Saw the ask and wanted to suggest, perhaps his mother had spiraled out of control? We know how she was when the priests didn’t believe her so imagine her own son saying she’s saying “silly things” and still playing with this “demon” of a child? We never really see Tsukasa be violent towards Amane before death and even after death, there’s this lingering affection that both brothers have for each other, even Amane (as Hanako) is surprised of his brother’s actions in “Mitsuba” asking him why he’s doing such things and in “hell of mirrors,” he’s shocked and horrified about Tsukasa being in the same place as a dead mystery, becoming even more disturbed when Tsukasa recalls their memory of watching Frankenstein as if he’s just now realizing that the boy he sat next to him was perhaps bad all along? Even so, Hanako doesn’t seem upset that he is being hugged and squeezed, merely uncomfortable with the situation as a whole because he just witnessed his childhood memory become utterly shattered into a million pieces. We know from the ages of 7 that Amane had a very good albeit “distant” relationship with fake Tsukasa, explaining that he’s been playing Katanuki for hours, a game he’s obsessed with. Now looking at this, and also wt his affectionate nature—way more than real Tsukasa—, it’s kind of weird that this supernatural entity has the capability to be very nice.
One instance is the welcome party for Mitsuba who became no.3, where he admits he likes him and even gives Mitsuba the fake world as a gift. The other instance is when he’s rambling to Sakura about how cool Mitsuba was after hell of mirrors (but Mitsuba didn’t do anything that Tsukasa claimed he did, yet, Tsukasa is happily bragging and flailing around), one more instance is when, in the spin off, he showed Mitsuba the sea and I’m probably forgetting some more but it’s obvious this entity can be genuinely nice so the question is… was he really ever violent with amane or was he made to be violent because of the house and the mother’s deteriorating mental state?
Eh, damn 😂
What you said is all right!
I’ve always had mixed feelings if fake Tsukasa really was violent towards Amane or towards anyone in general... I always wanted to believe the contrary but at the same time... UGH! It’s confusing someway ‘cause fake Tsukasa has some real Tsukasa’s mechanisms as if he’s alike the real one in some behaviors, however we know that, in reality, he’s completely different because of that cursed spirit of the house.
As you said, “Tsukasa” was never shown to be a violent brother back in the twins’ childhood, neither before entering middle school. We know for sure that something has been happening to Amane as soon as he entered that middle school, tho it’s still very unsure if those bruises were caused by someone, self inflicted or even something worse.
I personally think that fake Tsukasa just took after, from the real one, the loving side for his brother and the too bright personality: that’s why, before the information given in chapter 78, we felt this hate/love thing towards him (fake one) because he only imitated real one’s behaviors (thus as being lovely, cute, jumping on Amane whenever he sees him, kind of a caring side towards him and even Mitsuba...), then boom he switches to his actual true self: the evil sadistic “Tsukasa” we know, so the one “controlled” by the spirit of the cursed house.
The character of Tsukasa is now split in 2 so this made us more confused than ever ‘cause it’s as if the Tsukasas represented the good and the bad side.
Fake Tsukasa is the bad side
Real Tsukasa is the good side
2 different sides of the SAME person.
lt’s like when one person’s personality get split in 2 thus comporting the separation of the good and the bad of a person.
But this is just a symbolic interpretation of the 2 Tsukasas, we know that the cursed house is the main culprit behind all of this mess, sadly...
Aaaaand my brain is evaporating woo 🤝
Pairing: Todoroki Shoto x Reader, Todoroki Shoto x Yaoyorozu Momo
Warnings: Has mature content, profanity, mentions of infidelity and divorce
A/N: barely proofread and hella late 😭🙏🏻 i'm sorry!! But ahhh we're close to the end!! Thank you to my babies who stayed up until this chapter and are still looking forward to my updates. As usual, I love hearing your thoughts! Let me know what you think!!
Masterlist
Momo hates being at the hospital. To her it means she failed at something. Failed at protecting herself or the people she cares about.
She resents it. The plain white walls, the smell of sterilants hanging thick in the air, the medical personnels either walking about trying to function despite being tired out of their minds or running around desperately to save someone else's life.
There's also the lot of them, either patients or just someone anxiously waiting for a test result or a goddamn miracle. Or like her, both.
She finds her breath catching when the secretary peaks in to tell her the doctor is ready to see her now. Her mind reeling back to the night Shoto bid her goodbye. She just remembers feeling so much anger and pain but all that was replaced by shame and guilt the moment she confronted you that night. Momo swallows hard, her hand drifting on her lower belly as she steps into the clinic. God, help her.
