you clung onto him tighter. You were sat on his lap as his hand went behind you to stimulate your tail. He knew how sensitive your tails and ears were. 
Finding your moans cute, his lips brushed gently across your flattened ears before peppering it with kisses.
“Nya-” Your mewls of pleasure were cut off as his lips desperately captured yours in a loving kiss. Your tongues moved in sync, exploring each others’ mouths. 
“Mn~” Your cunt throbbed as a fire was lit inside you. You couldn’t help it as you continuously humped against Shindo, trying to relieve the ache between your legs. 
“Mm, needy aren’t we?” The tent in his pants continued to grow, the bulge nudging against your clit. A breathy moan escaped you, this felt too good. The stimulation of his hand on your tail, his cock rubbing against your clit.
His other hand reached down, his fingers pressing against your clit through your soiled panties, the vibrations making you yelp. His cock digging into your clit from below and his fingers vibrating against your clit from above. You threw your head back, your toes curling as you continued to grind against him. Shindo thrusted up, his hand gripping onto your tail from support as his cock throbbed, feeling the warmth of your cunt through the cloth. 
“Look at the mess you made.” You eyes were directed down below, your arousal dampening the front of his pants. Each time you moved up, a sting of your arousal clung to his trousers, making it a sticky mess.
A particularly harsh tug on your tail sent you over the edge. Your thighs clamped around his, your nails digging into his skin as you released all over him. The liquid was stained all over the fabric, the warmth washing over his cock. 
“Shit...” Shindo could’ve sworn he nearly came at the sight of you cumming, but he held it in. He wasn’t done yet. 
You were panting, leaning against his chest. The ‘buzz’ of the vibrations were still going as he held onto your tail.
“S-Stoppppp...” You whimpered, arousal pooling again as he continued. He pushed you down onto the sofa, your head pressed against the cushion as he peeled your panties off you. He blew on your cunt sending a shiver down your spine,
“S-Stop, th-that’s embarrassing...!” He paid no mind to your whining, licking a stipe up your cunt. He seemed satisfied, slamming into you right after. Your whole body jolted forward, the force making you clutch onto the cushion. The way he glided into your walls and the pushing and pulling movement sent your mind into a haze. He didn’t even give you time to recover from your last orgasm, immediately pounding into you after. 
Instead of using his vibrations, his hand closed around your tail, yanking it back each time he thrusted in so that your whole body matched his pace.
“N-No...! T-Too much... Y-Yo...!” Your eyes were tearing up at the pleasure, your sensitive tail being pulled each time. And each time he pulled on your tail, your cunt clenched down around his cock, making it harder for him to thrust in. 
“Gonna fuck you until my balls are empty, yeah? Is that okay, baby?” You nodded without comprehending what he said, each tug of your tail sending your mind into a frenzy. 
Shindo pulled you into position after position, emptying his balls all over your face, chest, cunt and legs. It was everywhere. You were covered in his semen after he had finished. Your legs were sore from each position, his cock entering you at different angles, but each time making you see stars. Shindo did feel bad after seeing the state you were in, helping you clean up and feeding you.

Funny minific idea: Momotaro tries to attack Lovekov for stealing his popularity but George, being a true rider fan, knows about his fear of dogs and presents him a picture of one so he’ll bail
Wait, really? Momo is that afraid of dogs? Even a photo will affect him?
Now I know where Hiromu's severe alektrophobia came from...
"Kobu... Kobu kobu...!"
George couldn't help but frown when he heard the distressed, miserable crying of everyone's resident favorite demon. He pocketed the Vistamps he was studying and went to investigate exactly what made the beloved Lovekov cry.
He rounded a corner, and to his surprise, he saw the inner devil being accosted- not by Deadmans, but by a Kamen Rider. Den-O, to be precise. Or rather, one part of him.
George nearly squealed then and there, but the red Imagin started talking, and he did not sound pleased.
"So, you're that little devil that's been making rounds on net, huh?" Momotaros asked, squatting down to Lovekov's height. "Stealing everyone's thunder? Trying to steal my popularity?!" he asked, poking Lovekov's head rather forcefully.
"L-L-Love! Kobu kobu, love love kobu," Lovekov protested, shaking her head and trying to back away, only to find herself trapped against a wall. "Love love..." She put her arms in front of herself in a defensive position.
"Don't think you can just cute your way out of this! Remember this, when it comes to mascots, I'm the number one, from start to finish-"
"Heeeeey wait there a second!" George said, coming out of his hidey-hole, unable to take another moment of Lovekov being bullied, even at the hands of a Kamen Rider.
"Eh? Who the heck are you?!" Momotaros demanded, looking up at him.
"Karizaki George. Pleasure to meet you, Masked Rider Den-O!" George exclaimed in his most fanboyish tone he could muster. "I'm such a huge fan of yours!!" He grabbed Momo's hand and shook it vigorously. "I collected all the figures and the toys and everything! Truly, an honor to meet you, sir!"
"Eh..." Momotaros said, his tone beginning to lighten up. "I like what I'm hearing from ya, pal!" He stood up and put an arm around George. "So, what can I do for ya?"
George took out his phone. "Oh, I wouldn't mind if we, maybe, took a photo together?"
"Oh, don't mind if I do! Anything for a big fan," Momotaros said, clearly flattered by the attention.
"Alright, let me just open the app..." He said, tapping at his phone, pretending to open the camera app when he was saving a certain photograph onto his gallery.
After he did that, he opened the camera app for real and turned it to selfie mode. "Here we go!" He raised the camera to face level. "Ready?"
Momotaros struck a a V-for-Victory pose, and George elected to do the same thing. "Alright... One, two- ah!" He said, trying to look like he was pressing the button for the camera and accidentally pressing the gallery button.
"Yieeeeeeeeh!" Momotaros yelped, jumping a whole foot back, stumbling and hitting the opposite wall before falling on his butt. He let out another high-pitched scream before running away altogether.
"Well now. That takes care of that nuisance. Right, Lovekov?"
Lovekov's cries had turned into peals of laughter. "Love love! Kowai neko!"

Tumblr media

Japanese cat names
In this article, you'll find carefully curated lists of a number of the simplest Japanese pet names for cats and kittens.
One of the foremost fun parts of selecting your kitty’s new name is learning more about the history of cats in Japan, which is both ancient and interesting!
Without further ado, let’s get to the great stuff – the lists of Japanese cat names!
About Japanese Cat Breeds The Japanese Bobtail cat is widely considered to be an ancient purebred cat breed that hails from Japan.
While modern genome analysis suggests the breed can also be influenced by felines from China or Korea, the Japanese claim the breed as their own.
The nearby Kuril Islands even have their cat breed, the Kurilian Bobtail cat.
The Kurilian Bobtail looks strikingly almost like the Japanese Bobtail cat – sufficiently so that researchers suspect a shared ancestor.
About Japanese Cat Names If you're not conversant in the Japanese language, it can feel a touch confusing to navigate initially.
This is because there are three different alphabets wont to write in Japanese: katakana, hiragana, and kanji.
Which alphabet is employed, and whether it's syllabic or symbolic, can affect the Japanese cat names meaning.
If you've got seen equivalent Japanese names meaning cat given different meanings, this is often likely the rationale why.
Short Names are Best Regardless of which alphabet you employ, you'll notice most Japanese cat names are short.
This will add your favor during training since a team of Japanese researchers recently revealed proof that cats can learn and recognize their names.
Picking a brief, percussive name that sounds unlike common commands or other loved one names (including other pets) will help your new kitty learn his or her name quickly.

BNHA Imagine:
Imagine dating Momo Yaoyorozu.
You’re like Tamaki Amajiki and/or Koji Koda, very shy. You begin to have panic attacks when speaking to a large audience. You also tend to get lost easily.
You are very socially awkward, as well as lack much confidence in your own abilities and has low self-esteem. 
You have a fear of people, and that lead to only having one friend in you past, Momo.
Momo is a very intelligent, dedicated person who acts as a natural leader. She is generally very level-headed and calm even in very dangerous situations, but she isn't above falling into a panic.
Momo typically takes adverse situations in stride, like expressing little concern for losing most of her clothing during battle as she knows she can simply make another set. However, this often makes others think of her as an exhibitionist. Momo is somewhat sensitive to vulgarity and rude mannerisms and is constantly frustrated by sexual advancements
~~
Your quirk is called Neko. (You can ignore this if you don’t like it.)
You can change into any feline version of you. Cat, Tiger, Lion, Leopard, Lynx, etc. If it’s part of the feline family, then you shape-shift into it. Also hybrid version of them.
You can also turn people into cats, like a cat version of themselves, with a snap of your fingers.
 Like if the person had brown hair and blue eyes, then the cat version of them would have brown fur and blue eyes.
