Lassitude
Yandere Itadori Yuji x Reader
2.9 k words
Summary: You just got to meet up with a friend you hadn't seen in a while, and now you're headed home after a fun day out. But you can't shake the feeling of being watched. It's nothing... right?
Warnings: female presenting reader, universe typical violence, injury to reader, death, yandere if you squint
“Thanks again for meeting up with me today, I know it was really short notice.”
“Don’t thank me, I’m just happy to see you again. When you transferred out of school so suddenly, I got really worried about you. I’m just glad that you’re okay.” You look over at Yuji and smile half-heartedly, “Sasaki and Iguchi have been asking about you a lot. You should probably reach out to them, too. I feel a little bad hogging you all to myself like this.”
A glimmer of hope sparks in your heart. Maybe there’s a reason he reached out to only you?
“Oh, are they? I didn’t think we were close enough for them to be worried about me.” Yuji scratches the back of his head, looking a little flustered. “But thanks for letting me know. You’re such a good friend.”
Ah. There it is. “Friend”.
It’s not that you’re ungrateful for your friendship with Yuji, but… you would be lying through your teeth if you said you didn’t want it to be something more.
Yuji is the kindest person you’ve ever met, and he held the first place title by a significant margin. Anyone would be lucky to call him a friend, and you were, but you couldn’t help how your heart felt. How it skipped a beat when he would lend you his hand to help you up. How it fluttered when he remembered your favorite snacks and drinks and would make sure to get one for you. How it felt like it was going to explode when he shot you a text asking if you could meet up today.
And today had been fun. You met with him at a local arcade that you two used to go to all the time. Despite all of the months apart, you fell into the same synergy and easy conversation that had always come naturally. It was as if you’d just seen him yesterday. He even won you a little Cinnamoroll plush from one of the claw machines.
“Is everything okay? You got quiet all of a sudden.” Yuji is just ahead of you, walking backwards with a concerned look on his face.
A well practiced fake smile is plastered onto your face following his question. “Everything’s fine.” Your fingers mess with the ears of your plush, “I was just thinking about how I wish we could do this more often, like we used to.”
The guilt that flashes across his face makes you immediately regret your words. Guilt tripping Yuji into hanging out with you more is the last thing you would want to do to him, so you quickly try to backpedal, “Not that I’m blaming you or anything! I get that you’re busy.”
“It’s okay,” the smile he flashes you makes your heart feel fuzzy, “I get it. I wish we could see each other more often, too. I’ll try to make more room for you from now on. I promise.”
“Really?” You can no longer contain your excitement. Without even thinking about it, you leap forward and all but tackle him in a hug, “Thank you! That’s the best news I’ve gotten all week!” More like all year, but you’re trying to at least pretend to be normal about this.
It dawns on you that this isn’t very laid back and casual of you. You release him and step back, clearing your throat and trying to act nonchalant, “I mean, only if you’re sure you have the time. I don’t want you going out of your way just for me.” You do. You absolutely do.
Yuji flashes his signature smile, “I want to go out of my way for you. You’re important to me, (Y/N).”
Critical hit. Your face feels hot and you avert your eyes. How can he say something like that so casually? This would basically be a confession from someone else, but sweet sentiments like this are a staple of Itadori’s lingo. It almost makes you want to scream. How can he be so amazing and dense at the same time?!
“Thank you… I really appreciate that.” Oh god, you feel like your heart is going to burst again. “A-Anyway, it’s getting late. I should head home before my parents start to worry.”
“Do you want me to walk you home?”
Yes. Absolutely. More than anything. “No, that’s okay. I know you still have to get back to your new school.”
“Are you sure? I really don’t mind.” The smile on his face was adorable, and it almost made you crack. But no, you need some time alone to calm yourself down.
“I’m sure. My home isn’t far from here anyway.” You decide to indulge yourself and give him another hug before turning to go your separate way. “I’ll see you later. Bye, Yuji!”
Yuji holds his hand out toward you, and for a second you think he’s going to say something. But instead, he retracts his hand and rubs the back of his neck, “Yeah, see you later. Stay safe, (Y/N).”
A combination of disappointment and warmth fills your chest. His well wishes for you are nice, but you can’t help but be bummed that he didn’t say whatever was on his mind. It’s fine. You’re used to not getting exactly what you want from him. At least he’s still your friend despite the distance.