Momo spoke robotically as she told the doctor her concerns. Missed period, feeling nauseated and fatigued constantly, her breasts tender, some intense cravings and cramping on her lower stomach..
This couldn't be possible, right? It's days away from her ovulation when they last did it unprotected. She even took the morning after pill. She's not dumb. She took precautions. She's safe.. right?
Yaoyorozu felt nothing as blood was taken, her mind was too preoccupied with worries. Because what if this is karma? Wouldn't it be so ironic to get pregnant now right when Shoto just decided to end the affair after over a year? Wouldn't that just be the universe's way of saying fuck her for screwing someone else's husband and dad?
She feels bile rising in her throat as she considers the possibility of being actually pregnant. God, she isn't ready. What about her career? What would people think? How is she going to do this alone??
But..
What if this.. this baby is her salvation? Her light at the end of this long, painful tunnel? A piece of the man she loves that she would get to keep. A soft gasp escapes her at the realization, a tear slowly sliding down her cheek.
Momo swears time has never moved this slow before in her life. So much so that she played all kinds of scenarios in her head and by the time her results arrived, she was at a state of nadir.
"Yaoyorozu-san.." the doctor starts, smiling warmly at her. Momo hyper focuses on the doctor, latching on to her every word. Her brows shoot up by the end of her statement, the burden anchoring her heart and nervousness from the dreading vanishing in an instant.
"Thank you." She breathes, a wide smile erupting from her lips as tears rim her eyelids. "Thank you so much."
And as Momo walks out of the clinic, she feels like a new person. As if she's given another chance at life. She's so happy that when she bumps into a friend, she bursts further in tears as she hugs her.
"Momo?" Uraraka was obviously startled seeing her at the hospital but she hugs her back, running a comforting hand as the ebony haired girl sobs against her shoulder. "Hey, are you okay??" Uraraka then asks, glancing up at the clinic Momo just walked out of.
"Never been better. Thank you." Momo smiles through her tears as she pulls away. Uraraka gasps softly, proceeding to wipe her friend's cheeks. "Wait, are you?-" she starts to ask, glancing back at her obstetrician's clinic.
"Yeah." Momo lets out a tearful laugh, interrupting her. "I'm good. I'm sorry, Ochaco but I have to go. It was nice seeing you though." She lets her go and the gravity hero does so too reluctantly, thinking of course she'd want to tell her family first.
"Sure, yeah! Get home safely!" She says, mirroring her contagious smile and watches Momo excitedly head for the exit.
---
"What did I say?" Uraraka asks Mina in shock as you walk past them, looking as if you've just seen a ghost.Mina winces and scratches her neck, asking back, "Haven't you heard of the rumors?" She lowers her voice even more and walks closer to the brown haired girl, whispering, "Todoroki is having an affair with Yaoyorozu."
Uraraka gasps, her heart falling down her stomach as she stares after you. "I didn't know." She mutters regretfully. "Oh god."
"Are you sure though? Is Momo really pregnant?" Mina asks. Uraraka nods meekly, a frown tugging the corners of her lips. "My husband asked Iida-kun and I to help on their mission after Bakugo dropped out. I then noticed Momo was feeling sick." The gravity hero explains, "She was always nauseated and fatigued. I knew she was secretly dating someone, but she never said who it was! So when I said she should get checked because I think she might be pregnant."
"After that, I coincidentally saw her come out of my obstetrician's clinic. She looked so happy, she was even crying when she hugged and thanked me." Uraraka sighs. "But God, I didn't know she was with Todoroki. I should have kept my stupid mouth shut."
Mina sighs too and pats her back saying, "It's alright, you didn't know." She then looks at you as you head to the exit, shoulders slumped and visibly trembling, due to which Mina could only guess are the sobs rippling out of you. "Poor Y/n."

Is this what you get? For thinking things are actually starting to look up for you and Shoto finally? For thinking there's a tad hope left?
You wobble in your high heels as you walk to the car where Shoto already was with Yukio. God, you don't even want to see his face right now but you don't really have a choice. When Shoto sees you emerging from the double glass doors of the hotel leading to the parking lot with tears flooding down your face, his eyes widen. Shoto jumps out of the car and runs towards you.
"Y/n, what happened?" He asks worriedly and tried to reach for you but you slapped his hand away, "Do not fucking touch me." You say through gritted teeth, rooting him in place with your tearful glare.
"Just get in the damn car. Or if you want, call a driver or walk, I don't care. I'm going home with my son." You walk past him. "I want you out of the house first thing in the morning."
