       N - No, no! It wasn’t on purpose! Only he had left his dry cleaning in the living from the previous evening and thought it easier to change there than hauling all of it to the bedroom. He HAD been in the privacy of his own home, hadn’t he?! For what reason would he need to worry about being seen when curtains were drawn and no one else was there?! “Lady Aozaki, you misunderstand! I did not intentionally have you  — This isn’t what it looks like!” For all her dramatics, the stand-in Lord felt guilty. Though he believed he was not at fault, he still was a gentleman! Wriggling and panicking to pull up his trousers, he finally managed to dress himself fully. “If you so much as think that this is an attempt at something else, you are mistaken.” 

       “OH, I KNOW. I was just pulling your leg,” she chuckles, wiping away the tears that were a part of her acting handiwork. A masterful actress she is, indeed! “My fault for coming over without letting you know in advance; I meant to text you, but I picked up some Japanese food along the way and didn’t want the packed ramen to get cold. You know the economy these days...” A sigh; she walks right in, places the plastic bag of bought food onto the table and helps clean up the dry cleaning. “Styrofoam doesn’t keep food warm as long as it used to.”

metcnoia​:

       She wasn’t due to arrive to his apartment for a long while, and given the hour, he thought he had time. Though once the door flew open to Touko’s grand entrance, all he could do was stand there with his pants in a heap around his ankles, fumbling madly to finish dressing. “YOUR EYES? If you had knocked beforehand, you fool, this could have been prevented!”

       HOW HORRIBLY INCONSIDERATE of him to even imply that this was her fault....! What a blow to a poor maiden’s heart! What sort of gentleman would sully a woman’s innocence and then blame it on her? The audacity! Mock sobs escape her lips, frame embracing his door; she is the very picture of melodramatic distress. “The sight that you’ve treated me to....how could you? Oh, how could you?!” she mock wails. “My heart belongs to one, and one only!”

[ningyoshi]

metcnoia​:

       “Have you no decency?! Or any awareness to knocking before entering a room?”

                                                        Specifically, his room.

       A MOMENT OF SPEECHLESSNESS, and then.....the inevitable happens!

       “My eyes! Oh dear Lord, my EYES!!!”

[ningyoshi]

oh my god hi i’m so sorry this is so belated

akakaosu​:

“ maybe it was that damned fool’s ‘hope’ rubbing off on me, but his whole idea of romance was this overly sappy, sickeningly sweet display of affection. not towards me - i’d sooner choke on my own vomit - but you raise an interesting counter-argument. consider me impressed. ”

“ heh. who’s to say blood, murder and money can’t be romantic? fuck whoever said that. if i’m ever going to be tied down, i want my lover to kick my door down and yell… ”

“ HEY, BITCH, LET’S DO CRIME TOGETHER. ”

so, in summary, you’re agreeing with touko.

and that’s a terrifying concept.

        “OH MY GOODNESS, your fool’s a puppy. That’s so sweet, oh my goodness....I’ve always wanted something like that,, that’s so sweet....but you know, we can’t always have what we want, so we settle for second best and make it the best, yes? It’s capital.” And she grins. “Impressive, yes? It’s amazing. There’s the thrill. I want my lover to tell me that we can do the impossible. I want to cry and bleed when we do it while he’s towering tall and suited up. Stuff like that.”

[ningyoshi]

FUCK I SUDDENLY HAVE SO MUCH FEELS FOR GRAIL!TOUKO

[ningyoshi]

akakaosu​:

these people and their romantic relationships, their strong dynamics, their chemistry that dabbles between friendship and romance…

“ gross. ”

you can feel the love in the air and it’s nowhere near february.

       “DID YOU KNOW that the best of relationships, the best of dynamics, the best of chemistry and the strongest romance usually involve money, blood and murder? Of course it’s gross. It’s the only thing that makes me shiver. I like them misguidedly philosophical and dirt old. Sue me.”

       One can also feel this young lady’s priorities skewing all over the place.

