This Is So Dumb But I Couldn’t Stop Thinking Abt It

rip to the person i was before the leaks

Meh im always too late for any hype TwT

They give me similar vibes

PLEASSEE I NEED MORE LOVE TRIANGLE OF YORIICHI X READER X MICHIKATSU (KOKUSHIBO) I’VE SEEN A FEW LIKE LITTLE  😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

I find myself thinking about Kokushibo and his family a lot. His wife and children, I mean.

Him abandoning them was wrong, but at the same time, I can't entirely blame him. It was clearly an arranged marriage and one that he wasn't happy in. Even though he described it as "peaceful", he also followed that up with "boring." For someone like Kokushibo, who's entire passion is swordsmanship and improving himself, I can see how that would ultimately lead to a feeling of discontent and listlessness.

However; my sympathy also extends naturally to his wife and children. Just like him, they were forced into a situation they also had little choice in. Kokushibo's wife was arranged to him, just as he was to her. The children didn't ask to be born. In the panel depicting Kokushibo leaving, it's easy to tell that they did love him. His wife looks devastated while his eldest tries to run after him, reaching out to grab his leg or his hand to keep him from leaving.

I see many discussions surrounding Kokushibo and his feelings towards his family, but ultimately I feel the situation is more complicated than one or the other. I don't think he hated them, nor do I think he truly loved them. He felt shackled, perhaps even resentful of his circumstances, but he did ultimately express regret at having abandoned them.

Kokushibo likely had more complicated feelings, perhaps more than he understood or was willing to admit. Having two children with a woman, one who was visibly devastated by his departure, and having his eldest child try to stop him from leaving seems to me like a pretty good indicator that, while he was with them, Kokushibo was a fairly good husband and father.

They loved him. I think Kokushibo had at least some fondness for them, too. Not enough to stay, not enough to consider his wife his "true love", but enough to treat them kindly while he was with them and to feel regret for his actions upon his death.

I do find myself wondering how his wife and children coped after his death. Financially they were probably fine, but emotionally is another thing. His wife probably had to live with the knowledge that the man she loved, or at least tried to love, didn't return the feelings. At least, not enough to prevent the final outcome.

His eldest would grow up with bittersweet memories and confused feelings. He would remember the excitement he'd felt when he was small and his father came back from his most recent mission, or the memories of Kokushibo holding him or promising to teach him how to wield a sword, all of that muddied by the pain and resentment of being left behind, of hearing his mother crying in despair.

His youngest would forever have a void in his heart. Never having had memories of his father, but longing to have known him and subsequently feeling guilty for longing for the man who abandoned them. Did they ever ask their mother or elder brother, or were they too scared to prod at old wounds?

Did they ever fully pick up the pieces? Did Kokushibo ever think of them, as a Slayer or as a Demon? I suppose we'll never know.

requesting for single dad hcs?? maybe with diluc, zhongli or childe??

fluff, crack

—i assume that the reader is like their significant other right nonnie? so yep this is not child!reader okay

—also, side note that their child is gonna be a daughter, it’s not mentioned if she’s biological or not.

CHILDE

Spoils his kid so much that the kid is probably pretty haughty and confident sometimes, much like her father. Also, where did those punches and kicks come from? Did she learn it from her father too? Either way, she is pretty tough and strong for a kid.

He is quite annoying, honestly, but adorable at the same time.

He’d proudly boast about his daughter very much to the point that his subordinates would be so used and numb to all of it.

“As expected, sir Harbinger,” “She is truly your daughter, my lord,” will be their automatic responses, echoing each other with praises for the child. In all honesty though, most of them are rather merely showing their loyalty and fear to the Harbinger. Nonetheless, it would not be a lie to say that his daughter really is almost, if not as, skilled as her father.

It would actually not be a surprise if she would act spoiled and confident, as she is respected all the same. And as much as CHILDE would hate to expose her to the Fatui, it is not possible as she refuses to be left at CHILDE’s own home back at Snezhnaya and would like to travel with her father a couple of times.

Although he does try to hide her a couple of times too, and only a few Fatui Harbingers actually know he has a daughter. It would be dangerous, after all. So probably only a few of his trusted subordinates would know as he has to have someone protect his daughter when he is not there. He probably even assigned someone—one of his Fatui subordinates—to babysit her especially in the first few years.

His daughter is also the only one he lets defeat him. He’d give up easily if it meant he could see his daughter smile in victory. And besides, it’s not like it’s his loss, he wins the moment she smiles, even if she does try to brag to everybody that she just won against him.

