Ruikasa Oneshots 💫

If You Can Love Me

ART CREDS!!: @_6plus1 on Twitter ^^

The art is 2 parts so I think it goes well with a part 1 and 2 for this.

Since pandemonium is so soon, i wanted to write a little yokai ruikasa thing 😁😁
To those of you pulling/tiering, GOOD LUCK ‼️

Vocab if you need it err
Yōkai - a japanese spirit/demon
Obake - a yokai that can shape shift (sometimes translated to "monster" or "ghost")
Kitsune - a "trickster" fox, known for deceiving or stealing
Tanuki - a raccoon dog
Kasa-obake - a type of obake that commonly takes the form of an umbrella

Can i just say i love that so much. Like in the set tsukasas holding umbrellas... Like a reference to kasaobakes and his name... His name is tsukasa... Kasa... Umbrella...

Another rant at the end

This episode will be fluff

Rui POV

During the course of my many years, I came to terms with who I was. What I was. When you're seen as some otherworldly being, you're either praised or put down constantly for it. I was, more often than not, the latter.

I didn't mind at all! If anything, it made me feel more satisfied after I successfully pulled off a stunt. There weren't many of my acquaintances that also did what I did, but some put up with it.

There was another yōkai, one that I was admittedly close to. He was softspoken, stubborn, and excitable all at once. Though, I would be shown his insanely strict side more than his others.

He was quiet and thought logically, the type to follow his brain rather than his heart.

Yet, every night, he comforted me.

I wasn't sure why he did it. Maybe he thought I was lonely and needed help, or maybe he was the lonely one. Maybe he provided a caring aid for me because I was the only person he could get.

That being, Tenma Tsukasa, was an intriguing case. All I wanted to do was crack him and see those luxurious secrets that were closed off from the world, but I never came close.

As a yōkai, I had no real care about feelings or sappy thoughts as a human may. However, I found myself straying from my natural instincts much more than I should've been every day. Maybe it's his fault.

I blinked up at Tsukasa, who was standing above me, showing a barely noticeable frown. He was holding that damn umbrella as always, but this time he finally had a use for it. There was a heavy sprinkle, which had already gotten me damp.

"You're getting soaked. Do you have any care for your comfort?" He asked me, posing with an intimidating tone.

I smirked as I looked into his eyes. I was surprised to get a tiny smile in return. "No, not really. However, if you want to give me some coverage, I won't deny it."

Tsukasa let out an unimpressed huff and kneeled down beside me. His gaze was soft and surprisingly playful, which I was incredibly happy to see. His rough umbrella was actually working. I was cold, but less uncomfortable.

"What did you do today? I saw some commotion in the town," he glanced at me suspiciously, "was it you?"

Tsukasa was someone I found to be odd. He claimed to have little pleasure in disrupting humans, and instead opted to enjoy life calmly. However, I did occasionally find him watching the humans.

It was like a hobby for him. Still, he never bothered to go in a town. No matter how hard I tried to convince him.

"I'm always the cause of their misfortune, hm? I was just having fun~" I replied slickly.
