I had this thought for a plot bunny for a Bleach/Tokyo Ghoul crossover: What if Kisuke Urahara was Kaneki’s father? Like, he met Kaneki’s mom years before when she came to his shop, possessing high reiatsu for a human. They had an attraction that resulted in Kaneki later on. After a hollow attacked Kaneki when he was four, Kisuke replaced their memories of him to protect them and left. Can you do a scenario where Kisuke reunited with Kaneki (OEK) to apologize and tell him he always loved him?

Full disclaimer, I’m not super familiar with Bleach, so I hope my research provides you a sufficient scenario!

“Kaneki Ken.” A pale-haired man with a distinctive striped hat holds out his hand towards the One-Eyed King.

“Who are you?” Kirishima Touka steps in front of Kaneki. There’s something about his eyes that tells her who he is, but she ain’t ready to believe it.

“I’m…I am your father. Kisuke Urahara.” He swallows. He can see his shy, unsure nature in his son.

Kaneki says nothing, but Touka sees his hand fly to his chin. “I see.”

Kisuke brushes Kaneki’s hand with his, and the One-Eyed king falls over.

“What?” Touka cries.

Kaneki remembers his father tossing him in the air, catching him as he giggles. His father describing the decisiveness of good leadership. Claiming he wanted to be exactly like him.

And then he remembers Dad telling him he had to leave, that he was sorry. And Kaneki was just confused why Dad sounded angry instead of sad.

“You…” Kaneki inhales. “You were…”

Is Dad angry at him? He’s failed to be a good leader. He’s failed over and over.

“Kaneki, I love you and I’m so proud of you. Please, let me be your father again.” Kisuke doesn’t dare breathe lest he shatter this moment.

“I’m his wife,” Touka says.

Kaneki smiles tentatively.“Yes, she is. Touka, this is my father, Kisuke Urahara.”

Do you see how broken I am? Can you still love me?

Though Kaneki can’t quite let himself believe it, Touka sees in Urahara’s eyes that he can.

Mutsuki, redeemed, apologizes to Touka et al for what he did.

Mutsuki trembles in the back corner, afraid to approach the Queen.

Sensei’s wife.

She won, but really he won too, because Sensei is alive and the ghouls and humans are getting along, and the Quinx love him and so does Sensei.

But he still doesn’t want to face what he’s done.

Urie sees his discomfort and offers his hand.

Mutsuki takes it, hesitantly, and allows Urie to lead him up to a very pregnant Kirishima – Kaneki? – Touka.

So this is family, when your friends lead to to where you’re too scared to go. Mutsuki taps Touka on the shoulder.

She turns around. Her eyes widen slightly, but she waits.

“I’m – I’m sorry,” Mutsuki says, a tremble in his voice. “I said and did terrible things to you.”

“You have a terrible haircut yourself.” Touka winks. She leans over to hug Mutsuki, like Hinami to Akira. “You’re Ken’s family, so you’re my family too, okay?”

She pokes her stomach. “Besides, Junior’s going to need many uncles.”

Mutsuki smiles nervously. “You’d want me to be an Uncle?”

“Both of you!” Touka nods at Urie. “That good with you?”

“Absolutely,” Urie says, a catch in his voice.

Mutsuki tries to quell fears that he’ll dissociate and dissect the baby. “Um – wow. Thank you.”

“Mutsuki. You’re okay. Really. It’s not easy to face your past.” Touka sighs.

“Thank you.” Mutsuki’s eyes fill with tears. She’s being so kind, and he doesn’t deserve it. “I wish I could take it back.”

“I know. Ken knows, too.” Touka smiles.

“We all know. We all love you,” Urie assures him.

Mutsuki takes a shuddery breath. He’s never known a home, but perhaps one feels like this.

Could you rewrite the kiss during 124 (maybe kaneki starts crying because he misses hide and touka holds him and tells him everything will be alright just before they kiss ❤)

“What did you do when you wanted to see Hide?” Touka hugs her knees to her chest and prays for the hole in her heart to heal.

Kaneki settles besides her. He looks up at the sky. “I was never able to do something concrete. Whenever I felt that way, I was consumed by desire to see him again. I held that desire and that was it.”

He laughs bleakly. “Sorry I’m not much help.”

“No, it’s okay.” Touka slides closer to Kaneki.

Kaneki looks at her with tears in his eyes. “I was a lousy friend.”

