I have an angst idea for you! A female Washuu ghoul who is to be used as a “womb” (basically seen as a second rate Rize) has escaped the Garden, and Hirako and the Zero Kids are sent to kill her, giving her an estimated A+ rating. When they are winning the fight and are about to kill her, Shio breaks down crying because he remembered her taking care of him previously and just can’t kill her? (Washuu angst is great stuff btw)

Did someone say WASHUU ANGST?! 😀

Their latest mission is Firefly. A ghoul rated A+, with a habit of preying on Johns in Tokyo’s Red Light district. Not the sort of mission for any teenagers, except those in Zero Squad. 

Shio aims his quinque at the young ghoul who for some reason reminds him of Li-Ming. 

She gasps and fires off sparks from her rinkaku, the sparks that earned her her nickname. Shio ducks, and Rikai cries out. 

Yusa leaps forward and knocks off her mask.

The ghoul sprawls before Shio. 

“Now, Shio!” demands Hirako.

But he is frozen. Beneath that black hair and those devastated eyes, he sees her. 

Hsaio Li-Ming.

His friend, the full ghoul who kissed his forehead and assured him he was loved. The one who bribed a guard to sneak in children’s stories so she could read to him. 

The one who cried every time Tsuneyoshi visited her and tried to mask her bruised lips with a smile. 

The one who, when Furuta slapped her and demanded to know why she stayed, said she couldn’t leave her friends, as she smiled at Shio.  

Shio’s hand shakes. Rikai inhales behind him, and Yusa pales upon recognizing her. 

“You know her?” demands Hirako Take striding up to his frozen kids. 

She’s not more than twenty, and very pretty. Hirako has met many ghouls like her, ghouls who use their innocent looks to destroy. 

He ought to force his squad into the killing, to teach them. But, today, perhaps, he’ll extend mercy to them. He’ll kill her himself.

“Don’t!” screams Shio suddenly. He launches himself in front of her, and Rikai joins him. Yusa wavers but a moment before standing with his friends.

“Who is she?” Hirako asks.

“Our family,” cries Rikai.

Hirako lowers his quinque. “She’s a ghoul.”

“Well, she is! She is! Call Arima.” Shio’s face is soaked with tears. “He can tell you.”

Li-Ming looks stunned. They’ve broken decades of silence just now. She ought to – to kill herself to preserve the Washuus – 

In front of her friends? She hesitates.

The handsome investigator aims his quinque at her. “You – will you wait here until Arima Kishou comes?”

She nods, wordless. 

They used to play a game in the garden. 

What’s the one thing you want in life? It can be anything.

Shio wanted toys, Yusa wanted approval, and Rikai wanted to feel like she mattered.

Li-Ming smiled and said she wanted to live. 

and when Arima arrived, that is how Hirako Take discovered the Garden. 

As I’m on my time of month having super bad cramps, here’s an idea: some ccg members of your choice are fighting an SS rated female ghoul, and when she pauses for breath, she gets stabbed brutally in the stomach. While on the floor, she starts laughing and healing, and laughs to them that she’s had period cramps worse than this(!)

As someone who currently relates to your situation, this is hilarious.

“Over there!” Ui pointed towards the SS-rated Lily, so named for the spider lilies that decorated her ornate mask.

She was surprisingly small, but powerful. A good lesson for the Squad Zero kids. So long as Ui, Hairu, and Hirako could keep them alive.

Hirako swiped around the corner, trapping the Lily’s escape.

She backflipped over a railing and soared down the stairs. Hairu and the kids followed without a second thought.

“Be careful!” Ui yelled.

At the end of the stairs, the Lily bent over and gasped slightly.

She barely had time to dodge Hairu’s swing, before falling into Yusa’s sword quinque.

“Ack,” she gasped, collapsing to the floor.

Hairu eyed her with suspicion. She’s calling bullshit. There’s no way an SS ghoul would go down that easily.

“Don’t take your quinques off her,” she orders.

“Kid, I’ve had period cramps worse than this,” laughs the Lily.