You also have the abilities that cats have, Run faster than a speeding Olympian, Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, have peripheral vision that is roughly 285 degrees, ability to hear much higher-pitched sounds, you can also judge, with three inches, the location of a sound made three feet away, have sense of smell that is 14 times keener, and of course, always land on your feet.
Your weakness?
Dogs. 
~~
You and Momo have known each other since you guys were kids. Since you get scared of talking to people, she is happy to help talk to them for you.
You always admired her. She was beautiful, smart, strong, and confident.
She was your safe haven.
When situations, like meeting new people, become too much for you, you would hold onto Momo like a scared little kid. 
Momo loves you. You’re so cute and amazing.
Momo loved your attention. When it came to you, her motherly instincts would kick in. She showers kisses all over your face just stop you from overthinking or crying. 
Momo always knows how to calm you down from a panic attack.
She can be a worrywart when it comes to you.
When in public, You two hold hands, mostly so you don’t get lost, and so you don’t have a panic attack.
You always try to give her some form of affection, most of the time you get to shy. Momo would just laugh at your cuteness and meet your kiss halfway.
You also tend to get jealous easily, so when you see someone with your girl, you would hug her and give the person the best death glare you got. In the end, the glare has no effect and just make you more cute, and Momo just tells the person you’re her girlfriends/boyfriend and the person goes away. Momo teases you later too.
(Y/N): “What did I do to deserve you...” (⁄ ⁄>⁄ n ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
Momo: “Nothing, just being you is enough for me.” (≧◡≦) ♡

Yes (BNHA) Chapter 8: Maybe, Somehow
Fic Summary: There’s nothing quite like a first love that cannot love you back. This is a collection of loosely related one-shots about the students of 1A dealing with unrequited love, which begins when people start to notice that Midoriya Izuku might be falling for Todoroki Shouto.
Chapter Summary: To make up for her numerous mistakes in class rep work, Yaoyorozu takes Iida out for burgers. Their meal is interrupted when Iida receives word of his brother being admitted back to the hospital. (IidaMomo; implied one-sided TodoMomo)
Read the chapter on AO3
The 1A classroom was quiet and tidy and almost empty. As much as Iida Tenya liked his classmates and tolerated their rowdy behavior, this was the time of the day that he enjoyed the classroom the most, because he could give his due silent, proper reverence to the room which was pivotal to the growth of many of the heroes he respected.
… or so he tried to tell himself, as his bespectacled eyes befell over the gentle movement of a certain delicate hand that needed to tuck a stray strand of hair behind a delicate ear. He refused to admit that this was his favorite time of the day on his favorite day of the week, just because he and Yaoyorozu Momo-kun tended to meet for class governance related matters at that time.
He also steadfastly refused to admit that he looked forward to that meeting in particular, because Midoriya-kun, Uraraka-kun, and Tsuyu-chan-kun had other things to do, and there was apparently nobody waiting for Yaoyorozu-kun either. In other words, it was just him and her and a pile of hard work. His shoulders tensed in excitement.
“Let’s work hard today,” she told him with a quiet elegance that no other living thing on the face of the earth could produce, and he found it a little harder to refuse his steadfast train of thought then.
He was at least willing to admit that there were many things he liked about Yaoyorozu Momo-kun. For instance, he liked having her as his--no, not just his, Class 1A’s--vice president. She was organized, decisive, serious, cooperative, all those good qualities and more. She was the type of student who separated documents in color-coded plastic files, used page flags and post-its with cute notes and smileys, and tended to use a specific brand of ball point pen with a 0.5mm width to keep her handwriting neat and consistent.
When he commended her for these, she proudly told him that she’d bought her items in a stationery store that she liked, instead of creating them with her quirk. He liked her for that. He liked that she respected the economy.
But that wasn’t all--come on, Iida, surely you realize that it’s anemic to say ‘I like this girl for respecting the economy!’ He liked that she was always poised and presentable that he couldn’t help but take in all the little details about her when they meet like this.
Yes, that was all. He frequently found himself thanking the other anonymous voter who gave her a vote during class elections and thus propelled her to the role of Vice President.
But that meeting, as much as he secretly looked forward to it, was turning out to be not as ideal and as productive as he’d liked. They were assigned by Aizawa-sensei to form a data grid of all the class members’ physical attributes, including compatibilities and incompatibilities with each other, which they should do incognito as part of planning for their next training camp.
However, Yaoyorozu-kun uncharacteristically forgot her share of files in the dorm.
She apologized very profusely, bowing her head so many times that he feared her ponytail would dismantle. Iida reassured her that they could work on it next time, although he knew that this would be a major deviation from their meticulously formed and mutually agreed-upon Gantt Chart. She’d suggested working on it in the common room, but then realized that they couldn’t keep it a secret then, and she apologized once more for her silly idea.
“Please worry no further, Yaoyorozu-kun,” he said, karate-chopping the space in between them in an effort to stop her from bowing her head like the paw of a Maneki-neko. “Let us focus instead on writing our activity summary for the past cultural festival.”
She agreed then, but even that didn’t go as smoothly as Iida expected. Yaoyorozu’s share of reports had small typos riddled here and there, which was frankly concerning because she was also the type of student who tended to edit her work a minimum of three times before submitting them. Iida corrected these quietly on the spot, until he came across a major error in one of them.
He didn’t mean to, but he made a small grumbling noise as he looked over the report in front of him. He saw the ponytail move downward again from the corner of his eye.    
“.. you’re right, I think I made a mistake here,” he heard her say across from him. They were looking over the financial reports from the last school festival--certainly an important, crucial activity that required utmost accuracy and care, but not one that warranted this much distress from the vice-president. “I must have messed up in my calculations. I’m sorry, Iida-kun.”
She sighed very deeply then, and Iida was reminded of how exhausted she appeared since the beginning of their meeting. He didn’t want to acknowledge this, because he had a very annoying inkling of what might have happened to cause this, although Iida didn’t tend to talk about other things with her, for professionalism’s sake.
“Yaoyorozu-kun, I think we need to wrap up today.”
Hearing the tired tone in his voice made her look up. A new glassy sheen covered her onyx eyes. “Oh, but we have so much to do, Iida-kun, we should at least finish the festival paperwork…” She took the report back from him and began to re-do her computations. “I… might have had a little trouble with these, but I can fix all of them now. No need to worry.”
She put on a brave smile for him before she focused on her work, the steely glare of determination back again, and he didn’t have the wherewithal to stop her.
But he wasn’t blind. Seeing the dark circles under her eyes and the lack of the usual glow on her usually dewy skin reminded him of at least twenty terrible injustices in modern society that were slightly less just than the sight before him then.
Yaoyorozu-kun didn’t deserve this turmoil, he thought bitterly to himself. As to why he felt so bitter though, he didn’t want to acknowledge.
Somehow she pressed on, and it took about an hour before they were able to come up with a comprehensive report that passed both Iida and Yaoyorozu standards. To his relief, it seemed that she was able to push whatever was bothering her to the back of her mind, and she was able to smile 10 times in their meeting, with about 2 of them obviously genuine.
Just like that, their meeting for that day was over, but Iida told her that they needed to meet again later in the weekend, perhaps in the library, to work on their remaining assignment together. She nodded quietly as they walked together to the print room to have the final version printed.
“Everything looks to be in order,” said Iida, tapping the sheaf of papers satisfactorily over the counter. Nothing like the sound of a job well done. He raised one arm in salute to the vice president. “It is time for me to pass this to the student council--”
“Iida-kun, I feel terrible about today,” she said, cutting him off mid-karate chop. She rubbed one arm bashfully and kept her eyes to the floor.
“It’s all right, Yaoyorozu-kun! I do understand that anyone may feel overwhelmed and exhausted given the many responsibilities we have in hero training, school work and such. Even an upstanding student such as yourself.”
He didn’t always wish that his way of speaking would be less stiff, but even he felt like cringing when he realized that he called a girl he was comforting ‘an upstanding student’. As if he was channeling Principal Nezu or something.
A bashful smile was on her face as she replied quietly, “Still, it’s no excuse for my mistakes today. I caused you a lot of trouble, Iida-kun.”
“Think no more of it,” he said, a little quieter this time. “I’d… prefer it if you spent a little more time tonight taking care of yourself.”
“Do I look that haggard? Is my skin that hideous, Iida-kun?” she asked, putting one hand to her dewy face in reflex.
“No--of course not--you don’t look hideous, heaven forbid, you are the farthest thing from haggard or hideous, I mean--”
Wait, she was laughing. It was a little weak, but she was laughing. And now she was laughing at him stumble over his words like the fool that he was. “It was a joke, Iida-kun. Thank you for your kind words. I do understand your sentiment, but I was hoping to make things up with you by treating you to food before we head back to the dorms.”
