A3! Main Story: Part 4 - Act 13: Budding Spring - Episode 21: Even Though We're Apart

Member: Sakuma-kun, if you’re gonna stay here, can I ask you to lock up?

Sakuya: Yes! Good work today!

Member: Good work~

[Door closes]

Sakuya: Whew… Once more from the top…

[Door opens]

Head of the theater company: Hm? Sakuma-kun, you’re still here.

Sakuya: H-Hello.

Head of the theater company: Is the sword fight this time really that hard?

Sakuya: No— But sword fights are kind of my weak point, so I wanted to make sure it’s thoroughly polished…

Sakuya: Also, my next role is a young man who works as a bodyguard, so I thought I could also use this as practice for that…

Head of the theater company: So that’s how it is. You really love MANKAI Company.

Sakuya: They’re my family, and my only home.

Head of the theater company: I think I get where you’re coming from.

Head of the theater company: The members of a theater company need to communicate closely, so they feel a little different from other friends.

Head of the theater company: Alright– I’ll practice with you.

Sakuya: Are you sure?

Head of the theater company: If you polish your sword fighting, it’ll be good for our performance too.

Sakuya: Thank you so much! I’ll be in your care!

-

Head of the theater company: By the way, did I ever tell you why I chose you for this guest role?

Sakuya: Hm? No, not really–

Head of the theater company: As an actor, you’re not really the dexterous type, right?

Head of the theater company: But you’ve got a bright, honest soul that made me think you’d suit this role.

Head of the theater company: I guess that’s what they call a sunny personality. That’s why I wanted you to play this role.

Sakuya: A sunny personality…?

Head of the theater company: That’s not really the kinda thing you can evaluate on yourself, is it.

Sakuya: I don’t think it is…

Sakuya: But, when I stand on stage with another theater company, I get to study different acting methods, and learn more about myself as an actor!

Head of the theater company: I’m glad you think so. If you can learn even one thing from this experience, I’d be happy too.

Sakuya: Yes!

-

Sakuya: Whew...

Sakuya: (I think I pushed myself a bit too hard… My legs are turning into jelly.)

Sakuya: (But thanks to someone watching over my practice, I think I improved a lot.)

Sakuya: (I’ll review the video I took later.)

Sakuya: (Oh, I wonder if the others are using the chat?)

Saku has entered the chat tsuzuru: oh. sakuya’s here too UC: Good work today. To Rorr: good curry! Curry: i wanna eat the director’s curry… tsuzuru: you get homesick quick To Rorr: that’s like curry cannibalism! UC: Everyone except Chigasaki is here.

Sakuya: (Seeing everyone talk here relaxes me. I feel like I went back to the dorm.)

tsuzuru: sakuya? are you reading? Saku: Yes!  I’ve been practicing my sword fighting until now! tsuzuru: ohh, that’s our sakuya To Rorr: whom is the performance? tsuzuru: *when this looked so normal i almost let it go Saku: We’re starting tomorrow UC: Do your best. Curry: be careful not to get muscle cramps on your legs Saku: I gotta be careful about that. I’ll get a good massage To Rorr: itaru is rarely ever on UC: He’s probably busy. Unlike the guy I’m accompanying. tsuzuru: still, this app is different from lime, and it feels like we’re all in the same room. it’s pretty good Saku: I thought so, too! Even though we’re apart, I feel like I returned to the dorm To Rorr: this kind of complexion is good too! Curry: *communication?

Can someone tell me where can i read act 12, please? 😭😭😭😔😔😔🌸🌸��

[winter-spark]

My Citron & Aqua card did better than I expected so here's the other fake collab card I did ft. Sora and Sakuya.

I worked so hard on this, I legit got my own screenshots of Destiny Islands from my copy of the game as well as ones from online before I started to make sure the piece was plausible and framed right. So I hope seeing this you at least like the background.

[ciaossu-imagines]

I used ‘smelly candles’ from prompt 15 of day 10 of the event for the spring troupe from A3! I love all these boys so much and hope everyone enjoys the headcanons!

Smelly candles: what’s your absolute favourite scent?

Sakuya has a wide variety of different ‘favourite’ smells, from foods smells like frying bacon and freshly baked bread to fresh smells like clothes fresh from the dyer. He’s really particular about the laundry detergent and dryer sheets he uses – he likes things that advertise themselves as ‘fresh april showers’ or things of the like. He also really likes beach smells, particularly if he gets to experience them in person at the actual beach!

Masumi actually really enjoys more floral scents. He loves the smell of lavender, carnations, violets, and gardenia, to be more specific. He’s also a fan of other scents – freshly baked sweets, artificial vanilla, anything with a slightly sweeter base really.

It’s no surprise, given how much he loves writing and reading both, Tsuzuru’s favourite scents tend to be book related. The slightly vanillic scent of aging paper in old books, the smell of fresh pen ink, the heavy wood smell of sturdy bookshelves, aged leather. They’re all really subtle but fragrant and they all are scents that just make him happy.

