If you follow my Toyama Division blog, you've seen her before but now she has official art! Yano's older sister finally can debut which is so exciting lololol
“The night is still young!” a tipsy Yano shouts out at the top of his lungs. Laughter surrounds him as his friends from Glassara Glass Studio cackle at the energetic young star of their group.
“No way Yano! We got places to be man, you go have fun, ‘kay?” one laughs.
At once, the glass artist begins to tear up. “Y-You’re leaving me out?”
“No man, we gotta get home. I got to see my family in the morning and Okuro’s already had enough.” the man says, adjusting a very drunk friend on his shoulder. “Everyone else has other things to do you know?”
“Ah, sorry, sorry.” Yano sniffles, rubbing the tears away with the back of his hand. “I’ll see you guys another time then. Thanks for celebrating with me.”
For a moment, it seems the groups are about to part with Yano standing alone in the street and the groups heading in opposite, yet different directions. But it doesn’t take very long before more tears suddenly well up in Yano’s teal eyes and he cries out, grabbing the entire group of men in a big bear hug. All the men clamor in both discomfort and amusement as Yano sobs out his drunken goodbyes. Soon, Yano finally lets go to allow his coworkers and friends to wander away, leaving Yano to stand alone.
“M’m gonna find ‘nother place…” Yano mumbles as he trods down the street in the direction of the heart of Toyama city. Snow begins to fall, whilst the cool January air washes over Yano’s face, clearing his bleary mind a bit. In the moment of clarity, thoughts start to race in his head. Creating a team with Asato and Kensaku, using the mics for actual competitions, and meeting so many people from around Japan and even other countries. But most importantly, one thing kept repeating in his head.
“I’m going to have to go back there-”
HONK!
Crying out in surprise, Yano falls back having not paid attention to the fact he was walking straight into a busy road. Sitting on the sidewalk now, with snow piling up around him it finally clicks in his head how cold it’s getting.
“Shit, shit, I gotta find someplace sooner…” in the corner of his eye, a flash of pink catches his attention. Immediately, Yano tenses.
Standing up on his feet and brushing the snow off his olive jeans, Yano bundles himself in his orange hoodie and starts walking. His goal to find a warm place is replaced with another thought.
“Why the fuck is the pink bastard following me…?!”
.
.
.
It’s been hours now.
Snow has piled up a good couple of inches and Yano can’t help the fact he’s trembling from the biting freeze that’s whirling all around the city. Not to mention the piercing blue eyes that were watching his every move, chilling Yano further. No matter where he went, from street to street, building to building, watchful eyes kept observing his every move. At this point though, the game of hide and seek was exhausting him and he wanted nothing more than to get rid of the prying eyes.
Marching towards the parking lot of a department store long closed down, Yano knew that his stalker was aware they were caught. So, without looking back, he let them follow on his heels. Walking up the stairs, a childish voice crooned behind him.
“So, where are we going?”
“Somewhere.”
“Hmm… This looks like some dump to me!”
“Sure does.”
The echoes that followed Yano stop at that statement, almost as if the person were hoping to get Yano to stop and turn around. But that didn’t deter Yano’s judgement, still marching up the stairs with an echo thudding with each step.
“Hey, hey, how long do you plan to run around? I’m only here to chat for a little bit.” Again, the voice chirps, their footsteps rushing to catch up with Yano in thundering booms.
Yano gives no response, only letting out a noise of approval. Finding that the next floor was appropriate, Yano lead himself and the figure onto the musty, space of emptiness.
“So, are you gonna look at me now?”
Yano can’t help but clench his teeth in frustration. And with his frustration, his signature teary eyes went with it. As he turned, he couldn’t help but feel even more upset seeing the person behind him… Or much rather, the thing that stood there with that sickening grin plastered on its face.
Ramuda Amemura.
“There you go!” Ramuda cheers, giggling. “Was it really that hard?”