It may not be stylish, Kaneki, but live.

“I’d give anything to see him again.” He doesn’t really want to remember what happened in the sewers, if he’s honest. He’s too afraid. Maybe he’s doomed to loneliness.

He takes in a shuddery breath.

“It’s okay to cry.” Touka slides her arm around his shoulder. “I can scream for Yoriko and you can cry for Hide and maybe at the end of the day everything will be all right.”

“I hope so.” Kaneki releases a sob, and Touka presses her mouth into his shoulder to scream.

“Feel better?”

“A little.” He hands her a shaky smile. “Here I thought I was supposed to be comforting you.”

“You did. Just by being here, you did.” Touka leans over him and takes his lips in hers.

Kaneki panics briefly. Does he deserve Touka? And then he remembers.

It may not be stylish, Kaneki, but live.

Touken/Aladdin

Anonymous asked: After that Mulan-Mutsurie mashup, I dare you to write Disney-film mashups for: Ayahina, Touken, Takirona, Akiramon, Uihai, Nishikimi, Tsukikana, Arieto, and Shiraiko. Ty and good night.

I’ll be posting these once a day (probably) until the list is done!

Mutsurie/Mulan: here.

Ayahina/Sleeping Beauty: here.

Uihai/Tangled: here.

Akiramon/The Hunchback of Notre Dame: here.

Tskukikana/The Little Mermaid: here.

Nishikimi/Snow White: here.

Takirona/Frozen: here.

Shiraiko/Beauty and the Beast: here.

Arieto/Cinderella: here.

“Stop it!” Touka ignores her aching ankles to spring forward and grab Dr. Kanou. “Leave her alone!”

Rize moans from the floor, where Kanou has ordered his henchmen to extract stab her kakuhou for fun.

Kanou smirks at the pregnant ghoul he has chained to him. Touka’s suspicions rise as he raises his hand.

“It pains me to see you reduced to this, my precious. You’re quite the firecracker.” He strokes her stomach. “You should be at your husband’s side, fighting the new world my science will establish. What do you say? Your child for your freedom?”

Touka’s kakugans ignite. “Never!”

Kanou’s strike sends her reeling back. Her balance hasn’t been as good since she began her third trimester.

“I have an idea. Uta!” Kanou claps his hands.

“Yes?” Uta, for once in his life, has found himself imprisoned. He can’t leave or V will kill him, and while he doesn’t fear death, he does – just a smidge – career about Yomo’s niece.

“The child should be old enough on its own. Cut it out of her.”

Uta’s face remains blank, but he hesitates.

“Don’t hesitate around me, monster!” Kanou stands – and behind him, Touka sees Kaneki peering down from the skylight.

Her heart pounds. She hasn’t seen him in months. He looks so weary.

She knows what she has to do.

“Dr. Kanou.” Touka stands and saunters over to him. “I have another proposition.”

“Oh?”

“Say you can make my child live forever. I want to live with them, too.” Touka’s lips tremble. “You know, I’ve been so lonely as a ghoul.”

Uta’s mouth drops open, but in the corner of his eye, he sees Rize nod.

“Can you really save us?” Touka grabs Kanou’s face.

One of V’s agents tries to yell, but an RC shot from Ayato knocks him unconscious.

Kaneki’s tendrils wrap around the doctor.

“You!” screams Kanou. He throws Touka to the floor, but Uta catches her.

Uta detaches his kagune around her stomach as Kanou sprays Kaneki with Rc suppressants.

A swarm of GOATs – from former CCG investigators like Suzuya and Akira, to Aogiri’s Ayato and Naki, to their Anetiku pals Irimi and Koma and Tsukiyama – leap from the ceiling.

“You dare defy me? You were my finest creation!” Kanou bellows. His creation quivers on the floor.

“Was I? Do you think that makes you powerful? You’ll never be powerful.” Kaneki laughs. “Because you’re just chasing after the power we ghouls already have.”

“Is that so.” Kanou smirks. “Uta! Bring me the Rc activators!”

In a flash, Kaneki sees his gamble paid off: Kanou reveals that he, too, has a kakugan. Uta shoves the activators at him, and Kanou jams the needle into his eye.

“Hahahaha!” An enormous ukaku flies up towards the ceiling.

Touka scrambles back, but as she does, she notices vials of Rc suppressants tantalizingly in reach.

“Don’t,” Uta says.