Itaru really likes odd smells – freshly baked pizza, a slightly overheating computer, a freshly opened game. There are also weird smells he likes simply because they remind him of video games – laundry detergent always reminds him of retro Nintendo gaming because his bedroom, where he played those games, was right beside the laundry, so he really loves that smell. Wet dog reminds him of zombie games for some reason he can never say, but it’s because it reminds him of those that he loves the smell.

Citron, keeping to his name, does actually like citrus smells, particularly oranges mixed with spices. He’s a fan of real strong smells in general – eucalyptus, mint, jasmine, cedar, and things along those lines.

Chikage’s favourite scents tend to be food-based. As such a fan of spicy foods, he’s come to dearly love the smell of certain spices, especially the really aromatic ones. Even when he looks for cologne, he tends to veer more into the men’s fragrances that have spicy elements, such as cinnamon, clove, or cardamom. He’s a fan of the smell of cardamom both in food smells and fragrances, but also saffron, turmeric, chili pepper, and cumin. He’s also a big fan of garlic, though he understands that a lot of other people might not enjoy the smell of it.

[bambuwu-writes]

tetsuro, omi, guy, tasuku, chikage, and misumi are all [individually] strong enough to pick up almost everyone in mankai. thus, anyone who wants it will get regular pick-upsies!!! everyone loves picking up muku bc hes such a sweet little fella :”)))) def the baby of mankai. almost everyone is strong enough to lift izumi in a princess carry and shes strong enough to lift quite a few troupe members too!! [teeechnically hisoka can too but he usually will not bother..,.,he does make exceptions for sakuya and muku tho,.,.,] azuma gets VERY giggly when he’s picked up,,.,ough,.,swoons,.,,.he is so special to me,,.,omi was veryyy hesitant when taichi asked him if he wanted someone to try and pick him up, so tai-chan obviously enlisted the help of guy and tetsuro to see if either of them were strong enough. turns out, both were!!! omi was blushing and smiling as FUCK it was vv cute

i will tell u a secret tho,.,.hisoka once picked up homare bridal style and homa HASNT SHUT UP ABOUT IT SINCE!!!! HE WAS SO ENAMOURED!!!! so!!! homare started regularly lifting weights with tasuku [he may have had to convince homa not to start lifting with 30 pound weights and mayyybe work his way up instead…] and after a good few months of spouting poems about exercising, he was finally able to lift hiso!!! good job homare!!!!

[lcs-library]

hiiii i remember seeing u on ao3 and i wanted to request!! can u do a sakuya and reader (gn) comfort where sakuya comforts the reader after a bad bad day? i love your works!

Yaaay it’s best boy!!! This took a LOT longer than expected, but this is probably the Sakuya fic I’m the most proud of, so I hope you enjoy it!(also can I just say that I’m a huge fan of yours lol your fics are so good!!)(I know that this fic starts a little bumpy but it gets better I promise)

When Sakuya entered his room with an “I’m home!”, he was a little terrified to see nothing but an arm sticking out of his bed over the ladder, letting out a small squeak of fear.

“It’s just me.” You groaned out, flipping the covers off of yourself to Sakuya’s relief.

After giving him a moment to process what had just happened, he finally asked what you were doing in his room.

“…tired.” You responded bluntly.

“…and I wanted to see you.” You added in a murmur.

“What was that last part?”

“Huh? ‘S nothing.”

“Okay,” Sakuya replied, realizing that he probably wouldn’t get much of a response out of you when you were like this.

“Did you have a hard day?” He asked gently, not wanting to provoke you.

“Mm.”

“Well, good job on making it through!”

“Thanks.” You responded monotonously.

Sakuya frowned a bit, noticing your unwillingness to hold a conversation.

Was it really that bad?

So, after setting his things down, he clambered up the ladder to his bed to lie beside you.

“Is it okay if I, ugh, squeeze in here?” Sakuya asked, trying his best to maneuver around your limp body.

“Mhm,” was, again, all you could muster as you rolled over to give him some space on the bed.

You both finally settled down in the cramped loft bed, your bodies having to be squished against each other to fit. Finally, Saku managed to give you a few centimeters of room so as to(hopefully) not invade on your personal space.

Although, despite his desire to respect your boundaries, there was one thing he wanted.

“Is it alright if I hold your hand?”

You didn’t even make a sound this time, instead opting to offer him your hand.

Sakuya’s eyes softened as he took it, lightly grazing over it before slowly lacing his fingers between yours, savoring the simple contact.

Although despite his actions being very kind and almost prince-like, the blush on his face was unmistakable. And admittedly, you couldn’t help but find him cute, even given your current mental state.

Sakuya allowed himself to bask in your touch, using both of his hands to cover yours entirely, toy with your fingers, and enjoy the small amount of contact he allowed himself to have with you.

“Do you want to tell me what happened? I’m fine with listening.”

“Mm-mm.” You simply replied, briefly shaking your head.

“Okay. Is there anything I can do for you? Oh!” Sakuya quickly perked up, releasing his hold on your hand.

