Love 4 All; Part 1: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/thezestyone/686519660882083840?source=share
What started as a little gift for his girl quickly morphed into much more the more Motonari worked on it.
You see, when he first met his girl, it was when summer was in full swing, and she was covered head to toe in flower motifs.
Naturally seeing her in that state made him think of the nickname flower girl for her.
He really didn’t think the two would go past casually flirting, but here they were, a year later and living in the same house, so deeply in love.
Since he liked to keep everyone at a distance for the longest, no one would have been none the wiser (except Hiroyoshi) to his rather kind, and rather romantic side, and this project he was working on was just the pure example of it.
For his flower girl, he wanted to make a whole garden that looks like her. Though it was a bit of a challenge getting the right shade of green flowers for her eyes, Motonari was a perfectionist through and through, and was willing to pay any amount to make sure the garden turned out just right.
What he didn’t really anticipate when he was working on the garden for his girl was a sudden infestation of pests that seemed to come out of nowhere, threatening his perfect garden that he so carefully tended to.
He would constantly be cursing like a sailor in Portuguese every time he would catch a slippery snail threatening to munch on the beautiful petals of his flowers, or the creepy spiders trying to make their dreary webs in the garden. It took everything within himself to keep his composure, since he wanted to appear cool and collected to his girl.
As always, however, Ava would see through him, and caught on to his little project rather quickly, though she didn’t let him know that. She found it quite cute the distances Motonari would go to please her.
“You know, the garden looks just fine as it is, Motonari. I like all the vibrant colors here.” Ava would tell him with a small playful grin on her face, a hand on her hip as Motonari would hold back the urge to pout. “But I ain’t tryna strive for just “fine”, mi vida. I want the flowers to look perfect!” He would whine, as she would softly roll her eyes, and giggle.
“I have been wanting to ask you for a while… What are you planning with this garden, anyway? It’s huge, and as far as I can tell, these plants aren’t of the edible variety like the plants I am used to you planting in your greenhouse.” She asked, despite already knowing the answer. She was curious what his answer would be to her question.
“Well…” Motonari clicked his tongue, going to run a hand through his sun bleached hair for a moment, before his ruby eyes seemed to light up with an idea, as his hands then gently grabbed a hold of her own. Since he was just inspecting the garden now, he went without gloves, a habit he picked up since he felt comfortable going without them when around his girl.
“Follow me, I guess I can show ya now.” He told her, before he was then leading her into their spacious home, and to the overarching balcony that they had that was as swanky as the rest of the place. Motonari took good care of all of his things, and he took even better care of his love. He was absolutely smitten with her, but he always liked to play it off cool, though there was no need to. Ava liked all the sides there were to him. It made her love him even more.
At the very top from their balcony, Ava found herself having her breath taken away by just how meticulous the garden look, and how close it looked to her. The flowers in her eyes were the very same shade of green as her very own. The flowers that made up her hair were also the perfect shade of yellow to compliment her blonde hair. Motonari even arranged the flowers in a way that it matched the usual hairstyle she would wear. Though she was in the know for quite a while, she found herself shocked by just how amazing the garden turned out.
Motonari cleared his throat, a soft blush coloring his cheeks. “This… Was why I was working so hard in making everything perfect. After all…” He then turned to her, an affectionate look shining in his eyes.
“You are perfect to me, mi vida. Te amo…” He told her softly, going to gently caress her cheeks, before bringing her in for a rather gentle kiss.
By the look of the garden, and by his love’s face, he would say all that tending was worth it.
Omg!!!! *dying of happiness* thank you!!!! Perfect birthday present!!!!
The Strange Neighbors: Kanetsugu (Kanetsugu X Reader)
(A/N): Another experimental piece since it’s been in revisions hell far too long for my liking. Enjoy!
Prologue:
The aspiring fashion designer who just moved into town was having a really rough time. Firstly, her brand was getting little to no recognition, and secondly, she was in a new area all by her lonesome for work. She just got here and she already felt so terribly alone: How was she going to make friends here?
After finally putting away the very last box of her stuff, she was exhausted, and decided to take a breather outside in her backyard. It was a nice, warm day, and the refreshing breeze would be just what the poor woman needed after having to put so much stuff away. Moving was never easy, especially with no companions in an area that was foreign for the time being.
She needed to keep her head up. This was a fresh new start for her, and she was surely going to find friends here.
