Kaneki goes on his date with Rize like at the beginning of the series but in this scenario Rize isn’t a ghoul and the two genuinely like each other, seeing themselves in the other because of their common interests and whatnot

Awwwwww.

“I really like you.” Rize smiles. She might seem self-assured, but she’s not. She was brought up in a garden, as a human breeder for powerful ghouls, after all.

Nice men? She doesn’t trust them. 

But she wants to trust this one. He seems sweet. He’s easy to talk to. And he likes Sen Takatsuki. 

“I like you, too!” Kaneki cries, and he looks so innocent and joyous Rize lets herself feel joy, too.

He doesn’t even kiss her. He just lets her hug him and walks her home. She’s not expected to do anything for him. Rize nearly cries of happiness.

They meet up time and time again. Eventually, he confesses his upbringing, and Rize can piece together the rest. She holds him as he cries.

“What about you?” he asks, and that’s when she freezes.

But he sees her fear, and he holds her and reassures her. He doesn’t force her to answer.

That’s the first day she kisses him.

They don’t make love until nearly a year later. But when they do, Kaneki knows everything, and he’s angry for her, and he tells her she’s strong and beautiful and amazing. It doesn’t hurt that he bought her a signed copy of Takatsuki’s latest novel. 

He cries after they finish, and Rize laughs. Her joy returns. 

Every day with Kaneki is a joy.

“Why don’t you put away work for this evening?” Rize crawls up behind you to purr in your ear. 

“Hmm?” You ask.

But she’s already laughing and hoisting you up with her kagune. “I want a snack.”

Her rinkaku drops you on the bed you share. “Y/N, do you mind if I eat you?”

You have to laugh. “Is that what you’re calling it?”

“We can share.” Rize smirks and straddles you. You run your hands up her round breasts, and she digs her hands under your shirt. 

“Kiss me,” you whine.

She does, and then begins to gnaw at your lips, just enough to draw blood she eagerly sucks. 

You pull her down against you and push up her skirt. “R-Rize…”

“Yes, Y/N?” Rize’s already pushed down your pants. “You’re my favorite meal, you know. I can’t wait to gobble you up.”

“Only if I don’t get you first.” You finish undressing her, though unlocking her bra is still difficult. The two of you sit, naked together on your bed. You stroke each other and murmur encouragements and throughout it all, you’re awestruck by this ghoul who considers you the love of her life.

Furuta and Rize AU where they end up together and happy

We’re going to pretend Kaneki became a ghoul by different means, Furuta was in on Arima’s plans, and all the human-ghoul conflicts are mostly resolved. 

“Fruit-chan, I’m hungry.” Rize pokes her husband’s nose to wake him up.

Furuta squints in the hazy morning light. “But you’re always hungry.”

“So are you. For me.” Rize smiles slyly at him and starts to climb out of bed.

“Don’t – leave – me.” Furuta tugs her closer.

“I have to eat. For myself and the baby,” Rize says, snuggling next to him.

Furuta chokes. “The what?”

“We’re having a baby. I found out yesterday.” Rize runs her fingers through his dark hair.

Furuta is terrified. “Wha – what if – I mean – I thought we used -”

“Mistakes happen, Fruit.”

“But what if I’m a bad father? We don’t have any examples,” cries Furuta. “A – arima is a poor excuse. Oh my god!”

Rize sighs. “While you’re collecting yourself, I’m going to be eating breakfast.”

—————————————————-

“He’s losing his mind, isn’t he?” Touka hands her a cup of decaf coffee.

“Completely.”

“Ken lost his head when we had our kid, too. He’ll be fine.” 

But after an hour, Touka calls in reinforcements. 

Kaneki begrudgingly enters Rize and Furuta’s bedroom. “Furuta?”

Furuta looks up from where he lies on the floor. His eyes are bloodshot. 

“I think Rize’s supposed to be the nauseated one,” Kaneki jokes. 

“Kaneki, I am barely able to have a happy relationship with Rize,” Furuta whispers. “I can’t have a family. I don’t know families.”

Kaneki sighs and sits beside Furuta. “Now, that’s not true. You know us. We consider you family.”

“How did you manage?”

“One moment at a time.” Kaneki nudges Furuta. “You’re gonna fuck it up. But it’s okay. One moment at a time.”