“Actually, could you wait here for a sec? I’ll be right back, I promise!”

And with that, he scrambled down the ladder and ran out of the room, leaving you to wonder what he was up to.

But, as promised, he quickly returned, a pile of snacks and drinks in his hands.

“I’m back! And I brought some snacks! I know this sounds kinda stupid, but whenever I’m in a bad mood, sometimes eating something can help. Do you wanna come down here and try it?”

Once more, you didn’t give a verbal response as you climbed down the bed’s ladder, then plopped yourself on the floor underneath Sakuya’s bed, earning a giggle from him.

“You don’t have to stay on my side of the room, you know. I’m sure Citron won’t mind if we use his table for a little bit.” Sakuya reassured you, extending his hand to help you up.

You took it, letting out a small grumble as you allowed him to lead you to the low table on Citron’s side of the room.

The two of you sat side-by-side on the cushions, Sakuya crossing his legs while you left yours outstretched in front of you.

Sakuya laid his rations out on the table, sorting through them to figure out which one you would probably want the most right now. Finally, he decided on a bag of gummy worms, tearing open the package to grab a handful to pop into his mouth.

“Do you want some?” Sakuya offered, finally turning to you.

At this point, your body had become a limp mess, with your upper body splayed across the table, arms outstretched, with your head lying on top of them.

“Ah.” You opened your mouth, showing that you had no energy left to even grab the food.

Sakuya blinked a bit at your response, but ended up putting a worm in your mouth, and after seeing you successfully eat it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“…at least you’re eating. Good job!” He praised, stroking your head as he held out another piece of candy.

You ate it once more, and the cycle continued until the both of had emptied the bag.

“Well, how do you feel after eating something?” He asked, hoping for a good response.

“A little better.” Sakuya grinned at this.

“That’s good! And you’re sitting mostly upright now, so that’s good too! You evolved from being a blob!”

“Who taught you that.”

“Itaru!”

“Not surprised.”

“But still,” Sakuya continued, “you’re feeling a bit better, so is it okay if you give me your face for a sec?”

“My face?”

Sakuya nodded, his sweet grin almost starting to glow. He was going to fluster you with his cuteness, wasn’t he?

“‘Kay.” You replied flatly, allowing him to cup your chin in his hands, picking it up from where it rested on your hand. Then, with no warning, he lowered it to his lips and kissed your forehead.

“I didn’t know if you’d be up to me doing this earlier,” Sakuya started, his voice low, “but I’m glad you’re okay with this. I’m sorry you had such a hard day, and if there’s anything I can do to make it better, just let me know, okay?”

Your eyes filled with tears as the only thing you could respond with was once more reduced to “mm.”

The air had somehow become so much lighter around the two of you as you let the softness linger for a bit.

You let yourself melt into Sakuya’s touch. It was a bit surprising to have him present himself like this to you, as someone who could comfort you and keep you safe, although it was refreshing in a way.

Apparently, Sakuya noticed the way your body relaxed in his hold and smiled gently.

“You know, it would be a good idea for you to get some sleep, even if it’s a little early, especially after the day you had.” Sakuya murmured calmly.

“But what about-“

“When Citron gets home I’ll make sure he stays quiet, and if anything happens with the troupe, I’m sure Izumi can handle it.”

“…okay.” You sighed, trusting him to take care of the situation.

“Good. Do you just wanna sleep right here?”

“Yeah.”

“Okay.”

With that, you curled up next to Sakuya, resting your head in his lap, which immediately earned you a bright red sunshine boy.

Thankfully, however, he knew that if he freaked out right then and there, he’d probably disturb the peaceful space he created for you, so he opted to stay quiet and play with your hair instead and draping his free arm over your body.

You closed your eyes, relaxing once more into Sakuya’s gentle touch. When he wanted to be, he was such a calm and reassuring presence, which allowed you to safely fall asleep in his arms.

Once your breathing steadied out, Sakuya checked your face to see if you were asleep.

“Hehe. There we go.” He muttered under his breath.

“There’s no way I’ll get them up to bed though, so I guess I’m trapped for the night, huh?” He whispered, brushing some strands of hair out of your face.

“Guess it won’t be bad, though.” He smiled.

“Good night. Let’s hope tomorrow’s better, okay?”

[midnightlee25]

Yandere ABC: Sakuya Sakuma

Affection: How do they show their love and affection? How intense would it get? 

Sakuya's affection for his darling can get very intense. He just can't help but to cling onto them and show just how much he cares for them. 

Blood: How messy are they willing to get when it comes to their darling? 

It doesn't happen often but there are times when he notices a person who is just being too mean to his darling. He just can't let it slip so he will pay them a visit later. 

Cruelty: How would they treat their darling? 

Towards his darling there is no cruelty detected whatsoever only sugar, spice and everything nice. 

Delusional: How aware are they? 

Heavily delusional, he believes that he and his darling are in the sweetest most perfect relationship from just about the moment he first sees them. (Love at first sight if you will.) 