However, the friends she expected to meet were not what she exactly had in mind…
When the tired fashion designer was enjoying the fresh air in her backyard, having lounged in her chair, she noticed something… peculiar in the bushes.
At first she had mistaken it for a chipmunk, but when she stared at it for a bit longer, she noticed that it was a hamster.
“What in the?…” She questioned, going to slowly get up from her chair to inch closer to the rodent. What was a hamster doing by its lonesome? Was it some kid’s pet that got loose?
Upon her getting closer, the hamster, which was silver with wisteria eyes, seemed to glare at her, letting out an aggressive sounding chitter, as it hid itself deeper within the foliage.
“Hey, come back! You shouldn’t be out here, little guy!” She called out to the creature, only for it to pop up from some leaves to stare at her, still holding that narrowed gaze on her. What was this hamster’s problem? She never knew a hamster could have such an attitude problem!
“I don’t know why you seem so feisty, but I can help you!” She told the hamster.
Upon her words, the bushes seemed to rustle again, with the furball then bringing something to her attention, that made her gasp in shock.
It was a trap… And a very feisty blond rabbit was gnawing at the cage, letting out all sorts of angry sounding squeaks.
As crazy as it seemed, it looked to her as if this intelligent hamster was trying to free the rabbit.
“Your rodent friend is trapped… How awful…” She frowned, leaning down to note how the hamster tried to pry the cage open with its tiny hands.
“I got you, little fella.” She smiled softly at the two rodents, with ease opening up the cage for the rabbit, who dashed as quickly as lightning upon being freed, while the other hamster stood behind to stand up and look up at her, it’s harsh look seeming to soften from the kind gesture she just did. It chattered softly to her, before scurrying off into the foliage.
To say this event was very bizarre would be an understatement, but she knew by the look of those two animals that they were no ordinary rodents. They seemed… different from the usual variety.
Besides that very odd occurrence, she spent the rest of her day as usual, thinking up ideas to bring to life in her clothing.
The very next day, the fashion designer would be in the middle of snacking when her doorbell would ring.
“Hm? A moment!” She called out, in a hurry to chew and swallow her snack before she rushed to the door. She was not expecting company. Perhaps it was the mailman?…
When she answered her door, a tall, slender man was there, holding a parcel in his hands, his face as cool as a winter’s day. He looked like what the manifestation of the very season would look like, and look at her, getting distracted by this attractive stranger! He was here for a reason, and she was pretty sure it was not to woo her! Not that she was imagining him doing that!
“Greetings. I have heard you just moved in. I am Kanetsugu Naoe, and I am one of your neighbors.” He told her in a rather formal fashion, going to bow his head as he held out the parcel. “This is a welcome to the neighbor gift. Take it.” He told her, as the woman took the parcel with a bright smile. This was such a sweet gesture on the part of her new handsome neighbor.
She then mentally told herself off. It was just a friendly gesture from a neighbor! Nothing more, nothing less, the fashion designer told herself, not wanting to make this awkward.
“T-Thank you.” She smiled, going to introduce herself to Kanetsugu as she put the package aside for the moment.
“So you are a fashion designer? It is quite unusual for fashion designers to choose to live outside the big cities.” He noted, before the tall man let out a soft sigh. “I admit… Coming here was just a pretext to also thank you for saving Ke- the rabbit.” He told her in a softer voice, which definitely caught her attention. So he knew the feisty rabbit.
“Well, you’re welcome, though how did you know?” She asked him curiously, causing him to grit his teeth. “I saw it. That rabbit is a very important resident, so thank you.” He told her, bowing his head once again, before he was quickly walking away.
She couldn’t help but snicker. A rabbit, an important resident? That was awfully cute, although…
Something strange was going on, the fashion designer just knew it. Just like Kanetsugu, those rodents weren’t ordinary. They had colorations she has never seen before, and the hamster seemed to have understood every word she was telling it.
Either she has a gift she was not aware about, or something unexplained was going on…
The very next day, while making breakfast, the groggy woman spotted the hamster on her windowsill, seeming to be staring at her making breakfast, before it was staring at one particular thing.
“Hm? What is it?” She questioned, going to follow the periwinkled gaze of the rodent, before gasping as she saw she had the fire way too high for her breakfast! “U-Uh, this is unusual for me.” She stammered at the rodent, feeling embarrassed at this display as she went to turn the fire down, while the rodent shook its head softly, and squeezed through the little opening of the window, scurrying over to the kitchen.