“I didn’t expect you to swear like that.”

Kaneki rolls his eyes. “Come downstairs and have fun.” 

When Furuta emerges downstairs, Rize holds out her hand and spins him around. She might as well dance gracefully while she still can.

Furuta presses his lips to her. “We better hope he has my eyesight.” 

“We better hope she has my lack of moles,” Rize shoots back. 

“You love my mole,” he whines.

“I do.” Rize nibbles on it.

“Uh, there are children around.” Touka holds up her baby, but she’s smiling. 

can I get some cute fluffy Furukane? I need something to deal with ch 143

*hands out antidotes to Ch. 143*

“Wait, wait, wait.” Kaneki waves his arms around. “You’re telling me your grand plan was to turn me into a kakuja monster and bring everyone down with you?”

“It hinged on my death, yes.” Furuta sips his coffee.

“Fruit, that’s the stupidest plan ever.” Touka scowls at him from where she’s wiping tables across the cafe.

“No, the saddest.” Tsukiyama winks at him. “I love the drama, though, Souta.” 

“But we want you to be alive.” Kaneki touches his shoulder. “I want you alive.”

“I know.” Furuta flushes. He wasn’t counting on Kaneki kidnapping him that moment he confessed his grand upbringing. He wasn’t counting on Kaneki being so decisive, on declaring that the world must know the truth about the Garden. On Kaneki pitying him. 

And slowly, as their plans against V took shape, he’d realized he needed Kaneki in his life. He awoke happy to be alive because Kaneki was there.

Kaneki cared.

Kaneki watches Furuta with a smile. Shio runs up to show off his latest moves, Touka curses him for knocking over her cup of coffee, and Furuta actually smiles.

If Furuta can change, if Tsukiyama and Touka and Kaneki himself can change, the world has a change of uniting across species.

He hopes Furuta hasn’t guessed his feelings yet.

Across the table, Furuta hopes the same. He’s already told Kaneki everything he did to Rize. They’re planning to raid Kanou’s lab again and rescue her. He knows she’ll probably hate him – and should – but once they’ve rescued her, once he’s rectified at least one thing he’s done wrong, he plans on kissing Kaneki.

A scenario from Souta/Nimura’s childhood in the garden?

TW for sexual slavery and Tsuneyoshi being a lecherous skank. 

“Souta, come meet my new cousin!” Ihei Hairu tugs Souta by his hair.

“Ow!” He winces. He’s been across the garden to avoid the screams of the latest birth. He doesn’t like people screaming. 

“Come on!” Hairu races across the grass to the central tent, and Souta dutifully follows. 

“Look at him!” Hairu holds up a chubby-cheeked infant with a wisp of white and blue hair. “His name is Shio! Isn’t he the best?”

Shio cries, and Hairu gasps. “Oh no!” 

She shoves the baby into Souta’s arms, and to his amazement, it quiets down. 

“Oooh, you’ll be a natural papa someday,” says Shio’s mother, circles under her magnificent eyes. She’ll have a month to hold and nurse Shio, before another Washuu warms her bed. 

Iyo and Rize approach, but their faces are considerably more downcast. They’re nearing the age when their bodies change, and soon they know this will be their future.

“Can I hold him?” Hsaio Ching-Li pouts. 

“You’re already holding Yusa.” The one-year-old hangs on her hips, and two-year-old Rikai has her arms around Hsaio’s legs. Furuta tightens his grip on newborn Shio.

“Congratulations.” Arima Kishou strides in and bows towards the exhausted ghoul. “Tsuneyoshi is here.” 

And indeed, the demon Washuu himself sweeps into the tent.

Furuta nervously offers his dad the baby. Everyone holds their breath for his approval; but Furuta is too giddy that Daddy’s fingers brushed his to care.

“He’s a beautiful child,” Tsuneyoshi pronounces. Shio’s mother sighs in relief.

As Tsuneyoshi leaves, Furuta watches his eyes linger on Rize, whose chest is beginning to blossom. She wraps her arms around herself.

This isn’t fair. He doesn’t want her treated like this. Rize doesn’t want this.

Souta knows he has to save her.

Smol Fruit and smol Rize in the Garden.

***Clutches what remains of my heart***

“Were you also…bred?” Souta trembled. He was finally doing it – he was talking to the pretty girl.