Exposed: How much of their heart do they bare to their darling? How vulnerable are they when it comes to their darling? 

A couple should be able to share everything with each other. That's at least that's what he believes. 

Fight: How would they feel if their darling fought back? 

Confused and hurt not understanding why they are acting like this. Had he done something to upset them? He'll try his best to comfort them in order for them to calm down. 

Hell: What would be their darling’s worst experience? 

When he's in between reality and fantasy. Maybe he will finally snap out of it or get buried deeper into his delusions either way the ending isn't going to be pretty. 

Ideals: What is their plan for the future? 

He just simply wants his darling to stay with him but he would be lying if he said he hadn't thought about a family with his darling. 

 Jealousy: How jealous are they when it comes to their darling? 

He gets jealous fairly easily given that he wants his darling all to himself. It also depends on who the person is one how jealous he will get. 

Knowledgeable: How much would they try to learn about their darling? 

He learns everything he can about his darling. No matter how much his darling tries to keep it hidden. 

Love letters: How would they go about courting or approaching their darling? 

His courting isn't anything abnormal. But after about a week or two of it it's usually when he starts to believe him and his darling is already dating. 

Mask: Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else? 

Nothing is different when around others. He makes everything seem so normal when around others. So, if his darling so to say something about how he acts everyone would have a hard time believing them. 

Naughty: How would they punish their darling? 

Except for maybe isolation there aren't really any punishments for his darling.  

Oppression: How many rights would they take away from their darling? 

He doesn't take away many things, mostly just privacy (he is very clingy.)  

Patience: How patient are they with their darling? 

He lets them take their time either getting used to their new home or with their ‘shyness’. 

Quit: If their darling dies, leaves, or successfully escapes, would they ever be able to move on? 

He was devastated…. Until he got it in his head that his darling never really left but was just playing some kind of prank of some kind and that they would return shortly… at least that's what he believes. 

Regret: Would they feel guilty? Would they let go? 

Only when he starts to realize the fear his darling shows but that quickly turns into something else causing it not him. 

Stigma: What brought about this side of them? 

It was love at first sight for him that just grew over time and although it was soft at first it quickly turned dark when things started to happen outside of his fantasy. 

Tears: How do they feel about their darling crying, screaming, and/or throwing a tantrum? 

He feels trouble when he sees them so upset. He tries his bets to make them feel better. which only works half of the time with the other half making it worse. 

Unique: Does anything make them different from the classic yandere? 

Among other sickly sweet yanderes he's not so different. However even on that scale he is on the more dangerous side. 

Vice: What weakness can their darling exploit in order to escape? 

It really isn't that hard to trick him but it wouldn't last that long either. it's not that he sees through it or anything, it's just bad timing/ bad luck. For example, let's say his darling sent him away from something so they would pick a lock but as soon as they get it unlocked, he is already in front of the door. 

Wit’s end: Would they ever hurt their darling? 

He would never lay a hand on his darling however his love can start to mess with their mind. 

Xoanon: How much would they worship their darling? 

He is very sweet and caring to his darling, more or less on the border of worshiping. 

Yearn: How long do they pine after their darling before they snap? 

Technically he's always stuck in a sort of ‘honeymoon’ phase with his darling but when he does snap it's because of someone else ruining his plans. 

Zeal: How passionate would they be? Would they be passionate enough to break their darling? 

His sweetness would be enough to break his darling over time but there is still a small chance that it won’t work.

MANKAI Company:

I'm so sorry for submitting 26 characters but it's important and they canonically consider each other family. I'm so sorry. But they're so important to me.

24 gay theater kids came together and found a home

They are a big group of people that range from teenagers to adults and it’s very nice to see their dynamics as they all go through theater with different eyes, between those who have a long life in front of them and are excited to do something new, and those others who feel like they are too old for this but still do it regardless, and like the way friendships are born between those people who seem so different yet have some similarities some past memories they relate to, or also see the adults trying to be there for the younger members it’s very cute I swear. You see even if I ramble here it’s hard to explain because I would explain 6 whole years of lore but yeah overall is just a situation of, people who seem different but find similarities between one another and do their best to help who struggles and are all bond by one single aim which is bloom on stage!

