Finally posting this piece as promised!!! Wow, I made this over a month ago and it is still by far one of my favorites and I’m very proud of it. Anzo belongs to @caandydosvale ✨Lore on the AnzoxGoryo au✨ So originally when Goryo and Elk arrived on the planet, Anzo wasn’t the warmest of people, especially with him always being so serious and a grump, but if she hadn’t mentioned Okse sent her in his direction, he probably wouldn’t feel inclined to assist her with navigating their planet. As time progressed, Goryo grew less intimidated by his rough exterior and started to follow Anzo around and pester him for questions, her more curious side to her finally coming out, trying to open him up and see what else there was to this strange man. Eventually, Goryo had calmed down and slowed her advances after Anzo had snapped at her and told her to to stay away. They he wasn’t a good person and that it was best for you her to keep at a distance. That was the first time Goryo had really cried and not known why. Why it hurt so much and what the weird pain had been, as Anzo walked away, guilt in his eyes. Eventually though, Goryo would come around again and continue trying to be around Anzo, insisting he let her hang around and eventually he gave up any hope of chasing her off. As time went by though, Anzo realized he’d started growing stronger feelings for her as they become extremely close, always meeting with one another and having Goryo accompany Anzo and his daughter Bebe, on family trips and staying over. It was as if her and Elk had been an addition to the family. They always were together. But when Anzo realized his feelings for Goryo were much more than friendship and he admitted his love for her, she turned him down and admitted she unfortunately only saw him as her friend and that was all. It didn’t deter him though, they’d continue just how they were and he would be happy enough that she would atleast be in his life, it was good enough for him. However, as time progressed, Goryo would begin to realize maybe she’d been wrong about her original viewpoint of Anzo, that she in fact did reciprocate the same feelings but was too embarrassed to admit her feelings after telling him she’d only ever see him as a friend. Eventually, she did admit her feelings for him when he convinced her to join them in their festivals dance. It’d take some time though for her to finally speak the words “I love you too” though, but when she finally did, it would change Anzo’s entire world once again. (Much later lore) They do eventually get married, Goryo becomes Bebe’s adopted mother and they have 3 smeets. One of which would be named after a belated friend of Anzo and many other ex-Moo Ping 10 prisoners.