But in typical Kirishima fashion, she ignores him and lunges for the vials.

“Now who’s more powerful?” shrieks Kanou. Kaneki scrambles to avoid a blow from the doctor’s kagune.

And Touka jams the needle straight into his shoulder blade.

For a moment, everything is silent.

“No!” wails Kanou as his vision begins to blur. “You bitch -”

Touka rushes to Kaneki’s side as the doctor collapses. “See, I told you your smarts were your strength.”

Indeed, all his fights and loneliness – and he had the answer within him this whole time. Kaneki would feel ashamed, but Touka is smiling at him, and he hasn’t seen her in so long.

“Kaneki, you’re a genius,” says Uta as the two lovers kiss.

“No,” says Touka, running her hands through his hair in a fashion that’s a bit too adult for Yomo, “he’s the king.”

‘i kinda want to see touka as “mom” to the quinxes. that would be funny as hell.’ also please. I made unnatural sounds reading that

Lol yessssss.

Aura Shinsanpei is slouched on the couch, reading the latest articles on the ghoul-human truce, when someone pushed his bangs out of his eyes. “Hey!”

“Sorry,” says a heavily pregnant Kirishima Touka, “But you have a pretty face. You should show it more.”

He blushes.

“Aw,” teases Higemaru.

“Are you drinking more coffee? You don’t need it.” Touka tries to tug the coffee away. “Holy hell, what are you drawing?”

“Monsters,” Higemaru says brightly.

Touka is partially fascinated, partially repelled by the twisted mass of limbs and eyeballs Higa has sketched. “If you ever show them to our kid, I’ll make sure you wind up looking like that.”

“I drew a new ending for our manga!” Saiko rushes downstairs. “Miss Touka, you’re part of it.”

“Am I?” Touka sounds scared.

“She made you the witch who saves the day,” Hsaio assures her. “And the real reason we came down is that Urie won’t stop working out.”

“He’s being macho.” Saiko scowls. “He doesn’t know how to handle peace time.”

“I’ll have a talk.” Surely their kid cannot be more difficult than these ghoul-human hybrids. Touka stomps upstairs, where Mutsuki is counting how many pushups Urie can do in one minute.

“You’ve been working out for three hours. Soon you’ll just be one giant muscle cell.”

“Yes, Mom.” Urie rolls his eyes.

“Eh? I can still whoop your ass, Oreo Cookie.” Touka ignites her kakugans.

Mutsuki smiles shyly at her. He’s still scared she secretly hates him. “Is the baby moving today?”

Touka pokes her stomach as her eyes return to normal. “Yep.”

“Can I feel it?” Mutsuki is terrified, but Touka told him to face everything he was terrified of ‘within reason.’ “Oooh.”

Urie skittles out, but Touka yells, “You get your butt back in here and feel Kaneki’s kid too, Cookie!”

“And change my attitude while I’m at it?” Urie bats his lashes, which in Touka’s opinion, are way too long for a boy.

“You know it.”

Suzuya and choses not to fight Touka please!

~~What do you mean this isn’t canon~~

Suzuya gasps. The ghoul he hit with the knife – she’s the – the one –

She brought Mr. Shinohara flowers!

But why? Is she like Sasaki, a nice ghoul?

She meets his eyes, dragging the knife out of her flesh.

Why do I have to kill her?

“Why did you do it?” Suzuya’s voice trembles. “Why did you bring him flowers?”

“Because no one deserves to die, of course!” Yotsume activates her kakugan, shoving Kirishima Touka behind her.

“But you kill us for food.”

“We don’t. We eat corpses, don’t you see?” Touka rasps. Her own ukaku flies out behind her. No way is she letting this kid – the one Kaneki spoke of so fondly – kill any of her kids here.

Her eyes fill with tears as she recognizes the quinque he wears. “Kaneki loved you, you know.”

Suzuya feels Arata restrict his movements. “What…”

“That’s my father’s armor,” Touka spits at him. “Good luck killing me with it. How would you like if I killed you with your precious Shinohara?”

But she didn’t kill him with Shinohara. She gave Mr. Shinohara flowers.

Her father…Arata is her father…Does she miss him, too?

“What are you waiting for?” bellows Furuta. His eyes gleam.

He knows what Arata is.

Suzuya sends a knife straight into Furuta.

The director gags.

“Suzuya!” screams Hanbee.