Just the two of us? an insolent part of his mind immediately voiced in his head, resulting in an embarrassed choking sound emerging from his mouth.
“Or are you busy?” asked Yaoyorozu in concern. “Because if you are, I understand. It must have been too brazen of me to assume…”
“Let us food!” proclaimed Iida, already marching to the direction of the exits. Only realizing belatedly that a) he forgot about the student council papers, b) he was leaving Yaoyorozu-kun behind, c) he said something nonsensical, and d) he was a big, square-shaped fool.
Luckily, Yaoyorozu only laughed at his tomfoolery and accompanied him to his tasks without a second thought.
*
While initially Iida worried about her treating him to an upscale restaurant befitting of a refined girl like her, much to his relief, Yaoyorozu had insisted on treating him to burgers. More specifically, the new Mess Burger that opened within campus.
It was perfect. The most important thing, of course, was that the place was within campus, so they would remain within the safe perimeter of the campus. Furthermore, Iida wouldn’t feel too embarrassed about being treated to anything too fancy. Besides, it looked like she was more excited about eating something so middle-class. “I’ve only ever eaten hamburgers when we go to America for vacation,” she said without a hint of boastfulness. “I wonder how local burgers will compare…”
It was comforting to Iida to see that she planned to order a lot. She ordered three types of burgers, three large fries, onion rings, chicken tenders, and a large milkshake. When she turned to him to ask for what he would like, the cashier almost lost his mind. Embarrassed to order anything less than her, for some reason, he loudly declared that he would have exactly the same thing.
“Are you sure?” asked Yaoyorozu in concern, to which he just nodded stubbornly.
And that’s how he ended up halfway through his second burger, trying his hardest not to throw up and wishing that he was wearing sweatpants instead of his starched school uniform slacks. Across from him, Yaoyorozu was delicately eating her way through all of her entrees, a bit of her glow coming back to her.  
“Thank you for accompanying me, Iida-kun. I couldn’t imagine that a locally made American-style hamburger would be so wonderful,” she said brightly.
“Th… think nothing of it,” he said, struggling not to sound like he wanted to throw up. “Is this your first meal of the day?”
She nodded bashfully. “My… appetite hasn’t been the best these past few days. It hasn’t been ideal for my quirk. So I have some catching up to do, to be honest.”
“I see,” said Iida, swallowing a mouthful of meat. He knew about her lack of appetite very well. He had been there during their hero training, after all, and saw how she barely had the will to eat at least one of a mountain of rice balls that Aizawa-sensei was pressuring her to finish.
She had that look of concern on her face once more as she looked at his struggle. “Iida-kun, you don’t have to eat as much as I do… I’m surprised that you ordered so much!”
“No, no, no, it looked too strange that a taller and bigger-built individual such as I would eat less than you! Besides, with the increased amount of physical training that everyone is doing, we could all use the extra calories to build more muscle!”  
Yaoyorozu started laughing. Ah, what a refreshing sound. His stomach suddenly felt like it could manage another five burgers or so. “Please don’t feel pressured by me. If you really can’t finish, we can always bring the leftovers back to the dorm.”
“Ever the sensible one, Yaoyorozu-kun. I do agree--ah, excuse me.” His phone started vibrating in his blazer’s pocket.
The screen showed that his mother was calling. He was suddenly overcome by a sense of apprehension. “Mother,” he said, voice low.
“Tenya.” His mother’s voice sounded strained, as it usually did these days. “I’m sorry for bothering you if you’re busy. But it’s about your brother. Not to alarm you, but today, he…”
Iida nodded and made sounds of affirmation as his mother relayed what happened. “All right… I’ll notify our instructor. I’ll be right there.”
He hung up and met with Yaoyorozu’s worried gaze. He released a breath he didn’t realize he was holding.
“Is… everything all right?”
“They… had to take my older brother to the hospital again.” Iida didn’t like how his voice shook, even if it was subtle. Yaoyorozu’s eyes widened in worry. He tried to gesture vaguely with his hands not to worry, even though he didn’t really understand what his stupid hands were doing. “No, it’s all right. He has a fever, that’s all. My parents are just being extra careful when he has small problems like this. I just… I just need to inform Aizawa-sensei… the hospital’s just a train away, so…”
He said those things to stop her from worrying even though he himself didn’t fully believe in his words. Tensei’s strong, but his spinal injury made him prone to a lot of complications that made Tenya deathly anxious just reading about them. What if it’s sepsis? What if it’s multi-drug resistant this time? What if he goes into shock? Just the thought of it scrambled his thoughts into an unreadable mess.
His fingers felt numb and heavy as he searched for Aizawa-sensei through his contacts. He barely noticed a graceful hand reach out to keep his still.
“Iida-kun,” said Yaoyorozu, bringing him back to reality. “I’ll come with you. Let Aizawa-sensei know.”
His thoughts, which were filled with noise just a millisecond ago, were suddenly stunned into silence. “What?”
“You’re not okay.” She had her own smart phone out and was dialing a different number. “As the vice-president, I have a responsibility to look out for you, class president. Please leave the transportation to me.”
He shook his head vehemently. “No, I can’t possibly ask you…” he began. Suddenly stern, she held out her hand up to keep him from speaking further.
At the other end of the line, he heard Aizawa-sensei’s curt voice, snapping him back once more to reality. Trying not to lose focus, he stammered out the family situation once more, and asked for permission for him and Yaoyorozu to come to the hospital.
“Yaoyorozu too?” asked Aizawa-sensei, a curious undertone to his bored voice apparent. After explaining that she extended her assistance to him, the teacher made a hum of affirmation. “All right. While you’re off campus, you two stick together. You’ll be responsible for her and vice-versa.”
“Understood.” Iida nodded as Aizawa-sensei added a few standard threats of them to not break any laws and to not use their quirks for whatever reason, and to let him know if they were back in the dorms.
After ending the call, he nodded to Yaoyorozu. Within minutes, a stretch limousine belonging to the Yaoyorozu family skidded to a halt in front of the humble burger joint. They stood up and left without a word.
*
Iida tried not to feel too numb or too anxious during their ride on the limo or their walk in the lobby or their ride in the elevators to room 504 in Ward 5A, where his older brother Tensei was admitted for the 3rd time this year. But the smell of antiseptic, the abnormal brightness of the lights, heck, even the shades of white and green and blue that scrubsuits and coats that the doctors and nurses wore made an array of uncomfortable feelings arise in his chest.
It was probably good that Yaoyorozu forced herself there. Somehow hearing her call out to him woke him up and made him aware of how he needed to walk forward and open the door or press the elevator buttons. He probably wouldn’t have made it to Tensei’s room if it weren’t for her.
Somehow, they reached the room in question. Tensei was sitting up on his bed, a little red in the face and a little tired, but he was smiling. “Tenya!”
All the other vital signs on the monitor were stable. Good. All good. Tensei was good. “Onii-san,” he called out. His shoulders sagged in relief.
“Hey now, don’t give me that kind of look. I might just get sicker, you know?” Tensei teased as he reached out to embrace him.
“Is… is that possible?! Are there new studies regarding caregiver stress and prognosis?! Then I shall smile!”
“Tenya, you’re too serious!” Tensei laughed as the younger brother made a weird grunting noise as he bared his teeth to him. And then, an altogether different smile went up his face, as he nudged him playfully. “So… are you going to introduce me to your friend?”
“What…? Oh,” Iida tensed, inwardly cursed his rudeness, inwardly cursed that he did something ridiculous in front of her. “This is my older brother Tensei, the pro hero Ingenium--”
“Former pro-hero,” clarified Tensei. The words still stung, but Iida pressed on.
“And this is my classmate from UA, also our class vice-president, Yaoyorozu-kunnnnnnnn?!?!?!” Iida’s jaw dropped when he turned to the girl in question, who was, for one reason or another, already carrying a large Ming-style vase with various genuine-looking flowers encased within.
Yaoyorozu blinked once, and then blushed furiously at Iida’s flabbergasted expression. “Oh… I apologize, Iida-kun! I thought it was improper of me to visit without bringing a gift for Iida-san, so I took the liberty of making a get-well bouquet with my quirk,” she stammered sheepishly. “They’re plastic flowers, so infection control concerns shouldn’t be a problem…”
Ever proper, Yaoyorozu-kun! Iida already regretted looking at the large plastic bouquet in shock. Behind him, Tensei laughed so hard he started coughing. “It’s fine, Yaoyorozu-kun! Please, pardon my overreaction! Your gift is very much appreciated!!!”
“Really? That’s a relief,” she said, carefully setting down the vase on the floor (it was way too big to be placed on any of the tables). She bowed her head politely in the patient’s direction. “This is the first time we meet. I am Yaoyorozu Momo.”
“Likewise. Please continue taking care of my brother Tenya,” replied Tensei just as courteously. His smile looked too much like the mischievous grin that he gave Tenya right before he teased him relentlessly.