“Yeah, it is fucking hard.” Yano spits out holding back the urge to scream out at the thing.
“Aww, are you crying? It’s not like I’m here to do anything to you.”
“I don’t give a shit.” the pinkette looks a bit surprised at how Yano snapped back. “I already know that some stupid clone like you doesn’t matter to those assholes. No man matters to them in the end of it all.”
“Stupid…?”
“I don’t know what the scientists tell you whenever they bother to send one of you guys to me, but let me tell you one thing.”
“What?”
Brandishing his microphone, Yano glares at the clone through his tears and growls out.
“I don’t give a shit how upset they get, breaking their toys for 'petty reasons' or whatever bullshit reason they want to get pissed at me for. But I’m going to send you back to them in pieces. Just. Like. The others.”
Before Yano has the chance to press the button, an hand snatches the mic from the man’s hand. Whipping around, Yano finds himself face to face with:
“Riyeko?!”
“End, scene.” the woman smirks up at Yano. “Always such a dramatic, aren’t you little brother?”
“Right? He was soooo serious about killing me, wasn’t he?” the Ramuda clone sadistically laughs. Yano turns to glare at the clone through his angry tears, hating how hollow the thing acted.
“He was! But we can’t let him do something like that, can we?” Still keeping Yano’s microphone grasped in her teal-painted fingers, Riyeko Ietsuna saunters over to Ramuda and drapes her arms over the small pink man. “Because if Yano were to go berzerk like that Halloween incident, I’d get into more trouble.”
Yano seems to shrink at that statement. “T-That was…”
“Seven subjects, Yano.” Riyeko interrupts. “Seven, oh-so-valuable experiments they weren’t planning on losing, all destroyed in one night.”
“So scary!” Ramuda squeals as Riyeko rests her head on the shorter one’s shoulder.
“It was. Had I not found my poor, little brother passed out surrounded by identical bodies of a very familiar fashion designer and celebrity…”
“The failure, especially…”
“We would have dug ourselves into a deeper pit of trouble, wouldn’t we, Yano?” the woman grins. That gentle grin is soon turned into a cackle as Yano stands in the middle of the parking building, fists balled up tight. “What, why are you upset?”
“I-I… You…” As Yano stumbles through his words like an upset child, Riyeko uncurls from around the clone and walks slowly back to her brother, smiling, watching, and waiting for her brother to spit it out. “J-Just tell me why you two are here. Please, I didn’t want to see you… Especially that damn thing there-”
“My bosses only wanted to wish you a happy birthday, Yano.” she places his mic back into his hands, squeezing it tightly. “Even if your little team of country bumpkins has yet to really battle, they’re proud of how popular you have gotten. Not to mention all your reports you called in on both of your teammates.”
“It’s not like I have a choice.”
“You put yourself into this. The both of us are here, because of your mistakes.”
Yano clenches, gripping the microphone tightly. “It was just one time-”
“And one time is enough for someone like Kadenokoji to kill you, Yano, I already told you.” Riyeko sighs, “We only got lucky because of Otome and him.”
At that, Yano starts to sob. Releasing his hands, Riyeko pulls back, frowning at Yano in disapproval. “Crying will only get you so far Yano. Just… Keep up the work.”
“Are we done?” Ramuda clone questions “I wanna go home!”
“We’re done.” Riyeko turns and walks past the clone who bounces after her.
“Happy birthday Yano. Don’t cause any more trouble.”
Incomplete character correlation diagram! Until I finish the fourth team, which yeah, their color is gonna be gray, this is going to be a WIP. But with three fucking teams and a secondary Chuohku team, I gotta start posting now. (´∀｀；)
I would expound on all the relationships, but I'm gonna hold that for when I finally debut my last team. If you're curious, do check out my old chart in the link HERE and HERE. Shows the detailed dynamics between my @toyama-division and @suginami-division teams, since they're direct rivals. :^)
Balling his fists, the animator prepared to strike back at the incoming punch from the purple and green haired man. Before the two could collide however, their respective teammates clung to their limbs and clothes, pulling them apart.
