You know how there's an area conversation where Tsukasa is at Miya Girls? Since I haven't seen it shared it, I'm assuming Emu still goes to Kamiyama once in a while.

I like to think that as Tsukasa was making his way to Miya Girls, Emu was making her way to Kamiyama. And they definitely passed each other along the way. They didn't even stop to chat, they were both running, so it went something like:

Emu: HELLO TSUKASA!! BYE TSUKASA!!!

Tsukasa: Hello Em-EMU?!

And they just kept going.

Proseka headcanons

-as rui’s childhood friend, nene has extensive fire safety knowledge

-shizuku is adopted, hence why she looks so different from shiho. she was adopted shortly before the moon rabbit event and it contributed to her clinginess

-shiho forgets this fact sometimes. she’ll casually mention something like shizuku got all mom’s good genes so unfair and ichika has to be. um. shiho

-kanade is mildly nearsighted/myopic but spends so much time at her computer she hasn’t noticed

-emu is buff. she climbs multiple stories without breaking a sweat and is canonically part of the swimming, handball and rhythmic gymnastic clubs, you can’t tell me she doesn’t have some muscle

-saki helps out as a human notepad for tsukasa, reminding of him things he would otherwise forget within 5 minutes

-the vocaloids also help. at first it was unnerving to have hatsune miku be an extension of his psyche that knows his darkest secret (stole saki’s candy when he was 6) but now his phone has a more reliable catgirl themed reminder system

-you know that classic nightmare of leaving the house without pants? tsukasa has legitimately done that as a kid. he forgor. (saki will never let him live it down)

-in the kamiyama student council/hall monitor room, an has put up at sign saying “_ days since last kamishiro incident”

-the shinonome siblings both figured out the other one was gay before they figured it out about themselves

-airi’s great at trivia from her time as a variety show star. she still can’t beat minori at idol trivia, though

-ena keeps a diary with fort knox level security. try to read it and you’ll lose a finger

-saki learned to crochet from the old ladies in the hospital

-shiho’s most treasured phenny is a somewhat lumpy crocheted phenny holding a very lumpy crocheted bass guitar

-tsukasa snores. he falls asleep in 10 seconds and sounds like a dying lawnmower

-mizuki has learned a small bit of french from their sister and uses it exclusively to teach rui and an how to swear in french

-emu still celebrates her grandfather’s birthday, even if he’s not there to celebrate with her

-ena is allergic to dogs, the middle point to airi’s cat allergy and akito’s dog phobia

-rui has various small scars from his experiments over the years, but nobody ever believes the real causes (rocket launcher, robot bite, exploding balloon animal, etc.) so he just makes up a new cause every time someone asks

-mmj! has had repeated incidents of minori and airi’s little siblings walking into frame when streaming at their houses. shiho understands the concept of a livestream but has still been caught failing at creeping past like that one new broadcast of the guy crawling along the floor

-kanade has pots & eds, this one I have a reason for look at her symptoms. chronic exhaustion, heat and cold intolerance, comorbid sleep issues and depression, dizziness when standing up, fainting after standing up, very pale skin, family history of medical issues, pain at normal physical activities, exercise intolerance, vertigo at mild exertion, she just fucking dies during the entire baseball event, I could go on. she canonically gets pain in her hands from opening a jar girl that is not just being out of shape that is physical disability. this one I will go conspiracy board on listen to me I’m right

-kohane ate bugs as a kid. an is horrified, toya is confused, akito is impressed

-ena and airi got in trouble in middle school because they’d keep starting fist fights in defense of the others honor. if they saw the other in a fight they’d jump in guns blazing no hesitation no questions ask ready to throw the fuck down

-vbs!rin and len were given a skateboard by an and then promptly had the skateboard confiscated by meiko for property destruction

-haruka is horrible with slang. she asks the stream chat what poggers means and immediately uses it completely wrong, killing all viewers on impact

-minori is torn between thinking it’s cute and wanting to die

-toya has been banned from arcades before because he made them lose too much money/they suspected he was cheating

-ena brought kanade over for girls night and nearly scared akito half to death because he went down to get a late night snack and there was some Ghastly Creature looming in his kitchen

-kohane's parents stick out like a sore thumb when going to her live shows. it mortifies her that everyone on vivid street can recognize them as the only milquetoast middle aged couple dressed in normal clothes loudly going YOU'RE DOING GREAT SWEETIE that don't know the first thing about music

-minori knows basic programming. she mostly uses it for forums, blogs, html, other web design things usually related to idols as a hobby, but she's become the groups designated anti-shizuku tech support

-mafuyu has always been able to see ghosts but after adults figured she was just playing pretend as a kid so she shrugged and figured it was normal and not worth bringing up again