Walking home doesn’t take long, you weren’t lying when you said your home was nearby. But as you walk, you can’t shake off the feeling of being watched. You keep looking over your shoulder, hoping to see Yuji, but he isn’t there. No one is. It makes a chill run down your spine, prompting you to walk faster and hold your plush tighter. It’s nothing. You know it’s nothing, but that doesn’t make you any less creeped out.
Just as you make it home, your phone rings. Feeling like you’re safe now that you’re on the front steps, you slide your phone out of your pocket and check the caller ID. It’s Yuji!
Without waiting another second, you answer the call, “Yes?” Did that sound too eager? Probably. Too late to do anything about it now.
“Good, you answered.” Yuji sighs in relief and lets out an embarrassed chuckle, “Uh, I don’t suppose my wallet is still in your purse is it?”
Oh, that’s right! You offered to hold onto it for him after it flew out of his pocket while you two were playing DDR. As expected of him, Yuji got way too into it and his wallet got sent sailing through the air as a result of how hard he was dancing. “Hang on, let me check.” You hold your phone to your ear with your shoulder as you sift through your purse, “Yep! It’s right here.”
“Great, I’m glad I at least know where it is now. My bus pass is in there, so I’ll have to come get it from you. I’ll be there in a few.”
“Wait, I would feel bad making you walk all the way here and back. I’m home now, I’ll ask my dad if he can drive me there so you don’t miss the next bus.” Yuji starts to protest, but you silence him, “At least let me ask first. I’m sure my dad will be more than happy to help.”
You push open the door and get ready to call out to your father, but the words are knocked out of you. Something huge slams into your back, launching you through the air. You yelp from the surprise and pain of it all, then crash down onto the coffee table. It snaps under your weight, and you are left coughing and gasping for air after… an attack? What the hell was that?
“(Y/N)? What was that? Are you okay?” Yuji’s voice comes through your phone, and for a moment all you can think is that you’re amazed that you were able to hold onto it through that.
Before you can muster the strength to speak, you scream instead as something sharp sinks into your leg. You shriek and look down, finding blood pouring out of several holes in your leg and staining your sock, but- but nothing is there! You can feel something, but you don’t see anything!
More calls of your name ring through the home, this time from your parents. You don’t answer, you can’t. Whatever pierced your leg starts to move, and it’s strong! You continue to scream as you’re shaken violently, getting slammed into furniture and the floor by whatever has a hold of you. Your grip on your phone relinquishes, sending it flying away and into a wall as you’re flailed about.
“What’s going on?! What’s hurting her?! I don’t see anything!” Your mother sounds as confused as she does terrified. Her eyes dart all over the room, but she can’t see anything either.
“Mom! Dad! Help me!” You wail and kick blindly with your free leg, and then you feel it. Your foot connects with something. Something is here, but why can’t you see it?!
Your father picks up the broken top of the coffee table, then slams it down over where your leg is bleeding from. Instead of hitting you, it stops about a foot above and breaks. Whatever was holding you lets go and appears to back up into the wall, making the framed photos fall off of it. A scratching noise cuts through the air, and when you follow them to the source, you see four sets of claw marks on the floor.
It’s when you look up that you start to get an idea of what attacked you. The thing is still invisible, but your blood is now staining its teeth. Several rows of long, razor sharp teeth glisten red, finally revealing something about what is in here with you.
“What the hell is that?” Your father looks dumbfounded, but he’s still clearly on high alert. He watches the dripping maw closely as it begins to move, circling to the right, blocking the pathway to the front door. “Get to our room and call for help! Now! I’ll hold this- this thing off!”
Mom didn’t need to be told twice. She had already been crouched down next to you when he gave the order. With a strength you didn’t think she possessed, your mom heaves you up onto her shoulder and runs.
The sound of scraped wood echoes through the house as the beast lunges at your father. He slams what remains of the piece of wood he was holding into what you assume is the face, but that’s the last thing you see before your vision is obscured by the walls encasing the staircase leading to the upstairs bedrooms. You want to cry out for your dad to come with you, but your voice fails you.
As soon as she makes it into the room, your mother locks the door and wedges a chair under the handle. You’re dropped onto the bed as she fumbles to get her phone out of her pocket and dial the right number, all the while looking over your wound.
It’s truly a sickening sight. The meat of your calf has been shredded from the monster that bit you. Is… Is that bone? You feel like you’re going to throw up or faint. Maybe both.