“What’s that?” Shio is confused.

“Does CCG teach you nothing, kid?” She moans as her stomach begins to heal.

“Not now!” Hairu knocks the kids out of the way as the Lily uses her ukaku to soar to a window far above them. 

“Gotta thank you. You’ve given my muscles something else to think about besides their lack of pregnancy,” mocks the ghoul before vanishing.   

“Huh?” Ui and Hirako finally reach them. 

Despite the ghoul’s apparent escape, Hairu looks amused. Rikai looks embarrassed, and Shio and Yusa just look confused. 

“She escaped?”

“We have bigger problems,” Hairu said. 

“Is this something about puberty?” Shio looks to the adults.

Ui squeaks as Hairu nods. 

“What did she say?” Hirako asks, already planning on forcing Arima to answer it later. 

KOORI UI CAN RUN IN HEELS AND NOTHING YOU CAN SAY WILL CHANGE MY MIND. AND MIND YOU, NOT THESE LITTLE TWO-INCHERS, THOSE ARE FOR WIMPS, BOY CAN RUN IN FULL-ON SIX-INCH STILETTOS. (Arima may or may not have made him do a whole operation in a cocktail dress and heels)

Ui Koori did indeed do an entire operation in a cocktail dress and stilettos. Not only that, but Arima Kishou and Hirako Take dressed up in similar gear. Their makeup was handled by Arima’s close friend, author Sen Takatsuki.

Hairu Ihei did her own makeup. As a result, she was the only one who did not look like a prostitute.

since my rare pair has arrived… take introducing irimi to his 0 squad children

– Shio is super excited to meet the infamous leader of the Black Dobers. He also asks her two dozen questions about caring for a puppy in a not-at-all-obvious hint to Take. Lucky for him, Irimi takes his side.

– Rikai is more shy, but Irimi wins her over by being very understanding. They decide that as girls, they must stick together in this new family.

– Irimi is kind enough not to tease Yusa about his famous relative, which is really the only thing Yusa needed to approve of her. They quickly bond, especially since Yusa also wants a puppy. 

– Take: wait we’re in a war here this is not puppy time.

– Irimi: but it’s dating time? Psssh. 

Rare pare time! Irimi and Take’s first date?

@hamliet your pair hath arrived.

– They go to a dog park. How could they not?

– They then realize that while Irimi likes the wild, big, scary dogs, Take prefers the small Shibas and Corgis. 

– That is, Take is mildly intimidated by the large puppers until Irimi takes a doberman baby and puts it in his arms. Then he’s sold. 

– Take is amazed that this gentle, kind, wise woman is a wanted ghoul of infamous savagery.

– Irimi, meanwhile, is smitten that with this gentleman who used to work with Arima himself, who believes himself expendable, yet has added so much to the lives of those in Goat. 

– Take: on our second date, why don’t we go to a dog kennel? Oh, there is going to be a second date, right? *stutters, goes red*

– Irimi: *eyebrows raised, an unreadable smile on her face* Of course, my dear Take.

– Take strikes me as the sort not to kiss on the first date, which Irimi accepts, though she is. They do, however, hold hands on their way back from the park.

1/2 Okay can you write a scenario of next chapter when Yomo arrives back at the bureau late with Uta and Itori. While Touka is scolding Yomo (and getting aggressive looks from Take for bringing No Face), she notices that Uta, who isn’t wearing a shirt, has a bite mark on his shoulder. She takes a sniff and Yomo smells kinda like Uta. She tells him to take his jacket off – to which he gives her a condescending look, but after she presses, he does it and it appears that

2/2 he has a bite mark too and it takes a second for her (and others eg Ayato, Kaneki, etc) to process before overreacting a little.

Okay Nonny-Mouse, I died a little inside reading this. Love it. 

“Uta, are you okay?” Touka gasps at the raw bite on his shoulder. That will scar. For sure. 

“Uh, why is No-Face here?” Take points at Uta, who waves.

