I love your Blog, can I ask for Jakurai as a single dad?
━━ ∘◦ ☆ ◦∘ ━━
Pairing: Jakurai Jinguji
Genre: Fluff
Warnings: None
A/N: This was so cute to do, I love the idea of dad!jakurai because, let’s be honest, he already acts like a father figure to Hifumi and Doppo too. Hope it was okay that I did headcanons! It got a bit long so the rest is under the cut. Enjoy~
⋘ ──── ∗ ⋅◈⋅ ∗ ──── ⋙
Jakurai tries his hardest to be everything to his child
and by that I mean he wants to be a good influence, but also be a friend, and a good parental figure, but also someone the kid can rely on
overall though, Jakurai just wants to raise his child to be a good person
I can see him cutting back on his work hours when the kid is young because he wants to make sure that he spends lots of time with them
he’s always the first parent in the parking lot to pick his kid up from school and makes sure that if he’s on call with the hospital, that he has both a second and a third backup to pick the kid up
because to Jakurai, the biggest mistake he could possibly make would be making his child think that they were unloved
he doesn’t hesitate to splurge on his kid, but he’s very careful not to spoil them because he wants his kid to understand the value of money
when the kid is young, Jakurai makes sure that he makes holidays like birthdays and Christmas special because he wants his child to have good memories when they’re older
will wake up at 5am just to put presents under the tree because he’ll be damned if the kid stops believing in Santa before its ‘the right time’
he absolutely loves taking his kid to places like the park and the library
always reads a good night book to his kid, and if he’s ever in the hospital working a 24 hour shift, he’ll call them to read it over the phone
never hangs up without saying ‘I love you’ and will be extremely saddened if his child doesn’t say it back
he can be strict about things like school work and tv time and rules around the house, but he does everything with the best intentions
and even if the kid doesn’t know that in the moment, they’ll be thankful in the future
Jakurai doesn’t put a cap on creativity though, and actively pushes his child to do the things they find interesting, putting them in all sorts of sports and activities
being a single dad is hard though, and when he’s alone sometimes he has mental breakdowns because it’s all just too much for him
and he’s afraid that he’s not raising his kid right or giving them the amount of attention they deserve
or that he’s somehow teaching them the wrong things and there’s nobody to tell him otherwise
but at the end of the day, Jakurai would die (and probably kill) for his kid so even if he doesn’t believe it, he’s definitely doing right by them
one thing that’s hard for Jakurai is giving up control
he never wants his kid to feel stifled or held back, but I can imagine him hesitating to give them their full freedom
this might result in fights and arguments when the kid is in high school or a bit older because they want Jakurai to see them as an adult, but Jakurai still wants to see them as the little kid that needed him
I can see him really putting his foot down if his kid is hanging out with the ‘wrong crowd’ or slacking off at school (which might lead to arguing as well)
which is funny cause like Jakurai was a whole assassin but he’ll still give his kid a lecture if they so much as look at a bottle of beer
eventually though, Jakurai will come to understand that his kid is the most important thing to him and he would never want to do anything to break their trust or ruin their relationship
so he’ll always make compromises or yield himself to them, giving them the space and freedom they need, but still wanting to keep tabs on them
he’s absolutely going to do ‘classic dad’ things (i.e. standing in front of the tv with his arms crossed, playing his phone on full volume, saying that they can’t get a dog and then loving the dog more than anyone in the family)
FISHING TRIPS
he will continue to press his kid to go on fishing trips with him, even if the kid thinks fishing is boring, and his kid doesn’t have the heart to turn him down because Jakurai always just gets so excited and happy
inadvertently embarrasses his kid when he goes to drop off their lunch at school when they forget it, or tell them that he loves them in front of his friends
when his kid finally asks what their dad was like when he was younger, Jakurai just stares at them because how do you explain that you used to be an assassin but then decided to be a doctor and now you fight in rap battles in your free time
so he just tells them that he studied a lot before demanding they finish their vegetables before leaving the table
for some reason I can see him being in a family group chat or just talking with his kid, constantly using outdated gifs and memes
and then promptly asking his child to explain all of the memes to him
because he wants to be the ‘cool dad’
but even though he sometimes might be embarrassing or overbearing, he’s always going to have his child’s best interests at heart
and will strive to be #1 dad - just like it says on the mug his kid got him that he drinks out of every morning and proudly displays in his hospital office
I am Etihw
Back from your Trap
And my Kcalb is never going to be defeated by the likes of you
Now I am going to get you
So now there’s no escape for you
Run now you weak stupid fools
Come at me with those fiery tools
Let’s go you powerless devil
Let’s go you can’t destroy my world
Go ahead and try to kill us if you’re able
Can’t you see that my world is much better
I can see you hate how I love Kcalb
But I think you’re just mad cause you were thrown away
You’re not gonna stop what we have together
We’re gonna stay like this forever
If you kill us we’ll just come back stronger
And we will always be stronger than you are
Because we’re made

This is who I am and this is my world
And if you think you can destroy it then you can think again
Cause I am the God here and I won’t let you destroy my world
I won’t let you hurt anyone else here again
Go ahead and try to kill us if you’re able
Can’t you see that my world is much better
I can see you hate how we co-existed
But I think you’re just mad cause you we’re Peaceful
But I am more than just this world’s God
Everything they are is what I am
I am their Peace
I am their happiness
I am their love
This world is made
