Radiance: "Oh, hi, there! I bet you didn't know that ponies grew on trees! They don't, but I bet you didn't know that!" Maple: "No... I guess I didn't... are you okay?"

Radiance is a wonderfully friendly pony who's eager to meet new friends. However, this can distract from important tasks like... landing safely. Good thing that she, like Maple, lacks any bones to break. Being a squeaky pony really is so convenient.

Because he is a scared child and I want to protect him

Because he was preparing so hard for the festival that he wiped his fingers to the blood

Because GOD HELP ME BUT THIS LOOK! I never thought I would see Kaminari look like that, it’s so unusual

Because Kaminari & Tokoyami

Because Kaminari & Jiro

Because Kaminari & Midnight teacher development

Because THIS SMILE

BECAUSE AT THIS MOMENT, MY HEART HAS STOPPED

RESTED A BIT

AND BEGAN TO BEAT AGAIN

This year, Saya plays secret Santa and drops off gifts at her loved one’s homes~  ♡ Rather than cookies and milk...someone left her pretty roses...and wine?! 

Saya: “But I don’t drink...”

Saya: “Hn...I wonder how it tastes...?

She tries 1 sip, not expecting the drink to actually be white grape sparkling water, one of her favorite drinks.

‘Santa’ happily gulps up the rest and leaves with a bounce in her step. It isn’t until morning that she wonders with embarrassment;

Saya: “Wait...that was Jurou’s house...”

Saya: “But how did he know I would be there???”

Unknown something: -licks- -licks- -liiiiiiiiiiiiicks-

Unknown something: “Gurdffe sdaubewlspppsfg~  ♡

The girl’s blood goes cold...because she recognized that sound.

That strange, undecipherable sound.

Jurou had apparently sent one of the yokai to watch over her during her nightly rounds...and...it had yet to leave.

Yokai umbrella: “Ffefffffffe gluuuuuuuuuuuul burfinfloop!”

Saya: “E..Eh...EH....EC...ECANNUS!!!! HELP!”

A Gift to You

Sorry for the kinda pretentious title. I was playing with the idea of monsters that lurk in dreams and mindscapes(?) and how to conjure them. 

HAPPY VERY LATE BIRTHDAY TO @lumilasi

Jurou comes home with some take out food one day...~

He’s starving, so his guard is down. But when living in a house of yokai, it’s important to NEVER let your guard down. Or else...this happens. 

Yokai comb: “Guuuu raffffgul!” -taps the side of Ju’s head-

Jurou: -shoves rice in a bowl- 

Jurou: “C’mon...damn, why the hell can’t I have 8 arms?!”

Yokai tea pot: “Flup gwapfulen!” -hovers over his head-

Jurou: -stuffs mouth with piece of shrimp- -doesn’t notice a thing- -eats like an animal-

Yokai comb and tea pot: -look at each other- -nods-

“GUUURAWPFLUFFAFIN!!!!!” 

Yokai comb and tea pot: -swarms the take out-

Jurou: “FE FUH?! FEH FEH FUH OFF FU FUFIING FAFFHOLES!”

Jurou: “FU FAN!!!! FET FOR FUFING FOKAI FEFORE I FE YOU!”

Yu Yan answers the call swiftly--so fast that the blinds over the windows blow and the floor shakes.

He draws one of his Genji blades, his eyes on fire. 

Yu Yan: “DON’T. BE. TOUCHIN’. MY. FOOD!!!!” 

-A yokai umbrella and ancient scroll appear-

Yokai scroll: “RUFDN GLUP?!”

Yu Yan: “OR WHAT? OH I’LL TELL YOU WHAT! GET OVER HERE!!”

Jurou speeds up his eating, smacking down more yokai as they try to get to his bowl. 

For a few minutes they’re fighting together, back to back, guarding the take out with their lives.

Until Jurou looks over his shoulder and mentions, “Oi. But this isn’t your food though. Just...you know...so we’re on the same page.”

The demon freezes in place. His golden eyes become dead pan as he looks from the food to Jurou’s face, as if he’d just been betrayed.

Yu Yan: “Huh. I see. Well, then, no point in wasting my time...~”

The red head walks away with a shit-eating grin as he thumbs over his shoulder. He regards his yokai. “Get ‘em, boys. And girl comb.”

Small yokai army: “RDUWFLLLLPSSSSTF!”

Left alone, Jurou could only stare at the demon’s retrating back, rage bubbling beneath the surface of his skin.

Yu Yan had no idea...the being he’d left behind...would crave revenge.

And revenge he would have.

The Aizawa siblings back when they lived in Neo Tokyo~ 

Chanty isn’t a particularly great cook, but there is 1 dish she nails every time--her Super Succulent Seared Steak and Gravy. It’s an original recipe she invented using what ingredients they could most commonly get their hands on...and it’s to die for.

It’s a piece of her past she unconsciously keeps with her, because it’s Jurou’s favorite dinner. Twice a year, Chanty tries to re-create it as close as she can by browsing for similar seasonings in Osaka’s food marts. 

This time around, Saya tagged along with her!

Chanty: -bent over, furiously tossing containers over her shoulder- “No. Nah. Nuh-uh. Not this one, either...”

Saya: -Barely dodging them- “Y-You’ve gone through almost every ingredient in 3 different stores--what are you looking for, exactly?”

Chanty: “I dunno, but...I’m getting close. If I mix THIS with THAT...~! It’s weird, but...I’ll know it when I taste it!”

Saya: “But you have to buy them fir--!”

Chanty: -Pops open the lids of 4 different spices and pours them in her mouth-

Saya:  Σ(°ロ°) “KYAAAAH!”

Chanty: -smacks lips- “Hmm...no, not that one. But maybe this~! Huhuhuh...!”

Saya: “But...your...taste buds...Aren’t they suffering?!”

Chanty: -still digging madly- “Yep.”

Saya: “Eh....?”

After another hour of...’taste testing’, Chantal had finally found a combination that sang true to her memory.

Later, when Jurou comes home from an annoying day at work and school, he has this waiting for him.