Shoto swallows hard, brows shooting up in confusion. "Love, wait I don't understand, I thought-" he catches your wrist before you could open the car door. "Hey, can you tell me what's going on? What happened?" He asks again desperately, grabbing your elbow and making you face him.
"What happened is you fucking ruined everything!" Your face is red as you turn to him screaming. "And I can't believe I dumb myself down for you! Thinking we could work through this somehow or at least have a decent relationship for Yukio!" You sob as you push him away. Shoto's heart breaks all over again. He thought so too after your conversation last night. What the hell changed?
Shoto tries to reach for you again and this time you don't push him away. "Y/n, I'm trying, I promise." He mutters, voice starting to tremble.
You shake your head dismissively. "Was that speech of yours last night another one of your lies?" You asked. Shoto frowns defeatedly as he looks into your eyes, the little trust he regained last night no longer there. "What? No, I meant every word. I love you-"
"So much, right?" You asked mockingly, a wry laugh escaping you. Using his own words to throw daggers at your husband's heart. "You love me so much that you slept with someone else? That you were so ready to throw away everything, even our family?"
You pulled away from him and screamed into your palms, muffling your cries. "God, Shoto. As if hurting me and risking our son's future and well-being is not enough! You had to go and be stupid to bring another innocent kid into this world to drag into your mess!" Your chest heaves as you desperately try to push air down your lungs. The surprise that painted your husband's face made you scoff.
Shoto's mouth drops open. He is on the brink of his sanity at this point, turning pale just like you did earlier upon hearing the news. His knees feel like they're going to give in underneath him.
"Momo's pregnant?" He asks breathlessly.
"Are you expecting someone else? Did you put your dick in another whore?" You ask sarcastically and Shoto shudders, shaking his head vehemently. "Then who else could it be?? Of course, it's Momo!"
"Are you sure?" He asks, eyes blown wide with fear. You sigh heavily, stubborn tears leaking out. "At least that's what I've been told. Maybe you should go to her and find out for yourself. But as far as I am concerned, I am done with the two of you." You turn on your heel, wanting nothing more than to be with just Yukio.
"Y/n, wait-" Shoto tries again though, hugging you tight from behind. "Wait, please."
"For all the bullshit you told me last night, you at least got one thing right." You mutter. "I do not need to hurt myself further by staying with you while you clean up the messes you made. And if you really are having another kid with Momo, then I truly have no reason left to fight for us. I'm done, Shoto."
"Y/n, don't give up on me please." He whimpers, burying his face on the crook of your neck. "You and Yukio are all I have left."
"You should have thought of that before." You grit your teeth and pry his hold off of you. "I'm done."
You got into the car defeatedly and stopped short before driving off. You turned to look at him for the last time and saw Shoto still unable to process what you just said to him, staring at the ground, tears speckling the concrete by his feet. You could almost feel bad for him.
But you can't keep trying to save this relationship at your expense. You can't be the one taking all of the burdens all the time. So as much as it pains you, as much as you still love your husband after everything he's done, you're choosing to walk away.
You got in the car with a heavy heart, tears now freely falling down your cheeks. You were so engrossed with your own sorrow that you didn't realize Yukio had woken up and was looking at your sobbing figure. He pretends to go back to sleep for your sake, his own little heart breaking in pieces.
---
When you get home, your eyes are almost shut from all the crying. You couldn't help the hiccups escaping you even as you open the door to take Yukio from the car seat. To your surprise, your son has tear streaks staining his cheeks. Your vision blurs as a wave of fresh hot tears prick at your already sore tired eyes.
"Honey, hey." You try to plaster on a smile but it just comes out wrong, Yukio just stares at you and places his little hand on your face, wiping the tear that had just fallen. "Let's get you to bed." You picked him up and carried him into the house. You feel Yukio's small hand gently rubbing your back just like how you used to comfort him if he's scared or upset. The gesture had you biting back the impending cries that wanted to escape you, thinking how fortunate you are to have such a good son.
"You and dad are fighting again." He asks meekly as you sit him in bed to change his clothes. Yukio starts sniffling seeing how hurt you are as he looks at your face. "Mommy," he started to cry too. "Please, stop crying."
"I'm sorry." You muffle your sob, kissing the side of his head. "Mommy's okay. I'm so sorry." You hugged him tight, worry flooding you. Has he been awake all that time? Did he hear you and Shoto fighting? How much does he understand?
"Was it because of me again?" Yukio then asks, making your brows furrow. You pulled away and held his face.