-honami has one of those massive extended families and somehow keeps track of them all. at any given time cousin #57 can crawl out of the woodwork and she remembers their new job, favorite food, past three romantic relationships and list of allergic reactions

-mizuki does doll customizing as a hobby. they prefer making human sized clothes, but it's fun to make them miniature too. they've introduced shizuku to it and she loves it, but doesn't have the heart to do anything that would hurt the doll (sawing limbs off, dunking them in boiling water, shoving wires in them, etc.)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ @nenes-numberonefan request: HELLOOO

ima request the same thing i requested @/mizu-nights but i’m a silly goose and i wanna see everyone’s style of writing

basically can i request rui, nene and tsukasa x reader (separate) and they have a platonic relationship with our beloved y/n but then they accidentally confess their love to the reader, sort of like the verse “the time is right your perfume fills my head the stars are red and oh the nights so blue, and then i go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like i love you ❤️” from the song something stupid. thank youuu xxxxxx love youuuuuu 😍😍😍🥶😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍(very hyper rn)

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ HIIII!! Yeah absolutely! I don't tho songfics normally tho, so I just based on your description and hopefully that's gonna be good enough!

But omg, the moment I saw this, I wanted to run to mizu-nights and read it because I apparently missed this fic- but NOPE I didn't wanted to accidentally write the same thing sooo I held myself back ^^

I totally did not copy lines from event for Tsukasa part-

*ੈ✩‧₊˚ fluff

Affiliation with @virtualbookstore

You've agreed to help Tsukasa with practicing for his upcoming performance, Romeo&Julia. He got the role of Romeo while his other friend from troupe got Julia. He just wanted someone to help him get that feeling of saying it right to soemone's face and... maybe he had planned something more too?

"O Juliet! Sun of my life! I beg of you, allow me your fair hand in marriage!!"

He was now on his one knee, holding your hand like pure gentleman with his left hand. This made you both happy and regretful for agreeing to help him... it's obviously very sweet to see him like this but it's also not helping your feelings for him... and you could swear you're blushing...

"Sweet Y/N...!"

But then he said your name... and you finally looked at him just to see him clearly in state of daydreaming, not stopping reciting next lines, so you had to stop him before he gives more hints than you can handle!

"Wait, wait... wasn't the second main character's name Juliet? Why did you say my name...?"

His face immidietly gained red hue and his hand didn't stop holding your gently. His eyes still looked focused on yours as if he haven't woke up from his dreamland, but his words told you his state was something completely else than you imagined...

"Y-Yes I know..."

You could only stare at him in slight shock... you didn't knew what to say and so did he. He was barely holding himself from turning it into a play someway... but he repeated one sentence in his head, "go big or go home", if he blurted it out, might as well go along?

"O Y/N, sun of my life, I beg of you, allow me to take you on a date!"

You and Nene were hanging out on a rooftop at Kamiyama. Even if you're from Miyamasuzaka, let's say Emu teached you a trick or two~ So either way, you can enjoy your time with your dear friend!

You leaned in, wanting to see what she's playing and for once, instead of seeing shooting or rhythm game, you found her playing some... visual novel? Or was it otome game?

"Hey Nene? Are you playing... otome game?"

"Mhm, yeah."

She responded, clearly way into the game to process what she's saying. But that never was a problem for you since she still responded and was honest if anything when she was in this state.

"Look, you can even name your love interest~"

You looked at the screen with even more interest and saw 2 names... "Nene" and "Y/N". You get why her name would be here but yours? Were you... no way, right?

"Is... is Y/N the name of your... ingame love interest?"

"Yeah, real love interest too."

She finally looked up from her phone right at you with this soft and charming smile, when she saw your blush she was even confused for a second! Untill she realized... she just blurted it out, didn't she?

"Oh- uh- I mean... not like... Like..."

Now it was her blushing like crazy not knowing what to say... she was clearly between 2 thoguhts and had no idea which to choose... oh did you know it was all about if she should tell you the truth or a lie...

"Am I actually~?"

You couldn't help but encourage her a bit, hoping to hear the truth. If she actually saw YOU as the love interest, the real one! Or... if it's just a misunderstanding...

And luckily, you didn't had to wait for long because right after your question, she gave you a little nod, easy to miss if you blinked... but her blushing face and the way she looked away would tell you it either way~

@bleachtheidiot @akitosheart @bl4cktourmaline @nenes-numberonefan - come get your shy gamer~

Rui has texted you he forgot his coat from his house. And you as good friend, agreed to bring it to Pheonix Wonderland. He made sure you get a free ticket after all! So how could you say no to free fun at amusement park AND helping out your dear friend?

When you finally arrived at the Wonder Stage, you saw him tinkering with the robot, untill he heard someone's footsteps... his mood immidietly lighting up once he saw it's you!