Yaoyorozu nodded. “I’ll give you some time alone, Iida-kun. I’ll wait for you at the lobby.”
“... All right.” Iida watched as she bowed her way out of the room. As soon as the door slammed, he yelped when he felt Tensei’s still-strong hand slap him on the back.
“Tenya-kun, you’re so cool. You didn’t tell me you had a girlfriend~ should I have mom send some red bean rice for you in the dorm?”
The indignation! He gasped in offense at the mere thought of it. “You are -very- mistaken, onii-san! I would never--Yaoyorozu-kun is merely a reliable classmate--I wouldn’t dream of--”
Tensei laughed again, and Tenya grumbled a little bit on how healthy and not-sick he was and he should just go home already if he was feeling so well. “Jokes aside, Tenya, I’m okay. I didn’t need to be in the hospital, but mom insisted and the doctors said it was about time for another executive check-up anyway.”
“But you have a fever--”
“Just a cold. Let’s not talk about what’s wrong with me.” He smiled so brightly it betrayed his illness. Tenya was grateful for the blanket that covered the atrophied legs and engines at the lower half of his strong older brother’s body. “So, Tenya, what’s going on at school?”
Tenya smiled and obliged, telling him about all the fantastic experiences and funny stories of his colleagues in UA. His brother, the very beacon of positivity, looked very genuine as he asked a few questions every now and then, just pausing a few times to let a cough escape from his throat. Tensei mentioned Midoriya, saying that he should keep such a reliable friend around him, and also mentioned that the green-haired boy reminded him very much of a friend of his who was similarly brave and an avid All Might fanboy.
“So… about Yaoyorozu-san,” said Tensei, again with that teasing tone.
Tenya sighed in exasperation. “It’s… impossible, onii-san.”
“What are you talking about? I didn’t say anything.” He merely chucked when Tenya did his odd karate-chopping movements a little more violently than usual. “Seriously, though, Tenya, this is the first time I’ve ever seen you with a girl, and with such a good dynamic between you two to boot. Can’t I feel a little hopeful for you?”
“Brother,” he said, his voice unintentionally dropping a bit.
“Are you holding yourself back again?” Tensei looked up at him expectantly, an enigmatic smile on his face.
Of course he’s holding himself back. Why wouldn’t he hold himself back? There were more important things in his life than his silly, childish crush that Iida Tenya had to worry about. Like being an upstanding UA student. Like being the class leader. Like being a great pro Hero. Like being the next Ingenium.  
Besides… he knew about Yaoyorozu-kun. He knew about how slowly, deftly, she let Todoroki-kun into her heart, watched her work so hard to stand on equal footing next to him for such a long time that Iida felt he was on a completely different stage from them. And he knew that even if he was brave enough to ask, there wasn’t going to be room for him there in her heart, anyway.
Not for him.
“It’s fine,” his older brother’s voice cut through his introspections like broken glass. He was smiling back at him again, a little more apologetic this time. “I didn’t mean to pressure you into it, Tenya. Whether it’s a question or timing or whatever, you know best what to do.”
Timing? Iida blinked slowly at this. Was there really a more appropriate time in the future when he could stop convincing himself that he didn’t only like Yaoyorozu-kun as his vice president? He could only imagine being able to do so after he’s proven himself worthy of being somebody else than the Iida Tenya of that day, who couldn’t even walk up to his brother’s bedside without being guided like a blind man.
And… it was going to be a long journey between this Iida Tenya and that Iida Tenya. He was still so far away from where he wanted to be. He told his brother so.
“Exactly. That’s where we all start, Tenya.” Tensei gave him another comforting smile then. “That’s why I’m telling you now that not all impossible things remain impossible forever. You wouldn’t really know unless you keep moving forward.”
Tensei placed his still-strong arm over Tenya’s shoulder, and gave a reassuring smile. The younger brother touched his hand gratefully.
“Now… go get ‘em, Tiger.” He winked at him then, and Tenya wondered whether they’d kick him out of the hospital for slapping a sick man with the back of his hand.  
*
When he went down to the lobby, Yaoyorozu was speaking to someone on her phone. She met his eyes briefly, smiled politely, and told the other person on the line, “Iida-kun’s here. We’ll go home in a bit. See you soon, Kyoka.”
She hung up the phone and smiled up at him warmly. The meal they had about an hour ago did her well, and the beautiful glow on her skin was back and ever radiant. “Iida-kun, you’re back!” She tilted his head at him the next moment in curiosity. “… what’s wrong?”
Iida straightened his mouth, only realizing then that he must have had a ridiculous expression on his face. Tensei’s go get ‘em Tiger~ echoed in his brain as he tried to avoid Yaoyorozu’s doe eyes. Ah, stupid onii-san and his silly jokes! “It’s nothing,” he supplied weakly.
The vice president blinked curiously at him. “Is there anything wrong with Iida Tensei-san?”
“Oh, no, on the contrary, he’s annoyingly risible,” said Iida. When Yaoyorozu looked at him questioningly once more, he elaborated, “He… just gave me things to think about. Like… timing.”
“... timing?”
“... yes,” he answered, suddenly finding it hard to not look into her eyes. He noticed this long ago during the earliest days of school, but once again he was reminded that they were a shade of onyx that was exquisite, and he’d like to spend more time staring into them, if he could. But…
He stared at the shadows under his eyes. Felt the exhaustion that she tried to hide from plain view. It’s only been a week since ‘then’, he knew, and he decided that it was more honorable to wait. “… the timing of his antibiotics,” he said lamely, after some introspection.
“... oh!” Yaoyorozu was suddenly nodding fervently. “That is a very important point of discussion. You know, I’ve studied about the chemical structure of antibiotics, thinking that it may be useful during rescue operations, and…”
She practically bounced as they made their way back to her family’s limousine. He listened to her quite contentedly as she spoke about the intricacies and controversies about antibiotic use. It wasn’t long before they reached the dorm and he sated everyone’s questions about his brother, and it wasn’t long before he was saying “good night and thank you” to Yaoyorozu-kun, who gently told him the same thing with her wonderful voice.
He could listen to her voice forever, he decided, and he decided then that it was something worth waiting for.

About Kouta Takahashi
Birthday: May 5th Zodiac: Taurus Looks: Short red hair, one side being shorter than the other. Deep red eyes. Muscular. Scars on his left cheek, shoulder, and forearm. Scar on his chest on the right side, almost like a hole. Red car ears from the top of his head, and a tail that he can make appear or disappear. Nails are kept clean and polished.
Hobbies: Guitar (Uses his claw as a pick), rock/mountain climbing, throwing knives.
Homelife/Past: Father died when he was 8 years old. After his death his mother took him to America, she was abusive and forbid him from being a Hero due to her PTSD with his father dying in a mission. When he was 10 he was forced into a cult with his mother in which they sealed a cat demon inside of him. In addition to his regular quirk he can now use the demon to give him exceptional strength, when he uses him a red aura will appear around him, and his eyes glow. When he was 12 he was rescued from the cult by social services and placed with a foster home for a year. They were kind, and he was able to do some much needed emotional healing which was made even more prominent when he was taken in by his grandparents on his dad's side moving him back to Japan. They encouraged his dream to become a hero so he could help others, and ensure their happiness. He trained with Yumi Usagiyama the #5 Pro Hero for 2 years. After his grandparents passed away Yumi refused to let him be in an orphanage and promptly contacted Aizawa, who took Kouta in and got him in UA being impressed with his ability. Kouta has a sister around his age, but after his father died he is not sure where she went as his mother did not take her with them to Japan. Her name is Ami. (Ah-Mee).
Personality: A major flirt, loves to make people blush. He can be sarcastic and blunt as well, but doesn't like to hurt people, so he often will word things differently if he feels it comes off as an insult or attack. Loves to nap, and can nap just about anywhere. He also has a habit of calling people by their first name from being in America for so long, a habit he doesn't care to break now that he's in Japan again.
Quirk: Called "Neko." he has the characteristics of a cat, but he can grow his claws at will, and they are as strong as steel. He can grow them as long as his body, and has trained excessively to be strong enough to handle them at any size. He also can climb just about anything, and is agile. Additional: Because of the Demon named Zu inside of him he can tap into his energy and use him to be stronger, when he does this he almost glows red all over including his eyes.
Favorites: --- Food: Tempura Shrimp Drink: Frozen Matcha Color: White and Red Candy: Honeycomb Lollipops, and enjoys just regular fresh honeycomb as well. Scent: Lavender and Honey Pro Hero: Yumi Usagiyama (Rabbit Hero: Mirko), but also admires Emi Fukukado (Ms. Joke) for her unique fighting style.
