[NAEGI YUUKO]

Hikako is so loveably quirky, akhgd.

yuuko&hikako

Tarot reading medium, meet reserved vampire hunter.

The thing that jumped out at me was that Hikako does kendo outside of school, and so does Yuuko (partially to help preserve the two vastly different parts of her lifestyle), so chances are these two would take classes together and chances are Hikako would notice that something isn't quite right about the blind quiet girl in school who instantly changes into a merciless fighter in kendo. So, since Hikako's got pretty good intuitions and Yuuko is so stressed and buried deep in the supernatural, I believe these two would be great confidants for each other. Yuuko, moreso, since she's actually actively hiding her hunter life.

I'm thinking it starts of with Hikako making some harmless, but curious comments about the strange vibes Yuuko gives off or doing a tarot reading for fun where the cards all pretty much say "death,. more death, some death sauce and a side order of misery. -and this causes Yuuko to break down and confide in Hikako because, hey, the girl seems nice enough and she's probably had to keep a secret or two right? From there on, Yuuko would come to Hikako for advice or ask her to consult ghosts and help her track down vampires.

Really, anything goes. Feel free to add/subtract/deny anything here.

hiroto&hikako

Hikako's family is involved with ghosts and Hiroto desperately wants to contact a ghost and is kind of obsessed with them. So, wacky awkward spiritual hyjinks? I think yes. ;')

Hiroto would be the one to approach Hikako first, having heard from the rumor mill she comes from a family of mediums, and will probably do so in his usually straight forward and derpy way. -and he'll ask her if she can contact the ghost of Oscar Meyers for him. (yes, the hot dog guy). -and then she can either refuse and he'll follow her around like a dog begging to be allowed to speak to ghosts or, if she says yes, then EVERYTHING GOES TO HELL.

-because for whatever reason, everything supernatural loves Hiroto and either wants to eat him or kidnap him. So, they could accidently open the flood gates for demons or poltergiest and have to deal with that?

I come up with really random plots. Feel free to smack me on the head, haha. /rolls away

[nari]

MY KOKORO DOKIDOKI'D WHEN I SAW THIS POST.

yuuko,, oh man, she is so precious and that sounds just sounds like a lot of fun. as much as hikako has been involved with the supernatural, vampires have never been on her radar—so, she might be a little curious and ask about actually going on a vampire hunt with naegi. and just. hikako has almost no sense of self-preservation and is really likely to do something wrong, though she'll insist that she'll be able to protect herself (quite badly).

and the whole confidants thing is just sweet, because yuuko looks like she needs one. ;w; not to mention, hikako has a few things she might want to get off her back too!

hiroto, i'm telling you that as soon as i saw "oscar meyers", i cracked the fuck up. fjhfdsldsfh

this sounds hilarious and perfect and i want this to happen, LET'S DO IT.

[YAMADA HIROTO]

yuuko&hikako

I'd be super happy if Hikako could join the "give yuuko confidence team" because she really needs it! -and nayuki, yukari and hikako all seem bent on helping her out.

Yuuko would be really reluctant to bring Hikako along since she kind of views the hunting as something that her family is meant to bear and no one else, she doesn't even like it when the gangs who are around when she hunts try and get involved despite their pact with her dad. But, if she's bent on going Yuuko will have a hard time refusing her. This could maybe lead to something heartfelt and cute when Yuuko has to save her from getting hurt and just bawls her eyes out for bringing her along.

hiroto&hikako

awwwww yeaaaah.
whenever you get back or feel less busy lemme know, i have no problem starting this whenever

[KASWALA AALEKH]

Aalekh & Hikako

So like Aalekh practically assumes everyone is friendly and nice and would automatically think your his friend. In ways he is the exact opposite of Hikako. I'm thinking Aalekh is the friend who takes her around and tries to get her pumped up to do everything. He's also pretty understanding and keeps his friends pretty close. So yeah like I'm sure Aalekh is the guy who takes her on adventures randomly.

[nari]

yuuko, awww yeee, jumping on the bandwagon might not sound too bad once hikako's gotten to know yuuko more.

since hikako kind of lacks that basic survival instinct called self preservation, she won't immediately see what is wrong with her accompanying yuuko until they're probably halfway through the hunt and by then it'll be too late to turn back LOL and awww a heartfelt kodak moment would be cute.

hiroto, SO I'M BACK AND SOMEWHAT READY TO ROLL

;w; if you want to start, i will reply asap!!!

aalekh, ping random adventures. that sounds wonderful and delicious and funfunfun. hikako might not exactly be the most enthusiastic, but she'll probably go along with anything as long as aalekh is willing to drag her baka-ass out there. and seriously any sort of adventure will do! treasure hunting, swamp people hunting, stud hunting.

anything (｀ε´)

[KASWALA AALEKH]

Aalekh & Hikako

So whenever Aalekh has an idea to do something fun he will just appear at her doorstep and drag her out. I feel like he would take her around and make her troll people with him.

[nari]

aalekh, trolling sounds perfeeeectoo. they can steal road signs and cause car accidents! or vandalize famous monuments on accident! i don't know! but hahahaaaa this sounds like it'll be a lot of fun <3

[KASWALA AALEKH]

[KASWALA AALEKH]

THREAD MADE

Hikako's going to somehow end up helping Aalekh troll feuding gambler's. Sound like fun?

[CHABATA HIMAWARI]

Even though they're not too much alike, I think these two would make pretty fun friends? Himawari's usually the type to jump the line past acquaintances and into friendship pretty readily, so long as she interacts with someone often enough and they're not a jerk. Since they're probably classmates, I can totally see that happening. *u* Even though Hikako's morbidity and bluntness (though Himawari suffers from the second trait herself) will probably leave Himawari uuuh a bit surprised at times? 8'D But whatever the case, I could imagine them as friends and all, if that's good? Feel free to change anything or whatevs!