"You're finally here! And I see you got my coat with you~ I can't express how glad I am for your help~"

"Don't mention it! You offered me a free ticket for that so how could I've said now?!"

He chuckled and finally came over to get his coat back, which you gave him back. And in another second, he had it on!

"But still, you're a great person for bringing it to me at THIS HOUR."

"Awh~ Don't you melt here or I'm gonna melt too!"

You couldn't brush off how sweet it was and opened your arms for quick friendly hug, since you clearly had a bit of appreciation moment going on.

"No, I mean it... you're such a sweetheart... I really couldn't avoid falling for you~"

"Huh-? What?"

After your questioning, he finally got a hang of himself pulling away with faint blush, clearly not knowing what to do. But his first reflex was to lie...

"I-I mean..."

But he seemed to stop himself... he realized lying would only make it last longer... so he decided to pull himself together, take big breath in and take the risk.

"Yes... I'm really sorry. I'm aware this is probably gonna break our friendship but... I indeed did fell for you..."

Valentine’s Day

2nd fic ever (i know right such an accomplishment!!) I know it’s not anywhere near Valentine’s Day but I had this idea when I watched Komi Can’t Communicate’s Valentine’s Day episode… the fic itself isn’t anything like that episode (so don’t be expecting that) but I just wanted to do a little something about Valentine’s Day! <3

(Me? Proofread? What a strange concept. Also I wrote this at like 10pm. That’s when I write all my fics so I’ve got that going for me)

I’m sorry if Emu is mischaracterized! I have a hard time characterizing her because she’s just so fun and sparkly and I suck :’) Anyway enjoy the fic!!

Ship: EmuNene

Today was Valentine’s Day. 

     For the students of Kamiyama High, Valentine’s Day was… well. There was that hanging feeling of anticipation in the air, giddy and wistful at once. The chatter in the hallways was livelier and excited, as groups of friends giggled together about the coming events of the day. 

     The giddiness and the excitement were two feelings Kusanagi Nene was no stranger to. It happened every Valentine’s Day; there was nothing special about it now. Maybe there would never be. 

     She passed through the hallways and into her homeroom as usual. There were already people mingling about, exchanging friendship chocolates and blushing passionately. Shiraishi An and Shinonome Akito were exchanging a passionate talk at one end of the room, and Nene pretended not to notice. She wasn’t about to be involved in whatever conversation they were having. 

     As the teacher began class, she tried to force herself to pay attention. But the whispers and note-passing of her classmates was distracting, and there was a nagging feeling that she couldn’t push away. It was an annoying sort of hope and longing, that maybe, just maybe, somebody would - 

     No. That would never happen. Nene was kind and friendly with all of her classmates, but she wasn’t close with any of them. And all her other friends… she assumed they all had their own plans on this day. Tsukasa and Rui for sure… Nene would bet her phone that something was happening between them. 

     But for her? Not a chance. No one came to mind when she thought of a romantic relationship. No one, absolutely no one, definitely not someone short and bubbly, with vibrant pink hair and a bright - 

     No. No one. No one at all. 

     The rest of class was boring as the teacher drowned on and on about math equations Nene would probably never use again in her entire life. Like a breath of fresh air, the bell suddenly sounded, signaling the end of class and the start of lunch. Nene gratefully heaved herself out of her seat and headed to the entrance. She was to meet Tsukasa and Rui there for lunch - why they would choose outside, she had no idea. It was freezing. She pulled her jacket tighter around her and stepped out, the chilly air immediately stinging her cheeks, turning them a rosy red. She glanced around, but there was no sign of her friends. 

     “Tsukasa? Rui?” she called. No one answered her. There wasn’t a single person out here, most likely being smart and staying inside. Annoyance splintered through her. Great time for her friends to be late… 

     “Nene-chan Nene-chan!” 

     Nene jumped, her head whipping wildly around. “H-hello? Is someone there?” Inside her chest, a whisper of panic rose within her and strangled her heart. Had she imagined that? Because that voice… it could only belong to - 

     “Neneeeeee-CHAN!!” Suddenly, a burst of leaves sprayed out from a nearby bush and scattered into the wind. A ball of pink skyrocketed out of the bush and made a beeline for Nene, skidding to a stop just in front of her and throwing its arms around her. 

     “Nene! You’re here! You’re so fluffy-fluffy toasty-toasty! I haven’t seen you at all lately!” Emu’s arms squeezed tighter around her, threatening to break her ribs. Her face was broken into a wide smile, all stars and sparkles. Her cheeks were rosy from the cold, and a purple scarf was wrapped snugly around her neck. Under her soft pink jacket, her Miyamasuzaka uniform pressed up against Nene’s Kamiyama High uniform. 