How he feels about each classmate. Katsuki Bakugou: Thinks his quirk is cool, but admits he wouldn't want to have it because it's so destructive, and comments that he could be dangerous to civilians if he doesn't train hard enough. Thinks hes a loud mouth, and underneath his tough boy exterior is a sad boy. Immediately thinks he has a crush on Izuku when he sees how they interact, especially when Kouta doesn't understand the "hatred" he has for the green haired boy. Comments often "There he goes denying his sexuality again." Also thinks him wanting to be a Hero simply to be "#1" is stupid.
Izuku Midoriya: Thinks he's too nice for his own good. Also thinks Izuku does like Katsuki because why else would he still try so hard to be his friend after all this time, not to mention he notices there are 10x as many notes on Katsuki in his hero notebook any even All Might!
Yuga Aoyama: Honestly thinks he's kind of annoying, and can't seem to find a way that his quirk is useful. He doesn't say this because he notices the boy is very sensitive.
Mina Ashido: She's she's downright adorable. Loves her quirk, and often makes positive remarks on her performance in Hero Studies.
Tsuyu Asui: Loves that she too is a aspiring hero with Animal Characteristics. Thinks her voice is cute.
Tenya Ida: Thinks he's a bit uptight, but admires him for his courage and determination.
Ochaco Uraraka: Thinks shes funny, and charming. Can obviously see she has a crush on Izuku, but doesn't make a comment on it since he's fairly certain Izuku and Katsuki have feelings for each other as well. Complicated. Feels bad for her for liking Izuku. Thinks her quirk is interesting.
Mashirao Ojiro: Thinks he's pretty cool. Invites him to go rock climbing with him often.
Denki Kaminari: Encourages Denki to train to control shooting out his quirk from his body. States it would be very useful in taking down dangerous enemies from afar. Thinks he's funny and might be hiding behind humour that he's depressed.
Eijiro Kirishima: Thinks his quirk is badass. Calls him a straight up "Tank". Invites him usually when he goes rock climbing as well. They get along well.
Koji Koda: Doesn't think much of him. Koji never talks to anyone but animals. Kouta one times confronts him and asks him if he can talk to the Demon inside him or not since he's a cat. and Koji nervously nods a yes, but wouldn't elaborate on what his demon would say. Koji is slightly scared of Kouta because of the demon, but Kouta assures him he has no control over him... anymore.
Rikido Sato: Thinks he's okay, but they rarely talk even in class or the dorms.
Mezo Shoji: Thinks his quirk is interesting, and they get along okay in school.
Kyoka Jiro: Thinks she could be a Super Spy with her quirk. Often getting into shenanigan's with her as he tries to get her to go spying with him.
Fumikage Tokoyami: Calls him Fumi-Kun much to his annoyance. Kouta makes references to his quirk and says it reminds him of his demon but his is out and about trying to control him when it's dark.
Shoto Todoroki: Immediately Kouta finds himself attracted to him. He makes flirty remarks, and often tries to get Shoto to hang out with him and others. Shoto's monotone voice and face often makes Kouta more determined to show emotion. Reminding him of himself when he was younger and troubled. Kouta later really hates Shoto's father.
Toru Hagakure: Kouta also comments on how useful Toru would be in spying purposes, and a key element to a Hero Team, he doesn't mention because of his demon he can see the outline of her body, and facial features because of her aura... He lets it slip one day when he asks if it's weird to have such long hair being invisible. One day he is asked who the prettiest girl is in the class and Kouta says "Toru, Duh." Everyone thinks he's joking around but he honestly does think she is the prettiest.
Minoru Mineta: Thinks theres a fine line between being flirty and a downright pervert. Doesn't like Mineta.
Momo Yaoyorozu: Thinks she is stunning, thinks her quirk is the most useful one he's ever really seen for support, and even strong on it's own. Thinks shes too sweet for her own good as well.
Hitoshi Shinso: Hates that people think his quirk could be villainous and gets along really well with him. Because Shinso is also in the custody of Aizawa - Kouta often refers to him as "Bubby" to annoy him. Sometimes they end up napping together because they both enjoy sleeping.

3-gatsu no lion: chapters 140-142 summaries
I made summaries of chapters 140-142. I actually worked on 132-139 too, but realised the other day that scanlations are already out OTL. If there’s anything I’ve missed, sorry! I’m not completely confident in my Japanese, so take everything with a grain of salt. Summaries under the cut. Merry Christmas, and enjoy!
Chapter 140: Akari and Momo are grocery shopping. They meet the shop owner's cat, Money (I think? possibly Mani, like maneki neko), there. The cat entices them to get corn instead of tomatoes (like they had originally planned). At home, they are all impressed by the corn's taste. Akari is glad she followed Money the 2nd's decision. Money is considered the shopping district's goddess of fortune. Her colour and the pattern are exactly like a maneki neko's. Before the current Money, there was a first generation that belonged to the pharmacist. She would sit on top of the beverage refrigerator and there was a rumour that people would feel better if they had a drink beneath Money.
One day, the Money the 3rd is born and is being offered to someone from the Sangatsu shopping district. The sisters need to discuss this with their grandfather asap. But they lose the drawing and the Third goes to the beauty parlour. Akari and Hina, observing the happiness of the elder women leaving the beauty shop, decide that they want something similar. Something where people can't just buy things but can also talk to each other. Their conversation soon turns to food and what they can offer in their shop. Something like the stand they did during the festival. A stand where they could sell rice flour dumplings and people could buy their grandfather's sweets. That idea sounds really great. Incredibly lovely!
Chapter 141: Akari and Hina are trying Douhua, a sweet tofu dish, and are amazed at how the amani of the cooked peanuts has a gentle fragrance. The rice flour dumplings are not only white and small, but there are pink ones as well! The contrast with the coarse red been paste is super cute. They consider that the rice flour dumplings they sold during the summer festival might have been too big. Smaller ones would have been quicker to ladle. Also, if they break them into small pieces, it will look like more have been put in. Hina immediately messages Chiho to let her know that they've tried it.
During the last week of the summer holidays, they went to visit Chiho. Chiho managed to gain an older sister figure, Rin Yu from Taiwan. It was she who recommended the sweet tofu dish to them.
Hina wonders whether they'll be able to make these sweet peanuts at home. They give it a try, letting the internet guide them. But they find that the peanuts are not easy to peel at all. Akari wasn't able to find a way to peel them more quickly. They plan to just go with the already peeled peanuts for now - which are relatively little compared to the ones that are left. So they get Rei to help them out (by telling him that tonight's dinner is curry). Hina apologises, but Rei doesn't mind this kind of thing at all (Rei tells Momo that she can't eat them because they're raw). The finished peanuts don't end up the way they had imagined at all. Hina figures that it might have been better to use a pressure cooker and Akari is determined to try that out with the remaining peanuts. Hina doubts they'll be able to finish by today, so Rei offers to contact Hayashida-sensei and Shimada. But Akari feels too guilty about asking a teacher and a pro shougi player to do something like this (the caption says: The boy on the right is a pro shougi player as well. lmao). But Rei is certain they'll come flying at the mention of curry.
Chapter 142: Both Shimada and Hayashida receive a message from Rei, asking them to help Akari with peeling peanuts. In exchange, there'll be curry for dinner. Sensei, who has been in bed reading till now, rushes to get to them. He feels grateful that Rei called out to him. Even though Rei will make Shimada visit Akari's home for the first time through this, Hayashida won't think that Rei has done something totally unnecessary at all! Definitely not! Just imagining it makes sensei feel how fitting it seems - Shimada sitting by that house's window. At this rate, Shimada will end up coming and going frequently like Rei. Thinking of being greeted by Shimada makes sensei feel sick. He's bad with these kinds of things - thinking of somebody as special. It feels like heaven and hell at the same time.
On the other hand, Shimada replies that he won't be able to make it because he's currently at Lake Touya to witness the Seiryuu Tournament. Hayashida feels relieved knowing Shimada won't come - and immediately feels ridiculous for it. When he arrives at their house, Akari apologises for having him come on his day off while Rei notes how quick he was. Akari explains what they are doing and mentions that they plan on selling the dish during the fall festival. Sensei is impressed by the sisters' enthusiasm. Rei explains that this place is full of vigour and that they are always facing forward. They're contemplating how to best take over their grandfather's shop. (The sisters determine that the pressure cooker method is the way after all.) Though they may be small things, to them, they are important steps. And Rei wants to support them in whatever they wish to do. Hayashida realises that these girls that don't beg for happiness as well as this boy have their eyes fixed on the future. Life isn't a comedy. Everyone falls and rises by themselves. He thanks Rei for contacting him and looks up ways to peel peanuts. Rei quietly admits that he made a promise to Noguchi.