Maki: “Ryuko, this is no place to raise your fists!”
Yano: “Y-Yeah Asato, what tall-ass said!”
While Ryuko seemed to struggle and writhe in the arms of his older brother, Asato was much quicker to calm down. Although his eyes conveyed a rage that neither Yano or Kensaku had seen, Asato appeared much more unbothered than the yakuza who wanted nothing more than to cave in the farmer’s face. The young man uncharacteristically brushed off his teammates as they loosened their grips, so Asato could stare at his raging rival.
Asato: “...You want a fight?”
Both ECO BooN men looked surprised at their leader as he pulled his hypnosis microphone out from the satchel that hung from his belt and held it out.
Asato: “Fight me. Use your words. Prove that you’re not a coward.”
Instantly those words it set off the white haired man as he miraculously snapped out of his giant brother's grasp and whipped out his own microphone. With a snarl Ryuko shouted out.
Ryuko: “I’ll show you who’s the real coward!”
Maki: “Ryuko, stop that this-”
Shuu: “Let him go sensei.”
The smaller man grasped onto Maki’s sleeve with a surprising amount of strength. Despite how much the professor wanted to protest, the detective pointed out an important detail in a disappointed sigh. A short ways away, the other team leaders, Hisoka and Nobuo seemed to be preparing to duke it out with their microphones and speakers materializing behind each of them.
Shuu: “Look, all the team leaders seem to have a need to blow off some steam. Just let them at it, m’kay?”
Solemnly, Maki nodded. At least they were choosing to use their microphones to settle their disagreements… But would there be consequences for the fight, he wondered.
Asato:
Yet again here you are, all bark no bite
Couldn’t do your damn job so you start a fight
So come on, here’s your chance
Quit that shit, get in stance
Use your mic to prove your worth
So I can plant you in the earth
Make use of that oxygen you’re always wasting
Come on Ryuko, don’t keep me waiting
Unprepared for the verse, Ryuko staggers back. As he’s forced onto one knee, he can only grit and bear as Asato continues his relentless attack.
Asato:
Don’t die on me now, we just got started
Not the first time you’ve been bombarded
You’re just a aphid in my field
Nothing more than a weed
So give up on your dreams, you aren’t winning this battle
Ryuko: “Rrrgh… Shut up, shut up, sHUT UP!”
Ryuko:
Think again you piece of shit
It’s you who will submit
Gonna to wipe that look off your face
When I trample you, erased
Nobody will ever know your name
Just some farmer with no game
Who do you think you are getting picked for the stage
Get back to Toyama and stay in that cage
Silently, Asato seemed to grit the lyrics coming at him. No comment, no expression. His blank face simply glaring at Ryuko who doubled into his lyrics.
Ryuko: “You want some more, huh?!”
Ryuko:
A cage? How about a grave?
It’s what you get for acting brave
My temper might be a pain in the ass
But it’s the thing that proves that you’re outclassed-
Ichijiku: “Enough!”
Cutting through the courtyard, all the hypnosis microphones seemed to snap off and dissipate when a woman’s voice roared through the temporary battlefield. All the men snapped their heads in the direction of two women standing at the entrance of the hotel, the taller one with a pink ponytail appearing as the source of the shouting.
Ichijiku: “Nothing but barbarians… Officer Ietsuna. Take care of the ECO BooN and Sazanka Zombeez leaders. I'll handle the other two teams.”
Riyeko: “Yes ma’am!”
Following Ichijiku’s instructions, the brunette stalked over to the two teams she was ordered to confront with a small crew of uniformed women behind her. At the sight of the women approaching, Ryuko was quick to threaten with violence, now that he had his weapon strangely nullified.
