Of course, my dear! Thank you so much for the ask and I hope you’ll enjoy the headcanons, however small!!
Despite being quite young, I think Andy has actually had a lot of romantic relationships. He’s good looking and comes across as very charming. Where he’s really extroverted and unafraid to flirt, it’s easy for him to make connections. He had his first relationship back in elementary school, where he dated someone for a whole two weeks, and he’s been going since then. However, with Andy, almost all of his relationships tend to be short-lived. He’s a lot as a romantic partner and he can easily wear out the person he’s dating. On top of that, he’s kind of flighty and he’s a massive flirt so it’s often that his relationships never make it past the two-month mark without him or his partner just losing interest.
When it comes to losing interest and breaking up with someone though…that’s something Andy really, really, REALLY is not good at. He hates to think about hurting someone’s feelings. Even if he’s no longer interested in dating them, he still thinks the person he was dating isn’t a horrible person or anything. He just doesn’t want to date them or really be around them too much for a little bit. So, he’s pretty prone to just up and ghosting to end a relationship instead of having the conversation. When he does have the conversation, which has happened a time or two, he texts the break-up. However, when his partner breaks up with him in person, Andy doesn’t really handle it well, even if he doesn’t want the relationship himself anymore. He either pretends he doesn’t care at all about the person or he gets clingy, pouty, and demanding of his now ex’s continued attention.
Andy is for sure the type of romantic partner to pop the ‘I love you’ out super early. Like, within the first month early. He loves the idea of love and tends to have really over-the-top emotions as is, something made even more pronounced with all the chemical reactions that come with new romances. He will take any and every opportunity, after that first time, to repeat those words to his partner.
While he devotes most of his spare time to his partner while in a relationship, his work and his comrades will always come first to him. He’s very proud of his place within Scepter 4 and the bonds he has with the others are probably the single-most important thing to him.
Andy really likes it when his partner takes over planning dates. It’s actually one of the sexiest things they can do in Andy’s mind – his partner taking control and taking something off his shoulders? So hot.
Hello! I heard that Andy Domyouji actually has a Dad who used to be the old Scepter 4 un Habari's time and I wanted to know of what you thought about what kind of person his Dad was? 🤔💭
What an interesting ask anon!
We have so little contents about old Scepter 4, but one thing we all know is old Scepter 4 is way, waayy, waaaaaaayyyyyyyy bloodier than current Scepter 4. Can’t blame them tho, with Purgatory being absolute walking human bombs who wreck everything that came to their paths. So, save to say that almost all old Scepter 4 members ever killed/decapitated someone(Purgatory) at least once. I don’t know if it’s my biased ‘Our Scepter 4 are all my precious babies’ feeling, but I can’t imagine our Scepter 4 members kill someone (except Munakata to Mikoto, of course). To imagine puppy Hidaka, calm Akiyama, or cheerful Domyouji decapitate someone is quite bizarre for me, although I indeed watched Side Blue movie when Hidaka, Domyouji, and all alphabet squad hunted for Kusuhara’s murderer.
(If that’s their default mode for someone who kill one of their own, lucky them for having less murderous Red clan to control. Vice versa for Homra a.k.a current Red clan.)
So the first thing came to my mind after reading you question is “Our bright Domyouji but in a clan that require you to decapitate someone on daily basis”. But of course when I think about it again, my imagination of him is not that simple. It’s quite fun to imagine how Domyouji’s dad personality, and I agree with this Ridia’s post although I have some headcanons on my own.
Before we dive to headcanon land, let’s we look at some canon information crumbs about Domyouji’s dad :
Canon content 1
His father was a member of the previous Scepter 4, and entrusted 17-year-old Domyoji to the new Scepter 4. His father, who used to work on the previous “Blue King” Habari, is watching from afar with a certain gaze on Munakata, the new “King of Blue”.
Domyouji Andy Profile
I am not sure about the “entrusted” statement here. Did Domyouji’s dad introduce Andy to current Scepter 4? Or did he just support his son’s decision? Because we know that following Munakata Reisi is Andy’s own decision.