A few days before, while on the phone with Noguchi: That teacher is no good, Noguchi says. As his former pupil, he feels ashamed. He can't believe he's made to listen to and advise his former teacher on his love problems. Not to mention that Hayashida is not making any progress at all. At this rate, 2-3 years are just going to pass. Rei understands and believes that at worst, it might even be 4-5 years. What's even worse is his rival - to think Shimada 8-dan, the guy sensei admires, would suddenly appear! Sensei has no luck. With every complaint, Noguchi keeps lowering sensei's winning percentage. At the very least, Noguchi wants sensei to put up a fight before he dies (Rei is surprised; so it's definite that sensei will lose!?). Noguchi asks Rei to support sensei when he dies from explosion. By now, sensei is pretty much just a common friend to Noguchi. And even though Rei is still enrolled, he too pretty much feels that way about sensei already.
Remembering their conversation makes Rei laugh, prompting Hayashida to comment that he's being lewd for remembering something and laughing about it. Rei pretends not to have said anything at all.

Shinji x Yuki !
Send a pairing/couple and the numbers. (◕‿◕✿)
Big steps in the relationship !
1. Who made the first move / who kissed who first ? Shinji did, by kissing Yuki and then lying down on his lap like a drunk cat. Then he had to assure him that he wasn’t drunk and he knew exactly what he was doing : claiming his love for his little messenger. Yuki was understandably a bit startled. Especially when Shinji then dragged him with him to sleep on the couch.
2. Who tells their family/friends about their relationship first ? Shinji already told the Vizored about his feelings. And lamented. And complained. And rolled on the floor. They know everything because he can’t help but tell them. As soon as he could, Yuki ran to the 11th division and asked Tomoyo about what he was supposed to do, to feel or to say. Tomoyo had nothing better to do than ask her crazy teammates, almost causing Yuki’s death by blushing. But the ones who were aware of the relationship first were probably the Vizored. It’s a bit hard to tell.
3. What do their family/friends think of their relationship ? Shinji’s bunch of strange persons he calls his friends and family (okay, he calls them his “idiots” but that’s the same) are very happy for him, of course. There are a few comments when they see his choice of partner, of course, and a few advices on how to handle him to a bewildered Yuki. But for the most part, they accept him in their little group. Tomoyo-dono is very happy for her little friend. She even encourages him to be bolder, more daring with Shinji. With lots of.... imaginative words. Yuki tries his best not to listen to her advices. Momo is very happy to see her captain happy, because he’s a good captain (if kinda lazy). She hopes Yuki’s dedication will rub off him a little, and get him to work more. For now, it’s the opposite. She still hopes. As for Yuki’s family, they think that Shinji is barely better than a Hollow. In fact, they would almost be happier to see him with a Hollow because they could slay him and be done with him. Instead, he’s a Vizored, but a captain, so they have to endure his horrible smile and the knowledge that Yuki chose for himself, someone they would never, ever accept.
4. Which couple/family are they closest to ? The Vizored are one big, happy family who gladly incorpores everyone they take a liking too. This includes Akon because Hiyori grabs him and doesn’t let go, Momo who Shinji proudly annonces is his “new daughter”, Kira because Rose wants him to feel loved, and of course, Shinji’s partner Yuki. He takes some time to truly fit with them, and he still kinda thinks they’re totally crazy, but he feels very comfortable with them now.
5. When do they move together ? Where and how ? They start almost as soon as they are together. Yuki starts spending more and more time with his captain-lover, and one day, Shinji just decides to move all his lover’s belongings to his room and make it their shared room. Yuki goes along, of course. Shinji’s place is bigger, full of light, comfortable, and contains, well, Shinji.
6. Who proposes and how ? Shinji. And it was totally decontracted and out of the blue, like “hey, we’ve been together for a while, and I love you. Let’s get married”. Cue a Yuki turning red from head to toe. And since Shinji is a little shit, he’ll invite Yuki’s whole family, just to rub it in their faces that he’s marrying their son / grandson / nephew / scapegoat and there’s nothing they can do about it.
7. Where do they go on their honeymoon ? Do you really think Shinji will hesitate only a little before charging Yuki in his suitcase and heading to the Human World ? There are so many things he can show him ! Even Karakura, because Yuki has never seen Karakura, or the Living World, or anything outside of the Seireitei, really. Later, the world, but for the honeymoon, Karakura is way enough. They have lots of fun running around, Shinji showing Yuki everything he can. Then they invade Kisuke’s shop, crash under his kotatsu, drink his tea and steal a bed. And it’s totally perfect.
Let’s talk about sex~
8. Who has the biggest kink (and what is it) ? Shinji has several, mainly shibari, but he never talks about it in fear of upsetting Yuki, or making him uncomfortable. One day, he mentions bootblacking in conversation with Rose, and immediatly does a double take when he realizes that Yuki is in the room. But Yuki doesn’t seem that afraid, and after a while to digest the information, and when he’s sure to catch Shinji alone, he tells him that he wouldn’t be against trying it, because it’s not a plan to humiliate him. Shinji assures that they don’t have to try, but Yuki insists. Shinji gives him the biggest hug he can muster.
9. Who initiates sex more often ? Shinji. Not that Yuki isn’t interested by sex, despite a few... rocky experiments, but he’s very shy, and can’t fathom why anyone, especially his strong captain, could be interested in his little person. Shinji is very happy to show him that yes, he is.
10. What kink/kinks turn(s) one (or both) of them off ? Everything that includes pain is absolutly forbidden for Yuki. Like, nope. Absolutly not. Shinji isn’t keen on him either, but what turns him off is rather a mix of... signals. Smells, touchs, a word said in a particular word... It’s enough to totally kill the mood.
11. What’s the craziest place they’d have sex ? Shinji’s bed. Yuki wouldn’t want to do it anywhere else. Too audacious, too much danger of being caught. And having sex in a hammock isn’t the best either. So bed it is.
12. Who is more aggressive in bed ? No one. Yuki doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body, including in bed. Shinji does his best to stay gentle with him.
13. How does the other person react when their partner wears something special (boots, lingerie, etc.) ? Yuki becomes aaaaaall red all over, and stammers and hides and stammers more. He’s happy, of course, and very very grateful. He’s just not used to it at. all. Shinji is always very happy, always makes a point to compliment Yuki and tells him how good it looks and how happy he is.
14. Lights on or off ? Half-half. A soft, glowing light, just enough to see the other’s face and smile, not enough to see the scars and marks.
Quirks and habits
15. What are their quirks while sleeping ? Shinji sleeps like a cat. He starts out laying down in an almost normal way, then progressivly starfishes across the whole mattress. Since Yuki sleeps all curled up in a tight little ball (years of sleeping in a hammock don’t help), they fit together quite well. Yuki being a light sleeper, Shinji moving often wakes him up. So he ends up sleeping on top of him. There’s still a risk to be pushed from the bed, but it’s way better like that (and it gets him lots of hugs !)
16. Who is the morning person/night person ? Yuki is a VERY EARLY MORNING person. He’s used to because of his messenger job, for which he has to get up really early. At night, he’s exhausted and crashes into bed. Shinji likes to take his sweet time on mornings, and drag Yuki back in bed with him for a few lazy hours.
17. Who wakes the other one up with kisses ? Yuki sometimes, when he feels happy, but he’d rather let Shinji sleep because if he needs sleep, then the captain needs even more sleep ! That’s logical ! Captains do more than messengers, they need more sleep ! (that explains Shinji’s inordinate amount of naps too.)
18. Who is the romantic one (Valentine’s Day or other) ? ..... Shinji is not romantic AT ALL so Yuki wins by default. Which doesn’t mean anything, because he can’t romance anyone to save his life. That’s not part of a good education, except things like writing poetry to your bethroted. Which Shinji wouldn’t be interested in. So no. No romantic one, really.
19. Who would lead in ballroom dancing ? Shinji. Yuki may have learned to dance as part of his noble upbringing, but Shinji is suprisingly light on his feet and graceful, and he loves to grab Yuki and dance around the furniture in his office.
20. Who is the one to most likely pick the movie they watch ? Shinji because he’s the one who knows about movies. Yuki is always eager to discover those weird stories his captain seems to love (because it means snacks and hot drinks and cuddles with the captain. So good).
21. Who is the one who would pay for dates ? Probably Shinji at first, because he has the money. Now that he earns more, being the capitain’s personnal messenger, Yuki tries to invite him to dates too, but Shinji always refuses because he wants to treat him. The only time when he lets Yuki invite him is for his birthday.
22. Who takes over the beauty/style department ? Depends on the occasion. Shinji takes over for their daily life : finding Yuki better uniforms, helping with his hair and everything... But for special occasions, Yuki takes over and dresses and arranges Shinji’s hair. Because no, captain, you can’t wear a tie with a kimono. Please no.