Ryuko: “Huh? You want to fucking go? I’ll fucking beat your ass once I’m done-”
Riyeko: “No you fucking aren’t! Shut up for one second, you prick!”
Not expecting that response from an officer, Ryuko was effectively silenced. The shorter brunette officer then led herself and a small group of female officers over to the two quarreling groups. Her amber hues pierced through each member, before settling on the two leaders with their now nullified hypnosis microphones.
Riyeko: “Fucking morons the both of you.”
Ryuko: “What did you-?!”
Riyeko: “This is expected of you, Ryuko Umemoto. Kadenokoji-san warned us that your were the most likely to start throwing punches.”
Ryuko: “H…How do you…?”
The Zombeez appeared shocked that this woman regarded their leader so casually. None of them expected the casual, vulgar tone from an officer, especially towards their leader who looked completely flabbergasted by the situation.
Riyeko: “However, we are disappointed in you Asato Rikiya. We were hoping your typical demeanor would prevent you from acting irrationally, but you have surprised us.”
Her gaze drifted to her brother.
Riyeko: “Right, Yano?”
Yano: “Y-Yes ma’am.”
The response earned a strange look from Kensaku pointed at Yano, but he kept silent as Riyeko continued on.
Riyeko: “I’m trusting you boys will accept this act of mercy from Kadenokoji-san. Do this again and you may not be so lucky. Got it?”
It was brief, but straightforward. A warning to the two teams to stay out of trouble until the competition started. Once the two teams had nodded with shame, Riyeko seemed to sneer at their submission (something not missed by the ticked off Ryuko) and sauntered back to the rejoin with Kadenokoji’s team.
Maki: “To think a woman like Ichijiku Kadenokoji would be the one to stop us…”
Shuu (mumbling): “Ramu-chan was right, they do have a canceller. And say...Isn’t the pretty pink lady a person of interest?”
Maki: “Sorry? What did you say?”
Shuu: “Oh, nothing! We can talk about it later. For now…”
Grabbing his team mates, Shuu smiled at the two Umemoto brothers.
Shuu: “We should go! Right?”
Maki: “Indeed.”
Shrugging Shuu off, Ryuko let out a soft growl before looking at Asato.
Ryuko: “Tomorrow you’re going to lose, farmer brat. Say your goodbyes to your family, hm?”
Asato didn’t bother to respond, only glowering at Ryuko with a nod. With that, Ryuko scoffed at the purple haired man and walked away.
Kensaku: “So, that was the yakuza guy who harassed your family?”
Yano: “Yeah, that was the guy. I only saw him a couple times when I was visiting his house years ago. Grandma Rikiya really pissed him off everytime they came around.”
Kensaku: “Heheh, sounds like her… Say, Yano? Do you know that officer?”
Kensaku: “Well, that was a weird response. Whatever, come on Asato-kun.”
Asato: “...yeah.”
Asato paused for a moment, watching as each team dispersed from the courtyard and into the hotel. Ryuko, seething in rage. Hisoka, pale as a sheet and trembling. And finally Nobuo. Unlike the others, he seemed unaffected by the conflict and in fact, more confident than ever. Looking down at his own boots, Asato wondered:
A tertiary team within the Party of Words, as expected they consist of three women. The Director of Intelligence and Research Office Mayumi Tanaka, an officer in the traffic bureau Riyeko Ietsuna, and middle school student Arisu Chikahisa.
These women both handle and command the events of my own Hypmic OCs' worlds. This is where most of the D.R.B. events between my blogs will be posted.
Blogs that are intermingled to here are @toyama-division, @suginami-division, @obihiro-division, and @himeji-division. Most of the crossover posts between them will be reblogged here, but please follow the team blog you are rooting for!
This is a canon-divergent Hypnosis Mic blog run by @nugsters. Character art done by me will be tagged with "nugsters art". Character-specific posts will be tagged appropriately with their names. This blog is completely for fun so postings will be irregular. Interactions and questions are encouraged!