"Honey, no. God, no!" You shake your head vehemently. "Why would you think that?"
"Because I don't clean my toys right away after I play? Because I always run around the house and tease Kenshin-san? Because I'm always noisy when dad is busy in his office?" He cries harder and you realize these are the little things Shoto used to scold him about. "Because I can be good, mommy, l promise."
"Tell dad I'll be good." He hiccups. "Maybe then he won't fight with you again."
You thought you were utterly broken before but wow, were you mistaken. It felt as if your soul left your body. Your sweet son thought this is all his fault and he's blaming himself. But thank heavens he didn't hear or understand what you and Shoto were actually fighting about earlier.
"Yukio, listen to me." You rub your thumbs against his cheeks and wipe his tears. "Daddy and I have problems to deal with, but none of that was ever your fault." A whimper escapes you as you hold him tight, rubbing his back soothingly to try and calm him. "We both love you so much. You're the best thing that happened to us so don't you ever say those things again."
You pull away just enough to lean your forehead against his and say, "You're the best son anybody could ever dream of having. You're kind, smart, creative, funny and so thoughtful. Your dad and I love you so much!" Your voice breaks as a broken sob escapes you. "I feel very lucky to be your mommy and I would do anything for you."
The toddler continues to sniffle, his arms looping around your neck to hug you again. "I don't want to see you crying anymore, mommy." He murmurs. You muffle your sobbing on his shoulder, gazing up at the ceiling as you try to will the tears to stop. "Okay, love. Okay." You whisper, kissing him on his shoulder. You take a deep breath and nod, wiping your eyes and face as you pull away to face him.
You smile down at him and he slowly stops crying too. Your shaky smile turns into a genuine one seeing Yukio smile back.
"I promised, didn't I?" You then lean in to kiss his nose. "Mommy can do anything for you."

God, he should have left the party earlier. Why did he really have to witness this shit?
Bakugo sighs heavily, sitting in his car and thinking he should probably just run the fucking bastard over to end his misery. Did he really just fucking got that slut pregnant?
"Goddamned asshole." He mutters as he glares at Todoroki, standing amidst the parking lot like the idiot that he is. He then sees you drive out of the building and he puts his car on drive. The tire screeched against the pavement as he stopped just a foot away from Todoroki.
"Get in." He grumbles. Todoroki blinked at him and wiped his face. Bakugo groans when another bloody second passes with Shoto just gawking at him. "Get in the fucking car and let's go see for ourselves if you really did knock that bitch up!"
Todoroki soundlessly gets into Bakugo's customized orange and black Pagani. Bakugo exhales sharply as he starts driving. "For a damn second there, you had me rooting for you, Icyhot." He grumbles. "I thought maybe you were just stupid but you actually do love Y/n and can still deserve her. But if ponytail is really carrying your kid, then.. shit."
"If she is, then I have to take responsibility." He mutters. "For everything that I did. Y/n would probably never forgive me. But I deserve that. I just hope she won't keep Yukio from me."
Bakugo throws a quick glance at him, trying to decipher what's really going on inside his head.
"And if Yaoyorozu isn't pregnant? What then?" Bakugo asks. Shoto looks as if he hasn't considered that possibility. Bakugo almost reached over and smacked him thinking, did he really fucked his mistress raw? How stupid is he??
But then, Todoroki clenches his jaw and says, "Then I'll do what I promised you earlier." He says with a determined look on his face. "Get my shit together and win back my wife and son. This time, making sure I actually deserve to be in their life."
---
"Are you sure about this?"
Yaoyorozu smiles at her dad and gives him a hug. "Yeah, dad." She then sighs. "I just hope mom will eventually come around and forgive me." Her dad rubs her back and squeezed her once before letting her go.
"Your mom loves Y/n as her own." He says, tucking a loose lock behind her ear. "What you did is terrible but not completely unforgivable, especially now that you've realized how wrong you are and are regretful about it. But I want you to reach out to Y/n, to continue asking for her forgiveness."
Momo nods, her lips quivering. "I will, dad. Just not right now, things are still so fragile and Shoto did say they're going to try and work things out." She sighs. "I don't want to get in the way of that. So this would probably be best."
Her father sighs too as he glances at the last of his daughter's luggage being loaded on the car. "If you think so, darling. Make sure you take care of yourself. And call me the moment you land."
Yaoyorozu hugs her father tightly and says her goodbye. But then she sees Bakugo's outrageous sports car pull up in front of their manor. Her eyes widened seeing Shoto in the passenger's seat.