23. What would they get each other for gifts ? Shinji brings Yuki things from the Living World. It’s easy, because Yuki isn’t used at all to get presents, so even the smallest token makes him happy. But the cuter, the better. He has several cute toys (Pokemon figures and plushes, a few Hello Kitty, a Neko Atsume plush, and even a few Disney toys), nice human clothes that are was comfier than his uniforms, human food... He loves each and every present he gets. Yuki tends to ask Rose for advices on what to buy for his captain-partner. It’s not easy to find, especially music-related gifts, and Yuki doesn’t have lots of money. So when he wants to make Shinji happy, he writes and delivers cute little messages to him. Shinji keeps them in a special folder. When he has enough money, he buys tasteful things. Not to sat that Shinji has bad taste, but Yuki bought him a beautiful kimono, the best coffee he could find, those kinds of things. It makes Shinji really, really, really happy.
24. Who cusses more ? Shinji, Shinji, Shinji, He’s not cursing at Hiyori levels because no one does beside Hiyori, but he still uses his fair amount of curses. Yuki almost never cusses, which makes it way impressive when he does.
25. Who remembers things ? And who forgets the birthdays and anniversaries (and has to be forgiven) ? Both. Yuki doesn’t have lots of dates to remember, so it’s quite easy. Shinji is a bit absent-minded, but he has an habit to take notes on everything that’s at hand : reports, forms, candy wrappers, Rose’s music sheets, Aizen’s novel pages... Most of the time, he can’t find them after five minutes and has to take some more notes.
26. Who is the bigger cuddler ? Shinji, because he loves hugs and cuddles. Yuki does too, but he doesn’t dare disturbing his captain, especially when he’s busy. Luckily for him, Shinji seems to always guess when there’s a huge need of cuddles around.
27. Nicknames for each other ? Yuki absolutly refuses to use Tomoyo’s nickname of “Captain Rack-of-Teeth” under any condition. Shinji is now “Shinji-sama”, and that the extend of what he’s able to use. Shinji calls Yuki by his name, but takes great pleasure into drawling it as much as he can. Yukiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii~.
28. Who decorates the apartment ? Mostly Shinji, because they live in his captain quarters. He brought a lot of things from the Living World, to be more comfortable, surrounded by everything dear to him. Yuki just added small, personnal touches here and there.
29. Who initiates duets ? Shinji. Half of the time, that’s because he’s singing along whatever record is playing at the moment, and he tries to get Yuki to join. Which doesn’t work because Yuki is very shy, and doesn’t know the words anyway. It only works with a few songs they both know, and often needs him to be a bit drunk.
30. What do they do to cheer each other up ? They both send each other happy little messages, sometimes through Yuki, sometimes through others. Shinji puts on loud music, rolls Yuki in a blanket and gives him the sweetest hot chocolate he can make, then hugs the Yuki-roll and cuddles him. Yuki’s method is more or less the same because he learnt it from him. It involves cuddling Shini, dragging him outside to watch the fishes in the nearest koi pond, asking Rose for a good snack. When they are in bed, they have taken too to cover each other’s scars, with words, signs or drawings in ink.
Daily life
31. Who is more tech-savvy ? Shinji, because he’s the one who knows about all those funny little human devices he brought from the Living World. Yuki is endlessly amazed by everything he can do with them.
32. Who drinks all of the coffee ? Shinji, because Yuki drinks tea. But he drinks looooots of it. His office always smells of coffee, and there’s always a pot brewing for him somewhere.
33. Who does what chores ? The advantage of being a captain of the Gotei 13, is that you get servants to do them for you. Which is good, because Yuki has been raised as a noble, and can’t do them to save his life (okay, he can do basic cleaning and take bloodstains out of everything, but that’s all). Shinji does the chores he likes, like cooking, but that’s all. The rest is taken care of. Even the paperwork, that’s what Aizen is for.
34. Who kills the bugs ? No one ! You don’t kill bugs, you catch them and release them outside ! Or you make Yuki cry. Your pick.
35. Who makes the bed in the mornings ? What is this “bed-making” you’re talking about ? Shinji doesn’t make beds because he loves lounging around and stay in bed in the morning for hours. And takes naps. And loves to drag Yuki with him. Besides, Yuki doesn’t know how to make beds anyway.
36. Who starts getting into holidays way before they should ? Shinji. Holidays means fun and good food and sometimes presents, but above all, friends and fun. So he gets in the mood early, obtaining snacks from Rose, polishing his holidays clothes and decorating everything he can. At first, Yuki doesn’t really understand. For him, holidays are like other days, workdays. Once he stays with Shinji, he starts to understand and gladly follows his lead.
37. Who initiates the couple selfies ? Shinji, of course. He’s the one who owns a camera, and he loves catching Yuki and smushing him against him to take a pic, with goofy smiles or faces. At first, Yuki was startled and a bit afraid, but he very quickly got used to it, and he likes it a lot now.
38. Who always ends up with too much junk food after grocery shopping ? Strangely, Yuki. But that’s not his fault. Can you see how MANY snacks are available in human shops ? Really, he can’t help but want to try them all. Shinji is more than happy to enable him.
39. Who asks to keep the abandoned kitten/puppy they find in the rain ? Shinji tends to keep a lot of abandoned creatures, mainly Yuki and Momo. But honestly, both, because they can’t resist a poor, abandonned kitten, puppy, bird or other animal. They both know very well what it’s like to be lost and lonely.
40. So how many pets, and who rememebers to feed them ? They find a cute little cat in the rain, nothing more than a ball of wet fur with pointy ears and a tail. They bring it home, clean it, feed it, and name it Shizuka. The cat quickly becomes a fixture of Shinji’s office and their home, and proceeds to make his name a total lie, by climbing the curtains, playing with the paperwork, running around at full speed and trying to eat Aizen’s hair. They still both remember to feed him, and he turns into a purring monster as soon as he’s on their lap.
41. Who gets babied when they’re sick ? Both. Shinji takes care of Yuki because he knows Yuki almost never got taken care of, and he loves how happy he looks when he brings him tea, medecine or hugs. Yuki takes care of Shinji because he loves him and wants to make him feel as loved and protected as Shinji usually does.
42. Who brings breakfast to bed ? Yuki likes to surprise Shinji with a warm beverage on cold mornings. The first time he tried, he brought him a cup of tea, and started a panic attack that ended up in tears (Shinji’s and Yuki’s) and needed Rose’s intervention. Now that he knows, he takes great care of bringing him the best coffee he can brew.
43. Who has sole posession of the T.V. remote ? Shinji, because he has possession of the TV too, and Yuki doesn’t know anything about TV or remotes. Besides, Shinji knows how to arrange the sound, and Yuki is quite happy to just cuddle with him.
44. Who comes home drunk at 3am ? Shinji, because he’s always out to party with the other Vizored captains (and sometimes other people too). Yuki stays with him most of the time to walk him home and prevent him from getting lost. But since he falls asleep on the captain halfway through the party, most of the time, Kensei is the one bringing them home.
45. What do they do when they’re away from each other ? Shinji does his captain job... most of the time. He spends time with Rose, Kensei and Hiyori and Kisuke when they visit, throws his office supplies at Aizen’s head, spends time with Momo to help her get back on her feet, lies on his couch and listens to jazz... He’s a very busy captain. Yuki does his messenger job and runs around a lot. He visits Tomoyo at the 11th and Rie in the archives building, and spends time with them. Sometimes, he has to visit his family, but he does is very reluctently, and most of the time, he waits for Shinji to drag him with him as much as possible. When Shinji is away on a mission, he spends all his free time in the 11th division.
46. What are they afraid of ? Now that he’s atuned to his Hollow, Shinji doesn’t fear losing control anymore and see his other part destroy everything he holds dear. Same for Aizen ; now that the former lieutenant-captain-lover-lord-of-hueco-mundo-with-god-complex is chained to his desk with a mountain of paperwork, he’s safe on that side too. The only thing left to fear, beside an angry Hiyori with a sandal, is what the assholes in the Central 46 could decide about them being horrible creatures and whatnot. At least the captain commander is on their side. Yuki fears a lot of things : people stronger than him, Himiko, large dogs, Himiko, storms, Hollows and Himiko. But his deeper fear is for Shinji to somehow get fed up with him and deciding that he doesn’t want him anymore. He’s deathly scared of being left alone once again. Now that he got a taste of what true love, affection and companionship means, he’s not sure he could go back to his former life.
47. How often do they fight ? Never. Not because Yuki is a wimp who covers at the slightest hint of a scream. You’d be surprised at how forceful he can be when something upsets him enough. They never fight because Shinji rather tells Yuki when there’s something wrong, and he’s now an expert at reading when Yuki is angry or sad. So they sit and talk it out, to find a solution. They both had enough unsaid things poisoning their lives for a lifetime or two, and they’d rather not waste a wonderful relationship because of small things blown up until they explode.