These are 25 individuals that all come from completely different backgrounds, situations, and experiences that all happened to come together by chance, and formed a tight bond and family that cannot be replicated. Sakuya Sakuma, a young orphan boy who found refuge from his troubling homelife through theatre, found himself a home within this small run down theatre company, and found a family through the people in it. This isn’t a Headcanon, A3! Is a found family story. Sakuya views everyone there as a member of his family, and it’s not just him. Misumi Ikaruga, a man kicked out of his home for being “different” (cough Autistic cough), finally found a family that accepts and loves him unconditionally. Taichi Nanao had been taught that you need to always be fighting your way to the top, and whoever gets hurt along the way is nothing but a necessary casualty. So being able to find a place that is willing to work and rise with him, and care for him along the way… and the theres Azuma, a man so heavily affected by the trauma he experienced as a child, and yet has pushed it so far down to the point you wouldn’t even know it by looking at him. But here, this god who knows how old man finally found it, that home he has been searching for, and a place where he can finally break down his walls. Sure, one could argue a3! Is 4 different found families, but you would be wrong. Yes, each troupe is important, however would you then deny the importance of cross troupe relationships? The four leaders, who all encourage one another to do better, Tsuzuru and Kazunari, who allow one another to finally be honest about their feelings, Azami and Kumon who are the definition of “boys being boys”, Sakyo and Azuma, two adults who seem well past the years of found family, who found solace in one another. A3! Is about people of all ages coming together to be a family. It doesn’t matter who you are, or where you come from. You could be just a random college kid off the road, or a former international spy, that doesn’t matter. Mankai has a spot for you, where you will be loved, accepted, and cherished.

[primeministerofantarctica]

A3! reading club: act one (chapter 1-6)

(cw: talking about parental neglect and abuse, orientalism, one mention of suicide)

Hey, ten out of twelve isn't bad, all things considered! This very well could have gone down in October. Also, since it's February (March if you wanna be generous), does that mean everyone in Harugumi's slightly younger than their Year One ages now? Ack, timelines are confusing.

Izumi casually talking about how Yukio neglected her and following it up with "well, it was probably because he loved this theater so much!" is. Oh, girl. No wonder she snapped when Sakyo suggested he'd abandoned Mankai, because if he hadn't loved it, then why did she have to go through with that?

I'm not versed enough in Japanese particles but I recognize "daijoubu" and Tsuzuru watching this trainwreck unfold and saying something along the lines of "are you guys, like, okay?" is extremely funny.

Then we get to Sakuya and Masumi's family situations, which. From a meta perspective, it makes sense to want to give your minor protagonists the freedom that having parents limits. That's why the trope of "young protagonist in kid's spec fic media is conveniently an orphan" is so common. (was? I think it's becoming less common now.) The problem lies in the lack of willingness to follow through with the emotional conflict it creates, or resolve said conflict in a satisfying manner. Sure, I'm assuming they weren't starved or physically abused, but being treated like a burden when you're a child is still fucking traumatizing! Basically I think Izumi Sakuya and Masumi should start a union. And I'm glad later chapters go the reasonably more toned-down route of "my parents have a reasonable amount of trust in me to make these kinds of decisions".

Also, can we talk about Sakuya and Masumi, because they're one of my favorite brotps here. The way Sakuya appoints himself as Masumi's surrogate big brother? He's so eager to potentially share a room with him ;-;. (personally I hc that Ms. Sakuma was expecting another child before the accident or whatever killed them, so Sakuya's been a big brother without a younger sibling all this time </3)

Wow, that doesn't sound like a metaphor for anything! You're right, Izumi, why would you go the easy route of taking something prepackaged and guaranteed when a bunch of wildly different spices can create a delicious meal if you know how to utilize them right?

Am I grasping at straws here. Probably.

The little ka-ching sound effect is adorable.

Tsuzuru, I'd think "antagonist" should be near the top of the list...also, there's plenty of plays that have been pulled off with two or three actors. Just put on "night, Mother" or something. (Joking. Don't look up night, Mother if you're sensitive to themes of suicide.)

"Tsuzuru, you picked this troupe because it had a dorm, right? ...Then maybe our best bet is to focus on more people in your shoes."

"People in my shoes? In other words...."

"The homeless?"

I CAN'T ASJHGSKSDSK

he's literally doing the 😔 face i'm on the floor.

HE'S HERE! Funny how Izumi's right about Citron not being a regular tourist right off the bat. He may not be from another troupe, but he's definitely "in character" right now.

Also, oof. Citron's my second fave in Harugumi after Sakuya, but it's glaringly obvious how much of his character is rooted in orientalism. Sure, maybe it's an act, but why is he talking about how "shameful" showing skin is when his top is (conveniently for us) THAT low-cut.

On another note, I know people have pointed out his distaste for pig's feet as evidence for headcanoning him as Muslim, but I haven't seen anyone point out how he calls Veludo Way a "mecca" of theatre. Like yeah, mecca can just mean hub, but...why didn't they just say hub? Words Have Connotations. I'm not saying this coding is good or bad, it's just a neutral observation.

AND HERE'S THIS BASTARD (affectionate)

Oh, Kasumi! (insert pointing reaction pic bc I've run out of photo space.) It's Kasumi, guys! :D

A3! Drinking Headcanons! Pt. 1 Spring and Summer Troupe (Another Long one! TW:Alcohol and underage drinking)

🌸Spring troupe🌸

Sakuya Sakuma: Definitely curious about drinking, it looks like everyone having a fun time together. Everyone at Mankai's usually having a fun time together so he's curious how drinking changes that. Hasn't tried alcohol before, wants to wait till he's old enough. Probably would like with Rum and cokes or beer.

