“Ouch! You go straight for the jugular with these questions, don’t ya?

Ahh, damn, okay, I guess I gotta answer this. It’s gonna be a long story, y’know. (sighs) The most underhanded thing I’ve done… is sabotaging my best friend’s marriage. See, I fell in love with her… and her husband. God, this is killing me. But I loved them both. I wanted them both. I just didn’t want them together. And leave me behind. I… sold them out to their enemies. I betrayed them.

Yuusuke was my boss, Ayako was my best friend. We’ve known each other since high school. They look like the nicest people, but we were in some pretty nasty shit together, mafia and gangs and all that. The thing is, they didn’t know I worked for their enemy. I didn’t think it was a big deal, I’d sell them out once they trusted me, I’d get promoted, and that was that. Problem was, I fell in love. With both of them. Before I knew it, I couldn’t stop.

Yuusuke and Ayako were engaged when he sent her back to Japan against her will, to keep her safe. And he asked me to look after her. That was the worst idea Yuusuke ever had. I tried to be a good friend. I really did. But it was all too easy. Yuusuke trusted me, Ayako didn’t suspect my intentions at all (she still thought I was gay), and I took advantage of their deteriorating relationship and played them right into it. I broke them apart, little by little, convinced them it was all for the better. Whenever things started to look better for them, all I had to do was leak more information to my real bosses and sure enough, Yuusuke would get into deeper trouble and distance himself even more. Ayako cried. A lot. And eventually, they agreed to break off their engagement. Yuusuke, damn martyr he was, asked me to help Ayako move on. He knew I loved her. He also knew I loved him. There was no way I was gonna say no.

So I crippled Yuusuke emotionally and I got Ayako. Mission accomplished, right? Wrong. What I didn’t know, was that Ayako never gave up. I thought I had her completely, 5,000 miles apart, hardly any communication, what can they do? But Ayako, damn Ayako, found a way to get back at their enemies, without ever telling me or Yuusuke, and soon enough Yuusuke was out of the hole. And I guess he learned his lesson by now cos it didn’t take him long to show up at her door.

And that’s when it hit the fan. Because Ayako, during her secret escapades, found out about me. Whom I really worked for. What I had done. Suddenly, I was their enemy. 

It was all over. God that was the shittiest feeling ever…but the worst part is, I knew they’d forgive me if I asked. They’re the kind of people I loved, after all. But the people I worked for, wouldn’t. There was no turning back. So I made sure I showed them my true colors, and disappeared.

I thought that was it. But my former boss Angelika, now my partner, never forgot about them. She used me as a hostage (she actually had her men shoot at me that fucking bitch!) and eventually hunted them down. I was in tears. I never agreed to this. And I never would’ve thought, after all these years, they still cared about me. I was on my knees, begging Angelika, I’d be her slave, I’d do anything. She pretended not to hear and gunned down my friends in front of me.

10 Flaws: Yuusuke Akabane

1) He’s a crybaby. He thinks about his missing family and he cries. This is understandable. But put on a scary movie or have his wife call him long-distance and instantly the tears start welling up.

2) His sweet tooth. His love for everything sweet provides job security for dental professionals in the area. He will put sugar in anything--anything, that goes into his mouth. For this reason, his wife Ayako keeps sugar in the bedroom.

3) He’s a goody-two shoes. No, Ayako, you can’t drink beer on a Sunday because you guys gotta go to church. No, you can’t have sex before marriage. And don’t swear, either. It’s like living with a monk, honestly.

4) He possibly has a martyr complex. His willingness to sacrifice his own happiness for others borders on this. Which is why it took so long for him to get married--he has trouble taking what he wants for himself. And then he suffers and cries by himself later. He holds himself back. A lot.

5) He has a hard time making friends. He’s a pretty cool guy to hang out with and just as friendly as the next person, but with everything that happened to him in the past, he tends to put up walls without realizing it. His smiles are a little shallow and there’s something sinister about him it’s hard to put a finger on it.

6) He takes stupid pictures of everything. Cats, food, uncles...He tries to be cute with his selfies but his poses are just awfully lame.

7) He is inherently sadistic. Given, he constantly keeps his S side suppressed and his wife is seriously trying to bring it out in the bedroom and good god this woman has no idea what she’s asking for.

8) He has the musical tastes of an old man. He only knows songs from before the 80′s and his collection is composed largely of enka and musicals. Lots of musicals.

9) He cannot stay out of danger. Can’t? Won’t. He’s generally a peaceful guy but he always finds himself coming back to the underworld. He tells himself it’s to find his parents but if he’s honest, he would admit that he enjoys the occasional bloodbath.

@simsmonogatari 10 facts about Yuusuke, here you go~

1) He’s the youngest child, preceded by a brother and a sister. His dad’s a former businessman who switched to organized crime, while his mom’s rumored to be a hired gun. Quite an interesting family; unfortunately, they were all killed, leaving him to be raised by his uncles.

2) He was initially sent to Spain to hide from his parents’ enemies, but he later decided a quiet life isn’t for him.

3) By day, he is a high-powered businessman. By night, he dabbles in underworld affairs, trying to find clues about his family’s disappearance.

4) Given his background, he has surprisingly high moral standards. He generally avoids unnecessary violence and loves to go to church. He’s a good guy who looks after his buddies. That said, he still enjoys a good fight, and is astonishingly good with firearms.

5) He is happily married to his old friend and business partner Ayako. He waited a loooooong time for her, though.

6) Patient and kind and a complete gentleman, but left to himself his personality shifts to his dark, self-loathing, cynical side. Deep down he’s a total S, especially in the bedroom.

7) His eyes are heterochromic. Right eye of a light purple, left eye red. He’s practically blind without his glasses.

8) He has a ridiculous sweet tooth. He puts sugar in just about everything.

9) He is an incredible singer and wanted to be an actor as a teen, but eventually chose to go the business route instead to work for his uncles and gain influence in the underworld.

Kuroudo: Good evening, Anonymous-san. I heard you have a question for me? About my hair? Oh yes. It is getting quite long, now that you’ve pointed it out. Work has been so busy that I’ve simply neglected to have it trimmed. It can be quite a nuisance when I’m in the middle of a transport or a fight. Perhaps I shall cut it once I’ve found a formidable opponent, hmm? I find the thought of slicing up my opponent along with my hair to be quite romantic.

Thank you for your ask, dear anon! I would love to reply, but I have at least 50 characters. Who would you like to answer? Or did you want to ask everybody? Ahaha~

Well, of course it has crossed my mind. I'm so used to having Zodiac around and being there as my dad I guess that I don't have this empty hole in my life like you would expect? I do wonder where he is, how he is doing, if he wonders about me. If he has any other kids, you know?
