Thank you everyone for your comments! We return to our regular non holiday programming. First fics of 2021! 4 Intallments!
I know no one was asking, but one of my biggest inspirations for this story is One Piece (Maybe you could tell because theres a million installments). The sheer love and care put into the world and the characters is truly a sight to behold. So naturally I wanted to make a world with a similar amount of care and effort. So what better way to do that than to make backstories for individual characters?
Here are a few previews of upcoming backstories.
Fukuoka Sunset (Oya Shizuka): Shizuka teaches her lifelong bullies what it means to fuck with a Yakuza.
White (Kashiwagi Yuki): Isn't it weird that the color black is synonymous with death when hospice walls are bright white?
Manic (Matsui Rena): When Queen Gekikara shows herself in the mirror, Rena can't help but laugh. But when she hears her own laughter come out of her mouth, she hears her mother's laughter in her head.
So for those looking for more angst outta me... oh boy. It's coming.
Backstories are reserved for the more standout characters. Most of these students lived normal lives before enrolling after all.
I hope you guys enjoy this! Comments and Thank you's are greatly appreciated! Don't be shy!
41. The Laughing Edge (YuuNa)
"Yuuchan? Are you home?" Nana set her portfolio bag down by the door as she shut it. She turned the corner to enter their bedroom only to be stopped at the end of a blade.
"One step closer, and I send you straight to the afterlife."
Yuiri walked forward with the business end of a katana aimed right at Nana's throat. She was completely decked out in samurai's armor already soaked in tides of crimson. Her hair flowed behind her like a billow of smoke.
Nana put her hands up and backed herself into a wall, "Whoa! Yuuchan! The hell has gotten into you?!"
"Silence, intruder!" She screamed, as she lowered her sword. Yuiri took a few steps forward and stood face to face with a scared Naachan, staring her down for a moment. The samurai planted a kiss upon her girlfriend's lips before cracking up in laughter, "Man! You should've seen the look on your face! You're cute when you're scared Naachan!"
Nana slid down the wall and let the breath she was holding finally escape, "Yuuchan, you can't be making jokes like that!"
"I'm sorry Naachan, I got a lead role in the next theater play and I wanted to see if I was convincing." Yuiri rubbed the back of her neck before sheathing the prop sword.
It was interesting to see Yuiri break character, watching a raging demon transition into her sweet significant other.
"Well, you were super convincing…" Nana smiled as she could never stay mad at her Yuuchan for long.
The theater girl helped her girlfriend up before giving an apology kiss, "Now that you're here, can you help me change out of this costume?"
Of course Nana agreed and the two headed off into their bedroom.
"If you kept the act up for another minute, I'd need a change of clothes too…"
42. Pointless Challenge (MogiOn)
"Mion! NO! Put that down!"
"Look Mogi, I got the technique down I promise! I got it this time!"
Mion self imposed the challenge of being able to drink an entire gallon of milk in under 5 minutes. For what reason? Who knows. What would she even accomplish with this ability? Mogi was begging her not to attempt this stunt twice.
"After what happened last time?" Mogi snatched the Milk gallon and stuffed it into the fridge, "the time you vomited freaking everywhere?"
"Give me some credit here, I totally made it to the bathroom."
"You made it to the bathroom and MISSED THE TOILET!" The taller girl cried out, "I AM NOT CLEANING UP MION PUKE TWICE!"
43. Lapse (SakuRuppi)
Sakura hadn't seen nor heard from her girlfriend in days. Usually any other relationship would indicate this as a sign of unhealthiness, but they were different. Haruka dedicated herself to her assignments. She never procrastinated. If there was something that needed to be done, she'd get to work in an instant. Of course Sakura would get fair warning beforehand.
It was always how she worked. Sakura couldn't help but laugh to herself.
Hehehe, Haruppi is such a nerd. Always burying her face in her books… Ugh, who am I kidding. I skip class to play videogames. I'm just a different breed of nerd.Sakura continued to focus on her games as she had been for the past few days. Either that or destroying her roommate Annin at said games.
In the middle of her gaming session, she heard the chime of a text notification from her phone.
It was from Haruppi. Sakura immediately knew that she was done with her assignments. In a blink, she promptly freshened up and bolted towards her girlfriend's dorm.
---
The sound of a violin was playing from Haruppi's dorm. Sakura was curious what that was all about. She didn't have any music classes.
Sakura opened the door, and stepped inside. Haruka was proudly looking at all her finished work. Neatly stacked paperwork for her art history class, a self portrait illustration for her drawing class, and a detailed painting of the view outside her window. Curiously, there was a girl seated in the center of the room playing violin.
Haruka rushed in for a hug as soon as Sakura made her few steps inside.
"Finally done with everything!" Haruka squeezed tightly, "we can finally spend time together!"
"Yeah! Of course!" Sakura stepped to the side after Haruka released the embrace, "who's the girl playing violin?"
"Oh, that's Tani Marika. I paid her to play violin for me as I did my work." The girl weakly waved before continuing to play, "let's grab something to eat. I haven't eaten in days!"
Sakura chuckled at Haruka's joking disclosure, until she noticed the bags under her eyes. Not to mention her stare that blankly gazed one thousand yards past her.
"Oh shit, you're not lying are you?"
No response from Haruka. She only shook her head.
"Don't move. I'll just get something delivered here! Pizza or ramen? Ah fuck it, I'll just get both!"
"Uh… can you make an order for me too? I haven't eaten in days either." Marika softly spoke. Shyly raising her hand with her violin bow.
"HARUPPI! YOU DIDN'T FEED HER?!"
Haruka's eyes widened, "OH CRAP! I WAS SO ABSORBED BY MY WORK IT TOTALLY SLIPPED MY MIND!"
Sakura dialed two restaurants and made two orders for three. Haruka frantically grabbed her wallet and doubled Marika's pay. Sakura even ran into the kitchen and cooked a basic curry for them. Not that she was an amazing cook or anything, but who can afford to be picky at a time like this?
