TW: Canonical character death, Akechi being Akechi but in the more murdery way than I meant it last week, a 14 year old justifies becoming an assassin to himself in what is probably the most literal way possible.

Wakaba Isshiki’s Shadow falls to the ground, petals from her – it’s? It’s is probably the better way to think about this – more monstrous form scatter about Goro.

Day 23: Broken Pedestal

how many times have I conceded?

“When you were a kid, did you look up to your dad?” An asks, suddenly.

It’s their first day back at school after the confrontation with Taiga, and Akito’s busy during lunch, so it’s just the two of them, alone in a crowded cafeteria.

“A few months ago, I would have said no,” Toya admits, between bites of lunch. “But if I’m being honest? There was a time when I was young I would have called him the best musician in the world. I looked forward to going to his shows, seeing him play in crowded concert halls for thousands of people, bring them to tears, it made me proud.”

“When did it stop?”

Toya closes his eyes. “I think, I was at a concert of his with Mother, and he performed, and Mother was driven to tears, and I felt nothing. He’d always called classical the greatest gift to mankind, the best way of expressing emotions, and here I was not feeling anything. All I could think of after that was how stiff and rigid I was. My father called me perfect as always, and I wasn’t, and that was the moment I let myself think ‘father is wrong’ for the first time.

“I’d thought I didn’t want to practice, or wished I could be more like the Tenmas, but I never thought he was wrong until that moment. From there it just…”

“All fell away?” An says. “Like now all of a sudden you’re only seeing the dark parts of everything he did?”

Toya nods. “Exactly.”

“Yeah,” An says. “I’ve been thinking about it, trying to come to terms with the fact that Dad never told me about Aunt Nagi, that he didn’t let me know she was sick, that he let me think she was coming back.”

Toya doesn’t offer her any hollow sympathies, he simply motions for An to keep going.

“He was wrong,” An says. “They all were, I mean. Why would you want to spend the last moments of your life lying to your niece? Why would you want to hear your daughter talk about everything she’s going to tell someone she’s never going to see again? Why would you take your sister’s dying wish to support the next generation and just shatter it?”

“Yes,” Toya says. “They were wrong.”

With those three words, An feels a weight she didn’t know she was carrying come off her chest. “You know, when I was little I thought Dad didn’t love me because he was so busy performing. And after I ran away, everyone talked about how much he cared about me, and how happy he was to hear me sing. They made a point of it. And they all did it while knowing he was keeping me in the dark. So how could he love me when he can’t even be honest with me?”

“I wish I had the answer to that.” Toya says. “How can they love us when they don’t listen, how an they love us when they don’t consider our feelings?”

“He does, though,” An asks. “Right?”

“He does,” Toya admits, “but it never makes it better.”

“Yep,” An pops some chicken into her mouth. “It never makes it better.”

Hey, here's a fun new game. Put "📓" or some other version of a book emoji into my inbox and I'll explain the plot of a fanfiction that I haven't written but daydream about.

Your mystery question is here! :)

Moon: Does your character have a dark side? What makes their dark side come out?

Hello there! I’m going to do this for… *quickly DMs Alto*

Schuyler Tate Sr, my OC for Sky’s dad!

I think he definitely has a dark side. He’s very cheery and friendly, but that’s an active choice. He pretty much actively represses all negative emotions and prides himself on his self-control. His own father was abusive to him and his mother, so he’d never lay hands on anyone unless it was a last resort. It’s what makes him a good Power Ranger, since he’d never escalate a situation.

There’s one berserk button though. His son. The thought of anything happening to Sky makes him snap like a glowstick, despite his pride in his self-control. He wouldn’t snap at his father for what he did to him, but if he ever came near Sky, he’d black out.

(And he did, in my fic, Control)

trick or treat!! :3c

You get…

And then Arata throws the door open.

“You’re not actually breaking up with me, right?” Arata says, voice cracking, and Souma’s eyes widen.

“Oh, come on, Arata. I was kidding, I’m not actually breaking up with you.”

Arata walks over and practically dives into Souma’s bed, his hands grabbing the back of Souma’s jacket.

And suddenly, Souma feels really pathetic for getting so upset over something so stupid.

“I’m sorry for scaring you.”

“I’m sorry for giving her ammunition to use in your fights.” Arata responds, muffled by Souma’s shoulder.

“Nah, it’s not that big of a deal, really. I’ll just write another set of imagines to piss her off more.”