     “E-Emu?!” Nene cried out in surprise. “You - you’re not supposed to be here, remember? If Shiraishi sees you -“ 

      “It’s okay!” Emu smiled up at her. Nene felt her face flush. “Besides, I’ve been here lots of times! And it’s too cold out! Why are you eating outside? Where’s Tsukasa and Rui? They said we were all eating outside today!”

     “They did?” Nene blinked as Emu unwrapped herself from her. “When?” 

     “Yesterday night Rui-kun called me to tell me you, Tsukasa, and him were eating outside,” Emu explained with a sad expression. “But he’s not here!” 

     “Rui told me the same thing,” Nene said, her eyes narrowing. Meaning… 

     She groaned inwardly. She’d walked right into it, hadn’t she? Darn it, Rui. And she couldn’t even get him back for it. 

     “Sorry, Emu, but something came up and they’re not coming,” she told the other apologetically. It felt a little mean to lie to her, but Nene wasn’t about to tell Emu what Rui’s plan really was. 

     “Let’s eat lunch together then!” Emu smiled. She plopped down on the floor. “What do you have?” 

     “Uh…” Nene followed suit, lowering herself down. “Pork tamago onigiri.”  

     “Wowww!” Emu’s eyes sparkled. “That sounds delicious~! I have a rice and fish bento! Can we share?” 

     Nene nodded. “Sure.” 

     And so their lunch went, the two of them laughing and chatting happily in the cold afternoon air. But the clouds and wind didn’t matter, for the warmth and happiness radiating around them was enough to rival the sunshine.

helping with the bakery (Chapter 1)

(Minori Hanasato x Haruka Kiritani)

-☘️-

Today was my mom's business trip and she told my teacher that I'll not be in school for 2 weeks due to me taking her spot

"Okay dear if you need any help call Tsukasa or Toya"

"I will mom don't worry!"

I smile at my mom as she left the store

Oh did I forget to mention that...I HAVE THE WORST LUCK EVER I'M GOING TO SCREW UP THE CUSTOMERS ORDERS!

Most of the customers have known me since my childhood they understand how much I mistake their orders...

As the clock hit 6AM it was time to open the bakery.

-🎶-

Minori started to work at the bakery for a few hours until Haruka Showed up and the customers gasped at her appearance...

"Oh my god it's the Kiritani's daughter who was born as a devil..!"

A customer muttered

"Yeah she looks way more different on Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy that's where she studies"

A student of Kamiyama spoke as well

-🐧-

Of course... people recognized me by being Gothic and creepy of course

"Who owns this place"

I demanded the people in the bakery

"I-Its the Hanasatos Miss!"

My expression changed to a shock

Hanasato?, isn't that Minori's last name?

"H-Haruka!"

I noticed that Minori was covered in flour and dough and she looked cute wait Cute?! Snap out of it Haruka you're not here to flirt!

"Ah Minori!"

-☘️-

I smiled at Haruka

"...hehe um this is um unexpected!"

"No worries Minori I never knew you would work here"

I noticed that Haruka looks so pretty with the style Gothic

"Say do you want to help me?"

Haruka gave me a shock expression for a few seconds as she nodded

"Of course Minori I'll help"

"Great Follow me to the back!"

I made Haruka follow me to the back aka the kitchen so we can make the pastries together!

And I heard the bell ring and it was Toya and Tsukasa!

They came to help me with the customers as they wore the aprons

Of course they were part timers in the bakery

"Minori?"

I looked at Haruka she was looking at Toya

"What Is it Haruka-Chan?"

"Well...That Boy Does he work here?"

"Oh he's a Daily Part time worker I mean he's my friend after all!"

"...."

I looked at Haruka with a confused Look on my face

"A Friend of mine is always talking about that boy And Kamishiro The same thing as well"

"I see Do they know them?"

"Oh Shinonome and Kamishiro?,yeah they both do know them"

"Hehe No worries Haruka-Chan!"

—🐧—

I see why Minori always smiles and she's....Adorable when she smiles

Wait wait Adorable?!,No way! She's just a friend just like that....

And we both turn around to see Shiho Kohane along side with Mizuki and Ena

"Shiho!,Kohane!"

Minori Ran towards them and gave them a hug

"Minori-chan heh your happy to see us huh?"

Kohane smiled softly at Minori And Shiho Smiled at Both of them

—☘️—

"Yep Totally I missed you two So much!,how's your shows going?"

"Like the usual Airi and Kanade Are doing pretty good if you ask me"

Shiho rubbed behind her neck as we both looked at Kohane

"Well...Emu & Mizuki and Saki are doing pretty neat—!"

"Hey I'm here you know!"

Mizuki comes in to the conversation

"I never Knew Toya-kun and Tsukasa-senpai Work here"

"Oh they are just part time workers here of course"

Minori Blushed out of embarrassment

As she giggled it off

Ena also came into the conversation

"Hey you're the girl who shows up on TV are you the leader of the Pegasus Exploration Team?"