K : Days of Blue chapter 8
Then, about the phrase “is watching from afar with a certain gaze on Munakata” remind me of Zenjou’s behavior toward Munakata and current Scepter 4. So save to say that although maybe Domyouji’s dad in his youth is as boisterous our Andy, after Kagutsu incident he’s more settled down and prefer to watch from afar instead of jumping to front line.
(I think all old Scepter 4 members except Minato twin are like that, they’re just.... tired of fighting, especially after their King’s death. Oh my poor old Blue clan T_T)
Canon content 2
“Did you use it, too, Fushimi-san? Luckily, I myself inadvertently avoided it, my use of PDA being limited at the time due to how strict my family is and all that.”
“Having grown up in such a strict house, how come you turned out like that…?” Benzai stared at Doumyouji with utter perplexity written all over his face.
K ~ Seven Stories ~ Piece 13: Fushimi Saruhiko
From the content we know that :
- Domyouji’s family is strict
- Still not strict enough to mold Domyouji into more usual “calm stern dedicated Dojo heir” type.
- Domyouji’s dad didn’t tell Andy about King’s world, because Andy used “inadvertently” meaning he was clueless about true nature of Jungle. Domyouji’s dad should know about Jungle because old Scepter 4 is still active (without Habari) when Jungle started to operate.
Kingdom of Red Chapter 6
-Probably he restricted Andy’s phone with ulterior motive to protect Andy from Jungle.
Canon content 3
Having been born as the heir to the “Kouei style fencing dojo”, he displayed a prodigious talent in swordsmanship since childhood. As his father, who was also his master, put it once before, “It’s not like you altogether ignore swordsmanship learned by training, it’s just that your natural talent takes over way too much from the start. If you were weak because of that, I would forcefully correct it, but in such a talent lies the possibility that you can understand and master the way of sword better than I. That’s why you can remain the way you are.”
It was up to a debate whether or not Doumyouji understood the advice his father had given him the way it was meant, but starting that time, his tendency to do as he pleased became even more prominent, including but not limited to sword practice.
Case Files of Blue, chapter 1
From the content we know that :
- Domyouji’s dad is quite lenient to Andy because of Andy’s talent.
- Regarding raw talent, Andy is better than his dad.
- He would forcefully correct Andy’s behavior if that can make his son weak. So he wants Andy to be strong.
- So Andy’s tendencies to do as he pleased is partly his fault XD
Lastly,
Canon content 4
I can’t find the primary source, but wiki says that Andy’s mom is French. So he married foreign person despite the fact that he’s an owner (or maybe an heir) of traditional Japanese dojo. And Domyouji’s mom love Domyouji’s enough to leave her country and stay in Japan at least from Andy’s birth till he entered Scepter 4. I don’t know about you, but an ordinary Asian like me commonly doesn’t know about France’s legal drinking age without research (Andy hate research), so I assume that his mom told him about that.
Also apparently Domyouji’s heritage is well-know to other Scepter 4 members, makes me wonder if alphabet squad ever met Domyouji’s family or dad before. It’s possible that Domyouji is just so open about his family matter (he’s certainly a blabbermouth, like when he told everyone about Kamo’s daughter issue).
Bonus
The names are Azuma Sohei, Bado Ryoichiro, Chidjiiwa Gaku, Daiba Sadamitsu. All of them, who carry extraordinary light on their bodies and run at speeds that surpass ordinary people, are first-rate players who go beyond the level of simple extraordinary combat personnel.
Before Zero chapter 3
It shows that Domyouji’s dad although maybe quite proficient to handle sword and own a dojo, was not King’s elite personnel, unlike Andy. Before we know that regarding talent Andy is better than his dad so it’s understandable if he can’t become King’s elite personnel but his son can. Wonder what he felt about it.
