Oh my friend. We are both of the opinion that Shigezane is one of THE BEST SOFTEST BOYS. What are your thoughts (spicy and non-spicy) on taking care of him, and him taking care of MC. He deserves so much more love than he ever gets (especially in canon when it seems all he gets is abuse heaped on him as a side character in Date event stories đ)
Yes.
YES!!!
They do him so dirty. đ Letâs soak that sunshine prince in a nice, appreciative bubble bath and then towel him off with something soft, he needs (needs) and deserves that love!
HERE WE GO! This feels like a Very Important Quest. I do not have sleeves but if I did I would be rolling them up right now. Mental sleeves: ROLLED, baby.
The Care & Keeping-Happy of Your Date Shigezane, And How He May Attempt to Return the Favor:
Bring him taiyaki before he has a chance to ask for it. Aaahhhh, doll, youâre an angelâ wanna share these? Heâs always happy to get it (ahem), and heâs not shy about asking, but knowing you were thinking of him and doing something for him with your time? You really are an angel! OF LOVE.
He admires you and really wants to be admirable to you. Heâa definitely gonna try to learn how to make your favorite food and treats, too!
His efforts to become an admirable person and a good Lord are going to run him ragged. When heâs tired from trying to fix everything, please just be with him at the end of the day, let him rest his head on your thighs or shoulder and talk. He needs to be close to you, heâs bolstered by your nearness. You can cut in any time if you have an idea for a way to solve one of the problems heâs dealing with, heâd love that, but more than anything he needs to know you are literally there.
You bring him so much joy that for awhile he will bring home just about anything that made him smile while he was outâ because you make him smile, too, and he wants to give you the moon but instead he saw a cute, scrappy little kitten... would you like this scrappy little kitten? How do you feel about some tasteful shunga? He brought out the confectioner at the end of the day because he didnât know what kind of wagashi youâd like best!
He is so, so, so into backrubs. Innocent backrubs. Not so innocent backrubs. It makes him feel manly and desired and soothed when you rub his bare shoulders. It feels good when you really put your shoulders into it to give him pressure and when you just rub, lightly, lovingly. Please do that. Now?
Heâs earnest but not exactly the most poetic guy. Still, heâll copy nice bits of poetry he catches, and slip them to you. Alsoâ he gets serious (!) about the ikebana, and wants to make you fancy arrangements, but best of all he loves presenting you with stuff he picked on the way back from town. Hiromasa makes a show of being offended but like the rest of Omori he super ships it, so youâre good.
And in private...
