Yandere Red Keeper / Sosei Akabane
Yandere sosei akabane general profile
a/n: been watching go go loser ranger, sosei has been on my mind.
Worst case scenario you're a monster.
You being a monster would give him every right and opportunity to keep a constant eye on you and to keep you under his thumb at all times, and he absolutely will.
You're not in too much danger of being killed, he’ll keep you out of any real danger monsters face, but you're certainly treated as subhuman and he makes no attempt to appear nice to you. Your thoughts and opinions don't matter. Your comfort doesn't matter. Your pain doesn't matter.
He knows you're not human and that no one will defend you, you have no rights, and he'll treat you as much. You’re like a pet to him at best, and honestly, it’s hard to tell if he actually ‘loves’ you or if he just loves tormenting you. His affection is rare and his ire is constant.
On some level, he is angry at you (a monster) for making him feel this way, and he takes that out on you every chance he gets.
Best case scenario you're a ranger. Best Best case you're another keeper.
If you're a part of the rangers he has to keep up some level of kindness and respect around you, because it would affect his image negatively to be senselessly cruel to you while you're also a ranger.
Plus if you’re a ranger then you likely think highly of him, and he can use his image and charm to get close to you just as easily as he can use violence and manipulation. Really, it would be perfect for him if you were already some kind of fan or admirer- he’d love to play the hero to you and let you believe you’re carrying out some perfect, movie-worthy romance.
But he absolutely uses his position to keep you close to him. He has a pretty big sway on what happens with the rangers, and I doubt the other rangers are willing to oppose him on something like this (assuming this is an 'all keepers are yanderes' au, they all either actively assist him, passively assist him, or politely stay out of it.) everyone around him enables him, either seeing it as ‘not their problem’ or ‘too dangerous to get involved in’.
You’re truly doomed because no one will ever believe you- and even the people who do wont help you. You were his the second he laid his eyes on you, and the sooner you accept that, the better.
Extra: If you were a keeper as well, he'd have much less power over you and you would be able to avoid the majority of his attempts to force you to be close to him, but you still can tell he’s pulling strings where you can’t see and you know this is a game you’ll lose. If you were smart, you’d give in and be with him- you’d save both of you a lot of trouble, and if you don’t fight him on it, you could possibly be happy with him.
Extra: If you're in the red squadron you're stuck with him all the time. If you're in another squadron, you immediately know something is very wrong because he's keeping you closer than he has any reason to.
His behavior is volatile, and while he’s not the worst to be around, he’s certainly not stable.
sosei is incredibly self centered, and most of his ideal life with you in centered around his wants and needs (for you to yield to him and live for him and adore him and do whatever he tells you to) but if you can do that, he's not too terribly violent or demeaning for the most part (thought he does have his little moments).
You’re not an equal to him, and he makes sure you know it, but he also isn't afraid to let you know you’re dear to him. He’s feels assured when you’re kept in a position of subservience, and
you should know that it’s in your best interest to never talk back, question him, or doubt him.
Just let him decide how things will be, trust in him, yield to his demands and your life will be fine.
While he’ll allow you to continue working if you’d like, you’re not going to be able to maintain many friends, and certainly none outside of the rangers, and your interactions with your family will be reduced greatly, and probably not allowed without him near. It’s also not likely he’ll allow the two of you to get a pet, unless it was his idea first or a gift he gives you.
He's emotionally exhausting because he requires constant adoration, praise, and affection, but doesn't want to have to ask for it and expects you to know how he's feeling. He's also not particularly grateful for any affection you show him- like it's something he's owed, not something he's gifted.
At the very least, he cares very little if your feelings are real or not so long as you're willing to pretend and live by his side, so at least he's not delusional about it and won't freak out if you're not in love with him. If you’re by his side, at least semi-accepting of your circumstances, and you don’t deny him the affection he believes he’s owed, he’s content. Your feelings are of no consequence to him.
It’s unclear if he considers himself to be in love with his darling.
I think on some level he thinks he’s above things like that, and he tries to downplay it to himself how much he cares about you. He knows he cares for you but he convinces himself it’s only the way you love a pet, and that he’d be fine if you weren’t there, that it’s only because you’re the most convenient option.
But that’s not true, and he crashes out crazy hard anytime something goes wrong in regards to you. When he’s in the early stages of pursuing you this is at it’s worst-
He hates you talking to anyone else, but doesn't know you well enough to convince you not to, so he convinces everyone else not to talk to you (convinces is a gentle way to put it, but the point still stands, everyone learns to stay away from you).
he makes a point to see you often, which is excusable if you’re a fellow keeper or a high ranking member of the rangers, but if your a lower ranking member, a monster, or a civilian it becomes strange fast- you immediately start to clock that this isn’t as casual as it seems.
sosei is pretty upfront with flirting with you, because he knows his status; he’s red keeper afterall, and he has no shortage of fans. He vastly prefers if you accept these advances- you should blush and swoon and fall into his arms. It’s what he deserves afterall. If you fall for him, or at the very least accept his affections, life is bearable with him.
He doesn't want to have to work for your affections and he crashes out horribly if you ‘play hard to get’. The very notion that you don’t want him makes his blood boil and while he can mostly keep a cool head around you, the people working under him suffer terribly for it. His moods are very dependent on you and how things are going with you.
you can make life a lot better for yourself if you just him have his way. Is he really so terrible? So awful? No? Then just do what he says at all times and never talk back and be undeniably and unquestionably his.
sosei isn’t much of a stalker, and he doesn’t enjoy watching you from afar. He wants to be an active part of your life, and because of that, he’s more likely to engage with you directly and avoid stalking, following, and stealing from you. This is both a blessing and a curse- a blessing because you are very unlikely to experience paranoia or start to question your own sanity, a curse because he is always around, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
He’s a unique yandere type because he isn't super unpleasant to be near most times, but he is incredibly dangerous to both his darling and others.