“H-Hey, wait a minute! We are not exactly on roommate terms here! You are not supposed to be in here!” She started to panic a bit, while the rodent paid her no mind, and started to scurry into the sink… Before starting to clean her dirty dishes from yesterday.
Beyond amazed at the rodent’s intelligence, the woman merely watched the hamster, with meticulous little hands, clean her dishes, before using its furry body to push and pull them to the rack, before it looked up at her, and started to softly chatter.
It was like the hamster was scolding her for her lack of cleanliness.
“H-Hey, I had a long day yesterday!” She excused herself, which only made the hamster scold her more with soft chatters.
“Who is your owner, anyway? There is no way you are a wild hamster. I do not think wild hamsters are even a thing…” The lady looked on with suspicion, going to slowly place her hand over the hamster’s head, which made it stiffen. “Are you the neighbor’s?… Kanetsugu, was it?…” She hummed, as the hamster seemed to have completely froze up, as if trying not to draw anymore attention to itself.
It melted completely when feeling her soft hand starting to pet its fluffy head. Her touch was warm and comforting…
It almost felt wrong to enjoy being treated like this when this was a curse that happened to him… That happened to Kanetsugu every other day.
After enjoying her petting for a bit too long, he then suddenly darted back out the window, plopping his furball self through the small space and back into the foliage. The less she knew about him, in either form, the better they all would be.
The very next day, the fashion designer decided to take it upon herself to learn more about this strange neighborhood and their intelligent rodent problem. Kanetsugu claimed to have seen her free the rabbit, which meant that his property had to be within eyesight of it, and there was only one house that could have gotten such a good view of the event.
From the welcome gift that Kanetsugu gave her, which consisted of some decorations for her house as well as some books for light reading, there was his business card with his number. Curious, she decided to give him a ring, wondering if he would pick up. She had a few questions to ask him, so if it was possible, she was thinking of setting up some time where they can just have a nice, neighborly conversation about the rodents. After all, one of them was an important resident, according to him.
“Kanetsugu Naoe at your service. What do you need?” He immediately answered, which made her squeak neevously. Maybe this was better planned out in her head than in actual execution, like a lot of her fashion pieces… She was going through a dry spell, and this happened to every artist!
“Hello?” Kanetsugu answered again, which made her clear her throat as she tried again to answer him back. “Y-Yes, it’s me, your new neighbor. If you have time, I’d like to talk with you about… the hamster and the rabbit.” She told him in almost a whisper, her nerves now getting to her. Yes, this was way better planned out in her head.
After a pause, Kanetsugu finally responded back to her. “Alright. You can come over after I am done here. My house is the one right next door, the one with the lamp.” He told her, before continuing. “Is there anything else that you need?” He asked.
“No, that’s all. Bye!” She answered, before promptly hanging up. That took far more courage than she had anticipated… And the plan was slightly flipped now. Instead of him coming to her house, she was coming to his!
She had to remind herself that they would just be having a casually conversation. It wasn’t like he was going to flirt with her or anything, he didn’t seem like the type to do that.
Later on, the two met on Kanetsugu’s porch to discuss the rodents.
“So, you told me that the rabbit was an important resident…” The fashion designer began, to which Kanetsugu nodded. “He is. That rabbit is… he belongs to my boss.” Kanetsugu told her, seeming to be very careful with how he tells her this.
After all, if someone else outside of his personal circle found out about the curse that affected all of them, Kenshin had made it clear that he would kill them, no questions asked.
“I see… And the hamster?“ She questioned, to which he stiffened with a grimace. “He’s… mine. He likes to hide around a lot, so you probably wouldn’t see him much.” He told her, to which she looked at him with a smile.
“So, you taught your hamster how to clean dishes? You must be quite the owner.” She giggled softly, which made him frown. “Cleanliness is the next thing to godliness. Of course my hamster knows how to maintain his hygiene.”
“But I never knew hamsters were capable of so much.” She grinned, before another question appeared in her head.
“When I first saw your hamster, he was trying to help your boss’ rabbit out of a cage. Do we have hunters around here?“ She asked, to which Kanetsugu scoffed. “You could say that…” He murmured, not meeting her in the eyes.
“Hunters”, or rather their mutual friend, Sasuke, who set out a whole course for Kenshin to keep fit with since the man loved to train. On that particular day, Kenshin missed the hidden trap, and got caught in it. She just so happened to catch them at the wrong time.