48. What would they do if the other one was hurt ? Yuki mostly panics. The captain is hurt, something is very very wrong and what can he do ! But he tries to hide it as best as he can, because it’s not about him, and tries to be as useful as he can. Shinji would raise hell and exact a holy vengeance on the culprit. Someone helps the one who dared hurting his lover, because they are about to get a firsthand taste of hell. Then, hugs and cuddles.
And once they have kids…
49. How many kids ? Momo Maybe they will adopt children once Yuki is feeling better about his life, family, and himself in general. Which means in a very, very long time. They’ll probably go and find cute, orphaned, shinigami children in the Rukongai (or hell even non-shinigami) and bring them to live with them. How many, I don’t know. Maybe a lot, because once he’s better, Yuki will probably want his own family. As Shinji, he loves being surrounded with people, and children are fun and nice, so he’s totally on board.
50. Who is the stricter parent ? Shinji, but not by much. Yuki doesn’t have one strict bone in his body, coming for years of abuse, low self-esteem and naturally meek personnality. Shinji, as a captain, has to be strict sometimes, but he would still be a very permissive parent.
51. Who stays up late helping with homework ? Yuki. Part because he wants to help, and part because Shinji already has a lot of work, even with Aizen doing his paperwork, and he deserves to rest on the evenings.
52. Who likes to take the family out and for what ? Shinji LOVES dragging all his little family to the Living World for a day of fun. Shopping, amusement parks, movies, concerts, cozy little coffee shops... He always plans a nice little schedule for them, full of nice, fun and relaxing activities, and brings them back to Kisuke’s shop for a last cup of tea before heading to bed.

Bookshelf Briefs 3/26/19
Anonymous Noise, Vol. 13 | By Ryoko Fukuyama | Viz Media – I’m not quite sure if the artist is going for “being happy in love damages your creativity” or “being with the wrong guy damages your creativity,” but either way I’m not wild about the fact that Nino is having trouble singing again after her confession to Momo. Yuzu’s forceful kiss is not really helping there, either. That said, it certainly helps keep up the potboiler aspect of this. I was more interested in Kurose and An, as even if she’s clearly a “last-minute pairing” addition, I like her style, and honestly Kurose is better off with her, though we aren’t there yet. Add to that the fact that the volume runs short so we can have another of the author’s early short stories, and it’s only an okay volume. – Sean Gaffney
As Miss Beelzebub Likes, Vol. 5 | By Matoba | Yen Press – We get a lot more of Sacchan in this volume, and that helps explain why the anime expanded her role as well. Clearly she’s more popular as a blushing mess than she is as a violent stoic, and so that’s what we see here, as she clearly likes Astaroth but his playboy tendencies and her self-image issues torpedo any chances. As for Mullin and Beel, anime-watchers will no doubt recognize the cherry blossom chapters, but they’re sweet, and also help to give a bit of backstory to Pandemonium, which is getting to be less “Hell” and more “we’re moving to the next town over” in terms of wars with God. Still as light as a feather, but cute and sweet. – Sean Gaffney
Candy Color Paradox, Vol. 1 | By Isaku Natsume | SuBLime – Onoe is a journalist working for a weekly magazine and he’s less than enthused when he’s assigned to partner with Motoharu Kaburagi, a photographer whom he considers his rival. Worse, it appears that Kaburagi has never even noticed him. When they go out on assignments together, Onoe keeps screwing up and eventually becomes downright incompetent at his job after he realizes he’s attracted to Kaburagi. Kaburagi notices, of course, and somehow finds Onoe’s tsundere-tastic protestations to the contrary endearing, so ends up falling in love with him. The parts of this volume I liked best were the few pages where they’re working together successfully and getting scoops, but now that they’re officially a couple, I’m pretty sure journalism is not going to be the focus. I’ll give it one more volume at least to see how it goes. – Michelle Smith
Log Horizon: The West Wind Brigade, Vol. 11 | By Koyuki and Mamare Touno | Yen Press – “The operation was a success but the patient died” would be a good summary of the final volume of West Wind Brigade, as Kuroe is able to revive and save everyone, but the cost is very high. It’s a surprisingly serious ending to what has been a relatively light-hearted spinoff, so it makes sense that the actual ending is a festival with everyone trying to get Soujirou to take them around. This whole thing taking place in the first five or so volumes of Log Horizon, there’s not really a lot of plot-advancement it can do, though we see Shiro at the end, despairing about Soujirou’s harem and also talking about the nature of the world they’re in. This was fun. – Sean Gaffney
Love in Focus, Vol. 1 | By Yoko Nogiri | Kodansha Comics – I did very much enjoy this volume, for those worried about a “Vol. 1” appearing in Bookshelf Briefs; it’s just I don’t have much to say about it. It’s cute. It reminds me a lot of Shortcake Cake, though the dorm situation is most likely why. Mako is attending a high school far from her home due to its photography club, and bonds with a sullen dark-haired boy with a secret past and her childhood blond-haired friend who “sees her as a sister,” except that’s totally not true. A love triangle is in the works, though as with most of these series the final result is pretty obvious from the get go. It’s only three volumes, though, so I’m happy to read more of it. – Sean Gaffney
Love Massage: Melting Beauty Treatment, Vol. 1 | By Toki Sunazuka | Kodansha Comics (digital only) – Honestly, I don’t know what compelled me to read this. It’s exactly what you would expect, going by the cover. Shiho Sannomiya is a lonely office worker who is surprised when handsome Haruki Toudou shows up when she schedules an in-home massage. She immediately begins sexually fantasizing about him, which makes it awkward when he’s transferred to her workplace. Dreams become reality when they immediately start making out. Various interruptions prevent them from doing the deed, including a note from another female client that leads Shiho to feel foolish for feeling special. But not to fear, for Haruki has immediately fallen in love with her! Everything happens swiftly and with zero depth whatsoever. I shan’t be reading volume two. – Michelle Smith
Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, Vol. 34 | By Shinobu Ohtaka | Viz Media – I avoided reading this for a while as I knew what was coming. Yes, Sinbad has a plan, and that plan involves mind-controlling everyone into being totally fine with being killed and “reborn” in a better world. This unfortunately includes Morgiana, though at least she seems to be fighting it off. It does not include Judar and Harukyu, however, who were too evil to be affected, apparently. And so now they have to go battle Sinbad, which means conquering all the dungeons that he conquered when he was younger. This is pretty much the last arc of this title, so it makes sense that we’re back to dungeon crawling after so long. I do wish Morgiana could be part of it, though. – Sean Gaffney
Skip Beat!, Vol. 42 | By Yoshiki Nakamura | Viz Media – After the last couple of volumes showed Kyoko’s growth as an actress, it makes sense that here we see she has a ways to go. In particular, her concentration is very touch-and-go, and almost loses her the role when she gets distracted. Thank goodness for Moko, then, who saves her butt, though she has to endure a little bit of devotion afterwards. It’s a kickass moment for her, but the cliffhanger worries me—I suspect we will not be seeing the Kyoko/Momo show we’ve all been waiting for. Still, there’s some fantastic acting here from Kyoko, as well as seeing how far an actress will go to win a role. Skip Beat! doesn’t come out as often anymore, but I’m always waiting for it. – Sean Gaffney
Sword Art Online: Girls’ Ops, Vol. 5 | By Neko Nekobyou and Reki Kawahara | Yen Press – This was popular enough to get a second arc, so we get a new character, a complete newbie whose friends seem to enjoy fucking with her because she’s pretty gullible. Fortunately, she runs into our heroines, who help to set things straight. They also run into an old face from SAO… or rather from SAO Progressive, who hasn’t met the main cast here but is very familiar with Kirito and Asuna. And they’re going to need all the help they can get, as they’ve got to take on a new quest that has another group wanting it far more… enough to pay big money for it… or just beat them up for it. This isn’t as sweet and fluffy as it was before, but it’s lots of fun. – Sean Gaffney
Total Eclipse of the Eternal Heart | By Syundei | Seven Seas – Go For It, Nakamura! was one of my favorite manga released last year, so I was very excited when another of Syundei’s works was licensed. Be warned, though—the two volumes are vastly different in tone. While there are a few adorable and heartwarming moments to be found in Total Eclipse of the Eternal Heart, it is still very much a horror manga. If anything, the incongruity of its charming elements actually contributes to the underlying unease and disquieting mood of a story about serial killings, reincarnation, revenge, and corrupted love. It’s a blood-soaked and disturbing tale, and deliberately so. Admittedly, the dramatic climax does bring the volume to a rather abrupt and somewhat unexpected close, but overall Total Eclipse of the Eternal Heart is horror that is both effective and affective. I very much appreciate the creator’s versatility and sincerely hope to see more of Syundei’s manga translated. – Ash Brown
