Oooh I’m sorry for misunderstanding!
“You almost threw Hori off a roof?” Tsukiyama’s SO gapes at him.
“It was a mere jest.”
“Did she think so?” They jab their finger at him. Tsukiyama, at least, has the dignity to appear chastened. “Shuu. You’re going to get caught.”
“I already have been,” he purrs, delivering them his slyest smile.
“You imp!” They roll their eyes, but press their lips against his cheek.
Tsukiyama glances behind him to see Matsumae appear. “We should go get coffee or something, my fair elf.”
They shake their head in amusement as Tsukiyama heads off with them. Matsumae’s already not thrilled about Chie. She’ll be even less pleased that he’s out with a human date.
Tsukiyama doesn’t come home until late. He spends his time below the stars, kissing them with burning passion he’s never felt before, leaping through the bushes to pluck a rose for them. They exclaimed in dismay when he pricked himself on a thorn, but his regeneration healed him immediately. And he felt pleased to be a ghoul.
He calls them ma chere and can’t stop smiling even now, that he’s already walked them home.
“Ahem.”
As soon s the door to the Tsukiyama mansion swings shut behind him, Tsukiyama sees Matsumae standing behind it with her arms crossed.
“Hello there, Madam,” he purrs.
“What are you doing, Shuu?”
“You mean [Name]?” He flutters his lashes.
“I know you’re excited to be in the ghoul restaurant, but if you take them there, you’ll be the number one suspect.” Matsumae glares at him.
Tsukiyama pales.
“I’m not taking them to the restaurant.”
“Either way.”
“No, you don’t understand.” He swallows. His mouth is uncharacteristically dry. “I … I don’t want to eat them.”
Matsumae’s eyes widen.
“I love them,” Tsukiyama protests. “I would never hurt them.”
“I see,” she says quietly. “Be careful nonetheless.”
She leaves him, then, but the next day he finds a business card for Tokyo’s best flower shop on his desk.
And, after a few months, a box of condoms. o.O
Oh shoot, you wanted headcanons. It’s been a long week. I’m sorry!
– Tsukiyama probably met his SO at high school. Possibly, they helped him out with a subject he’s bad at (math).
– They realized they had similar fashion tastes. Shopping becomes a favorite activity of theirs.
– He buys them expensive dinners, flowers, and chocolate. He also envies their ability to eat chocolate, which they occasionally tease him with. He will then pretend to be heartbroken.
– Matusumae knows, and subtlety approves. She probably hopes a human SO will help calm Shuu down.
– He’s hesitant to admit all his sordid activities to them, but they’ll probably accept him while still encouraging him to do better.
– When Shuu introduces them first to Mirumo, his father is stunned that they’re human, but once he sees how happy they make Shuu, and how well they treat him, he’ll be like a second father.
