Entry 4(I think)
Fluff 💗
-Canon Universe
-Love letters
(again, I'm in kind of a writing slump so this is purely for "just write something purposes.)
Kou Minamoto wasn't stressed, exactly. But sometimes, his thoughts whirled around so fast, it felt like he was on an accelerating treadmill, and he just. Couldn't. Keep. Up.
Yashiro's lifespan, the possibility Hanako would murder everybody, Tiara's safety, training, and Mitsuba's wish, how to keep Mitsuba away from suspicious people (mostly Tsukasa), Mitsuba's general wellbeing...
Sometimes, he just wished everything would just stop. Nothing, just the void, himself, and Kou.
So, he came to the boy's showers.
The steaming hot water snapped his thoughts into orderly lines, and he used the time to make a priority list, writing it in the mist condensed on the mirror.
Mitsuba's general wellbeing
Mitsuba's wish
Keeping Mitsuba away from Tsukasa
Yashiro's lifespan
(Possibly) Hanako murdering everybody
Tiara's safety
Training
Housework
As time went on, Kou's thoughts began to pile up, making the list longer and longer.
Soon enough, he was writing full paragraphs in the steam, words streaming out of his mind onto the glass- why he cared so much about Mitsuba, how he would keep Tsukasa away from him, and the problem of his wish.
God, all he wanted was for him to be safe and happy, and he wished he could tell him that.
But telling Mitsuba in person felt wrong somehow, and whenever he thought about it, a wave of embarrassment crashed over him.
So he settled for scribbling messages onto the mirror, something of a vent session.
Dear Mitsuba,
Do you think of me as often as I do? Do you spend sleepless nights wondering what could've, should've been?
You shouldn't even take up this much of my mental energy. Isn't it nice to know that you're still an annoying brat, even in my brain?
I wish I could help you. I want it so bad sometimes I can't even think straight.
I guess Hanako and Teru are right. I should just shut up and stay at home.
But for you, even if it's just once, I want to save you. I want to take you somewhere far, far away where nobody can hurt you. Do you know how much it hurts when you refuse to take my help, and settle for Tsukasa?
I swear I'm gonna make it so you'll never need him ever again.
-Minamoto Kou
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No. 3 of the Seven Mysteries. The Hell of Mirrors, the guardian of which is entrusted with the power of looking through a mirror and recovering it's memories, theoretically giving No. 3 the domain of the school's memories, not just the records- a responsibility that should be handled with care.
At least, that's what Ol' Wrinkly said. Mitsuba couldn't care less about "responsibility" or "entrusted with great power".
Really, all Mitsuba cares about is that he gets to spy on people. He especially enjoys spying on Minamoto-kun while he's in the showers.
No, not like that, Mitsuba isn't a perv like Minamoto!
(Besides, the amount of steam trapped inside his showerstall is so thick, Mitsuba couldn't see anything even if he tried.)
Up until now, it's been pretty boring. Numbered lists Mitsuba was too lazy to read, lots and lots of mumbling... seriously, Minamoto talks to himself way too much for a sane person.
The key part of that? Up until now. Now, Mitsuba is definitely sure Minamoto has actually gone insane.
Because, what the hell is this.
"Do you think of me as often as I do?"
Ew, no, stalker, but yes.
"Do you spend sleepless nights wondering what could've, should've been?"
What do you think the answer is, dumbass? Yes.
That idiot, does he seriously not remember the entire point of his boundary? Hello, School Mystery Number Three, Hell of Mirrors?
Mitsuba was actually going to kill himself. Maybe he should take a hint from Hella Lame-Ass Earring, and jump off a building or something. Whether from the shock, the burning feeling in his chest and face, the second-hand embarrassment, he couldn't tell.
He also couldn't tell if tomorrow he was going to smack Kou in the face or kiss him on the lips.

Okay, like I said, I don't particularly enjoy any of the stuff I've written. In Mitsuba's words, "ew, no," is pretty much how I feel about my entries so far.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated, as well as requests. I feel like I don't have a good handle on Mit2ba's character, so if anybody could tell me about it/how it compares with OG Mitsuba, that would be a huge help.
Speaking of huge help, thank you so much @cupidsappllie. You're advice was a literal lifesaver.
[A/N: okay i saw everyone really liked the first so heres more! im really gonna need some prompts soon cause my little brain is running out of ideas aleady!! thank yoouu]
If you want more go ahead and suggest a hermit, race, and class! I would prefer it to fit their skin description, and I already have a few visions for some of the hermits, but go ahead and suggest something and I’ll see if I can get started :D
