I am a starving woman in need of more watatsuki hcs(ESPCIALLY YORIHIME) so would you please kindly share more of your yorihime hcs 🥺🙏
Her ability is literally just weaponized Shinto panethon Autism
Very protective of her rabbits and has no issue speaking to them like they're on her level, mostly because being too harsh on them makes it harder for her to train them
While she absorbs knowledge well, she's very forgetful even of things she cares about, so she's constantly rereading books in hopes of remembering it all
Relating to #3, she depends on Toyohime to fill gaps in her knowledge, not knowing that Toyohime sometimes lies to her about some events to keep her from worrying too much or overexplaining herself to a suspicious degree.
Can be dependent on others for a lot of things — #4, summoning gods for combat, etc. making her ever so slightly paranoid that she'll be tossed aside eventually, a fear that's considerably worsened after Eirin left. It doesn't help that Toyohime's becoming more and more like Eirin as time goes by, making Yorihime afraid that she, too, will leave (she says something to this effect in CiLR ch.3 actually). Training the rabbits helps with this, because it's a role she knows nobody else wants to fill.
The aforementioned dissociative issues — though she doesn't know they're dissociative nor wants to acknowledge that they're issues. Having issues would mean she's not working hard enough, and not working hard enough would mean she's not enough.
The strictest aspects of her are her trying to be like Eirin (someone who she looks up to a lot), but she remains unaware of how damaging Eirin's training was to her — a "that's normal, no?" type scenario where someone needs to sit her down and say that having a thousand-yard stare at age 7 is in fact not normal. (This one is based on a gag in Inaba of the Moon/Earth)
Terrible at self-care due to feeling like she has to earn her worth (being literally named after your job would do that to anyone). Will work for entire weeks or even years without a lick of sleep or a bite of food. Due to the moon's nature, this doesn't cause any physical issues, but Toyohime often has to pull her away from work to get her to chill a little.
Related to #7, she doesn't remember being a child. Toyohime does, but when the two reminisce on something together, Yorihime's always the one taking a pragmatic and dry approach to what should be a sentimental thing. Maybe it's the disconnect from it all.
Uses her book-laptop to recordkeep and communicate with the capital when she's on duty. She also doodles in there when bored, but doesn't show it to people because it would break the image of the Serious One.
Only transformed into a wani once, and that was after being stressed out so badly she couldn't keep up looking humanoid anymore. Proceeded to instantly transform back into a humanoid form the second she could because it was "unsightly".
Feels guilty over Reisen's perceived death of Rabbit Stew because Reisen was yet another one of the responsibilities Toyohime delegated to her. She doesn't want to repeat the "mistake" with Rei'sen, so she trains her twice as hard as all the other bunnies.
Finds Reimu very interesting and cool and pretty and if Yorihime was a guy she'd totally kiss her but she's not so it's impossible. Totally. Yes, she is deep enough in the closet she might as well be in Narnia, why do you ask?
Since she analyzes social interactions in terms of math in CiLR, I like to think that she's a little socially aloof. Probably spent a lot of time trying to copy Toyohime's philosophical monologues just in case an earthling shows up and she has to fight them while looking awesome.
Happiest while doing something routine, takes comfort in rigid patterns and hates abrupt change.
Her philosophy for problem-solving is "do the same thing but better". This is great for fights and danmaku battles, not for the creeping feelings of anxiety when Toyohime's being a little too distant.
Is on extremely good terms with all of the amatsukami of the Lunar Capital, since she takes care to summon them with the proper rites and doesn't simultaneously summon gods that have interpersonal conflicts with one another.
Probably knows who the Hakurei god is, but doesn't tell Reimu out of principle. After all, a shrine maiden must put in the work to connect with their god. Having someone else intrude is just so improper. Reimu must study harder, you know. Like she did.
When she was born, Toyohime was somewhere in her early teens (or whatever that looks like to a Lunarian), so she got doted on a lot by her. Eirin not so much. Moon-era Eirin never seemed to have much affection to anyone at all.
Related; whenever she wanted to ask Toyohime something when they were kids she'd walk up to her like this and stare until Toyohime asked what she wanted
