#my brain is unsure of settling down with the timeline before any official confirmation but damn seeing tenma in VR would be awesome

[juustozzi]

i have two ideas/au if tenma ever appears in VR

first one. He is like a big brother figuur to haru, he used to babysit him when haru was younger and lets him have days with his new dog (sadly sasuke cannot live forever)

second idea. tenma for some reason becomes the new coach for one of the rival teams and his honestly just trying to get the kids to get rid of the toxic and bad habits they got from their past coach and make the team a safe place for them.

big bro Tenma 🫶 after babysitting haru I can see him still appearing every now and then as a cool older kid (or wherever the timeline would place his age at) who gives important advice for the situation, on purpose or not! and he definitely deserves a new dog!!

a bigass japanese akita was the first one to come to mind, I can't get rid of the idea that she'd be called Kinako... (and if he had a western breed, maybe Arthur?)

also, uh, sharing an idea I got from here because at first my brain read Haru as Unmei and ran with it before I could confirm. but it has a tiiiny reference to VR beta victory gallery so I'm putting it under read more for easy skipping!

yeah so, that one Unmei ref sheet makes it seem like he spent some time in hospital when he was young, so my first thought about VR Tenma was "what if he keeps going to hang out at the hospital and playing soccer with kids stuck there and he brings his dog to the yard sometimes"

(90% of the time drawing this went to figuring out what the heck to do with Tenma's hair lol)