Now that she was well aware of the hamster’s existence, he thought he might as well get her used to his presence.
But I’m not sure who to write first or if the inspiration will last for everyone. I’m thinking to write cute, fluffy pieces, so I’m asking you, lovely princesses, who I should write first?

Nicknames the IkeSen Guys Would Call MC the most from a few of my favorites:
Will say “Ma” in the most casual and deepest voice ever. Could say it in passing or when trying to spark something: Motonari, Masamune, Kenshin, Ieyasu, Kanetsugu
Will say “Mami” with a playful, flirtatious tone that can border casual if you don’t know better at the moment; beware: Nobunaga, Mitsuhide, Shingen, Keiji, Yukimura
Will say “Princessa” in the most sweetest, purest way, like they’re a fairytale prince, and you’re the fairytale princess: Mitsunari, Ranmaru, Hideyoshi
Will say “Señora” in the most respectful way, treating you like a mature, high-class woman they wish to court: Kicho, Kennyo, Sasuke, Yoshimoto
So I was passively letting my playlist run, and I kid you not, a song played and I heard the following lyrics (This is how I can put it best into English):
“I’m not a misleading advertisement, in the bedroom I’m a bear”
Why did my mind immediately go to imagining Shingen, laying down all sexy in the bed, preferable shirtless, with some bear ears, saying: “How’d you like me, my beautiful goddess? As a teddy bear or a grizzly?”
For the task game, can i request Shingen with number 9?
You may, anon!
Task:
9. Train all day with MC as the spectator
When he got this task, Shingen was chuckling softly to himself, his gray eyes immediately going to look at the Oda Princess, who averted her gaze at his attention. She had to watch him train all day… Be still her heart. May she not pass out from overexposure to Shingen’s ultra-fineness.
Usually when he would train, it would be to stop Kenshin from attacking Sasuke and Yukimura, so this was a much needed change of pace. Plus, he could be as much of a braggart as he wants, going to flex his muscles the princess’ way, give her winks, anything to keep her blushing and giggling from his unorthodox way of training.
Shingen would find himself setting off all sorts of personal records in his training just because of the princess’ presence and his strong desire to impress her.
Halfway, he would get the idea to incorporate the princess into his training, going to pick her up and lift her body with two hands, before switching to one hand, and then placing her on his broad shoulders for “strength training”, and totally not because he wanted an excuse to give her a piggyback ride.
This had to be the most fun day of training Shingen ever had.
Otome game! Tag someone whose tier list you want to see!
This is the most complete one I've found. They included 8 Cybird games: Destined to Love, Midnight Cinderella, Ikemen Sengoku (missing Keiji and Kanetsugu), Ikemen Live, Ikemen Revolution, Ikemen Genjiden, Ikemen Vampire, and Ikemen Prince. I think it's missing only the 3 new princes, Kanetsugu, and Keiji.
Tier List for 8 Cybird Ikemen Series Titles (Midnight Cinderella + Destined to Love + Ikemen Sengoku + Ikemen Revolution + Ikemen Vampire +
Here is mine, as of January 2023 -
:readmore:
💚 So far no one has been able to unthrone Sasuke. Everything about him is perfect for me. His supportive nature, humor, genius intellect, kindness, scientific bent, curiosity, bravery, sweetness, reliability, open-mindedness, understanding nature, resourcefulness, resiliency, loyalty, glasses, and .... he looks equally hot in his lab coat as in his ninja garb.
🩵 If Tears of Themis was included in this tiermaker, Artem Wing would firmly be in "Top Love Interests". WHERE he would fall in the ranking order is less certain, though. This entire section is in constant rotation of who is where, based on my mood swings or hormone horniness at any given moment.
💙 Again, if ToT was included, Vyn Richter would fit here. If I could have added Kanetsugu, he'd be here for certain (I'll wait for his route before I decide to bump him up to the turquoise tier).
💜 I hold strong feelings and connections to these guys, but I simply can't see them as potential lovers. I adore them, I would donate an organ for them, I would spend hours/days/years with them.
🩷 Oof, this category HAD to be made specifically for Mitsuhide. And then I ended up adding a few more curiosities to the collection. These are the mad lads whose stories I NEED to read because I'm so very very intrigued by them and I love how they are written. But there isn't a shred of sexual or physical attraction existing for me (okay...maybe a shred for Seth. And maybe maybe for Mitsuhide). If I could have added Keiji and the new characters from Ikemen Prince, Keith and Gilbert, this would be the best category for them.