“We need help!” Your mother’s voice draws your attention away from the horrendous state of your leg. “Something broke into our home and attacked our daughter! I- I don’t know what! I couldn’t see it, but it bit my daughter and was throwing her around! She needs an ambulance, now! Hurry!”
Loud crashing and yelling is coming from outside of the room. It escalates to screaming, then cuts off abruptly into complete silence. No. No, no, no! This isn’t happening, this can’t be happening!
Your mother cries out her husband’s name, but there is no reply. “Oh god! Please hurry! I think it just killed my husband!”
Something heavy hits the door. Then again, each time harder than the last. The wood is starting to break, and the wall is cracking. It’s breaking down the door, and it feels almost certain that it’ll get through before help can arrive.
This is a fact that your mom seemingly also picked up on. She scoops you back into her arms and runs to the closet, sliding open the door and practically throwing you inside. She tightly clutches one of your hands in hers and holds your tear soaked face with the other, “Y-You need to stay quiet, okay? Don’t make a sound. I love you so much.”
She retreats and slides the door shut again before you can put together anything resembling a coherent thought, much less a sentence. No… Why is she doing this? She should be hiding too! Come back! Please come back!
The door to the bedroom gives in to the tremendous force of the monster outside of it and shatters. You can hear your mother let out a startled shriek, then a sob.
“P-Please… I don’t care what happens to me, just leave my baby alone! Don’t hurt her anymore, I’m begging you!”
There’s just enough of a gap in the closet door to let you peer through it. Part of you knows this is a bad decision. But you can’t bring yourself to look away. Remnants of the door crack and break under the weight of the blight attacking your family as it enters the room and encroaches on its prey. Your mother stumbles back and her phone is thrown at it in a last desperate attempt to ward it off.
When it finally steps into view, it’s covered in blood, and you instinctively know that it’s your father’s. The monster is almost as tall as your mother and quadrupedal. The mouth is disproportionately large, being almost as big as the misshapen head it’s a part of.
It corners your terrified mother, then attacks. She screams and tries to fend it off, but it bites into her arm and rips it from her body. Her wails of agony and fear make you begin to sob harder despite her pleas for you to keep quiet. It doesn’t matter. Nothing matters. That thing is going to kill her and then you, just like it did your father.
You tear your eyes away from the carnage just as your mother’s head starts to disappear into the razor sharp abyss. You can’t do it. You can’t watch. You know it’s over when her screams are cut short.
All you can do is sob as the beast approaches the closet. You don’t even attempt to move or defend yourself as the door is ripped out of its track, fully exposing you. There’s even more blood on it now. Worse yet, clumps of mom’s hair are wedged in between its teeth.
This is it. This is how you die. Massacred along with the rest of your family. At least you three won’t be separated for long. You stare in horror as it steps closer. You blink. Someone is over it. Then the monster is sent through the floor with the person you saw falling right with it.
What? Was that… pink hair? I- It can’t be…
A loud struggle is happening on the floor beneath you, but your brain is struggling to process it. It’s struggling to process any of this. You should be dead. Why aren’t you dead? You’re so numb to your surroundings that you don’t even notice when the fight stops. The only thing that tears you from your stupor is your name being called out.
After a few slow blinks, you focus your attention on the person in front of you. Yuji. It is Yuji. This doesn’t make any sense.
The complete lack of a response from you frightens him, and he shakes you, “Talk to me, (Y/N)! Please let me know that you’re okay!”
No. You’re not okay. Nothing is okay.
“Mom… Dad…” Your voice is hoarse and cracks with each word.
His expression becomes even more devastated. “I’m sorry… I’m so sorry that I didn’t get here in time to save them.” He moves, then hugs you close to his chest, “But I saved you. I made it just in time to save you.”
Distantly, your mind registers the fact that he is continuing to speak, but you don’t really hear any of it. It’s all a white noise to you. Why is this happening? Why are you still alive when your parents are dead? Viciously murdered by a thing that none of you could even truly see. Was this your fault? Did you unknowingly bring that thing home with you?
Itadori picks you up, but you just hang in his arms limply. The sound of sirens echoes in the distance. They’re far too late to be of any use now.
“I’m going to get you some help, but we can’t stay here. Just hang tight. You’re safe now.”