So, based on those fact, my headcanon about Domyouji’s dad is :
- Quite rebellious for a traditional dojo owner, although probably not as social butterfly as Andy
- To get away from his conservative strict family, he ran to France, and met Andy’s mom.
- He fall in love with his France wife and France sweets like cake and macaroons. Andy inherited his sweet tongue.
- He proposed his wife in front of Eiffel tower, but his family urged him to go home. His wife dutifully followed him.
- He met Habari Jin, was fascinated with Blue King’s “whuush ping ping pow”, and followed him to be a Blue clansman
- Named his sword with weird names like Legbiter or Balmung.
- Probably gave Shiotsu headache just like Andy to Fushimi
- He assisted old Scepter 4 on their last fight with Purgatory, but probably evacuated with Shiotsu when the situation was too dire
- "I wish I knew what they were thinking, both Captain and Fushimi-san!" remember when Andy said that on ROK? I imagine Domyouji’s dad also thought the same when Habari and Zenjou dashed to Kagutsu explosion center by themselves (they were thinking about double suicide, Domyoujis...)
- After Kagutsu incident, he went home and mourned his King’s death on his wife’s lap.
- Probably he urged little Andy to be strong so not only he can defend himself on the dangerous world, but also so he can protect those he cares about.
- He still stayed in Scepter 4 after Habari’s death, so he encountered Jungle quite some times, and prevent Andy to access it in disguise of restricting Andy’s phone.
- When Andy met Munakata Reisi, he saw how fascinated Andy was and he knew that his son already met his King.
- For him his Blue King is Habari Jin and Habari Jin only, but he knew how his son’s feeling and gave him permission to enter Scepter 4 at such young age.
- Probably he told Andy stories about his old clan, so Andy can take some lessons from them.
- He was proud that his son was chosen to be Squad leader and later Special Squad member, but he still worried for his son’s well-being, because probably Habari’s elite personnel got wiped out on Kagutsu incident (hope that we will know more about them on Ground Zero novel).
- When Mikoto almost caused Damocles Down, he had PTSD because it reminded him of Kagutsu incident, so when Andy went home after Ashinaka incident, he hugged his son hard and utterly glad that his son is still alive.
- He saw Munakata’s cracked Damocles Sword and hoped that his son didn’t feel the same pain as he did.
- When Andy and current Scepter 4 members assisted Munakata on his fight with Iwa-san, he felt proud for his son, but also worry and little jealous.
- He was so glad that in the end Munakata didn’t die and his son’s clan fully survived, but again he can’t help but feel little envious.
- Overall now he’s like war veteran with calm and melancholic aura.
Help. I’m thirsty for more genderfluid!Saruhiko (please check out my fanfic called Skirts and Fishnets. Located on both AO3 and @my-writing-is-trash ) so I’m just going to put some things down here and I’ll add on when I think of more. YOU ALL CAN FEEL FREE TO ADD MORE. I LOVE THIS AU SO MUCH.
[Everything below is at the time of when my fic takes place– a few months after the Destroying of the Slate so he’s 20]
Soft Warning: I swear, okay? I get in the spirit of things and get excited and it comes out that way. I cut most of it out.
Makeup? They look fabulous in everything. Eye-shadow, lipstick, nail polish??? Yes. They are stunning and love it all. Especially mascara/eyeliner because their eyes pop in such a nice fashion (not like they do anyways but even more is A++). On any day, they wear eyeliner because it makes them look stunning. They especially like dark blue make up (light blue is nice too but they like the constant and pop that the dark colors give against their pale skin) even though it’s so damn hard to find some of it. Like, they walked into a store looking for dark blue lipstick because the light blue wasn’t working out for some reason and they nearly stabbed the make up section BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS SELL JUST REDS. They got irritated and just bought a black instead which, incidentally, turned out to be perfect.
Nail polish? they love that, especially on their non-masculine days (even tho they leave it on the masculine ones because 1) a hassle to take off. 2) everyone already knows that if they comment, they die. 3) it’s kinda comforting sort of?). Ofc blacks and blues, they would do purple– at least light purple tho– too but Niki fucked that up.
