I really want the Qs to discover Shirazu’s body in Kanou’s laboratory

You and me both.

“What is this place?” Saiko blinks slowly. She takes in the sterilized slabs, the air so frigid she sees her breath, the smell of cleaning fluids and the scalding blue light above. 

“Where is the science?” Hsaio adds with a frown.

“Clearly you all haven’t watched enough police procedurals. Saiko, I’m disappointed.” Higemaru steps forward. With a roll of his eyes, he reaches for a steel drawer and yanks. 

Urie swears as legs slowly roll out. A corpse, of course. 

Mutsuki says nothing. He’s been quiet since his return to CCG. But Urie can see the perturbations in his eyes.

Aura stiffens suddenly as the body finishes rolling out. 

The hair is orange. The face familiar. 

Saiko tries to scream, but no sound emerges.

Urie’s blood drains from his face. Higemaru shakes. Mutsuki begins sobbing. And Hsaio rushes forward, because she needs to be closer, close enough to see –

It’s him. Shirazu Ginshi.

“Kanou was going to revive him?” Saiko cries.

“No!” Hsaio shakes her head. “It’s impossible, Saiko.”

“Don’t make the same mistake Ui did,” Urie says. 

“But – but – I just want to go back,” Mutsuki protests, moving closer. Aura follows, like a shield.

“We can’t!” Urie yells. “We can’t go back! He’s dead, all of you: He’s dead and gone!” 

He hangs his head as Saiko rushes closer. He’s all alone on his side of the room.

When he looks up, Higemaru has glided to his side. 

“It’s okay to be upset.” 

Urie swears again, but allows his subordinate to pat his shoulder.

Higemaru Touma – Little Drummer Boy 

( a continuation of the mutsuki and touka reunion? at the ccg) The whole time mutsuki is flipping out, touka is just calming drinking her decaf coffee (cause i don’t think pregnant ladies can have caffeine) and says “man, i always heard about people hating their inlaws but this just takes the cake” which is overheard by several q-squad members and just adds to the confusion

Touka sips the terrible decaf coffee Hide brewed just for her. “Man, I always heard about people hating their in laws but this just takes the cake, you know?”

“You can eat cake?” Saiko asks.

“In laws? You mean, you really are married?” Takizawa laughs. “Holy shit!”

“Does that make you my mother?” gasps Higemaru. “Because I am down with that. She’s a badass.”

“I hate her! I hate her! She’s not our mother!” cries Mutsuki. “She – she stole Sensei away! That slut!”

Ayato rises, but Hinami yanks him back. 

“Touka is actually pretty cool for the rabbit who killed my dad,” Akira says, tossing her a wry smile. Akira keeps her hands massaging Mutsuki’s shoulders. 

Aura spits out his coffee. “She what?”

“Say it, don’t spray it,” says Nishiki with a glare.  

“Oh come off it, we’re all killers here.” Kurona primly lifts her mug.

“Mutsuki, Kaneki left you because he couldn’t face himself,” Tsukiyama says quietly. “He’s never been good at that. Not that I have either. He craves a family but fears the hurt that comes with love. It was his failing, not yours. Not Touka’s.” He smiles slightly. “He told me the list of people he cared about once. Believe me, you Quinx were included.”

Mutsuki sniffles. “Really?” 

But I am awful. I kill families. But Akira is rubbing his back, and Urie has approached him, and Saiko looks at him with kindness he doesn’t deserve. Did he leave the Quinx home, too? 

“Really.” Tsukiyama nods. 

Mutsuki lets out a little sob, and that does it. Saiko springs up and embraces him. Even Touka has to smile. 

“Wait, wait, wait!” Ayato stands up. “Touka! Does that mean you really are – the rumors – the decaf -”

He turns purple. “I CAN’T HELP HIM!”

“Sit down and shut up,” Yomo mumbles. 

