YAN KAKU!!! i think you rewired my brain a little i need to lay down
I think abt this soooooo much but like having been his fiance back when he was undercover (unbeknownst to u ofc) that he had to leave behind when it all went down……. And he told himself it was all for the cover but esp during those rocky months when he’s on the run w the others he always finds himself thinking back to you………..
Truthfully I ping-pong between smthn nice and sweet where he’s Pining for forever, constantly dreaming about you but well aware that seeking you out now would only lead to you potentially being used as leverage against him by the world government so he has to stay away until he finally snaps out of it n disappears to potentially return to water 7 (which imo is genuinely possibly where his arc might end up in canon???) and then it’s a fun slow burn bc why on earth would u take him back immediately
But then also horrible yan kaku who returns regularly to keep tabs on you. And at first it’s just to watch from afar—but soon enough he’s slipping into your apartment to pilfer little trinkets and things to bring back with him, pushing the envelope more and more until he’s wandering around your room while you’re sleeping, and it’s only a matter of time before he succumbs to the urge to touch you again. And from there it’s an easy step to slipping a little something into your nighttime tea so he can bask in your glassy eyes and breathy sighs of his name. Clearly you’ve been dreaming of him all on your own, from how little you protest when he kisses you again at long last.
