How the fuck does the age gap between Genos and Saitama make me feel old. The the fuck is this I am literally between their ages this is madness (im going insnae)(nothing new)
Another AU cus I think I have a clinical problem atp (no joke this is a pattern across all my fandoms)
so ive been obsessed with princess Genos for weeks now ever since I read his wiki for mroe details AND ever since I learnt there's a story where he and Sai go to a festival wearing yakutas I've been so obsessed with a feminine-ish Genos wearing a yakuta, either as malewife or now as a princess lol. for some reason Genos in a Yakuta is an amazing itch in my brain and I wanna learn more Japanese cultural wear to put him in
so for this AU imagine he wears the traditional japanese dressing cus that is the only thing I can think of for this AU
also, like. Think of Raiden Ei from Genshin Impact but no boob window nor titty sword (faaawwwwwwwwk I just thought of it. Im so tempted now.....but idk how to make it work good. SU Pearl style looks better for him imo)
Edo-ish period AU where Genos was a demon soldier, the strongest and a general for demon lord Orochi. Thanks to a trick Orochi learnt he sent Genos to be the key to opening the gate between the underworld and the mortal world, so that they could claim the fertile lands of humanity as their own
Genos was reborn as the family of simple humble villagers, and they raised human minded Genos with such human love and kindness while having their flaws but still being kind with him and fighting for him. Then as Genos’ demonic nature started to return to him at 14 came back to him he started getting small memories and realised he’s here on a mission, and must fulfil the three tythes of mortality for his powerful birthright to open a gate between the worlds. But young Genos realised the love of the human world was so much better than the demon world, and they are sealed down there for a reason. So Genos vows to not open that gate and start learning the sword carefully imbued with some of his demonic qi to become strong and defend the basic humans from the threats that he could unleash, and he must never smile, laugh nor shed a tear lest the energies of those strong emotions open the gate. This meant he had to harden his heart so that his emotions would not betray him and cause the downfall of his vow. His family and village realised he was become more stoic and stern, but he was becoming extra polite and helpful, so they just made sure he was okay and he isn’t alone, appreciating all his efforts.
At 15 all hell broke loose when a tear, after multiple unfortunate events, fell from his eye. Just that black tear was enough to make a rift open and release a few dangerous and random demons. They destroyed the village and the powerful ones slaughtered the people, Genos not being trained or strong enough to defeat them and save lives. In his pain he unlocked his fire powers, nearly losing himself as he rejected his demonic energy, but then Bang, the technique master of energy flow, came and saw that Genos was a demon of a different nature, so sealed his weak powers instead of killing him. Right before Genos could pass out he wishes Bang had killed him instead, murmuring it would be better for them all if he was dead. That only intrigued Bang more, and he was determined to understand just what happened here. He alone buried all the people and put out the fires, waiting in the wreckages within a still usable home for this strangeling to wake up and explain itself
When Genos came to Bang was friendly but stern, and Genos was honest in confessing all the truth. Bang, pondering the story, deduces that what Orochi learnt was no random trick, and indeed he is part human now. Genos is even more conflicted, loves this world and because of it doesn’t want to hurt it. Bang suggests channeling it instead, as there are many nasty and dangerous energies that exist in this world yet they still exist thanks to humans learning how to master a balance with their mortal, neutral natures to let those powerful chaotic natures coexist with them peacefully. Genos still hesitant, and Bang offers that his determination to protect this village’s lives, even as he knows who he really is and why he’s here, is nothing short of commendable. And if he truly wants to protect this world then he should persist and fight for it. That turns Genos around, realising he did hold his own against those demons before his powers had a surge, and he vows to fight for the balance of the worlds and safety of the mortal world.
Before they leave genos asks him to seal his powers for good, not even wanting to try with them lest there come a repeat of that surge. But Bang explains that genos is indeed powerful, and he had to use a strong seal that nearly broke as he fought against Bang in wariness. Right now it holds because he is calm, but warns that should he have any surges, and likely as his powers grow with maturity and time, the seal will break naturally and stronger ones will have to be found and used. Thus encourages Genos to train with them as well, offering his dojo as a secluded place to practice in secret so he too may have reign over his hectic powers. Genos is displeased but the reasoning is sound and he agrees
Genos takes a vow of silence and learns sign language to further strengthen his emotional control and is taken in as a student of Bang and Bomb exclusively, but he shortly uses the sword to rely less on his elemental powers and not give himself away. But under the white lie of spells he can infuse his powers with his blade in public and learn to practice the three arts at the same time. The council of Swords learn of this and invite him to learn as well, and Bnag encourages it to hone his weaponry skill as they can teach him a great lot too. Thus he studies under the Atomic Samurai who challenges his control of his powers well and he excels under all three’s treachings
Over time Genos becomes popular, gaining the moniker of the ‘Blazing Blade’ from the 26 provinces and becomes popular for his intelligence and skill. Somehow, with Bang’s connections, he’s gotten a general’s position in Province Q, but shortly after gets the position of princessfor of Province Z for his safety after a failed attempt to demote and sack him by the United Federation, where monsters are said to run amok. He makes quick work of any demon and monster he encounters, protecting human residences and culling their invasive numbers. Thanks to his efforts people live safely and can grow stronger in Province Z, and building his connections with the help of his alies he becomes the official princess of the Province with the people’s loyalty. Genos is awed by this, and makes sure to take care of the people well, learning all he can about the good, bad and ugleis of politics