Safe? An invisible monster just murdered your whole family. You’re never going to feel safe again. But you don’t say any of this. You don’t have the strength, the will. You have nothing left, not anymore. What your friend does now is of no consequence to you. Nothing is.
You may have a pulse, but your life ended when your parents’ did.
Welcome back ! Would it be ok if I request Yan Luffy for the yandere alphabet? Y , X , S , N , M please 💗
Mask: Are their true colors drastically different from the way they act around everyone else?
No, not at all. This man is very open and proud about who he is. The Luffy that you see vs. the Luffy that everyone else sees is the same exact person. He has no shame about what he's doing, nor does he think it's wrong, so he doesn't care to hide anything from other people.
Naughty: How would they punish their darling?
I've touched on this in a different post discussing the Straw Hats punishing a darling, but his go to method is isolation. Luffy hates being alone and knows how painful it is, and while he isn't happy about it, he knows that this will work to get his point across. Oh, you want to be left alone despite having such a loving boyfriend and crew? Alright, let's see how much you like it after having several days of seeing no one. It takes a lot to push him to this point, but once he's there, there is no amount of backpedaling that you can do to get out of the punishment. After you're out, you'll be so desperate for human interaction that you'll eagerly soak up every bit of attention that he gives you.
That's the only big thing that he does, everything else he does mainly boils down to exposure therapy and ignoring your behavior. If you try to run, he just grabs and yanks you back without even looking up from what he was doing. If you try to escape his affection, he's coiling around you like a damn snake. If you try to vocalize that you don't like what's happening, he shoves some food in your mouth to shut you up. It's possible to get him to hit you, but he strictly only does that in retaliation of you hitting him first. He'll only hit you as hard as you hit him, so you won't have to worry about getting the same treatment the people he seriously fights get. Afterwards, he won't apologize until you apologize for hitting him first.
Stigma: What brought about this side of them (childhood, curiosity, etc)?
Oh, it was 100% his childhood. Between being abandoned by his entire biological family and his crippling fear of loneliness, it really isn't surprising that he's so extreme about keeping a significant other around. He doesn't want to be alone or abandoned again, and he'll do anything to make sure that you can't do that to him. All of his behavior feels normal and justified to him. In this world, you have to fight for what you care about. Why wouldn't he do that for his darling?
Xoanon: How much would they revere or worship their darling? To what length would they go to win their darling over?
He loves you dearly and would do anything for you, but I wouldn't necessarily call what he does worship. His obsession for you makes him extremely loyal and supportive. No matter what, he's got your back, and he'll go through hell to keep you safe and happy. Same goes for your goals in life, he wants to do everything he can to help you achieve them. You're on the same level as anyone else in the Straw Hat crew, you just get extra affection and kissed sometimes.
Yearn: How long do they pine after their darling before they snap?
It's a combination of fast and slow, if that makes sense. His initial interest in you happens quickly. You do something the piques his interest and makes him want you on his crew, and you will be before the end of the day. At that point, he's already yandere for you, but only platonically. As time goes by, the romantic feelings very slowly start to grow. He starts seeking you out more than the other Straw Hats and is even more touchy than usual.
It doesn't click for him that he's in love until someone else points it out to him. Then he goes back to moving very fast. Once he gets it, he gets excited. This is like a new adventure to him, and he's eager to explore every facet of it. I wouldn't really call it snapping, he just suddenly starts suffocating you in his love.
Oooh body horror of dragon slayers love to see what u come up with 😈 ~
You get me! I'm so excited to do this!
Natsu's veins look like actual lava. Most times its very faint and you can't see it but when he gets mad they glow
His blood is so hot that it burns through things. He got a nose bleed once and melted a table
If he uses dragon force too often, his skin starts to blister and peel like super bad burns.