Citron: Loves drinking socially, doesn't drink alone. Enjoys going to clubs, doing karaoke, and having playing drinking games. A very hungry drunk, once ate an entire platter of fried shrimp. Some how doesn't get hungover. Has offered the younger members alcohol before because he forgot the drinking age in Japan. Will drink anything, loves sake and cocktails.

Chikage Utsuki: A casual drinker, no one has every seen him completely wasted nor does he ever seem to be hungover the morning after. He'll have the occasional drink by himself after work or on game night with the other adults. He likes to keep his wits about him. Drinks whiskey, Fireball, things like that.

Tsuzuru Minagi: Definitely has tried alcohol, despite not being old enough. His older brothers have slipped him a beer or two when their parents weren't around. Would never drink around the younger members or his younger brothers eve if he was old enough to drink, idk something about their innocent beady little eyes staring at him, it makes him feel off. Would mainly drink cheaper thing like beer, or 99 cent banana schnapps. Tries to hide his hangover the best he can but it's hard when he can't really walk straight and the room is spinning.

Itaru Chigisaki: Rarely drinks, drinking hinders his gaming skills. Will order one beer when out with his coworkers along with a glass of water.

"Wow! Itaru you take care of yourself so well!" They'll Say,

"Heh. Yeah I'm really into to selfcare and stuff." He'll respond like a liar.

After that he'll order drinks that sound like they have alcohol, like an Arnold Palmer or a St. Clements. Doesn't get a hangover since he doesn't really drink, probably has a low alcohol tolerance too.

Masumi Usui: Wants to drink with you soo badly, he's counting the days you and him can have a romantic drink by the sunset together. He had a glass in his room that you'd drank from and left lipstick marks on, It was his prized possession until Tsuzuru cleaned the room and took the cup to be cleaned. "And to think I was starting to like you." "Masumi that cup was attracting ants." Will drink anything you drink. Mostly likely when he is able to drink he'll over do it and you'll have to carry him back to the apartment. He'll wake up with an awful hangover in the morning but will be elated if you nurse him back to health.

☀️Summer Troupe☀️

Tenma Sumeragi: This is a hard one, on one hand he sees drinking as a possible way to relax and bond with his troupe(in the future), but also drinking can impair your judgement and he already has a terrible sense of direction. He's underaged so the media would have a field day if he was caught drinking. Once he was old enough he'd probably drink top self alcohol. Would be an a moody drunk, "Aw, I love you guys! You're the best groups of friends a guy could have." "Aw thanks Tenten!" "Fuck off blondie." (Advice. If your gonna drink cocktails or whatever don't buy the most expensive liquor, cocktails are made so you don't taste the alcohol. Save your money.) A lLightweight.

Muku Sakisaka: Wants to drink, the adult members of Mankai always seem to have a great time drinking with each other. He's curious what really goes on when adults go out drinking, is it anything like manga? Drunk confessions that neither of you would remember? Having a one night stand with your cute coworker and having to pretend like nothing happens? Drunken Kabedons??? Once he's old enough to drink he'll go for the sweeter drinks that taste like candy, and anything that's pink. Has an average alcohol tolerance, as a drunk he becomes clumsy, like that person who throws a drink back and then slams it back onto the counter. He tends to forget his own strength when drinking.

Yuki Rurikawa: Doesn't care much for drinking or the idea of being drunk, mainly wants to take pictures of pretty cocktails that match his outfit, regardless if they taste good. If he's drunk take away his wallet because he's a drunk spender, it's funny because drunk Yuki will buy something he thinks sober Yuki will love and when it arrives sober Yuki will question his sanity because he has no memory of buying things. "Drunk me is an asshole."

Misumi Ikaruga: The drunk that needs a babysitter, a sober babysitter. You already know he likes any drinks in a glass that are shaped like a triangle, or come with fruit that's shaped like a triangle. no preference for alcohol as long as he get his triangle. You know what else can be vaguely triangle shaped, the dish behind the bar that holds fruits shaped like like triangles. Yep, Drunk Misumi has stick fingers, you'd think he's a pro thief at how easily he slips things into his projects. He doesn't mean any harm to anyone, his brain is just like "Shiny!" and puts it in his pockets.

Kazunari Miyoshi: King of drunks, loves party punches that are just a jumble of alcohol, juice, and candy. Also the King of dealing with hangovers, once the youths of the summer troupe are able to drink he'll take a step back and take care of them while their drink and then help nurse any hangovers. Actually a great guy to drink with, he's the designated driver? he won't touch a drop of alcohol. Need him to watch your drink he'll protect it his life. When he's the one drinking he'll get these "great" ideas for art project and scribble them down. Once he's sober he'll look at these ideas and their just scribbles that a kindergartener could do.

Kumon Hyodo: Not many health benefit to drinking, bitter red wine is said to be good for you but it's bitter...and expensive. Would have the occasional beer with his bro or his troupe mates but never enough to blackout.

Sakuya Sakuma for the ask game

Oooo hihi!!! I can and will be abnormal about him just you wait.

