Walk With Me

Author's Intro

Howdy. It's the Author. I wrote this story a few years ago to mirror a dream I had, and it evolved into a passionate love story that I couldn't even write on my school computer without heavy censoring XD However, I own my own computer now, so hopefully I can write what I really wanted to write.

Now, if y'all are new to my blog, this is a rewrite of my 2014 fanfiction To The End. Most of the plot points are the same, however they will be presented in a more easy to understand fashion, with better grammar. This fic will still take place after the last episode, but things ended differently. Haruhi ended up with Hikaru, after about a week of dating Tamaki. The break-up was mutual however, and all the hosts are happy (for now).

So, my thoughts have changed as I have thought about how I view Bisco Hatori's work, and I have changed how I view my ships. Tamaki and Kyoya have always had a deeprooted love and chemistry for/with each other, (as do Tamaki and Haruhi, but I prefer them as friends and ship Tamakyo more). My thoughts on Tamakyo haven't changed.

I also think Hikaru and Haruhi have insane chemistry as well, and like them together as a ship. I do not ship incest in the sense that I find the twinscest as presented in the show in anyway desirable. I don't want to see Hikaru and Kaoru kiss or fuck, but I don't hate people who do. It's just not what I like. However, I do like the relashionship that Hikaru and Kaoru have as twins, they know each other and care about each other in such a unique way that they have because of how well they know each other and how close they are because they grew up together. I think that simply implying they are brothers is not enough to describe how important they are to each other. Yes, I view Haruhi capable of loving Hikaru and like that relationship, but I like that with the implicit knowledge that Kaoru is a part of both of them, and would mean more to them and know them in a more intimate way. It reads to me as a sort of queerplatonic relationship? Where the three of them love each other and care about each other in a way unique to the three of them, but two of them are actively dating/having sex/being romnatic, because Hikaru and Kaoru do not harbor lustful love for each other. Then, moving onto Mori-senpai and Honey-senpai. I love Honey-senpai's canonical future partner, and don't mind that relationship at all. However, much like Hikaru and Kaoru, I believe Mori-senpai and Honey-senpai love each other deeply, but I perceive Mori-senpai as arosexual and acesexual. I believe the love he feels and the love he cherishes most is the love he has for his friends, and that Honey-senpai is the biggest example. I believe that Mori-senpai is the most affectionate he is capable of being with the hosts and Honey-senpai especially. So I view Honey-senpai as a sort of partner for him, not a romantic or sexual partner, but the closest thing to our understood concept of a boyfriend or girlfriend that Mori-senpai would ever want to have. So in a way, I ship Mori and Honey in that sense that their relationship is important to me.

I am not upset or offended if you don't like my #hot takes, if you perceive my ships as inherently romantic/sexual that is up to you. I'm a 21-year-old college student writing fan fiction of my favorite show from the 2000's, of which is a very small fandom. I also love this fandom so much! It's been so fun to read works and write my own, and I love the characters. I just kinda realized I never explained myself and thought I would now that I've given it a lot of thought!

tl;dr the UPDATED ships are -

Tamaki x Kyoya (My OTP and favorite sun/moon dynamic couple)

Hikaru x Haruhi x Kaoru (I do not label Kaoru's sexuality in the story but I perceive his love for Hikaru and Haruhi as inherently platonic but still intense and personal, so I view them more as a trio unit in this story)

Mori x Honey (Mori-senpai is an aroace king and Honey-senpai is his favorite person).

Also just to add, I thank the comments for informing me Tamaki's mom has a cannon illness! I knew she was sick, but I did not know she had lupus. Alas, hindsight is 20/20,  so for the sake of my story Tamaki's mothers illness is cancer instead of lupus.

END EDIT 1/14/23

Ships!

Tamakyo (Tamaki x Kyoya)

Hikaru x Haruhi (Hikaruhi?)

Mori x Honey (Haha that could be Money! Get it? Mori and Honey....Uh... I'll just stop)

Karou x I have no clue yet..... (It's actually just Karou this time, the old character Misani was scrapped).

DISCLAMER - As much as I'd love to, I do NOT own OHHC. Bisco Hatori is the original writer of the manga, I'm just writing horrible stories about the characters.