He also has a ton of burn scars. He didn't build up a tolerance to heat overnight and almost all of his body has rough, painful looking scars (little Natsu was always wrapped in bandages)
Gajeel's dead skin is straight iron and can give people tiny cuts. He wears a ton of lotion because any bit of roughness can hurt the people close to him
This is also the case for cuts on his body. The edges of the wounds sharpen and make it almost impossible to get stitches or bandages. He's also injured several doctors
His eyes and skin end up yellowing with age because of the extreme amount of iron in his body
His skin is either insanely cold or hot. If he gets too hot his skin turns bright red and sizzles. Too cold and he can actually freeze over (also yes, he rusts especially around his fingers and toes)
If Wendy uses her Dragon Force too much, she starts sprouting little feather nubs in her normal form. She has to pull them out with tweezers. It's very painful
Overtime her face and hands develop muscle spasms and tremors. She has a hard time controlling her expressions and gets to the point where she can't even hold items because her hands shake so violently
When she uses too much magic, her skin starts to turn blue from lack of oxygen. She has passed out from it before but it's very rare. The blue is almost every time and her lips are now constantly blue
Her finger nails are black/brown from the lack of oxygen in her blood. Overtime her finger tips turn the same color, but the nails start soon after her first dragon force (she hid it by painting her nails but had to tell others once her actual fingers started to turn)
Laxus' veins are also insane. They mostly look crazy like lighting bolts across his entire body. Drawing blood from him is a nightmare. Especially because his veins are incredibly thin too
He also has a shit ton of burn scars. More so on his hands and arms but also the inside of his mouth is incredibly scarred because of use of his magic
His entire back is covered in those lightning bolt scars too. They are not super visible but if you get up close it's insane
Erik's blood is straight acid. Just a papercut is enough to seriously injure someone. It's so strong that he can't even be operated on.
His skin is super thin. Like if you shine a strong flashlight on him, you can see all his veins and stuff
Because Sting's entire body makes light, he has like an insane amount of sun damage. His skin is very rough, cracked, and often has random burn spots scattered around his body
Rogue straight up feels like a dead body. When he was a kid, he looked like one too. Too skinny, bones popping out, super pale, and cold. As he got older he learned how to bulk up, but his magic still takes it's toll on his body
His pupils are always super big. Like you can barely see his eye color because his pupils are massive. Because of this, his eyes look absolutely massive
Hi I was wondering do you have any hcs on dragon classes ?
also I was wondering are we allowed to send in our own hcs ? Love to hear your thoughts on them ^^
Hi there! Wonderful to chat! ^.^
You are always free to message me on anything fandommy, though friendly heads up: I'm unreliable responding. I read everything and appreciate everything and want to respond to everything, but alas, I'm busy and flaky.
My one big headcanon regarding Dragon Classes is that they are not phylogenetically reliable. I prefer looking at Dragon Classes through a cultural framework. Vikings, fictional or no, are not Twenty-First Century scientists! The Vikings created their own categories based upon their world framework. While they have good knowledge, they do not come from a modern biological taxonomic mindset.
This explains why:
Dragons in the same classes are disparate. The Monstrous Nightmare and the Fireworms of the Stoker Class don't share life / reproduction cycles, social behaviors, or even the number of legs.
Classes contain "four elements" type characteristics. We have a fire class (Stoker Class), water class (Tidal Class), and rock class (Boulder Class - though with their unique rock-eating abilities, are going to have more phylogenetic relation). Biologic relations of animals are not dependent on whether they adapted to water.
Other classes are based upon a main feature or impression. Tracker Class - oh hey, these animals track well! Sharp class - look, spiky! This is like me lumping a hedgehog and echidna together. There's understandable reason to... doesn't mean I'm portraying genetic relation.
Mystery Class is based on knowing little about the dragons. This is not a shared biological trait. This is a miscellaneous "To Be Learned More About" category. Unsurprisingly, Mystery Class dragons have a wide range of appearances and abilities.
[Gestures at the entire Fear Class deal.]
This headcanon also delves into why dragons change classes. Vikings categorize dragons based upon their understanding. But not every human being will agree with one another. Not every society will agree with one another. And not every society will process their understanding by the same flowchart.
This means I think there is observable variation if you sail from one Viking island to the next on how they classify dragons. One naturalist will argue 'til the end of time that Nadders are Sharp Class. Another nerd on the same island will insist they're Tracker. Everyone else in town Does Not Give A Crap.
Different societies, depending on their level of cultural contact with one another, will have slightly different paradigms or classifications. Viking cities at opposite ends of an archipelago will probably have the least similar agreement. Maybe one region has a Sky Class. Another region puts the Triple Stryke in the Sharp Class.
Some dragons are reliably classified as one thing. For a hypothetical example: the Gronckle is Boulder Class for every culture that has Boulder Class, and just about everyone has a Boulder Class. Other dragons, there's more variation in how the peoples classify them. Yet other dragons get put in two classes simultaneously by some Viking groups (other Viking groups say you can't have dragons in two categories at once).