Clothing? Sexy in everything. Nearly absolutely everything. Women’s, men’s, gender neutral? EVERYTHING. I could write a whole big extra post on this (I might even) but I’ll just put down a few things here:
Obviously the typical “Saruhiko” look with his dark colors and all but he also likes to venture out a bit. On the days that they wear more “feminine” clothing, it usually comprises of a nice simple skirt, some sort of shirt (basically the same thing as any other non-work day except for special events or finds something they like), and dress boots. The whole outfit is, naturally, fitted with a small knife set. (I’m gonna write a mini thing about a skirt I want them to wear. Maybe put it in my fic as well). The times when they are more masculine, it’s the same “Saruhiko" look. No difference in wardrobe because none is needed.
SUITS. Their shoulders are too broad to fit in some dresses at this time (when they were younger, they could) so suits it is. And that of course is not an issue because fuck me they are sexy af. [I’m thirsty for people in suits. I have no idea why but for some reason I die when I see someone in a suit. Please dont make a real Saru appear in front of me with a suit unless you want me to die automatically. Like, I dont want to ripe it off of them, I just want to stare at them forever] Misaki instantly has nose bleeds seeing them dressed all fancy.
So that is it of how they express themselves. ugh, whats next. Backstory? Alright, I’ll try to explain some of it
Copied out of my fic: “ This is… new. The old was me. Once in middle school, I had found a bottle of purple nail polish laying around on the floor of the classroom. At this point in time, I had started to seriously consider my sexuality and gender. Typically, I could really care less– if you’re happy, be happy, I have no reason to judge, but then, feelings had started to swirl inside me like a whirlpool. I was angry at myself at first, fully believed that I am just a monkey… a failure, a failure that I couldn’t just be a normal guy that went to school and could hit on girls. So, when I found the little purple bottle, I had hid behind the school. I was curious, no stupid, and started to paint my nails. I have never done that, actually do something that was girly. It was a rush of feelings, angry, happiness, sadness, giddiness; there was enough feelings that I couldn’t help but laugh as my eyes teared up. It was proof that I was a failure but also proof that I could be someone different, someone whose life wasn’t an endless parade of despair. During the midst of raw feelings, Misaki had found me hunched up behind the baseball pits. First, he was concerned, who wouldn’t be if their friend is hiding with tears falling down their face? But once he saw the nail polish bottle laying in the grass by my feet, he just smiled. A genuine beautiful warm smile cross his face as he laughed and picked up the bottle, saying, “Fushimi, you could’ve told me. There’s nothing to be ashamed about.” He grabbed my half painted hand and brush-cap to start to go to work after those words. His blind acceptance was… wonderful. Wonderful in the fact that he could really care less whether I wore skirts or pants, whether I wore make up or went bare, whether I was girl or a boy. He took me for who I was– his friend.”. So yeah. That’s that. You could probably find the cause of why they are upset because of his dickish father, no shit.
Essentially, Saru had many conflicting feelings about his gender when they were young (12 at this point) and having a father that doesn’t help much– really not at all, or even worse so. At times, Saru didn’t feel like they fit into the masculine standards, yes they were a guy, yes they dressed like one and acted like one but deep down, they didn’t feel like one. At firstly they were concerned because they didn’t feel like a guy and they were nearly 90% sure they weren’t female either so where they? For a year of suffering from NIki and suffering from this confusing confliction, they figured out they were either female nor male at times but they were just… there? No defined boundaries of gender yet still existed as a gender? Saru was just confused but through the means of logic, technology and information, they finally realized what exactly what they are on those none masculine days. Yes, they go back to male from time to time depending on the day or week but they figured out that the other identification was neutrois. Then came the problem that how did they like feminae clothing while still being male/neutrois? Shouldn’t I just like malsaine and gender neutral clothing and not feminine? They thought but after some time of realization that make up and clothing really don’t have a gender, it’s just that a sociality viewed on this and decided to mark things are “Male” or “Female” and none in between. So, at least in their mind, they felt more okay when feminine like clothing when they identified as neutrois. At this time (now at age 13 when he knows Misaki well), they haven’t gotten around to try anything remotely none masculine because of the ever so looming darkness that lives at their house. When they found the lavender nail polish, they picked it up on impulse and with the wild drive of wonder, they started to explore what it really felt like to do something that wasn’t forced upon him by society. And, they liked it.