Ayato sits.

hide rounded up those who wanted to help kaneki and they were all in a separate meeting room. In stumbles mutuski and Aura who iare late don’t really know what is going on, they see touka and just intensely stare (cause they’re like “wtf is she mocking us or just has mega lady balls”) And touka is all like “are you finally gonna be joining us” (definitely mocking) and mutsuki flips out much to the confusion of everyone else (pls include multiple pov if you can) thanks!!!!!!!

“Ar you sure this is a good idea?” Urie mutters.

“I think it’s fantastic.” Saiko beams at Touka, who feels a strange fondness for this other blue-haired girl.

“I think it’s necessary,” mutters Serpent. Nishiki, he calls himself. 

The Gourmet giggles besides a goateed ghoul who calls himself Banjou. A short woman, Three Blades’ Miza, swats Tsukiyama on his shoulder. Higemaru looks at Akira and Amon with wonder, his heroes finally within reach. Hsaio and Hakatori exchange tentative smiles. Yomo Renji, still dazed, leans on Fueguchi HInami and former Aogiri executive Kirishima Ayato for support. Takizawa Seidou, Yasuhisa Kurona, and Urie sulk in their own respective corners. 

And Hide is charged with controlling these crazy messes. 

“Hi,” he croaks out, for once understanding Kaneki’s shyness.

The door bangs open. “We came as quick as we could!” 

Aura Shinsanpei hurries in, Mutsuki Tooru behind him.

Yomo groans. Not again. 

Mutsuki stares at Touka, who refuses to budge from her position besides Hide, at the head of the table. She won’t give him the satisfaction.

“Is this mockery of CCG? And everything we stand for?” Aura clenches his fist.

“So good of you to finally join us,” Touka says stiffly.

Mutsuki’s mouth opens and shuts without a word. He wanted to help Sensei. He came to help Sensei, not to see her. “She isn’t helping Sensei!”

He’s jealous of her. Urie tries to push the thought from his mind. No, Mutsuki can’t be.

“Mucchy, why would you say that? They’re married!” Saiko claps her hands. 

“I’ll beat your asses again,” Miza warns them.

“You did this! You made sensei into this!” screams Mutsuki.

“Furuta did, which means technically, your CCG did, on the bodies of a hundred little kids,” Akira snaps.

He looks hurt. 

“Look, this isn’t easy for me either, considering you razed my family,” says Tsukiyama. “But we all love Kaneki, and we all have to work together if we want to save him.”

“She took him,” whimpers Mutsuki, tears in his eyes.

Akira frowns. Mutsuki isn’t well. Maybe – maybe he didn’t turn on her as easily as she thought. 

“Mutsuki, this isn’t like you,” she says. Amon tightens his grip on her arm.

“Pah,” says Seidou. 

“Helpful,” Kurona shoots at him. He rolls his eyes.

“Mutsuki?” Akira stands and approaches him again.

Urie’s hands sweat. He should be the one comforting Mutsuki. Asking the hard questions. 

But because he’s Urie Yuki, he can’t do it in that order. “What the hell is going on?!”

Oooohhhh. Description of tg girls’ boobs? (if you’re comfy with it obv)

Kirishima Touka – Quite proud of her mole. Pretty confident in her chest size, large enough to be envied but not large enough to hurt. 

Irimi Kaya – Small, firm breasts that are perfect for battle. 

Fueguchi Hinami – Still kinda insecure.

Kosaka Yoriko – Wishes she had Touka’s boobs. 

Nishino Kimi – Felt average. But Nishiki likes them, and now she’s into wearing adventurous bras. 

Kanae Von Rosewald – Would rather pretend she doesn’t have them.

Chie Hori – Has photographed her own more than once. May or may not have shown Shuu. 

Yoshimura Eto – Loves her smallish chest. Hates bras. 

Itori – Also proud of her mole, and loves displaying her perfectly proportioned chest. 

Hoito Roma – Has occasionally complained that she can stay young but not grow her boobs. 

Mado Akira – She likes indulging in lacy push-up bras. 

Gori Misato – Fond of sports bras and other practical wear.

Kusakari Miza – Decided long ago she was going to be a warrior with large boobs, and any male who dismissed her could face her three blades. 

Ihei Hairu – Likes trying on lingerie and other fancy underwear. Secretly quite likes her boobs. 

Yonebayashi Saiko – luxurious and beautiful. She’s proud of them, even if they hurt her shoulders. 

Hsaio Ching-Li – Is ‘meh’ on her whole chest thing. 

Aura Kiyoko – As a veteran, she’s an avid proponent of wearing well-fitted bras.

Kamishiro Rize – Knows her boobs are effing unparalleled, yet vacillates between loving them and hating them because of the attention gross men sometimes give her.  😦 

Nico – Sometimes wishes she had boobs.

Asa – Okay but what are these strange things growing on her chest and how can she put artwork on them?

Iyo – The fact that Matsuri did not notice her lovely boobs was her first clue.  

Instead of running away from them, Kaneki talks with the Quinx about what he is doing and what he discovers (that the CCG are the biggest hypocrites, sunlit garden and everything they were taught a complete and total lie), and they make it clear that they will support him always.

“I don’t believe you,” Urie snaps.

“Why not?” Saiko fires back. 

“Sensei? How do you know?” Mutsuki leans forward. The Quinx have gathered in the Chateau for a meeting with Sasaki Haise, though he now wants to be called Kaneki. 

Higemaru interrupts. “There’s actually … I’ve studied the history of CCG some. Everyone who’s come from the Sunlit Garden has passed away by 35.”

“So you believe him, too?” Saiko asks.

“Why don’t we ask or resident Garden kid?” Aura points at Hsaio. “Tell us he’s crazy.”

Hsaio stares at the floor. Her voice sounds dead. “He’s crazy.” 

“You’re a terrible liar,” Urie says, his stomach sinking.

Hsaio looks up at Kaneki. “You can’t fight them. You’ll lose.”

“You’re going to die early? No! I refuse!” Saiko shrieks. She wraps Hsaio in an embrace.

“If – if everything is a lie, how do we move forward?” Mutsuki waits anxiously for Sensei’s answer.

“I don’t know. I think joining with the ghouls already against the Washuus is a good first step,” says Kaneki.

“No,” Aura says. “I can’t betray my aunt.”

“In a way,” says Higemaru, “You’d be betraying her if you let her fight for a lie.”

“But I don’t have anyone else,” Aura whispers.

“You have us,” Kaneki says. “For what little I’m worth.”

“You’re worth a lot to me,” says Mutsuki. 

“And me!” cries Saiko. 

“We’ll support whatever you decide,” Urie says, nodding at Kaneki. For some reason, that warms his heart the most. 

They’re his family. 

Saiko and q-squad are preparing to fight the dragon thing when they run into touka’s squad in the battlefield. After realizing they were from GOAT, Saiko frantically asks for any news regarding Haise Sasaki, his whereabouts and if he is safe. Touka understands she means well and with a heavy heart has to say that the giant thing they have to fight is him.

“You’re GOAT? So you’re not behind this?” Saiko cries. Hsaio and Higemaru aim their kagunes towards Touka, the tearful Gourmet, Yotsume, and Serpent. Dawn emerges, and no one has a handle on this giant creature yet. 

And now – now ghouls are coming to help, and as momentary leader of the Quinx Squad, Saiko is perfectly willing to accept this. 

Furuta was behind this,” Touka says furiously. To her surprise, none of the Quinxes seem all that shocked. 

“Have you seen Haise Sasaki? Where is he?” demands the blue-haired girl.

Touka’s face falls. This girl must be… “You’re Yonebayashi Saiko.”

“How do you know me?” Saiko scowls.

“I’m close to Kaneki,” Touka says, her eyes filling with tears. 

“So where is he?” asks Higemaru.

“Is he safe?” Saiko asks.

The Gourmet lets out another wail, and Yotsume begins crying, too.

“That is Kaneki.” Touka’s voice is fierce. None of the Quinxes think to doubt her.

Saiko catches her breath. Her voice trembles. “I don’t…I said I don’t want anyone to die anymore.”

“We rescued Urie. We can do this,” Hsaio says. Sure, this thing is nothing like a framed-out Urie, but bring Urie back to sanity was supposed to be impossible too, right? 

“Please let us help,” whimpers the Gourmet.

“We call can. Because we’re going to rescue Maman,” Saiko snaps.

Touka smiles slightly. She likes this girl. And, just maybe, she feels a spark of hope.

Yay ask box is open again! Could you possibly do hsiao x saiko nsfw w some angst maybe? Thank yo uso much for all you do!

Always. Hsaio x Saiko needs more love. 

“Saiko,” Hsaio Ching-Li awakens in the middle of the night to see her friend sitting at the foot of her bed. 

Hsaio’s eyes still smart from crying. Tonight she confessed everything to Saiko, Urie, and Higa. They know she was part ghoul before she was a Quinx. They assured her love her, but she can’t quite believe it. 

“Hi.” Saiko straightens up. “I just thought you might not want to be alone.”

“Thank you.” Hsaio opens her arms, and Saiko hugs her. 

“You know, I really don’t care. You’re my friend.” Saiko hesitates, an uncharacteristic move for her.

“What?”

Saiko brushes her lips against Hsaio’s.

Hsaio gasps. “What?!”

“I told you, I love you, Hsaio.” Saiko smiles.

Hsaio shakes her head. “But – like that?”

“Does that scare you?”

“A little.” Hsaio tackles Saiko in a ferocious kiss.

“I’ll take it you agree.” Saiko giggles.

“Yes,” Hsaio breathes. She just – she hardly let herself dream – but when she did, it was of Saiko.

“Can I?” Saiko’s hands hover over Hsaio’s chest.

She nods and moves her own hands to Saiko’s breasts. “Damn, I’m jealous.”

“Pah, and I’m jealous of you, too, silly.” Saiko pulls Hsaio down onto the bed. They lie facing each other, their hands exploring each other’s bodies. 

Hsaio used to consider herself fortunate to have been born a failure, destined to die young. Because then she couldn’t be used to continue the family line by sleeping with men. 

But she never dreamed she would be this fortunate – to have Saiko’s hands inside her, to be inside Saiko. 

“I love you, Saiko,” she says.

“I know.” Saiko winks. 

saiko finding out touka is pregnant so she calls her papa and touka doesnt have a choice

“Papa, you love us, right?” Saiko smiles at the woman whose lap is currently Kaneki’s pillow, and whose feet are currently Mutsuki’s dream toy. Or so it seems, because he keeps batting at them like a cat while sleeping.

Touka sputters. “Papa?!”

“You’re gonna have a baby with Maman. That makes you Papa,” Saiko says seriously.

“Just go with it,” Urie advises.

“Do you have a name for this kid? I know plenty of historical names,” Higemaru says eagerly.

“Kaneki wants a literary name,” Touka admitted.

“What do you want?” Hsaio asks, leaning closer.

“A name they’ll like.” Touka shrugs, with a small smile. “That’s it.” Her eyes travel to the corner. “Aura, are you still sulking? Get over here.”

He tiptoes closer. “You – you really don’t hate me?”

“Nah, we’re family. My brother once tore out my kagune.” Touka smiles. 

“Thanks, Papa,” he mutters.

Touka scowls.

Aura winks.

“You’re doing that on purpose,” she hisses.

“Yup.” He laughs and settles besides Higemaru.

“Papa is gonna be a good papa,” sings Saiko. 

With Ken on her lap and Mutsuki by her feet, with the rest of their wacky family surrounding them, Touka feels that maybe she will be.