❤ This category...? Um, I needed a place to put the dudes who are HAWT🔥 but I think are toxic or crass or just not my cup of tea. If other otome games were included in this list, I would definitely put Soichiro from "7 Hotties All My Husbands" and Rei Shindo from "Several Shades of Sadism". Takasugi would scratch a very particular itch I have if only he wasn't such an uncommunicative jerk! Faust with his glasses, stern expression, scientific curiosity, and high standards is SO MY TYPE, but the game developers decided to have him pretend to be a priest (masquerading as clergy or religious vocation is a squick for me). Those are just a few examples of men who are in that category of "you're so yummy, but you'll give me an upset stomach, so I have to control myself."
Can I request for Nobunaga with 1 please? Also can I ask more than once?
@oda-princess, sure! Thanks for the ask!
Task:
Be nice with the person they hate the most for a day
When Nobunaga received this task, his expression immediately turned cold. Due to his turbulent upbringing, Nobunaga learned quickly to not take many things to heart, since it just ended up hurting him or stabbing him in the back later on. Life wasn’t black and white, and he understood that very well.
As a result, he usually didn’t think much of the people who despised him, since he knew they had their own reasons. However, there was one individual that he perceived in a rather poor light: Kicho.
Having to be nice to the one who used to be a good friend of his was not something he was going to take well. After all, Kicho was like a brother to him. For him to one day disappear and come back to attack him and his ambitions was nothing short of despicable. Kicho’s blatant disregard and indifference to the friendship he had with Nobunaga and the rest of the Oda Forces had him especially loathe him.
Nobunaga’s way of playing nice to abide by the task was simply not saying a word to Kicho. Not speaking to him was as nice as Nobunaga was going to get with Kicho. He didn’t deserve his words, and he definitely didn’t deserve the friendship they shared in the past. In his eyes, Kicho was an absolute disgrace.
Okay, I've been thinking about my next one...and number 2 with Hideyoshi, meaning he has to be mean to Nobunaga!!
@writingwhimsey, heheheh, this is gonna be good.
Task:
2. Be mean with the person they get along with the most for a day
Upon receiving this task, Hideyoshi felt as if he was being sentenced to be executed. He had to be mean… to the one who saved his life. The one who gave him purpose and a reason when he was so lost.
In Hideyoshi’s eyes, Nobunaga was akin to a merciful god. To be rude to him after all he has done for him… It was to him the biggest sin a person could ever commit.
Nobunaga, however, did not view it that way. He viewed it as an opportunity to watch his poor Right Hand squirm in agony as he tried in vain to fulfill the task he was given. To say the Devil King had a dark sense of humor would be an understatement.
“Lord Nobunaga… You are… terrible! Like sugar candies are for your teeth!” Hideyoshi stammered out, looking in absolute misery while Nobunaga was beyond amused. “Stupid monkey, you are not even trying to be convincing. When you are given a task, you must fulfill it to the best of your ability.” He would smirk, all the while Hideyoshi continued to suffer with this next to impossible task.
When the day would be over, Hideyoshi would apologize profusely to Nobunaga, which made him roll his eyes in response. He was no hero. The person that Hideyoshi is today was all his own doing. Nobunaga merely gave him the tools to become that kind of person.
For the ask game, can i request Mitsuhide with number 6 or number 9 please?
@houseoftitans, sure, thanks for the ask!
Task:
9. Train all day with MC as the spectator
When Mitsuhide received this task, he was chuckling to himself. This was the perfect task for him. He would be able to tease the little mouse and show off his skills to her all at the same time.
“You have been staring quite intently at me, little one. You haven’t fallen for me, have you?” Mitsuhide smirked his usual foxy grin at her, having been practicing his aim while teasing her all day. Halfway, he decided to be more creative with his targets, like taking aim at a dummy, or at some vase that earned him a scolding for destroying it. He had to change it up with the little Oda Princess having to watch him all day.
She would question at times if all the teasing and stunts he was pulling was necessary.
“Absolutely. In the presence of your company, I have to keep you entertained. After all, you have been looking at me with such intrigue the entire day. I truly believe you have fallen for me, little mouse.” He would snicker, where earned him a cute squeak and blush from her.
Usually his days were quite mundane, so this task was a very good change of pace for him. When the day was over, it would back to his usual business.
