good MORNING kaito community!!! i realised that i forgot to talk about toujoumota yesterday so i’m back and i’m in spades.
another pairing that i really like for toujou is miurumi, because i feel like they have this shweet shweet contrast, miu’s vulgarity to kirumi’s serene composure, and kirumi could help miu grow more confident in herself and miu could help kirumi to unwind and be more selfish... and i think toujou and momota would have kind of a similar dynamic??
like we were saying yesterday (we: me and the anons, i’m not a hive mind probably) kaito and miu have a lot of parallels, and i think that would be reflected in the way that they interact with their partners, as well, except kaito’s less vulgar and more on the side of like... overwhelming positivity. he would encourage toujou!!! and she would encourage him, too, to take a load off-- and i think after seeing how truly brilliant kaito is kirumi would be like pog... it’s time to work with this guy LFKJDKLSFJ
another thing i want to call attention to is the way that kaito claims credit for all these random people during his ftes, saying they were former sidekicks of his. i like to believe that all of kaito’s lies are based in truth-- so maybe he knew people who went on to do Similar things to what he said, even if he didn’t actually train a pop idol or a prime minister-- but either way, kaito is saying he trained all these impressive people that he probably didn’t. whereas kirumi’s resume is long as FUCK and there’s no way that she would lie about it... which means that in a way kirumi sort of represents kaito’s ideal, the selflessly devoted person who is extremely capable and only exists in relationships to boost the other person forward. like kirumi is Living The Dream so to speak for kaito.
and ordinarily i would call that a pretty nasty dynamic to have in a relationship (idolisation + jealousy = real real real bad) but kirumi isn’t... i mean, i’m sure she enjoys what she does. but i don’t think that she’s happy. she turns herself into a vessel for other people, and accordingly she subsists off of their validation. it’s never enough for her. she’s never good enough, never selfless enough, never helping enough. and i think kaito would see himself reflected in her, if only because they both have that overwhelming desire to be useful, to be helpful. kaito would see how unsustainable that is, how much it’s destroying kirumi-- and maybe he’d not only help her, but allow her to help him.
also worth thinking about: kirumi in kaito’s jacket. that’s it that’s the post /j
okay but seriously they just feel like one of those oddly functional couples?? like i could see them clashing but i think they both have pretty high e.q.s and kaito would urge her to hold him accountable when he fucks up instead of taking all the blame so they’d have really good communication even when they fought... and also there’s all this mutual respect, because kirumi’s one of the people who never calls kaito stupid or looks down on him, she’d probably see him for as intelligent as he actually is, and of course kaito respects kirumi quite a lot.
ALSO please think about kirumi taking care of kaito while he’s sick. please. please. please. please. you’re nothing
wonder if there’s anything for this on ao3. time to go looking i guess