—🎶—

Minori Beamed as she got recognized by someone

"Yeah I am! I'm Minori Hanasato nice to meet you!"

"Ena Shinonome a member of Food Hunt in the Primitive Forest"

"Woah you're amazing Ena-san!"

Minori and her friends started to get along very well...

—☘️—

I wonder if we could hangout as A Friend group...

[Thursday 11:45 AM] - Rooftop, Kamiyama High School :･ﾟ✧:･ﾟ✧

Home || Prev! || Log || Next!

⭒❃.✮:▹Loading Complete / / /

“We discussed a few things yesterday.” Rui looks up to him, chewing on a bite of chicken, golden eyes intrigued and urging him to go on. “Stuff for the new show.”

The taller boy swallowed down his food. “And what “new stuff” were they?”

“Schematics mostly.”

Tsukasa is torn. He loves what they came up with yesterday. Bringing them to life would be a dream come true. But last night, he thought about it more. Would they be raising the stakes too high? What if they pour all the time, effort, money, and excitement they could in this show and were unable to deliver.

Don’t get him wrong, he will put his all into this show!

But what if his all isn’t enough?

What if he’s leading them into a failure-

“Tsukasa-kun.” Rui’s gentle voice is like a calming blanket to his buzzing mind. He waits for Tsukasa to continue, everso patient. He edges his fingers closer to Tsukasa’s, not quite touching. Simply inviting.

Tsukasa tangles their fingers together. “We had a bunch of ideas to make cool things for the show. It has raised the budget a bit, but Emu says she wants to handle it. I…For the most part we have a plan for the adjustments but! There's one part that needs your help. Well, actually more like an idea for if you’re up to trying something.”

“My, Tsukasa-kun” Rui chuckles warmly. His index finger taps against the back of Tsukasa’s palm. Tap tap tap. “You know I’m always excited to try something.” His other hand sneakily closes up his lunchbox. Tsukasa could see cabbage and carrots, barely even nibbled on.

“You didn’t finish your lunch,” he could help but point out, reaching out for the bento but Rui smiles tightly and pulls it further away.

“What was the idea, Tsukasa-kun?”

“Give me that.” He shuffles to reach out further and the bento is pulled even farther.

“Tsukasa-kun, I don’t understand why you’re so interested in my lunch. You can’t still be hungry, you haven’t finished yours yet!”

“Rui, you need to eat your vegetables!” He huffs, settling back to his former spot and pulling his lunch closer again.

“I ate three of the carrots and a whole leaf!” Rui laughs, the sound soft and airy. He leans against Tsukasa’s shoulder and tightens his hold on Tsukasa’s hand.

“Congratulations. Still not enough though. Most of the vegetables were still there!” He makes himself comfortable, firmly grasping Rui’s hand back. “Anyways,”

“My, giving up already?”

He rolls his eyes, picking up a decently sized bite of his lunch. “It’s not like you’ll eat them. Besides, the thing we wanted to try, it’s kind of important.”

“Ah yes. Schematics, right?

“We decided to make me and Emu fly over the audience. For the spectacle.” He begins to explain. “So the harnesses and all the lift equipment need to be reinforced and double-checked.”

Rui nods. “Mm, mm. Wouldn’t want either of you falling onto an audience member. I think I can fix a few things up…add a bit more safety precautions, definitely. Anything else?”

Costumes? “We’re planning to add some lights to the costumes. Nothing too heavy though. Can you just, like, do maintenance for them throughout production? Just to make sure they’ll be functioning.”

“My, Tsukasa-kun, is that not part of my job?” Rui grins.

“No, it shouldn’t be, director.” Tsukasa teases, fully aware that yes. It is.

Rui breaks into soft laughter. “But it is, especially in this economy? In any case, you shouldn’t be taking on more work than you should, lead role.”

The two giggle amongst themselves. Lighthearted teasing. They loved the jobs. They did despite how much more they had to do. It may be small with the four of them spread out in the production but they loved it.

Rui rests on the top of Tsukasa’s head as the blond continues to finish up his lunch. It was almost halfway through lunch period, so they’d have to finish up if they wanted to test out the little robots Rui prepped up for the show. Not that he wanted to rush Tsukasa, not when he was just a few more bites from finishing.

“Anything else?” He asks, might as well get everything out.

Tsukasa takes his final bite before beginning to clean and pack up his bento. “There’s the rotating ship,” he says as he chews. Rui dabs at his cheek with a handkerchief. “But we’re putting that in the hands of actual engineers. Just do maintenance again, since you’re going to be in charge of the direction already.”