You? Well when you come in the picture, the two; father and daughter would probably compete against each other for your attention, I swear. Caught you kissing CHILDE on the cheeks? Ah! You should give her too! On both her cheeks! Saying “I love you” to her father? Tell her you love her more!

Now, he finds it difficult to compete with his daughter for you, but at least you two were getting along, and that’s all that matters. (Admittedly though, it hurts his pride whenever he sees his daughter win when it comes to you, but well he loves both of you)

DILUC

Is very vERY protective of his daughter. Would probably never let her join him at his work nor at his batman duties and insist she stays at home.

As she is the only child, the kid often gets lonely… but at least there are maids and her father’s subordinates around the mansion, and the place is quite big so she gets to play a lot!

Although it would not be a surprise if she suddenly becomes quite rebellious sometimes. She would sneak out once or twice a month to capture more crystalflies or just look around the area to explore. Spoiler: she never gets caught. Plus, the butler is totally on her side.

DILUC is also on the quieter side, so the child may have gotten that kind of personality as well, which meant that she probably did not mind her father being too quiet… but she still feels neglected whenever she tries to bond or talk with her father and he does not respond back with the same energy as her or the others who will do that for her.

As she is quite isolated inside the mansion and probably does not have any other kids besides her, she probably does not know what it means to have another parent as DILUC was the only one she has. The moment she does learn about this, however, she will be questioning her father about this and the man would have a hard time trying to explain to her that it will just be them this time.

Maybe because of this she became quite curious of the outside world even more. And maybe if you passed by the Dawn Winery just because it was a part of your path home and accidentally met his daughter all alone while she was in one of her rendezvous, she immediately took interest in you. It would no be long until she takes your time with all her questions about the outside world and soon inviting you to have dinner with her back at her house.

And let’s just say that it was how DILUC met you—and of course, how his daughter was reprianded because of this.

ZHONGLI

Is quite the doting father. Actually, not too lenient, not too strict, but is quite protective—not too much as well. He also does know how to communicate well, thus it became something that the child also had gotten used to.

His daughter is well spoken. Very, actually, that you yourself will be surprised and in awe that a child would be more well spoken than any children you know.

She is very respectful too, probably the type to intimidate someone with her words even if all she said were facts and lessons that her father used to tell her.

In the early years, he thought he would need a babysitter for her, but as he took notice, his daughter was very independent and behaved. To the point that he thought he could leave her for the meantime while he is working.

As a single father, he does have repercussions and hardships, as this is something he did not particularly have experience with. He is someone who relied on his experiences, as he had many, and observations.

He would probably read a lot of books about parenting, especially in the early years, but I swear he would still have those books as his daughter grows—teens are quite hard to raise, after all. They are prone to rebellious phases and acts, to which he could somehow see in his daughter, but he does know a lot about his daughter, and he’d know how to react with those phases, if she ever has one.

When it comes to you, it pleases him to know that his daughter was working it out with you as soon as she learns he wanted to date you. Actually, his daughter might even teach him how to court you because “Father is very dense sometimes,” “You should pay attention to how you treat them compared to others. They would not be feeling they are special if you treat them the same as you treat others, father.”

Sometimes, ZHONGLI does wonder how old his daughter’s soul is.

But anyway, she was making good points and in the end, it was thanks to his daughter that he got to know a few things he never thought about.

Female darling is just as strong as him

I love this scene

hi!

for your 100 followers event, can i get a mitsuri!reader x childe?

a/n: of course! this was really interesting to do

MITSURI!READER X CHILDE

100 FOLLOWERS EVENT LINK

— ooooh boy, the first time you had landed your eyes on him you were smitten, really. his eyes were gorgeous, stunning, he was built too! you were, as always, complimenting him in your head.

when you both get together, however, you both will shower each other in affection. words of professing his love and vice versa bounces of the walls, it almost sounds like a pissing contest, really.

he loves your kindness and how easily you get flustered. this leads him to tease you if he can. sometimes, he'll offer to pay for your food, due to the ridiculous amounts of food you can consume in one sitting.

he fell even more in love with you in battle. the way your body moves to adjust to your opponents' attacks makes you even more unpredictable and powerful, and he admires the way you take things seriously. also, he thinks your sword is stunning. (he cut himself while using it.) cue him begging you to spar every week.

you always ask him to marry you if he can, and trust me, he's already planning the wedding. he also worries for you due to his line of work, but you have to reassure him you can handle yourself. (although, "handling yourself" is an understatement to what you can actually do.)

if you have a breathing technique similar to Mitsuri, he will be shocked, yet it further spurs him on. your breathing style compliments his vision, and he will always praise you-- as you did him.

overall, a pretty wholesome relationship! but if you fight together, there is no escape, you both are death personified.