"What is he doing in here?" Her father asks and Momo had to place a hand on his chest. "Dad, please. He's probably just here to say goodbye." She murmurs. "Let me talk to him. Get inside, I'll head to the airport right after. I promise."
Yaoyorozu's dad fixed his glare at Shoto then back at her. "No more mistakes, Momo. No more." He warns, gaze softening as he cradles her cheek before heading to the house.
Momo sighs and nods at her driver to go wait inside the car. She then meets Todoroki halfway and eyed Bakugo behind him who remained seated inside his car.
"You're leaving?" Shoto asks as he stops in front of her. Yaoyorozu nods and crosses her arms over her belly, making Shoto's eyes zero on it.
"Yeah, I figured this is better,for all of us. Start anew." She murmurs. "I'm so sorry for everything."
"Me too." Todoroki says and wets his lips. "But what about the baby? Didn't you plan to tell me?"
Yaoyorozu looks taken aback, her brows knitting. "What?"
Shoto closes the distance between the two of them and holds her arms. "You're carrying our child. That's why you're leaving, right?" He sighs. "If that's your decision, I'll respect it. But I want to help you through it. I want to work on myself for Y/n and Yukio. And taking responsibility for you and our kid is a part of it-"
"Wait, wait, stop-" Momo places a hand on his arm, shaking her head.
"I'm sorry, Momo. I am choosing Y/n. But I'll support you on this, I won't abandon our-" he continued to ramble on and Momo had to physically shut him up.
"Todoroki, I am not pregnant!" She practically screams at him out of frustration.
Shoto rips her hand away from his mouth and stares at her in.. relief. "You're not?" He asks, he could not help the small smile tugging the corners of his lips.
"No!" She shakes her head vehemently. "Who told you?" Momo asks out of curiosity but before Shoto answers, her eyes widen, recalling her interaction with Uraraka a few days ago and her mouth slacks. "God, it was my mistake. I'm so sorry." She then says but to her surprise, Shoto hugs her.
"No. I'm sorry." He says and then sighs. For the first time in a while, Shoto feels hopeful. There may be a chance left for him and Yaoyorozu to redeem themselves.
Momo took a deep breath and hugged him back tight. "I forgive you. I hope one day Y/n will forgive us too." She murmurs. Shoto pulls away first and gives her a sad smile. "If there's one thing I'm sure about my wife, it's that she's the strongest and most loving woman I know."
"Do everything to win her back. You won't get to find another woman like that." Momo says with a tearful smile, cupping his cheek. "Make sure this time around, you deserve her and never take her for granted."
"I will." Shoto murmurs. "Take care of yourself, alright?" He says and Momo exhales shakily. She couldn't help herself and hugged him one last time. She still does love him but now knows her place. And his place, which is by your side and Yukio's. "You too, Shoto." She mumbles against his shoulder.
"Alright, alright! Jesus." Bakugo rolls his eyes as he pries the two off of each other.
"So you're not knocked up, right?" Bakugo clarifies, Momo glares at him but nods anyway. He then turns to Shoto and slaps his arm, "Congratufuckinglations, you won't father another gremlin. Now let's go!" Bakugo grumbles under his breath, "You two keep hugging like that you might end up making a fucking sequel to your damn mistakes."
He then grabs the front of Todoroki's dress shirt and practically drags him to his car. Fuck's sake. The things he does for you.
Before he gets inside, he hears Yaoyorozu call after him. "Bakugo-san!" She doesn't know for what exactly, maybe for driving Shoto here? But she says, "Thank you." Feeling as if it was only right for her to say that to him.
Bakugo looks at her for a whole second and sighs. "Sure. Just go on and get the fuck out of here." With that, he settles back in his car and drives off without another glance at the girl who single handedly destroyed the woman he loves.
---
"Thank you, Bakugo." Shoto says as Bakugo pulls up in front of his house.
"I didn't do shit for you." He grumbles, keeping his glare out the windshield. Shoto nods and undoes his seatbelt. "I know. It won't diminish the fact that I owe you though."
"And I'm sorry, for the things I said to you before. I guess I was just intimidated because deep down I knew that you are doing a better job at caring for my own wife and son." At this Bakugo meets Todoroki's gaze, his grip on the steering wheel tightening.
"And if I don't win Y/n's heart back, if she falls in love again, I sincerely hope it's with you."
---
You sat in your old shared bed and took in every corner of it, reminiscing the early years of your married life made you smile sadly. With a resigned sigh, you head to the walk-in closet and pull out your suitcases.