“Yes.” She ought to hold out her hand like a polite little girl. Instead, she shoved him. “But I’m a full ghoul. I have a kagune. Want to see it?”

“Yes!” Souta clapped his hands. She was delightfully unlike anyone else here. “I’m Souta!”

“I know,” the girl said. “You know I’m Rize.”

“I like your name.” His face turned red.

“I like you.” She giggled and activated her kagune. It slithered towards him. “You look delicious.”

Furuta Souta would have been okay with her eating him. She was so pretty. “Wow, that’s a pretty big kagune.”

Rize stroked it. “They say it’s special.”

You’re special.” Should he have said that?

Rize took his hand, and he felt certain he knew what heaven was like. “We’re all special, right?”

“I dunno.” He never felt special. Dad – Tsuneyoshi, as Mom always reminded him never to call him Dad – never paid him attention. “Can I touch your kagune?”

Rize nodded. “Ooh, that tickles.”

“I like it! I wish I had one.” He ran his hands down the slippery red tentacles. Maybe then Tsuneyoshi would like him.

“We can pretend it’s both of ours.” Rize pulled him closer. “One condition, though.”

“What?” He felt so happy in her arms, her kagune wrapped around him.

“We start a book club. I stole all the books from the library. the trick is to only take one, and then they don’t notice, and when you put it back, you take another.” Rize fished a copy of The Black Goat’s Egg from her dress. “This is supposed to be a scary one! They said I’m too young for it. Wanna read it together? Please, Souta? I have no one to read with and Mommy says you’re smart.” 

Furuta’s eyes widened. “O – Okay.”

She tackled him. “Don’t worry, I’ll hold you if you get scared. Now, for chapter one.” 

Arima encounters smol lonely Furuta in the Garden.

Do you hear the drips? Smol lonely Furuta melts my heart.

“I heard what you did.” Arima watched Souta closely. The kid kicks his legs back and forth, as if he’s on a swing instead of a brick wall. 

Souta looks at the ground. “She needed to be free.”

“I know.” 

Now Souta looks up at him. Arima agreed? Arima didn’t consider him a reprobate? Everyone treated him like a pariah since. Being whipped for an hour straight after her escape had been more tolerable than their constant disapproval. 

It’s bad enough when Dad treats him this way. He didn’t expect it from everyone else. 

At least he’s stopped crying himself to sleep. If they think he’s a scoundrel, he’ll be a scoundrel beyond their wildest imaginations. And every pain will be worth it when she reunites with him, as he promised her. 

“I love her,” Souta told him. His eyes glitter, dark and proud. Washuu eyes. 

Arima gingerly reaches out and pats his head. He knows childhood love is simple and easily broken. But for now, if it helps his half-brother survive more rejection, he’s happy for him.

But consider all of the cast with lightsabers.

Oh my word

I’ve sorted the characters according to their introductory affiliation.

Anteiku/Re Affiliates

Kaneki Ken – After inheriting a very special bright red/Darth Maul two-sided saber from the fallen Rize Kamishiro, he finds himself hunted by the Dark Side.

Nagachika Hideyoshi – His is light blue, like Luke’s. 

Yoshimura Kuzen – He’s long retired his purple lightsaber, except when he brings it out to clean up after his daughter, Darth Owl. It used to be his lover Ukina’s, from whom he learned how to wield it. 

Kamishiro Rize – She was exceptionally skilled with her two-sided saber, but is currently saber-less. 

Kirishima Touka – Hers is dark blue and she wields it well. 

Koma Enji – Green.  

Irimi Kaya – Green. This is why she and Koma first fought in the 20th ward, before Yoshimura convinced them there was room for two green sabers.

Yomo Renji – Darksaber all the way.

Kosaka Yoriko – Yellow-green, but she would rather not use it. 

Hinami Feuguchi – Yellow, two-sided, and she possesses uncanny skill. 

Nishiki Nishio – green and cracked. 

Nishino Kimi – green (this is how she met Nishiki). He then cracked her crystal by accident, and learned the power of love by her forgiveness. 

Tsukiyama Family

Tsukiyama Shuu – the gourmet’s is indigo to match his hair, and he adores it to the point that he talks to it. Still, he pines after Kaneki’s two-sided saber.