What made me like them

I recently went back and rewatched the first stageplay of his source and relived a lot of emotions from my first playthrough by doing so, and I think I figured it out!! It took me a lot to stop analyzing him as an actor, and actually get to know who he was as a character. Surprise surprise, he makes me soooo normal<3

My favorite thing about them

His earnesty! My autocorrect is saying that’s not a word but I don’t care. It shows a lot through his performances onstage(yeah I’ve been watching a lot of Man.kai Stage over the past few days how can you tell?) and through his interactions with his new family. He really does want to please everybody(for sad reasons), but when he’s doing something he loves, he’s doing it with all of his heart! He will put 110% of himself into everything, and it’s really admirable!

Nicknames we have for each other

Uhhhh they’re kinda basic, but I’ve been flipping between just Saku and “my love” a lot, but I don’t think he has any for me/Lu other than the default Lu…. Maybe that will change

A headcanon of our relationship/friendship

It’s really sweet and playful! Even if Saku’s generally very chill in canon, Lu won’t stop messing with him until he laughs.

My favorite image of them

SO many. Gonna narrow it down to 3

Everything about the first one. Everything. That specific performance of Usononai Namida makes me lose my MIND. I guess that’s kinda why it’s my url. The second is his new birthday card and I think it’s easy to tell why I like it. Rare Saku.ya cunting it up moment. And last is his bridegroom battle royale card bc. Hehehehe he’s waiting for ME<3

Anything else!

Kissable freak🫶

Spring Troupe with an S/O Who Shares the Same Hobby

A/N: I had a ton of fun writing these. Hope y’all enjoy! I’ll eventually write these for the other troupe’s as well :)

CW(s): none

❀ Sakuya Sakuma - Theatre

Sakuya absolutely adores the fact you love theatre, as it’s such a huge passion of his

He’ll definitely ask for your help when rehearsing and memorizing lines or when practicing blocking by himself. He’ll look to you for advice at times as well whenever he’s a bit stuck.

If you’re also in theatre productions, he’ll always offer to help you with the same things and will try to give constructive criticism to you too if you ask for it

He will definitely show up to all of your performances, his theatre schedule permitting, whenever you are in a show. Doesn’t matter if you’re ensemble or the lead, he’s so incredibly proud of you and wants to cheer you on

Whenever you go to his performances he’s so grateful and swears up and down he’s performances are always a little bit better when you’re there.

Be prepared to go on theatre dates; if there’s a performance he wants to see, he’ll be sure to invite you and he hopes you’ll do the same

Sakuya looked over at you, excitement written plainly on his face. You couldn’t help but smile in response. The two of you were waiting in line to see a new theatre performance that was set to premiere that day, and you were both vibrating with excitement. Sakuya squeezed your hand and smiled at you again.

“Excited?”

“Extremely.” The line moved forward and the two of you made your way inside. As soon as you sat down and the lights began to dim, Sakuya squeezed your hand again and placed a soft kiss on the side of your face.

“Thank you for coming with me.” he whispered.

“I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.”

The fact that he can do something he loves, with someone he loves, means the absolute world to him

❀ Masumi Usui - Music

Masumi has a passion for music and the fact you do too is just another reason he loves you

He’ll definitely share his favorite CDs with you, and even make you playlists! He’ll also create special music CDs for music he recommends or just songs that remind him of you

He starts to carry earbuds on his person so you two can listen to music together no matter where you are, and if he forgets his pair he knows you most likely have your pair on you

Sometimes, when you’re spending time together, the two of you just listen to music and bask in each others presence

He’ll share a lot of alternative rock with you as it’s his favorite genre, but he’ll listen to almost anything

Even if your favorite genre isn’t his favorite, he’ll still listen to and appreciate every song you send to him

‘Hey babe!’ you texted Masumi, ‘this song reminded me of you ♡ it’s called Same Boat by LizzyMcAlpine! It’s not your usual genre but I hope you like it anyways! (Ɔ ˘⌣˘)♥(˘⌣˘ C) ‘

Masumi read the text message in his dorm, smiling to himself. He opened YouTube and typed in the title and quickly clicked a lyric video. You were right, the song was incredibly far from his favorite genre. The song was slow and soft, but somewhat pretty nonetheless.

As the song ended he opened up your text chat again. ‘I am in the same boat ♡ love you so much’ he typed out.

‘Love you too, Masumi!’ He couldn’t help but smile at his phone once more, absolutely enamored with you.

Masumi just adores the fact he share his hobby with you, and you can understand where he’s coming from when it comes to his love for music

❀ Tsuzuru Minagi - Writing

Tsuzuru finds it incredibly helpful that you also like to write, no matter if it’s script writing, poetry, non-fiction, or stories

If you do more creative writing he’ll definitely bounce ideas off of you and have you peer review some of his work to make sure it makes sense -especially since he writes a lot of his work while practically dead-. If you write more nonfiction, he may ask for help with research whenever he’s writing a historical play or anything of that such.