The clothes pile in as you choose the ones you want to keep. Mostly ones that are given to you by Fuyumi and Rei. That doesn't stop you though from seeing the ones Shoto personally gifted you with making your chest pang with ache. And when your hand fumbles over that particular tyvek garment bag amongst the rack of dresses and gowns, you froze.
It's your wedding dress. The one you told Shoto you'd pass on to your daughter. The one Shoto said you'll two have once Yukio is five, which he is now. Shoto was so sure your next kid would be a girl. A shuddering sigh escapes your lips. If things didn't turn out the way that it did, could you be carrying your second child? Your daughter? The one who'd inherit all these dresses and jewelries Shoto showered you with?
You turn away from it brusquely and settle on the carpeted floor to start folding in the ones you decided to keep. Moments later, you see Shoto emerging in the doorway.
He walks to where you are and sits across from you. "Shouldn't I be the one packing?" He asks softly. You merely shake your head and keep your eyes on the clothes in front of you. "I changed my mind. I can't stay here."
Shoto nods quietly and then starts helping you. You watch him, seeing him folding the way you taught him to. Remembering it was one of the few disputes you two resolved as a married couple. You got sick of cleaning after the clothes he tried on and decided not to wear. So one day, you left it until he came home and told him, "I'll teach you how I want your clothes folded. This way you'll know it's not as easy as I make it look."
You remember the startled look on his face and the focus he had when you started teaching him how to do things your way. Since then, there weren't any shirts on the floor or any article of clothing out of place.
Why couldn't it have been that easy? You ask yourself as you continue looking at your husband sadly.
"She's not pregnant." Shoto mutters, breaking the silence. "And she's leaving. I don't know though if it's just out of town or out of the country. I didn't ask."
That stopped you from resuming what you were doing and had you holding your breath.
"And we've said our goodbyes, Y/n. We both regret what we did to you." Shoto looks up at you sincerely, holding his breath as he waits for you to respond.
You swallow hard and avert your gaze. "I can't forgive you both just like that. And our son blames himself for our fights. So when I tell him about our separation, how do you think he'll react?"
"Let me talk to him, Y/n." He murmurs. "I'll tell him the truth."
Your heart aches as you stare up at him in disbelief. "Shoto, he's just five."
"I'll tell him it's all my fault. That you tried everything to keep our family together but I have problems that I need to sort out which I can't do without hurting him and you." He says and you shake your head, wanting to refuse putting your son through this. He's too young.
"I mean it, Y/n." He reaches over to grab your hand. "I love you. And even if it meant letting you go and letting Yukio hate me because of the truth then so be it. You've protected him from me long enough. It's time for him to see that his dad isn't the perfect man he thinks he is."
"Let me apologize to him and tell him I'll be better." He raises your knuckle to his lips. "Just please, Y/n. Give me a chance to fix this."
You take a deep breath, willing the chaos in your mind to quiet down. It's like whatever path you take, you'll end up having your heart more broken than it already is. Either way, Yukio gets hurt. But maybe Shoto is right. Maybe you need to stop protecting him and let him take the fall for once, even if that means opening your son's eyes to the bitter truth.
Before you decided to have Yukio, you and Shoto did it together head on. Now it's only fitting that when you decide for his future, you and Shoto get to do it together too.
So you promise yourself that this will be the last time. The last time you'll allow yourself to have faith in your husband, in high hopes that what you're doing is what's best for Yukio.
With a deep staggering breath, you squeezed Shoto's hand and nodded, saying, "Okay, Sho.. I'm trusting you."
And you hope this time, he won't make you regret it.

GUYS OMG AN INTERESTING THEORY JUST CROSSED MY MIND. HEAR ME OUT:
(Note: sorry for the random disappearance, I promise to post more often, ALSO SPOILERS FROM CHAP. 79)
Okay okay so, after chapter 79 we can all confirm that Tsukasa of the Red House is the actual REAL one and the one of the school is a sort of FAKE one.
Very well.
We know that after more than 1 year and half Tsukasa (fake one) appeared out of nowhere, so when Amane was about 5.
(Chapter 79 reference)
You are might wondering: “yeah uh, WHAT’S THE POINT GIRL?”
Ahem, you remember the Star Festival Arc (chapter 37-38)? Amane and “Tsukasa” were CLEARLY older than the ones we saw in the Red House Arc, thus confirms that the fake Tsukasa was already there... and yeah, this was pretty obvious though.
(Chapter 78 & 38 references)
Red House Arc Star Festival Arc
So the fake one was there with Amane, spending the evening together until he left him for 3 hours... BUT he likely came back at some point, don’t you think?
