Yamato's age: 30
"You goddamn idiot." Yamato laughed as she watched Momo dueling with Kinemon.
"I'm getting a lot better, aren't I Yamato??" Momo grinned widely at Yamato, and in that moment of distraction Kinemon tripped him over.
Yamato laughed again, but her mind strayed to Y/N. Even two years after he'd... disappeared, she thought of him all the time. Y/N could have trained Momo really well. Even though his strength came from Oden and Roger, he'd have been an amazing mentor like he'd been for Yamato.
Sometimes, the pain was too much for her to even think about him. But she'd survive it, she'd live through it. Sometimes Yamato forgot small details about Y/N. The exact shade of his hair, it was black, but sometimes hints of brown appeared. Yamato had also almost forgotten the exact colour of his eyes. If it was more dark brown, or hazel. Sometimes she'd see green flecks in his eyes. She remembered seeing them in Tooru's eyes, too.
But her questions would remain unanswered, and there was no way for her to talk to Y/N again like she wished.
And she was alright with that. She would cope with it.
But deep within, Yamato knew she'd never find another person like Y/N.
But she was fine with that, too.

"Hey Yamato, you've got something in your hair."
Yamato raised her brows as Momonosuke reached forward to pick something out of her hair.
"It's a sakura petal!" Momo's eyes widened as he looked up at the sakura trees. "No way! The gardeners got them blooming again."
Suddenly tears stung Yamato's eyes as she remembered when she and Y/N had sat on the roof and Y/N found a sakura petal. That petal was the reason Yamato stood by her decision to stay in Wano.
"The sakuras are blooming again." Yamato echoed, blinking tears from her eyes.
When those bloom... think of me, Yamato. So she thought of him, and let the tears fall. When the sakuras bloom again next year, she'd think of him again. But for now, Yamato would tuck Y/N into her heart. Into an impenetrable, hidden corner of her heart. And no one would hurt him again.