Zero (Drive Knight) was a renouned thin many porvinces, coming to hide away in Z. But through an altercation with an unknown individual (Saitama facing an enraged Sonic) he got caught and was identified, sent straight to the princess for the decidal of his fate. Genos uses a truth spell to make Zero speak honestly, and he admits he was gonna lie low and retire here as he’s fulfilled his life debt to his slave master. Genos takes him to spar with swords, and while Zero loses he held himself well. Genos knights him as a guard of the palace and gives him citizenship in Z. The ex-slace is awed but appreciates it, and asks his name be recognised as Zeta here instead. Genos agrees, and Zeta starts his new life curious about this province
Over time Zeta shows he’s proficient at slaying more monsters, and thus is employed to join the princess on the missions. Zeta realises this princess puts his life on the line fo the measly soldiers Zeta deigns to put his life for him as well, and thsis gets recognised. It’s not long before generals commend Zeta’s fighting and he’s promoted to be the princess’ personal guard, which he takes on diligently. Zeta makes sure the princess takes care of himself better, and after one night of almost losing his life they have a heart to heart as Zeta is delirious on pain and meds while Genos wraps his wounds. Here Genos finds a kindred spirit and speaks, admitting that kinship. The day after there is a mutual understanding, and they share the title of brothers
At 19 Genos feels himself get even more stronger, such that Bang has to come in personally with a stronger seal and genos’ old ones keep decintegrating in weeks. From the signs he cautions that a boost f maturity may negate the seals entirely, and there may be nothing that could hide Genos’ true nature once the tipping point is crossed. Genos understands and agrees, inviting Zeta to share on his situation and the plan should he lose his humanity to his powers, and it’s not gone unnoticed that he’s become more reutheless in missions and harsher in sparring, such that he and Zeta can’t spar anymore
A week later Genos takes a stroll through the abandoned east side of the Province, where it’s still been too dangerous for anyone to live in safely, due to what he perceives is a weakpoint between worlds that could serve as a gate should even a simple Cadre have the means to open any basic gate. Thus it’s here that Genos strolls more often to clear what little pests he encounters to ensure that never happens
One day a mosquito bitch tests his patients and nearly out’s that he’s a demon, growing his ire. But just as he’s forced to use more of his magic and risk breaking his current seal some random dude appears and takes care of her. Genos is awed by this, staring at the scorched guy that just unknowingly saved his secret. He then realises he burnt the guys clothes and feels horrible, but the man waves it off and asks if he’s alright, and genos is surprised he isn’t fawning over him like the rest but doesn’t give a fuck and thanks him again for helping out
Again and again they meet, Genos fighting monsters he struggles with and this stranger killing them in the end when he’s at risk of unleashing himself. Somehow, they’ve never exchanged names, but neither mind as they get deep into friendly chatter after the monster is killed. Genos realises that he’s been getting better control over his powers these past few months quicker than he has over the years. He spars with Zeta again, and Zeta commends his control over his strength. Genos admits it might be because he’s been close to losing battles forcing him to try different techniques and methods instead of go headfirst into things, and this unexplained admission has Zeta confused and curious of what it means, a bit concerned at how ‘close to losing’ Genos was from said battles. Genos explains the stranger that’s been saving him by constant coincidence, and Zeta deadpands that it sounds like a fairytale, and realises he’s never heard of this, not even sightings from patrol of such a man. Genos just shrugs, states again that the realisation that he can lose has made him rethink how he fights with his techniques and likely guided him to be more reserved with how much power he uses. Zeta concurs that failure teaches better than blind success, and Genos just huffs
Right before he reaches 20 he finally learns the name of his ‘Coincidental Hero”, Saitama, and he gives his name too. Saitama recalls he’s heard that name before but can’t figure out where it’s from, and Genos almost hopes he doesn’t realsie cus he likes how casual he’s being treated, he can barely be this lose with anyone that isn’t his closest confidants
(I just remembered Genos is supposed to be selectively mute FUCK im too tired to change it—just imagine that he has a book and pen on him everywhere XD)
And somehow Saitama almost makes him laugh, but he manages to stiffen it with a smile. It’s not until he reaches home that he realised what happened, that he smiled so blatantly and nearly laughed, and he scolds himself for it. He goes back to their spot and checks every area, checks for any sign of monsters having appeared from nowhere and leaving marks in their haste of escape. But he finds nothing different from the aftermath of today’s battle, and with it he goes ot bet tense of the coming days, hoping he didn’t damn this beloved Province with his carelessness
You could not concieve how much old man Yaoi I've thought and indulged in within the past 48 hours about 2 bastards we barley know about and one whom don't even got a face or body sans tall and beef
My parents argued a bit about money and even though my mom said we have enough, I still feel unsure of buying many things and don't know what to do with myself
One day I'm gonna start making money but I know it's gonna be tough cause of capitalism and I'm scared that I won't be able to work against it
I don't want to stress my mom with having to get back the money we spent just to use it up all again. I hate her working so much after all she's struggled with. It pains me everyday
My dad's attitude towards all this isn't helping either. It just adds to all the stress
My confidence and craving for niche combinations of tropes is so high i wanna write so much rn but then like this takes time snd that makes me annoyed but then time means the ideas ferment and grow which means effective creativity and transformation of ideas will not only wow me but provide a hopefully delectable treat for the audience I serve, whoever will try a bite