AND SO, what if he came back exactly after Amane hanged the tags at the bamboo tree? Imagine it this way: Amane finished hanging the tag, staring at it with the hope of this coming true someday...
(Chapter 38 reference)
...BOOM IT DID.
Some might say: “The tree grants wishes of whoever hang the tags on it”
Guys, think about it a little more, the tree is a just a popular rumor that became an actual and truthful one in the Far Shore, thus in the supernatural world.
(Chapter 37 reference)
I doubt the tree itself really granted Amane’s wish back then... and this leads to the point of this whole post:
chapter 79 was an huge reveal that, indeed, fake Tsukasa may be an extension of the spirit of the Red House. And, of course, as its extension he reads the minds of people whom want their wish granted and grants them in return with a price (just like with Kunishige-kun).
(Chapter 79 reference)
We know, Amane’s wish changed thanks to Nene’s appearance, this way leading him to wish to see her again in a near future.
Tsukasa already knew that as he read his mind back then, and what happen when he does so?
YEP, HE GRANTS IT GUYS.
Just like in chapter 79 with Kunishige, I suppose “Tsukasa” did the exact thing with Amane: wouldn’t this be a good huge plottwist for the manga though? (Since we’ve already had a LOT of them, geez xd)
Amane’s deepest and dearest wish was not to be an astronaut anymore, frankly, he already gave up on that wish as soon as he saw Nene, as soon as he realized there was something way more important for him to wish for.
Tsukasa knew that.
He freaking knew.
And this hurts guys... I’m in tears.
Think of it this way: the reason why Amane killed “Tsukasa”, the reason why his fate changed again, the reason why there was the messy family death, wouldn’t it make sense if this all were by the power of that house? By the extension of that power, thus the fake Tsukasa?
Amane’s fate was already changed by real Tsukasa’s wish which the house GRANTED, it would make terribly sense if Amane’s fate was AGAIN changed with his wish GRANTED by the sort of extension of the house, fake Tsukasa!
The house is basically playing an HUGE role here, constantly changing Amane’s fate where, at the end, it ironically led to his initial destiny: dying.
Aside that, I think the house kind of teased the real Tsukasa, the price wasn’t only him disappearing, I think it had a way bigger thing all planned out, that’s why the Yugi twins backstory is so depressing and incredibly heartbreaking.
After all, if you think of it, Amane’s wish was granted by the time he met Nene when he was alive, so “Tsukasa” made his wish come true that very day.
7th July 1964 when he changed paths, thus wish.
18th July 1969 when his long awaited wish came true.
This means he granted Amane’s wish only 6 years later (supposing it went like that).
((I want to point out that time travels don’t happen randomly, there’s always a reason why they are happening. As when that door led Nene to past Amane’s class: it could’ve led her literally somewhere else but, surprise! Straight to past Amane’s class... coincidence? Or when she got hit by a bull, why making her being hit if it wasn’t for actual important plot reasons?))
(Chapter 22 reference)
And what happens next?
As sad as it sounds, the price of his wish was maybe his own life and not only his but of the whole family whom lived in that cursed house... hm, something here is missing, why taking everyone’s lives (including fake Tsukasa’s life itself) if the house could’ve just took only Amane’s life as a price?
Something else must have happened for sure and we have to wait a little more sadly. We still need to know a lot about this shady situation and the cursed Red House, BUT HOWEVER Amane’s initial wish at the Star Festival Arc might be a good clue which led to the dramatic events and Amane’s sudden change of fate (again), like it makes so much sense.
Or else why putting that panel if it wasn’t effective for the plot? Not only for romantic purposes but even for something way bigger...

summary : how do their eyes react when they see them and what do they see in yours?
irises mini-series - pt. 2, pt. 3.
vast, ruby, and volcanic are his irises.
often holding blankless eyes, as he minds his own business on wherever he went and whatever he does.
the loss of his own father figure, that one person he’d swore to make him proud, became like this. everything he had planned, was broken on that very day, he can recall as if it just happened yesterday, nightmares hunted him ever since then.
settling his eyes on your figure, those eyes glow every single time, bringing life to his.
a campfire in those eyes that burns brighter with your accompany, the heart that he shielded from everyone, was broken down by you, yourself.
seeing the innocence in them those small pupils of yours, warmed his, those barricades that he built, were broken down by you, again.
he didn’t mind nor did he try putting the bricks back up, for you unknowingly break them down as many times as you can.
welcoming it with open arms, he let them down and absorbed every single piece of you.