Isolated societies (Wingmaidens?) sometimes have an entirely different way of thinking about and categorizing dragons than the Tracker, Stoker, Tidal, etc. system.
Dragon Classes are not as regimented, firm, 'hard factual', and essential as we are treating them through our framework of categorization. The Vikings might look at Dragon Classes more loosely, fluidly, inessentially, characteristically / descriptively instead of as innate physical identity, etc.

Hi hope you’re doing ok and drinking plenty of water!! (And happy valentines! Have some chocolate! 🍫) would it be ok if I ask for your otp and brotp ship names ?
I know that Gajeel and levy OTP are called bookworm and the beast and natsu and Lucy brotp are called strawberry sunrise (omg that’s so cute !!🥰)
I was wondering can I hear your shipping names for them ? (Like what’s natsu and Lisanna in romantic and platonic shipping names , or natsu and Lucy romantic ship name ? ) also hope your doing ok !
Thank you so much! Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m doing alright, thank you!
As the CEO of Nali, my romantic ship name for them is Lost and Found.
For platonic I could see Kashas, which is a type of Japanese mythology demonic creature that looks like a flaming cat.
As for Nalu, I’ll be honest, I’m not the biggest shipper for them but… How about Celestial Dragons?
Hi I was wondering how do you draw your anatomy? I’m a big fan of your work especially how you draw the characters figures ^^
Also hi hope you’re doing ok ! And drinking plenty of water 💗
so I've been drawing for a while but what helps me is warming up with gestures (1-5 minutes- roughly 5 each. You can choose to do this weekly or daily- I recommend daily if art is something you're really interested in and passionate about) I recommend using references like crazy because you cant expect yourself to remember how bodies contort and move.
another thing to help you- now I know, I know... 'BUT THAT'S TRACING'.
Look. If you're drawing over anatomy to UNDERSTAND the structure of the skeleton/muscles? DO IT. If it's for educational purposes then I absolutely recommend it. It's hard to understand this stuff if you don't properly understand how muscles overlap on the skeleton. So yes, tracing for educational purposes only??? 1000000% agree with.
Now- if you're tracing poses/over other people's art and posting it? I have some issues, however that's my personal opinion and I can't change what people do.
Once you understand the body and how its structured, drawing in different styles becomes easier.
How do I personally do anatomy?
I can try and break it down but everyone learns differently!
I start off finding the line of action and break down the pose. Obviously the hands a bigger than normal and there's some mishapes but I'm just quickly sketching to show my process :0000
Hi me again , I was wondering if Aquarius did die , what are your thoughts on this ?
When Aquarius died she gave some of her magic to Lucy , so Lucy always has something to remind her of Aquarius (could be star dress with a tattoo or actual water magic without the celestial outfit )
Even if she’s not there , she’s always looking out for Lucy ? Love to hear your thoughts on this ?
I think specifically because Lucy is a Celestial wizard who largely gains abilities from the spirits she was contracted to, I don't know that I would've been the biggest fan of her maintaining some of Aquarius' magic.
The sentiment is a really sweet one. The idea of a character still having something that connects them to a loved one who has since passed will always hit home with me. However I'm also a bit of a sucker for tragedy/angst in a way that irreparable alters someone and causes them loss they can't fully come to terms with.
The idea of the celestial spirits being tangible beings that can interact with the world around them but incapable of actually leaving evidence of their existence beyond them occupying a space lends to some really solid conversations on grief when Aquarius is fully removed from the story. All Lucy gets left with is the memory of a person who meant the world to her and the shattered remains of what was once the literal key for her to see that person whenever she wanted.
It's always great to want closure, to have some bittersweet times to soften the pain. But I actually feel like the way Aquarius went out feels realistic in such a sad way because there wasn't time for keepsakes, lucy didn't expect to have to say goodbye.
I think if anything I wish we could've actually sat with Lucy's grief. Had some chapters following tartaros where we see Lucy working through things and maybe even being far too protective of any bits of the key she could still hold onto.
Now there is a chance "lucy has something to hold onto" could've been a solid idea and I wouldn't be opposed to seeing it play out. In fact I think the concept fits in with how shounen and shoujo operate. It feels like it fits the stories.
But personal taste it isn't really for me! Thank you for the question!