If you ask him to, he’ll peer edit and review your work as well. He may not always do the best job, especially if he just finished a script

Remind him to sleep and rest! You especially understand what it’s like to overwork yourself so your reminders almost mean more to him. He’ll also remind you to rest, which is quite hypocritical but he does it because he cares about you.

You were working on the final draft of your writing project when you received a phone call. The name on the screen read, ‘Tsuzuru’. You couldn’t help but smile at the sight of your boyfriend's name.

You answered the phone. “Hey Tsuzuru!’

“Hey! I know you’ve been working on that project lately so I just wanted to remind you to go to sleep. The project will still be there in the morning and you’ll be able to work on it better after you rest.”

You couldn’t help but laugh. “Tsuzuru, you’re working on a script right now, right?”

“Yeah?”

“I’ll listen to your words only if you heed your own advice. You can finish the script in the morning and you’ll do better after you rest. ‘Kay?”

Tsuzuru laughed then. “Okay, I’ll try.”

“Then I’ll try as well. Love you!”

“Love you too.”

He also always hypes up your writing! He adores it so much and thinks you’re incredibly talented

❀ Itaru Chigasaki - Video Games

One of the reasons Itaru originally decided to pursue a relationship with you was because of your love for video games

He loves to recommend you games, and he’ll play any and all of the games you recommend him

You can bet you’ll have video game dates. Whether this means you backseat gaming as he uses the controller or vice versa or even playing multiplayer depends on the day.

“You have to go down!”

“No, the extra bonus isn’t here, it’s further down.”

“No no, trust me, Itaru, it’s here I’ve played this game like a bajillion times.”

“And I’ve played it a bajillion and one times.” you rolled your eyes at your boyfriend, although he couldn’t see it. He was lying on his back on the couch, and you cuddled on top of him with his arms around you as he held the controller.

“Please just at least look?” you asked.

“Fine.” You watched the playable character move out of the screen as the game faded to black. Once the game faded back in, you could see the bonus chest in the hidden room. “See! I told you!” you yelled, laughing the entire time.

“I can’t believe you proved me wrong.” he laughed too, although there was a hint of frustration in his voice. You craned your neck to kiss Itaru on the jaw.

“It’s okay, it was more of a lucky guess. Also I played this game before coming over so I could see where the hidden items were.”

Itaru will go with you to gaming stores, and will definitely use you as an excuse for being there in case he runs into a coworker. But it’s alright, as he’ll give you an apology kiss afterwards.

If you ever need help beating a game, he’ll always be there to help and give advice. And if you play gacha, he may help donate to the cause of you pulling your best boy or girl

❀ Citron - Learning New Words

Citron loves to learn new words, and if you do as well, then he’d love to learn new words with you!

He’ll definitely just flip through a dictionary with you, learning how to pronounce new words and learning their definitions

The two of you were lying on the floor of Citron’s dorm on your bellies next to each other. Between you was a dictionary.

“Letter?” you asked.

“F.”

“Alright.” You found the ‘F’ section in the dictionary and flipped to a random page, closing your eyes and pointing to a random spot.

“Fas-mill?” Citron sounded confused.

You looked at the pronunciation key. “I think it’s fac-SIH-muh-lee.”

“Oh! That makes sense. Facsimile. What does the word mean?”

“It says it means ‘an exact copy or reproduction, as of a document’. So I guess, like, whenever the director makes a copy of Tsuzuru’s scripts for you guys to memorize it’s a facsimile.”

“Oh! That makes a lot of sense. Thank you!” Citron gave you a kiss on the cheek after he finished speaking.

Sometimes your dates just consist of flipping through a dictionary and learning new words. The two of you have a lot of fun, even if others may find it odd

Sometimes he’ll tell you stories from his homeland using the new words you learned even if he doesn’t always use them correctly

❀ Chikage Utsuki - Spicy Food

Chikage is so happy someone else finally loves spicy food close to as much as he does

He may ask you for help when writing his reviews, as getting a second opinion can definitely help him at times

He’ll take you to his favorite spicy food restaurants for dates and will ask if he can order for you as he’s eaten at these restaurants so many times, he practically has their menus memorized. Because of this, he has an idea of what is good and what isn’t and you’re most likely to like

Chikage had asked if he could order your meal for you and you and you had agreed, trusting him to get you something you’d like.

A plate was soon placed in front of you and you promptly decided it looked absolutely delicious. You took a bite.

“So? How is it?”

“It’s amazing, oh my god.” you responded, your mouth still somewhat full of food.

“It’s rude to talk with your mouth full.”

“Sorry,” you replied, but your mouth still had food in it. Chikage shook his head.

“Well, I’m glad you like it. I figured you would.”

Sometimes he’ll sneak extra spice into your food- whether it’s as a ‘prank’ or not is really anyone’s guess

Sometimes, as a date, the two of you will order spicy food from a bunch of restaurants and try them all, critiquing them as if you’re professional food reviewers although you could argue Chikage kind of is