[ningyoshi]

Ship Bias

*gross sobbing noises*

1) Touko / Araya 

To elaborate, their dynamic is by far the strongest I’ve ever seen in the entire franchise, solely because they’re just so direct in their goals and their connection with each other. There’s this untold story between them that just adds to their mystery a whole lot, especially when Touko could have once become like Araya had she not reached the epiphany that chasing after the Root was completely and utterly useless, and the fact that such a severe, highly dreaded character like Araya respected and admired Touko at her best of days says a lot about the influence and impact that they’ve brought to the table and had each other swallow, in a sense...! Above all, I love this ship so much (it’s my top if you can’t tell I’m so sorry you can sense my thirst from a mile away) because it’s like....extremely complicated in a beautiful way. 

2) Touko / Cornelius Alba

A lot of people tend to underestimate Cornelius because of his horrible first impression in the KnK novels/movies, but he’s actually a hell of a lot better mage than Touko -- until petty jealousy got into the way, that is. Reading Nasu’s interview notes somehow implies that Cornelius’s jealousy is like....very much kind of Touko’s fault for not acknowledging him (but he’s so annoying I mean....I don’t blame her in the slightest haha), but had they started off at a better footing, there could very well be a great mutual respect with each other? He admired her even more than Araya did in a more obsessive and manic sense, so it was kind of tragic....

3) Touko / Millieune Carillon

ah yes, the gold-digger ship

I love this ship more than I love my most expensive owned item. There was a time when I was like ‘Touko’s never going to be a mistress!’ but she did. She actually did. She swooped right in with her fur shawls and her long hair and the best she’s ever looked in her entire life, and she outright slept with the Head of Sealing Designations. It’s amazing. I bet he’s besotted. Even more scorned when she left him. She left such an impact and *chef kiss*....!

4) Touko / Daisuke Akimi

I really was rooting for this ship in the novels, especially when Detective Akimi really was trying his best to land a date with her; he did, but she found him dull :’c Possibly, it’s because she’s trying to not develop attachments, and possibly it’s because they’re in two different worlds? After all, a mage and a human can’t really have the happiest of relationships; there’s bound to be some kind of tragedy, and Daisuke’s just so nice....ow my heart....!

5) Touko / happiness and a proper relationship

please touko stop finding meaning in complicated relationships....stop going after men who just want to um....murder you and the ones you love.....

akakaosu​:

“ FUCK. ”

you curse loudly regardless of any children nearby. god damn it. fucking shopkeepers. you’re a fugitive. where the hell are you going to that amount? but… this is a matter of pride. a matter of life or death. you will not admit defeat. not when it comes to makoto naegi.

… it is no wonder then that, in such moments like this, your intelligence decides to grow legs of its own and barrel out of the nearest window at terminal velocity.

“ i know you’re playing me, but screw it. put it on my tab. ”

       “MANY THANKS FOR YOUR kind patronage! We hope to see you again!”

       We, as if she belongs to some kind of legion of shopkeepers. The guide is neatly wrapped and placed into the girl’s hands, and with a bright, chipper smile, she offers a lovely hint about where Naegi Makoto’s elusive porn stash could be; everything’s within the book, especially how he’s going to be like in H-scenes!

       With a whisper, she speaks; hush, hush! “It’s at page 410, section 3!”

asagamifujiino​:

“If I did not know you would just transfer into a new body and keep doing this, You wouldn’t be able to talk right now due to severed larynx.” Great, now she was doing uwu speak. Shiki had the patience of a goddamn saint to deal with this for longer than her.

orig touko dies! oh no! what does she-

-oh

oh no

she’s writing something on the ground with her blood

                     “ .......UWU.............OTL.............”

[ningyoshi]

akakaosu​:

“ he’s an ordinary guy. he has to have some kind of porn stash somewhere, right? ”

no stone will go unturned in chaldea until you find makoto naegi’s porn stash.

       “Of course he does. What kind of guy DOESN’T have a porn stash? But you’ll have to buy my ‘NAEGI MAKOTO ROUTE GUIDE’ for a neat sum of 18,900.99 Quartz to find out exactly where it is~!”