Karren von Rosewald – Servants weren’t supposed to have sabers, but Shuu bought her a rose pink one for her birthday one year. She’s loved him ever since.

Matsumae – the family bodyguard possesses a darksaber. It still thrills her every time she lights it.

Mirumo – passed down the indigo saber to Shuu.

Chie Hori – her tiny green saber was so delectable she and Shuu had to be friends.

Clowns

Uta – Darksaber, but with a cracked crystal. He and Yomo used to make a fierce darksaber team. 

Itori – Hers is bright pink but rarely used, unless you’re counting when she gets drunk and waves it about Helter Skelter pretending she’s a Samurai. 

Hoito Roma – She seemed to have an ordinary red saber. Instead she literally has a four-sided saber she uses for utter destruction. 

Nimura Furuta – he started the series by pushing pipes onto Rize so he could steal her lightsaber, but now that Kaneki has inherited it, he hired Kanou to make a duplicate. Someday, though, he will get the real one. 

Rio/Shikorae – is not trusted with one. Probably for the best.

Nico – pink but cracked. 

Donato Porpora – Purple, cracked.

Aogiri Tree

Kirishima Ayato – dark blue, just like Touka. *pouts*

Yamori – Sabers cauterize wounds. That’s boring. 

Tatara – Green – half of a two sided saber. 

Yoshimura Eto – Darth Owl has a fierce purple lightsaber and exceptional skill.

Noro – Darksaber. 

CCG

Amon Koutarou – Blue-white and pure. 

Takizawa Seidou – blue, but he cracked the crystal while insisting he could make his own.

Mado Akira – green. She made her own, nice and neat. 

Houji Kousuke- the second half of Tatara’s green saber is his. This is the root of their enmity. 

Mado Kureo – His fascination with lightsabers has lead him to have a collection of every color, plus every cracked version. He was missing a green one before Akira made hers. 

Marude Itsuki – It used to be yellow. Inspired by Yoshitoki, he also decorated the label. It did not turn out well, but thankfully, Juuzou Suzuya wrecked it. 

Washuu Yoshitoki – yellow. He’s decorated the label. 

Washuu Matsuri – spent half his childhood (literally half) whining for one. Now he has a yellow one and isn’t not as exciting as he hoped. 

Washuu Tsuneyoshi – He wishes it was purple, but alas, his is yellow. 

Kuriowa Takeomi – He got so good at beating ghouls up with his hands his dad was reluctant to hand down their family’s white saber. 

Kuriowa Iwao – He used to have a white saber. Now he has an orange one, because he gave the white one to Takeomi.

Aura Kiyoko – Blue and damn does she use it well.

Tanakamaru Mougan – Pink. He loves the color. 

Shinohara Yukinori – Green, “the color of life,” he used to remind Suzuya.

Hajime Hazuki – white. Someone take it away from him.

Arima Squad

Ihei Hairu – hers is lemon-colored, and she’s nicknamed it “Sunlight.”

Arima Kishou – His is ordinary light blue. But he can beat even the most powerful sabers with his technique. 

Ui Koori – His is green. Sometimes Hairu tells him they’re lemons and limes, and he enjoys this.

Take Hirako – he ordered light blue to match Arima. 

Ihei Shio – Pink. He and Yusa swapped colors. 

Arima Yusa – white. He didn’t care for the color, but Shio really wanted pink.

Souza Rikai – purple, which she’s very proud of. 

Suzuya Squad

Suzuya Juuzou – green and two-sided. He insisted on green to honor Shinohara. 

Keijin Nakarai – Yellow to match his hair.

Hanbee Abara – Darksaber. He feels silly with it.

Miyuki Mikage – Green, like his boss. 

Mizurou Tamaki – Orange

Quinx Squad

Yonebayashi Saiko – light blue, and she enjoys wielding it, because then she gets to pretend she’s someone from Feudal times. 

Shirazu Ginshi – orange, cracked, and he loved it for its imperfections. 

Urie Kuki – purple, but cracked, and the crack is growing bigger.

Mutsuki Tooru – green, and he’s determined to become as skilled as Kaneki. 

Hsaio Ching-Li – dark saber. Beware her skill.

Aura Shinsanpei – his is dark blue, and he’s either way too fierce or too timid with it. There is no middle ground.

Higemaru Touma – pink, and he likes to light it up for no reason other than he enjoys the sound.