Rui hums, sitting up just as Tsukasa does. “I can do that. How’s the choreo, by the way? Practices start after this weekend”

“Hm…about halfway done.” Maybe a little more, but he wanted to run through a few more things. “You’re gonna have to run through them a bit, though, to see if it fits, you know.”

“I’m sure what you came up with is fine.” Rui smiles before resting his cheek on Tsukasa’s temple. The intimacy makes him blush and he leans into it. “Our star has never disappointed, afterall.”

Yeah. He does not disappoint. “I’ll do my best as always.” He smiles back. “I did promise to give my 2000%!. Now , come on, Rui, what kind of things have come up with this time?”

•••

[collectalong]

" EMMMUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! " Tsukasa's voice boomed across the courtyard. A blond, energetic blur dashed across the general city greenery before skidding to a loud, almost cartoonish halt in front of the small pinkette. A big, proud grin greeted her eyes. He seemed to be holding onto something, though it was hard to tell exactly what -- Tsukasa seemed to be partially hiding it behind his back, with only half of it peeking out to the side. If anyone would have to guess, though, considering the day and time of year . . . well, it was pretty obvious he seemed to be forgoing any sort of subtlety. Then again, secret - keeping wasn't really his strong suit either ; it was as likely he was trying as much as he wasn't. Didn't really matter either way.

" emu!! there you are!! i see you're still present. a ha ha ha ha!!! my timing couldn't be more perfect then! i was worried you would have sped off back to Kamiyama if i wasn't fast enough, but my speed seems to have grown to preternatural levels! such a sprint though was no sweat for a star such as myself! but, enough about that! emu! do you know what day it is today?! "

Tsukasa was practically bouncing on the balls of his feet, his smile widening by the second. " why, it's the 14th of February! which means! it is Valentine's Day!! of course, i know you will probably have a surprise for us in the coming near future, but i couldn't let you have all the glory! i have come to give you a surprise myself, and i am sure you will be most pleased! are you ready?! "

He allowed her a moment to respond before pushing out a simple, but elegant - looking box of Valentine sweets into her hands. The gift in and of itself didn't seem much to look at -- it was very clearly he had gotten a variety pack of chocolates from one of the nearby stores in the area -- but it wasn't the chocolates that were the gifts. Rather, it was what was he put inside the box to surprise her with he was looking most forward to -- a beautifully drawn hand - made ticket to a special event for that evening at the Tenma household. It was to a certain show put on by a certain star for a certain guest of honor, the beholder of the ticket herself! Free of not only admission, but participation too. That would mean his show could go any which way, totally unplanned, but a star had to be ready for any contingencies! And he knew a show wouldn't be as fun if it were just him to perform it, after all.

" happy valentine's day, emu!!! " he yelled with far too much enthusiasm.

"uweh?!"

if this were any normal person, they would surely be taken over by tsukasa's overwhelming energy. it's the sort of thing he's best at, drawing a chorus of turned heads and overshadowing each and every one who looks.

and yet! yet! this is no normal person!

the initial confusion quickly melts away on her face as emu practically leaps from her preplanned path with an arms-wide, "WON-WON-WONDERHOY, TSUKASA-KUUUN!"

she nearly went into a spiel about how she wishes it was later already, as that's the only time she can give her gifts, but tsukasa's on a warpath, and before long, emu finds herself mirroring his bouncing and smiling too.

"uoh? uoh?! UOH?!"

and the gift...!

she's honestly just as excited to see the cheap chocolates as she is the ticket. both earn an almost ear-piercing squeal of delight—stars in her eyes, mouth agape in wondrous joy.

emu is so excited, in fact, that the lid goes back on. because she backs up to all-but-tackle tsukasa.

"IT'S APPET-AZING, TSUKASA-KUN!" she yells, clinging onto him like a koala. "heheh! happy-dappy valentine's day! ♡ but watch out, watch out!! i got a gift for you, and everyone that's JUST as woah-woah-wAWEsome!! hehehe! i wonder what role we'll all play! should i bring my gift to your house?!"

More things that happen in my April Fools AU (aka NPC Units AU (yes some of these may be repeats but I don't caaaare and we do go into some heavy-ish stuff, but considering the AU and the actual canon, it's to be expected))

Gonna focus on the characters from the OG Units (L/n, MMJ, VBS, WxS, and 25ji) for this <3

While MORE MORE JUMP never forms, Minori and Haruka still end up getting close since Minori will often practice dancing with Haruka.

It takes a while, but eventually Haruka will publicly dance with Minori. You can often find them slow dancing in a park :)

Saki transfers to Kamiyama and is placed into Akito's homeroom.

Tsukasa has pretty much put stardom on the back burner. He's too busy taking care of not one, but three siblings (Saki, Toya, and now Emu). They're his priority right now.

Hinata began sleeping in Emu's room after she ranaway. She used to do it only a few times, but it wasn't until after her and her brothers semi reunion with Emu that she began to do it daily.

Hinata feels like she's failed as a sister after she, Shousuke, and Kaisuke were kicked out of the Tenma household by Tsukasa. Before they fully left, she was able to catch a glimpse into the house she had escorted out of via a window. It hurt to see her baby sister feel more at home with strangers, no, with her friends, than she did with her own family. She saw Tsukasa comfort her sister and they were eventually joined by two others. A boy and girl. How funny, Emu found two new brothers and a new sister. New siblings who would care for her. Hinata left before they could catch her looking on.

Emu does eventually accept the new Wonder Stage. She didn't want to, but after talking with her friends and with Sakurako, she decided to take back the stage that had been ripped away from her.

Toya has a room at the Tenma's, however it's not unexpected for him to sleep in Tsukasa's room. Sometimes he'll sleep in Saki's.

Honami wants to rekindle the friendship she had with Ichika, Saki, and Shiho. But it's hard.

Shizuku picks up boxing after she has an emotional and mental meltdown. The way her old idol group treated her, combined with: stress of keeping a fake persona, doing well in school, her work as a model, and who knows what else, it was shocking to those in the archery club when she just...broke one day. They wanted to help, but weren't sure how.

Mafuyu was the one in the end to help Shizuku. It was no surprise to her when she heard that Shizuku would not be returning to school for a while. She just hoped Shizuku was able to find help in a way she couldn't find it for herself.

Mafuyu finds comfort in Kanade petting her hair, moreso after Saki Tenma cleaned up the disaster of a haircut she gave herself. Maybe, just maybe, this is what people meant when they said some people felt safe.

The hair petting feeling nice and comforting was surprising because Mafuyu's mother also does it and when she does it, it makes Mafuyu feel uncomfortable, especially as she gets older. It was, okay (?) as a kid, but now? It doesn't feel....well...she's not sure what it felt like as a kid. So when Kanade began doing it, and it didn't fill Mafuyu up with dread, she can't help but wonder why.

Shiho joins Shizuku in boxing. She has a lot of pent up emotions she needs to let go. Coming home to her sister looking utterly defeated, the amount of other students pushing the blame onto her for any friendships of her failing, Saki and Ichika leaving Miya Girls for good, and feeling like her own dreams are so far out of reach was putting a toll on her.

Shiho spends more and more time with Shizuku. Even if they aren't doing anything, she has to be next to her sister. She often wonders if this is how Tsukasa feels whenever Saki has gone to hospital and returned home. Knowing their sisters are okay, but still needing that reassurance that they're still with them.

Ichika is taking classes online. While they don't have the same teacher, she does take classes from the online school Kanade attends.

Tsukasa caught Nene reading lines on the roof. She was practicing to help Rui with the shows he does on his own. Robo-Nene helps him and Nene's fine with staying hidden.

Nene thinks he's going to say something, but he doesn't. He just gives a quick apology and leaves. When she tells Rui, he tells her how it was known for Tsukasa to do a lot of acting in the school plays and how often other students saw him auditioning for shows outside of school. It was actually extremely surprising when the self-proclaimed "World Future Star" stopped.

Because they share the same homeroom, Nene asks Toya if he knows Tsukasa and if he could tell her why he stopped auditioning. Part of her wanted to know if they had similar experiences, wanting to perform but no longer being able to.

Toya knew Tsukasa had given up auditioning in order to care for him, Saki, and Emu, but he didn't know he stopped auditioning for the school's plays. It wasn't until Nene asked him about it that he became aware of it.

Saki begins wearing her hair in braids when she begins attending Kamiyama High School. She will wear her hair in pigtails once in a while, but she felt the change was necessary. She always wore pigtails, especially when she went out with her friends, but, well...

She likes Akito, much to his surprise. She'll often go to him if she needs help and can't find Tsukasa or Toya.

Toya thinks it's nice Akito is making more friends :) (Akito: We're not friends, she's like....like...I don't know, a....a fungus that won't go away Saki:.....am I a cute fungus? :) Akito: AAAH- SEE?! SHE WON'T LEAVE!!)

She won't ever tell him, but Ena is saving up to rent an apartment for herself and Akito. Once she's able to live on her own, she's taking her little brother and getting the fuck out of their father's home. And once they were gone, they would cut contact with him and never return. Never.

Translation: Wonderlands x Showtime Main Story Ch. 18 [The Answer of “The Best Show”]

Translation under the cut!

Past Classmate: What is that. There’s no way we can do something like that, are you stupid? Be serious.

Past Classmate: Aren’t you just having fun with making us go through dangerous situations?

Past Classmate: ...I can’t keep up with you anymore...

Kamiyama Street

Rui: .........

Rui: So all of you decided to ambush me? I’m sorry, but you can’t change what I think.

Tsukasa: ...There’s something I want you to see.

Rui: It doesn’t matter what you show me. I told you. I’m not going to do shows with you...

Emu: Eeeei!! I caught you, Rui-kun!

Nene: E...ei!

Rui: Emu-kun? Nene, you too...?

Emu: Do it, Tsukasa-kun!

Tsukasa: Ah! I’ll have you see it, Rui! These... are my true feelings!!

Rui: ...!?

The Wonderland Sekai

Rui: This is the place we came to before...?

Miku: Hello, everyone ♪ Tonight's show is a special one that’ll put a smile on everyone’s faces~ ♪

KAITO: Now everyone, are you ready to make the audience smile?

Tsukasa: Ah!! Of course!!

Miku: In a faraway land, there was an eccentric traveling theater troupe~ ♪

Miku: In the troupe was a leader who craved attention, a jester who wouldn’t listen to what others had to say, and a diva who couldn’t sing in front of people!

Miku: Since those were its members, not many people came to the troupe’s shows!

Miku: ...But one day, the troupe met an alchemist who did shows by himself in the woods by chance ♪

Leader: “Your shows are wonderful! If we do shows with you, we’ll be sure to gather a large crowd and become a popular troupe!”

Alchemist: “...Who are you?”

Leader: “Alchemist, I want to create shows! Won’t you lend me your strength?”

Leader: “I’ll be sure to make it a fun show!!”

Alchemist: “A show... ...I see. Then I’ll lend you some of my strength.”

Jester: “Yay! Let’s work hard together!”

Diva: “...I, I wonder if I’ll be able to sing...!”

Rui: Nene...

Miku: The alchemist made the diva who couldn’t sing in front of people a doll that would deliver her singing voice to the people for her.

Miku: And he even made devices that could produce lightning, wind, and even a dragon mechanism!

Miku: However, the doll broke during the show, and the show failed completely!

Leader: “Ah, to think that you would make such a terrible mistake! It’s all your fault!”

Miku: As the leader lost his temper, he stole the smiles away from everyone else...

Miku: And the troupe disbanded.

Miku: But when the leader was by himself, suddenly, he started to feel very lonely. Even though it was so much fun when he was doing the show...

Miku: And then a cute fairy appeared ♪

Fairy: “Why do you do shows? Don’t you actually want to see everyone’s smiling faces?”

Rui: ...!

Leader: “...That’s right, I...”

Miku: The leader remembered what it was like when he first started to do shows, and reflected upon his attacking of his comrades.

Leader: “I wanted to be like the star of the show I saw that day. That star that put a smile on my sister and I’s face.”

Leader: “I had forgotten it somewhere along the line. But I’ve finally remembered!”

Leader: “I...I want everyone to smile. So I want to do shows again with everyone!”

Rui: ............

Miku: The leader apologized sincerely and his comrades rejoined him. But the alchemist cannot bring himself to believe the leader.

Miku: “The leader does not want to do shows. He just wants to become a popular star.” He thinks.

Rui: .............

Miku: But the leader thought hard about how to get the alchemist back... and so,

Miku: He put on a show for the alchemist. After going all-out, the leader calls out to him.

Leader: “...Ah, that’s right. My dream is to become a star. But I want to be a star that makes everybody smile!”

Leader: “The audience will smile, and my comrades will smile! A star to me is someone who puts on the best show like that!”

Leader: “I want you to believe me! This time around, we’ll make everyone smile with a show!”

Tsukasa: ...So won’t you do shows with me again?

Rui: ..............

KAITO: ...Now, what do you think the alchemist did?

Rui: Eh? Isn’t that role your role...

KAITO: No. I’m just a stand-in that’ll leave now. And the story after this point hasn’t been decided.

Rui: ...........

Rui: Did you think that you would get your feelings across if it were through a show?

Tsukasa: Ah, that’s right!

Tsukasa: I’ve always been receiving so much from shows. I would watch them and be so moved, so excited...! My dream of “I’ll become a star and make everyone smile” is from shows, too!!

Tsukasa: So I thought that if I was going to convey my true feelings to you, it needed to be through a show!!

Rui: .........

Tsukasa: Rui!! Please do shows with me!! Please!!

Rui: ..........

Rui: ...Fufu.

Rui: The audience and your comrades smile... the best show, huh. Not bad.

Rui: But there’s still much more to be desired. You can’t move someone’s heart with just vigor.

Tsukasa: ...........

Rui: Now— What kind of stage direction should I put in? Tsukasa-kun.

Tsukasa: Eh...?

Nene: That means...

Emu: M-maybe...!?

Tsukasa: Rui...!

Rui: Oya oya, don’t mistake me for someone else. I’m not Rui.

Rui: I’m an alchemist.
