Yes, you're right, "I'd kill for you – please, ask me to kill for you" is a fun relationship dynamic, but where's the love for the classic attack-dog power dynamic reversal? I'd have thought Tumblr would be all over that one, too. The old "I'll kill for you – and kill, and kill, and kill, if needs be – but first you have to tell me exactly what it is you want. You are not permitted moral distance. Tell me what you need from me and admit your soft hands are just as bloody as mine. Say it. Say it."

(flops on stage) i now present to you my very silly swap au,,,

essentially jasper is now the co-leader of the society who was bitten by a werewolf and is trying to hide it, jekyll is the uni student who got kicked out due to his experiments and then picked up off the streets, etc. jasper and rachel can’t communicate and jekyll and lanyon are living the world’s weirdest horror romcom you’ve ever seen. more info under cut hehe (feat. bad explanations and doodles)

in simpler terms, jekyll and lanyon swap narrative positions (?? is that the right term) with jasper and rachel respectively. (lanyons and rachels swap doesn’t technically work as well as Jekyll’s and jaspers does but shhhhh). Frankenstein becomes the mad scientist that attacks the society and moreau becomes jaspers idol.

longer explanation but WARNING!! it is 3am when i am typing this and i am terrible at explaining. it may be slightly incomprehensible.

so like jasper and rachel founded the society after jasper publishes his research and gets semi famous. two years before current events jasper is out on a research venture and gets bitten by a werewolf. he doesn’t want to scare rachel or the lodgers so he keeps it a secret (to his own detriment). flash forward to now and jasper gets a call to investigate a “creature” terrorizing the streets of london only to find hyde.

before jasper can process the dumpster man he is looking at hyde transforms back into jekyll. jekyll explains that while trying to prove his theory of spiritual alchemy at his university he may or may not have split his own soul. and got kicked out. and is now living on the streets.

jasper, not really knowing what else to do and kinda relating to the poor guy, takes him back to the society. he introduces his co-leader rachel, who pretty much keeps this entire thing up and running. (rachel and jekyll still become friends but she especially takes to hyde. that little brother shaped hole in her heart is still very much present!) then theres the lodgers (idk how they all swap) and then there’s lanyon, a university student at the society because it was mandatory for one of his courses. he is not enjoying it and would very much rather be breaking boy’s hearts back at school. lucky for him tho, there’s jekyll!

this goes about as well as you would expect. lanyon then spends the rest of his stay at the society trying to understand (and woo) the conundrum that is jekyll and hyde. it’s very fluffy and they learn to communicate like jasper and rachel in canon (yippee!)

unfortunately for jasper and rachel, they have been playing the “just friends” game for the last decade. im having a bit of trouble trying to flesh out swap rachel so i don’t really know if she’s in a lavender marriage like canon lanyon is or is estranged/divorced or just single but whatever the case is she likes jasper but thinks he just sees her as a friend while jasper is madly in love with her and is too scared to tell her. this problem has only worsened since jasper got bitten. everyone else tho is aware of how they feel about each other and are stuck witnessing their tortuously long slow burn.

(hyde and lanyon at some point probably come up with a scheme to try and get them to confess. it goes horribly wrong.)

so yeah. this au has been floating around in my head ever since i read the comic for the first time. it mainly came to be because of how well jasper and jekyll parallel each other and because i wanted to draw stupid fluff and older jasper lol.

if anyone has any ideas/questions/etc TELL ME!!!!! this is just a rough idea if you have a better concept go for it awhdvgevd

("Always. Continuously. With increasing apprehension, and decreasing hope. I will love you if I never see you again, and I will love you if I see you every Tuesday. I will love you as a corpse loves the beak of the vulture. I will love you no matter what happens to you, and no matter how I discover what happens to you, and no matter what happens to me as I discover this." -- paraphrased from The Beatrice Letters, Lemony Snicket)

Now, I also have no knowledge of irl poly relationships, and also I'm aroace so I hardly understand romance and sex, period.

But for me when it comes to TG polyships, is that... we don't really get romantic jealousy as an emotion in the series?

Maybe it's my own dislike of heavy romantic jealousy, but I can't really point to any of the characters and say "Yes this person would be very possessive and jealous of anyone around their partner".

I think the only jealousy to crop up would be the insecure "I don't deserve them" type, which is very ripe for angst and said character being showered in love by the other two.

Additionally, because the series has so many trios and explores those dynamics... These characters already know and trust each other so strongly on a platonic level. The way most of my polyshipping comes about for these trios is that it just happens naturally as a part of that three-way friendship.

To me, there's 2 poly ships that are most likely in canon as-in:

1) Amon / Akira / Seidou.

We have Akira declaring she "loved both of them" to Gori after the Anteiku Raid. Amon coming to save Seidou from himself and save Akira in Rue. In the Clown Raid, Seidou saving Amon for Akira's sake.

They are always in alternating pairs, and all 3 know what they mean to each other.

Seidou: "Mado. Smile. Amon's coming home." - To me, that quote says it all. That's what I want them to be.

2) Touka / Kaneki / Hide

These three are my tg OTP so I'm biased, but I'm so interested in how, potentially, the third could fix the relationship issues with the other two.

Kaneki already has an unhealthy relationship with both Hide and Touka in canon — miscommunication and abandonment in slightly different ways.

I think Touka's bluntness would cause her to force Kaneki and Hide to talk things out. I think Hide would notice Kaneki avoiding Touka and nudge him to talk to her and ease him of any worries.

Or maybe they'd just make each other worse! Honestly, I'd love to see that too.

There was this talking about how there's bunch of Tokyo Ghoul trios, so it's easy to tie them up as ships.

Have you got any trio or polyamory ships like that? If so any cute or domestic headcanon with them?

hiya

Yeah, Ishida wrote a lot of trio-friend groups didn't he? (come to think of it, it's common in a lot of manga)...

I don't reeeeeeally do shipping, so I have no headcanons, sorry. What I can say though, is your ask got me thinking about polyamory ships in TG. I've never been interested in polyamorous relationships in real life so my knowledge on them is basically non-existent. I have read from people in them that they only really work if ALL partners have good mental wellbeing, self-esteem, and communication abilities, otherwise stuff like jealously and insecurity crop-up...( Which I guess is true of all relationships 🤷‍♀️) idk.

If this IS true, I wonder how successful polyamorous relationships would be for some of the trios in Tokyo ghoul?? There's a couple of popular ones I can think of, where straight off the bat I can think of dissension being very realistic, especially if the timeline is quite early-on.

Sorry I couldn't answer your question. If anyone has any experience or comments on this, I'd be really interested. Poly relationships seem popular in fandom, and I've always wondered how well they'd REALLY work.

saiko absolutely sends hsiao those posts of random objects next to each other and says "they're so us"

hsiao's response is always "of course they are, baby <3" meanwhile she doesn't fully get it but finds saiko's ability to see the two of them in everything rather charming and cute.