Obviously, it took some time for Misaki to understand what Saru really was. He never knew that someone can be different than what they were assigned to at birth but to a great personal shock, he realized that it really didn’t matter if Saru wore skirts or went by a different set of pronouns; Saru was Saru no matter what they did, nothing would change the fact that they were friends. Yes, of course, at first Misaki didn’t understand and was bothered by the fact that boys weren’t supposed to like feminine things because that made them look “weak” but he soon got the point through his own research and answers to his questions from Saru.
Over the years, Saru got more comfortable with the aspect of being genderfluid. Their range of what he would do to express themself steadily widened once they joined Horma then finally Scepter 4.
During Homra times, Totsuka, Anna, and Misaki took it in great lengths to help Saru along with themself. Misaki was distant and attached to Mikoto, yes, but he took it in his own hands to make Saru feel more accepted. He went to Chitose and asked how to do make up because at this time, Saru hasn’t looked into that aspect of themself because gross gross stuff is sticking to my skin weirdly and people would stare, so Misaki took it upon himself to find this out because damn, Misaki can totally see Saru all prettied up like that. Totsuka came up a with a harness design for Saru’s knives that would fit under their skirt but Saru only made it once he joined Scepter 4.
Scepter 4. Oh boy. Muna has a field day one day. Aki found Saru out on the streets in his feminine clothes because it was a weekend and they weren’t required to wear their uniform that day (They wear the same uniform as in [K]. no need to change it). Aki was concerned and confused but gave Saru a gentle smile before continuing on his day. Aki ends up going back to HQ and letting Muna know since he felt that this is important for the Captain to know. Muna already knew about Saru being genderfluid (cuz Scepter 4 dad knows all) but since Aki came forward, he decided to a special meeting about the aspects of the LGBTQ+ community. Of course, he makes the meeting and requires everyone from the Special Forces to attend, especially Saru. The poor person of interest kept clicking their tongue throughout the whole meeting because they knew this came about because of them. Muna informs them on the differences between sexualities and genders, and pronouns and how to not be ignorant about these things. Dōmyōuji asked an inappropriate question and he was nearly stabbed by Saru. After that, everyone on the team at the time was respectful towards Saru and used the correct pronouns and didn’t question his motives because they didn’t want to be stabbed like Dōmyōuji.
Jungle. Basically the same as [K]. Yukari finds Saru in their room applying some green/black make up on for the day (come on. They have to match the colors of their affliction at the time, plus green does look kick ass on their.) and pretty much flips out and fangirls. Like, “omg. My child is following my ways!” All sparkly eyed and trying to get at Saru when they just raise a hand and push him away, saying that they would just go out on the mission plain and boring if he didn’t stop his nuisances. So, Yukari leaves them alone as they got ready. Everyday he keeps trying to get at Saru and their makeup but they effectively shut him down each time, not wanting to be bothered by this beauty-insane maniac and just complete their own personal mission.
Please enjoy this post. I’m always willing to talk about this over messages if you guys would like. Sorry that this is bulleted. I keep forgetting it looks terrible on mobile but please enjoy anyways.
Alrighty friend first off sorry for bopping in on your blog like this but I got an interesting pairing and kiss selection if your down: 4B and I was wondering about this one: Andy Domyouji and Yukari (if you can't its cool but it was one I had weirdly brew in my head for some reason)
I… Really have a mighty need to know WHY this couple was born, omg. And don’t be sorry lmao. It isn’t a NOTP (I didn’t even know this EXISTED), so here:
