care to spoil any interesting dialogue Haku has when you reach higher affinity levels? Would love to know!

Haku's so. . .normal, it's kinda cute? Lol. But yeah I'm pretty down for that! I wanted to share one of these things but held my tongue lolol but since you're asking here're some of the ones that were more interesting or otherwise appealing to me!

Affinity 4:

"...Hate to be the one to tell you this, but there's something untoward lingering behind you. Don't look!

Hah, I was just kidding. It was just a little dust, see?"

Affinity 10:

"Your parents ever tell you ghosts would get you if you don't go to bed?

For some reason Zenji's the only one who gets spooked when I say that..."

Affinity 11:

"All these geniuses and their lectures are giving me heartburn.

Wouldn't mind hearing the woes of someone long-suffering instead every once in a while."

(this sounds cruel but from what i can tell in Japanese he says he'd rather hear stories about hard workers/people who struggled from the bottom than prodigies. Basically he's more interested in, y'know, ordinary folks than people who're really special.)

Affinity 12:

"That video I took of Zenji today?

I'm just going to do some quick editing and post it. I don't know why he doesn't just focus on content that's more his style..."

Affinity 17:

"Getting cold feet when you try to jump into the deep end is just proof you're a normal human being. We're the crazy ones."

Affinity 19:

"Just having someone you care about at your side is all you really need...

Ha ha. That was a little out of character, huh? My bad."

Affinity 22:

"None of us wanted to become like this. Living an ordinary life, and dying an ordinary death—

why go after more than that?"

He just wants to be normal. And he can't. It's kinda tragic lol

Affinity 24:

"Being cursed really sucks, huh? You can't help but ask yourself, "Why me?" all the time, even when you know it's a question with no answer."

And my favorite line, at 25(max) affinity:

"I know I'm being selfish—

but sometimes, I wish you'd just forget about me..."

WHY. . .ARE YOU THE SUS ONE AND YOU FEEL BAD THAT YOU'LL BETRAY THEM? DO YOU JUST FEEL LIKE YOU'RE TOO LUCKY HAVING HAD FALLEN FOR SOMEONE NORMAL WHEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT NORMAL ANYMORE? DO YOU FEEL LIKE THE PC DESERVES SOMEONE NORMAL AND TO BE ABLE TO GO BACK TO A NORMAL LIFE BUT BEING WITH YOU GUARANTEES THEY WON'T? WHY DO YOU WANT THEM TO FORGET YOU. . .he's so interesting to me simply because of how much he tries to keep himself apart from his being a ghoul(and, y'know, seeing spirits and shit--) so he can try and just be any other guy. . .and he can't lol his surroundings, who and what he is, he can't go back to being normal! It's a charming way to have a boy next door sort of personality i think lol

And since there are other interesting voicelines. . . . . . .

Seasons and holidays aren't affinity locked, so you can see these when they're available(although i didn't label which time they're available at, just the season lol.)

Spring(March-May):

"I've been noticing more birds in the garden lately. Is that a bush warbler? A white-eye, maybe? A lot going on during spring in Hotarubi."

Boy knows his birbs.

"Must be nice being a ghost—no hayfever, and no hangovers. Spring really is the embodiment of human weakness."

How drunk did you get last night buddy. . . .

"My family home is pretty famous in our area for its cherry blossoms... When I was a kid, my friends and I used to go exploring through them at night."

Summer(starts June, ends August):

"It's so humid... Days like this make me miss Frostheim..."

He's former Frostheim! He does have a voice line that mentions not having spoken to Tohma recently too, but that he seems busy as usual.

"You're not going to wear a yukata?

Eh, I just thought it'd be cute to see. That's the kind of thing guys think about, don't know what else to tell you."

It reads like he's a little disappointed the girl he's into friends with isn't gonna wear something he thinks is cute lol (i'd see if he sounds disappointed in the audio but since i don't have haku's sr the game didn't download the audio for me lol)

Autumn(September-November):

"They say fall is the season of the arts, but I'm a really mediocre flute player. I'm about as uncultured as you can get."

Winter(December-February):

"You'll catch a cold dressed like that. It's already pretty chilly out there, you know...

Here, take my coat."

"Winter rain really chills you to the bone. Sorry, walking through the garden must be rough for you this time of year. Come a little closer."

I'm a bit of a sucker for huddling together in the cold lol

"It's cold again today. Now that I think of it, Subaru said he wanted to make hotpot with everyone. Guess I'll go grab some things and make it happen."

"Your hands hurt because of the cold? Let me see.

Oh yeah, your fingertips are all red. Here, stick them in my pockets."

Is that your flute in your pocket or are you completely unaffected by the cold

Halloween:

"Looks like you've had your fair share of tricks today.

I'll narrow down your options and just make it a treat, then."

Christmas:

"You look like you're having fun. Do you have a present for me, Little Miss Santa?

Haha, I'm just kidding. Here you go. Merry Christmas."

When you haven't logged in for at least a day, between the hours of 5am and 3pm(? I've gotten these messages with Taiga after being away for like two hours so i may be misunderstanding the condition):

"Hey there, stranger. Everyone's missed you, you know.

...Even I was starting to get a little worried."

Those're the ones that're most interesting to me I think! 'u' there are some that aren't up there though, like some of the ones that show him being responsible and worrying about his teammates haha. Hope you don't mind my little commentary here and there!

his name is Rui bc I'm gonna RUIn that hole

[tokyodebunkermusings]

He was supposed to be sleeping by now--after all, he had aggressively (whether you liked it or not) stretched himself over your lap and made himself comfortable like one of the many cats roaming the campus. His cheek was nestled against your stomach. It was almost easy in that moment to forget that this guy was a raging, violent, murdery, trigger-happy bastard. The temptation to run your fingers through his hair had won over your better judgement.

"Did I say you could do that, Kitten?"

He grabbed your wrist, giving you his feral grin. "If you want attention that badly. I'll give it to you, just know I'll pet you wherever I want."

[tokyodebunkermusings]

Leo was not the one to be ignored. Not by his ghoul peers and certainly not by you---the boring, plain, and useless "honor student." Yet here he was getting the cold shoulder, the irritating silent treatment. His phone dings with each new notification from his socials, but at the moment it's the last thing he cares about. He tilts his head, eyes narrowing. "What the fuck is your problem?" Why are you even here? Are you waiting for Alan or Sho? "God, you're so gross. Get your ass over here and talk about your boring day at least."

[tokyodebunkermusings]

*looks at Jin and Alan* Rui I don't think you're his type

[tokyodebunkermusings]

So I don't wanna get in trouble for datamining but also I'm terrible for keeping things to myself so I'm gonna end up sharing some things anyway. For example, one that I remembered today that made me laugh.

Ritsu's 19 Affinity home screen dialogue:

"I just finished checking my recordings from today. You sighed a total of four times—

is something troubling you?"

And yeah we know he records everything and reviews it all at the end of the day(where does he find the time) but like

He is counting how many times you sigh in a day and checking on you if he deems it too many. That's kind of adorable and sweet in a borderline obsessive way. Like, he's giving accidental yandere behavior.

He probably doesn't know how to express himself in a non-professional way or dedicate himself to something or someone in a way that isn't a little obsessive since he's been studying to be a lawyer since he was young. Very little frame of reference for normal social behavior, the poor thing lol

Ello Chef! I would like some Alan head cannons for girl dinner today! 💖 How do you think he would fall for Mc and how would he try to win her heart? I wait patiently with my fork and knife thank you ☺️

We love a girl dinner around here! I got you fam!

ALAN MIDO

Okay so I said before that for Alan its easier for him to recognize when he feels something. That reason being is that when Alan feels, I think he feels those things but like INTENSELY.

He would fall for MC after some time and specifically on another mission. He would see how much they've grown and gained some more confidence in their ability and themselves.