“He’s tricking us!” Suzuya points at CCG’s Director. “Capture him!”

“What – you – no!” cries Furuta, but Keijin and Mizurou are already on it.

“We’re going to talk this out,” Suzuya decides.

Could you do something for Urie confronting Haise about cochlea, Arima, and Mutsuki dying (?) because of him.

In the words of our great lord Hideyoshi Nagachika: it may not be stylish, Mutsuki, but live.

“You – you!” Urie splutters. All he can manage is rage. “Sasaki Haise, Kaneki Ken, Centipede, whatever your fucking name is!”

He marches forward and punches Kaneki straight in the nose.

“That seems violent.” Serpent watches curiously.

“You left us! You left Mutsuki – don’t you remember asking me to save him? It was the last thing you fucking said to me! And now he might die thanks to your Raven over here!” Urie flips off Yomo, who winces.

“In Yomo’s defense, Mutsuki was overly fond of knives,” Kirishima Touka snaps.

“Shut up, Rabbit.” Urie whirls back to Sasaki. Kaneki. Sasakaneki. “You killed Arima. You loved Arima. What the fuck?!”

Sasakaneki (Urie feels quite clever for the name) bows his head.

“Are you not going to answer?” screams Urie. “We need answers!”

“I know!” Sasakaneki raises his head to reveal tears in his eyes. “I know! God, what can I say -”

“You can start with ‘I didn’t kill Arima Kishou,’” suggests Hirako Take.

Urie does a double-take. “What?”

Kaneki swallows. “No – I did.”

Hirako shakes his head. “He wanted you to, but I saw. He killed himself and should have never asked you to pretend you did. You’re not betraying him if you tell the truth.”

Kaneki swallows.

“Why?” Urie is thoroughly confused.

“There was a ghoul family running CCG,” Kaneki says.

“I know.”

“Arima was one of Demon Tsuneyoshi’s offspring,” says Itsuki Marude.

“He joined with Eto Yoshimura to take down the world,” Kaneki says. His voice wobbles. “And gave me his inheritance: the One-Eyed King.”

“Okay, first Arima killed himself, then he’s a ghoul, now he’s the One-Eyed King?” Urie growls.

“Yes. He was all of those, and my friend.” Kaneki shivers. “I miss him.”

“Did you miss us?”

“Of course I did!” Kaneki cries out, and Urie, for once, believes him.

“You hurt us all.” Urie shakes his head. “You can’t be a king if you lie to your people.”

“Then join GOAT and be an advisor,” Tsukiyama Shuu, that rotten Gourmet, finally sees a chance to speak. “It’s lonely doing it all by myself.”

“All by yourself?” Touka barks. “Excuse you?!”

Urie looks around this crazy, dysfunctional family that reminds him so much of the Chateau, yet he doesn’t belong here.

Kaneki places a hand on his shoulder. Urie remembers framing out. Maybe he does belong, after all.

He’s not ready to hug his leader, but he is willing to learn. “Tell me everything.”

Seidou finding and reuniting with his old pet dog, Rocky. Because feels and boi sure is lonely. It’d be nice to let him see his lil buddy again after going through the whole Kanou mess and losing his family. </3

My heart!

Takizawa Seidou trudges his way back to Re. He wishes he had a different life. Or even death. Anything but this.

He shoves open the door to Re. Yasuhisa Kurona looks up nervously.

“What?” he mutters.

“We got something for you,” squeaks Ayato. “As a present for helping with Amon.”

“Huh?”

Yip! A short, chubby creature barrels towards him.

Takizawa gasps. He looks just like Rocky.

He wonders what happened to Rocky. Did someone adopt him? Was he sad when Mom and Dad didn’t come home? Did he feel abandoned?

“That is Rocky.” Amon appears.

“HInami tracked down your damn dog,” Ayato adds. “Wasn’t easy, but she did it.”

Takizawa gasps. “This is – it’s you, boy?”

He reaches for Rocky, who immediately licks his hand. Takizawa cries out in joy.

“It sure is.” Kurona smiles.

“My dog!” Takizawa draws the creature to his chest. Rocky’s tail wags with excitement. He still loves Seidou.

Someone still loves me. Takizawa is too overcome to say more.

“Treats.” Kurona hands him a milk bone to give Rocky.

“Hey, hey, hey! Why is there a dog contaminating my cafe?” Touka Kirishima stomps in. “Get that thing upstairs!”