icy, sapphire, and atlantic are his irises.
one can never tell what does he actually feels, his voice alluring all of people in mondstadt, he isn’t the ‘the top candidate for grandson-in-law’ for nothing.
always founded sitting at the tavern, in the time where most people should be asleep, drinking wine. eccentric, way different from his stepbrother. never once speaking a word of his background nor past.
when he sees you with your friends, he founds himself sauntering his way to yours.
he enjoys making you flustered on the smooth-talking way of his, making you throw a couple of soft punches to his chest.
though you never saw the way his eyes gazed towards to yours of the way it sparkles, too occupied at your actions.
oh, if only you weren’t dense, he’d be willing to maybe open himself up more.
finding more pleasure in teasing you, implying that he may want to be more than friends.
logical, calculating, and oceanic are his irises.
life revolving around alchemy, looking for the truth and meaning of this world everyone live in for so long. exploring every scientific possibility, with the assistance of the two of his apprentices, timaeus and sucrose.
often in the snowy mountains of dragonspine, rarely had he talked to people as he is too invested on his experiments. if there was a topic that didn’t catch his eyes, he’ll become cold.
when his green-haired assistant brings you in, he founds you…endearing, in a strange way that he couldn’t put a word off.
the blonde finds his way of often asking for your help, finding you a very fascinating person to be with.
his younger sister, klee, who had a habit of causing trouble every now and then, he would scold her for being reckless. and there was you, comforting her with gentle eyes that affects something in him.
dozens of many questions flash through his mind, what are these feelings is he experiencing?
finding it strange, he sought more for it, maybe with your help, he can puzzle these together. he’ll also sketch lots of images of you.

Spoilers for the pt 2 of the windblume quest
About the whole thing with Kaeya saying mi muhe ye (I'll triumphant over you) to Venti I don't think meant it as a threat like most people has theorized. I'm not sure of it's just me simping for Kaeya but I think he really cares about Mondstant (I keep calling it Mondo for some reason lol) or at least he cares about what his adopted father has done to the country(?) and he cares about his brother Diluc.
He obviously knows Venti is Barbatos, like c'mon he came from that old place that starts with a K and is very hard to pronounce and spell, so I think he knows that someone is possibly going to attack Venti (base from the trailer) and that's his way of trying to warn him. I know he could've worded it better but there were no other words lmaooo I looked at this reddit post of translation of hilichurlian from CN and there's really nothing that can be used to give a warning to someone as they're all about victory, dominating over someone, etc. etc.
I'm sorry if that was long and full of miny tangents it's just that I haven't seen anyone with the same outlook as me in this topic lol. Overall what I learned is that if I'm as invested in my class as I am in genshin I could've written so many great essays💜💜💜
Is it alright if you send me the link anon? I havent been scrolling on reddit lately so i already knew i’ve missed lots of good stuffs in the official subreddit especially those theories ughh
Might as well start digging up there and search for good theories lying in there

If you want a visual of what their jersey might look like, here’s the art from @simplypotz
Before the game
Just you casually asking “Hey, do you have an extra jersey?”
Him seriously wondering why you’re asking that. “I do, why?”
You hesitate to say it cause it seems a little silly but end up telling him while NOT looking at him. “I was thinking of wearing it to your next game,”
He stops what he’s doing and is picturing the moment in his mind.
You all nice and charming in his number 1 shirt with “Zhongli” written on the back, and it’ll just be YOU wearing it so it’ll stand out so much.
Clears his throat to hide that he’s flustered and hands you his extra jersey without saying a word.

summary: zhongli, xiao, albedo and childe are in love with you, even if you don’t feel the same.
notes: angst, headcanons, .7k words
Zhongli
This is just another burden for him to bear.
You are the enduring beauty of humanity. When Zhongli sees you, he thinks this is what it has all been for: the millennia of loss, of fallen friends and foes alike, the never ending struggle. When he sees your bright smile as you wander the peaceful land he wrought with his own hands, perhaps it has all been worth it after all.
He is well acquainted with desire after all these years, but it is still an unexpected flower that blooms in your presence. You listen to him attentively, accompany him as he walks around Liyue, sigh as you bring out your wallet when he’s short on Mora.
If he were to kiss you, how would you react? If he were to stroke your cheek, pull you into his arms, tell you that he loves you… Zhongli understands that this is a futile train of thought. There is no room in your life for him beyond your current relationship.
He is a relic of the past. Zhongli has seen too much, lived for too long: the only thing he can hope for is that you will keep him alive in your memories.
