｡ﾟ･ Samatoki and his introverted artist brother – Headcanons ･ ｡ﾟ
☆ Author’s notes: Hey, that's a very sweet idea! I decided to leave his brother's name up to the reader's imagination. Hope you enjoy!
• Samatoki was still very little when his middle brother was born. Let’s call him M. As they grew up, he and his siblings went through the difficult reality of their conflicted and unstable family.
• While Samatoki would later in life try to be aggressive in order to protect himself and his loved ones, M was the complete opposite.
• He absolutely hated fights. He would rather not say anything to avoid any misunderstanding. Alone time was ideal. One could tell M was trying his best to lead a different life, one that did not resemble his past.
• The fact Samatoki was a yakuza and Nemu got involved in The Party of Words didn’t help. His siblings were in opposing sides, so M never said his own thoughts to escape from conflict.
• Art was his peaceful, safe space. He was very sensitive and shy since he was a boy, and would rely on artistic expression to voice his emotions. M had large notebooks filled with drawings and vivid, colorful paintings since his childhood.
• Samatoki was unsurprised when his middle brother said he wanted to study animation. M probably wanted to work by himself, unbothered by others. This job would allow him to do so, Samatoki thought.
• He was partly relieved that, unlike himself, M did not succumb to illegal activities to sustain and protect his family.
• Therefore, Samatoki was supportive of M following an art career. He was always impressed at how talented his middle brother was, and made sure to compliment his works whenever he saw them.
• However, their relationship wasn’t always peaceful. Their polarized personalities brought tension between them occasionally.
• M hated when Samatoki tried sneaking in his room to see his artwork. His brother wouldn’t let him work alone sometimes, and that bothered him terribly.
• Worse than that were the problems Samatoki got into all the time. Seeing his brother arrested again really got in his nerves, M couldn’t understand how his brother was capable of being so troublesome!
• M also did not like the fact that Jyuto, instead of making Samatoki pay for his bad behavior in jail, would always set him free. Yes, Samatoki had his reasons for acting as he did, but it wasn’t fair to see him getting away with it so easily! Samatoki would never learn how to be more careful this way, M thought.
• Samatoki was just a rebel and careless yakuza, and Jyuto was complacent to his wrongdoings. That’s how M saw them.
• M sympathized with Rio, though. Both of them, unlike his brother Samatoki, had values they cared about.
• Samatoki would also get annoyed with his brother here and there. M was very quiet. It was hard to make him speak, and this led Samatoki to yell at him when he didn’t answer, making M shut up completely.
• Samatoki also disliked the fact that M seemed to judge his reckless behavior. They argued about it often, and M would just give up on it, saying it couldn’t be helped. Samatoki felt frustrated that M wouldn’t even try to win an argument!
• Jyuto and Rio thought they were quite comical given they were so different yet lived together. A few moments after an argument, Samatoki would hug his brother and M would hug him back, both laughing at how stupid the situation was.
• This sweetness they had for each other is what kept them together. In one of his animation projects, M dedicated his work to his beloved older brother, Samatoki.
• Needless to say, Samatoki was moved by it. He bought a new graphics tablet for M two days later.
• M was the only family member who stayed by his brother’s side even with all his flaws. And for that, Samatoki was forever grateful.