“You don’t wanna know,” Itori whispers, a mischievous grin on her shirt. “You don’t wanna sniff it, either.”

“How do you know it’s me if I don’t have a face?” Uta drawls. Touka bends forward to sniff. 

Take growls as Yomo says, “He’s my friend.”

Touka’s face turns green.

Take blanches. “How?” 

“Uncle Yomo, are you hurt, too? I think you should remove your jacket,” Touka says nervously.

Yomo pales. “It’s fine.”

“I think he’s definitely hurt,” Itori cheers.

“Renji, we don’t need you nearly dying again,” Take says. “Take it off.”

Yomo’s face is red as he unbuttons his jacket. He slides it off to reveal an identical mark to Uta’s.

Itori begins clapping.

“You got married?!” Touka shouts. “In the middle of battle?!” 

“I might be pregnant, too,” says Uta. Touka smacks him right in his bite. “Husband, your niece is beating me.”

Some NSFW for Arima, Hirako and Amon.

Arima Kishou

– He’s actually a very nervous lover. You will need to make the first move.

– Even then, you’ll need to be blunt about what you want. He’ll be obliging, of course, and honored that you’d like to do *that* with him.

– He’ll be pleasantly surprised if you go down on him. With you, he feels a little less lonely. 

Hirako Take

– He’s vanilla. (Was there ever a doubt?)

– There will be no partner more concerned with how everything feels to you, and with your pleasure, than Hirako Take.

– He probably plans a romantic dinner at his place, complete with flowers and jewelry, before you do the do. He’s not expectant, of course, but hopeful. 

Amon Koutarou

– He’s, er, well-endowed.

– He’d need to know you very, very well before taking things into the bedroom. Possibly married or engaged first. 

– For Amon, the best thing about sex is the emotional vulnerability. He will treat you like you are holy during and after. 

Squads 0 and S3 versus bras? I had this idea last night at four it’s weird. Thanks

Oh. Oh dear.

Squad Zero

Arima Kishou – I’ve seen kagunes less complicated. NO ONE CAN KNOW THAT THE WEAKNESS OF ARIMA KISHOU IS A BRA.

Hairu Ihei: I hate this contraption. Sports bras all the way. 

Ui Koori: his entire vision goes red with embarrassment and he forgets there’s a bra in the first place.

Take Hirako: Insists his partner not move until he can figure out how to unbutton it. When they suggest they can just pull it off, he’s offended. He wants to learn, dammit.

Squad Three

Suzuya Juuzou: He knows exactly how it works and how to remove it. 

Keijin Nakarai: smoothly tugs the bra over his partner’s head instead of unfastening it.

Mizurou Tamaki: Mizurou vs. bra is a gigglefest that no one in S3 Squad avoided hearing.

Miyuki Mikage: what sort of satanic aliens designed this? 

Hanbee Abara: he melts as soon as he sees a bra. 

Crack request: Uta/Renji/Arima/Tsukiyama all fighting over Take

CANON.

“Arima! You’re alive!” Hirako Take gasps as V dissipates, leaving the dead garden children crawling out of the earth. It would be creepy, but Take can see the recognition in Hairu and Arima’s eyes.

“Wait, wait, wait. No.” Tsukiyama jumps between Take and Arima. “Boy is mine. We bonded over Hajime Hazuki.”

“You stole my sister, now I’m stealing your boyfriend,” Yomo shoots back, uncharacteristically angry for Yomo. He grabs Take’s hand.

“Cheating after I saved your life? Renji, Renji, don’t you know Take Hirako has been mine from the start?” No-Face saunters forward.

“Wait.” Arima speaks slowly. “I came back from the dead for Take.”

“I forgave you for Take,” Yomo replies.

Tsukiyama stomps his foot. “I helped him in Goat!”

“So did Renji,” Uta replies with a shimmy. “And Take and I are destined to battle to the death.”

“I thought that was me?” Yomo crosses his arms.

“Take chooses to raise my newly resurrected garden children with however many of you are willing,” says Hirako. 

“Wait, you let them die?” Arima looks horrified.