I think he would find that attractive in its own right. He already was feeling a little something for MC by the end of their mission with Vagastrom, but seeing them NOW after all they've been through and the fact that they're STILL pushing through like a trooper? That does some things for our favorite himbo.

Alan knows he's not the smartest or the richest, so he tries to boost what he IS: the handiest.

He would try to win their heart by being as dependable as possible. He wouldn't necessarily be vulnerable until they're in a relationship. But he knows that all that crazy high school romance will eventually end and that they might want someone a bit more mature and capable.

Mature and capable is our mans to a T right here. Maybe not with tech but he will try his best and if not, he's never been afraid to confront his flaws in that sense.

A good example would be like: Mc comes in complaining that something in their dorm broke. Sure Jin might offer to pay to get it fixed or even buy a new one

But Alan beats him to it by fixing it himself. Mans handiwork is QUALITY too. Looks great, works even better than brand new somehow, etc.

With how strong his feelings are, he would even ask Sho for some pointers with cooking. I headcanon that he isn't the WORST cook amongst our boys thus far....but he's not up there with the best (i have a whole ass tier list for that if y'all want it lol)

[tokyodebunkermusings]

omg i love your sho headcanons <333 IF POSSIBLE can we get some sho romantic/boyfriend headcanons (i need more sho crumbs)

Thank you for sending in a request! I gotchu fam!

SHOHEI HAIZONO "SHO"

As a boyfriend I think Sho would like to show MC off or just show off to MC (I'm not sorry for that pun). By that I mean like bike rides, winking at them when he fights in the pit, cooking something special for them for lunch.

Yeah he's making them bento boxes. Even if he complains that its cliche as hell, he'll still do it. Partly because then he knows that they're getting all the nutrients they need as well as getting enough food in them. But it also gives him a lot of room to experiment in the kitchen and tweak his menu.

He takes his partners food critiques very seriously and he's always watching out for allergens or just things they dislike in food.

If his MC is a picky eater, he likes the challenge of making something they'll like even with steep limits. He'll complain about it, but he secretly loves it.

Despite that he WILL try to get them to eat some new foods. Just to 3xpand their flavor profile a little bit.

He's pretty affectionate but only in a less crowded setting. He's a tough biker guy after all. But if anyone DOES catch them together he overcompensates the tough a little bit. Its a bit of an insecurity I think.

[tokyodebunkermusings]

Im going feral.. saddening there's no fics of him.. I might need to get to writing..

[tokyodebunkermusings]

Very small sneak peek at the next fic to drop soon

[tokyodebunkermusings]

Taiga icons from Episode 4

Free to use anywhere

[tokyodebunkermusings]

Ok just finished episode 4 and yeah this is definitely a college considering the students are allowed to run a casino. The Chancellor does in fact punish rule breakers and Ritsu himself would threaten to rain legal hellfire upon the island if there was illegal underage gambling going on so the first years are def around the 18-19 range or else they wouldn't be allowed to enter Taiga's territory and there's definitely first years in that casino

So in Episode 4 we see Haru and Romeo drinking at Rui's bar, and in Japan the legal drinking age is 20, so I'm thinking this is more of a college. Haru doesn't seem the type to break a lot of rules or laws, and I doubt the Chancellor would allow too much illegal activity on the island (considering there's a casino and they have laws about underage gambling too).

I'm gonna say the first years are around 18/19, second years are 19/20, and third years are 20/21, with fourth years graduating at 21-22.

In one of Towa's chibi scenes he offers you two flowers. He gets a little upset if you pick the hydrangea but gets happy if you pick the lily.

Hydrangea's symbolism can be many things from boastfulness, to gratitude and heartfelt emotions. In Japan they can also symbolize apologies and often given when asking for forgiveness or showing gratitude.

A lily's symbolism is purity, innocence, love, and fertility. In Japan they also symbolize renewal and rebirth. They're also associated with the Buddhism meaning of enlightenment.

That being said I probably won't write actual smut for the first years anyway, I'll keep their fics and headcanons more PG/PG13
