Note: This is a Hanahaki AU where Yakko is the one with the disease
*It was just a normal day for Yakko, he and his sibs were causing trouble as always and running from Ralph and the doctor who were trying to catch them again. Yakko was running on his own as him and his other zany siblings, Wakko and Dot, had decided to "scatter" and had split up. As Yakko was running he stumbled into an unfamiliar neighborhood, it was a nice one with every house looking about 2-stories high, Yakko at this moment had slowed down and started walking around to take in the whole vibe and appearance of the neighborhood. As the young warner was exploring he heard yelling and laughing coming from nearby and decided to investigate. As Yakko approached the scene, he saw a young anthropomorphic dog toon that looked around the same age as himself. The toon was wearing a red sweater and blue denim jeans, and was currently yelling at a more rounded toon dog that was simply laughing at the one in the red sweater. Yakko blushed a bit, "now," he thought, "why don't I go say hello to this 'skater'" This so called "skater" was Max Goof, son of Goofy Goof, and he was yelling at PJ and Bobbie for messing up his skating by talking about Roxanne when all of a sudden a "Hello Skater!~" came from behind him. Yakko rushed up and jumped into Max's arms, "I don't think I've ever seen a guy like you in my life" Max slightly blushed at this before getting a kiss on the cheek by the slightly shorter toon. "Oh and by the way, I'm Yakko Warner!" Said the warner toon before dashing off. Max was simply at a loss of words before realizing his skateboard, which he was holding onto, had been stolen by the warner. Max stammered for a bit before yelling "GET BACK HERE" only to receive a bundle of laughter a couple feet away, and the sound of a person hopping on a skateboard and passing off.*
This was four months ago. Four months ago Yakko and Max had met, the week after that was when they formally introduced themselves, a couple weeks after that was when Yakko introduced his younger siblings (Wakko and Dot) to Max. Finally, it was two weeks ago that Max had introduced Yakko to his new girlfriend, Mona. Yakko didn't like Mona but he was fine with it, as long as Max was happy.
Now in the bathroom, Yakko was throwing up more and more as the days went by, yet this wasn't normal. Yakko was throwing up flowers, along with bodily fluids and blood, this had happened coincidentally a couple days after Max and Mona got together. Yakko didn't think anything of it tho, he was more focused on his health then anything at the moment. When Yakko had finished his routinely bloody throwing up, he cleaned up the flowers and blood and flushed the toilet. "*Eugh*" he thought, "*Tragic yet somehow beautiful I guess*" Yakko excited the bathroom only to be met with "Yakko! You were in there forever!" By Dot, "What do you even do in there anyways?" Yakko just shrugged her off, "Stuff" Yakko started getting his jacket on, today he'd go to the doctors to talk about this disease. Wakko climbed onto Yakkos back, "Hmm, you've got your fancy jacket on. . .where's yous going anyways?" Dot also climbed onto Yakkos back, "Yeah? You's going somewhere or what?" Yakko grabbed the two and set them down, "I'm going out for quick errand and before you ask, no I'm not taking you two with me this time. Its a personal errand I have to do" The two younger groaned "Oh like you have anything to do" Wakko complained, "Yeah!" Exclaimed Dot, "What is you's gonna do anyways? Get a gift for that boyfriend of ya's?" Yakko blushed a bit before grabbing Wakko and Dot by the piece of fur by their necks and putting them down. "No, I just have something I need to do, and I can't have you two causing chaos" Wakko crossed his arms and huffed, Dot rolled her eyes and sighed, "Fine." She said, "But you're doing chores on our days" Yakko just sighed as he put his finished zipping up his jacket and grabbing his wallet, "Alright, I'm leaving now. Don't get into any *big* trouble alright? If you need anything just dig in the ballpit" Wakko and Dot did a salute with a "Alright!" In unison. Yakko smiled, opened the door of the water tower and headed out.
As Yakko went into the doctors office, he sat down in one of the chairs in the waiting room and waited until a nurse came out, "Yakko Warner? The doctor is ready to see you" Yakko got up and walked next to the nurse, "Hello nurse!~" Yakko exclaimed. The nurse simply rolled her eyes as she smiled, "Just follow me" So Yakko did. The nurse led him to an office that looked pretty much like an ordinary doctors office. Yakko sat down in one if the chairs, "Alright, you just wait right there and the doctor will come see you" Yakko nodded and waited. After what seemed like forever, the foor of the office finally opened to reveal a dark skinned doctor with shaved black hair and the usual doctors outfit. "Hello there Yakko" He said. "Hello Doctor" Answered Yakko. The doctor sat in a chair and pulled out a clipboard, "Now, let's see. You scheduled an appointment with me because you've had complaints about irregular throwing up?" Yakko nodded, "Yeah, but it was more of irregular throwing up flowers, blood, and other bodily fluids on an unhealthy basis" The doctor was nodding and taking notes while humming a continues hmm tune when one is thinking. "Hmm, okay" The doctor finally said, "You have an uncommon disease known as HanaHaki. It happens when one is experiencing unrequited love. Its very cliché I know, but the person who first created it thought it was romantic so yeah, and yes I broke the fourth wall, you're welcome" Yakko just sighed, "Okay yeah, its cliché but is there a cure? Like something to make it go away? Cos I don't want my sibs finding out, they're good at catching onto stuff" The doctor tapped got pen against his chin, "Well, there are three" Yakko imidiently shot up and grabbed the doctor by the shirt, "Well tell me what they are!" He demanded. The doctor pushed Yakko off and checked his notes, "The first one is through a simple confession of love to the one who caused you to have this disease, simple but if it doesn't work then it'll have two outcomes" The doctor checked the notes again before continuing, "The second one is to not love the person anymore, sounds simple but is hard to do. Finally, there's the third one. Its one of the two most common outcomes of the first one, this third one tho is surgery." Yakko gulped at the word surgery, it gave him memories to when Wakko had tried affording for Dots surgery. The doctor continued anyways, "In the surgery we take out all of the flower systems and any loose petals or seeds. This however isn't a very common route since there are dangers to it." Yakko nodded and put a mental note to put surgery as a last resort on ways to get rid of this illness. The doctor adjusted his glasses, "The second outcome of the first one is dangerously more common, its where the individual with HanaHaki is slowly choked to death by the flower systems in their body. This results from fear of surgery and not wanting to let go of the love they have for the person who caused the Hanahaki" Yakko felt as if he was about to faint, he could imagine it already, him confessing to someone and in turn not only getting rejected, but also dying because of a literal broken heart. There was something that Yakko didn't know tho, and it was who caused him to have Hanahaki. "So uh, doc." Yakko stated, "Thing is, I don't exactly know who caused me to have this, weird death by flowers disease. " The doctor looked at Yakko with an intimidating yet calm stare, "Well," he calmly started, "Who causes butterflies in your stomach?"
