I Loove How Teru's Practically Elbowing Kako Here Sdjskslsl That's What You Get

can you guys tell that i like koukane a normal amount hahaha

Akane -> ? Event Epilogue

Akane treks down the path, grumbling as he pushes against the low branches. Jeez, when was the last time the gardener maintained these plants, surely the president knew about this... unless that guy purposely left it there to annoy him! Why else would that asshole leave these stupid branches this low... Tch, Akane is 100% making sure that guy never touches his very tasty, made with care, takoyaki.

As he reaches the front door of the Minamoto house, Akane hears a faint crash in the background. Jesus, never one boring day here. He moves his hand to knock on the door when it suddenly opens, with Tiara barreling out with a smile on her face. She bumps into Akane, making him nearly trip over the stairs if it weren't for someone grabbing his arm. Thank god, he was worried the food was going to get smashed.

"Thanks Minamoto-kouhai, you got quick reflexes," Akane lets out a relived sigh as he straightens himself up. Kou nods but seems more prioritized in scolding Tiara than whatever Akane just said. Whatever, at least the food is still okay. He watches them for a few moments before heading inside.

Akane walks down the hallways towards the dining room, making sure walk really loudly as he walks past you know who's room. That's for being an asshole. Well, maybe he's the asshole for makin all this noise... but who gives a crap, it's the president we're talking about, when has that dude ever been a good person.

He reaches the dining room and places his food bag on the table. He sets up the table, grabbing the bowls and utensils from the drawers he long memorized from his multiple visits. Akane places everything down neatly, making sure nothing looks horrendously out of place.

As Akane checks the angle of Kou's bowl for the millionth time, said guy walks in with an energetic girl bouncing around the house like it's nobody's business. You know what, good for her.

"Hey Aoi-senpai, thanks so much for setting up the table, seriously. And you also made dinner too, so I'm really grateful..." Kou looks like he's about to sob... jeez, he really must be thankful.

"It's no big deal, it gave me an excuse to test out your recipe!" Akane grins as he pulls out the chair for Tiara, who gives him a hug before sitting down. "This test round went really well, I can't wait to make this for Ao-chan!!"

Haha, this was definitely for Ao-chan, after all, he wouldn't do this just for anyone else haha... Kou snickers as he sits besides Tiara, "I should've guessed. Well, did it go well?"

"See for yourself," Akane proudly opens the box, showing off the perfectly round takoyakis, the color a crisp tan that could make anyone's mouth water. "The world's most perfect takoyakis, if I do say so myself!"

"Woah...." Both Minamoto's eyes were as big as the takoyakis, filled to the brim with amazement. Akane grins, feeling warm all over. He really likes this feeling, maybe he should keep making them food.

"Thanks for the food!" They both exclaim before digging straight in. Akane also made some other things, like shrimp stir-fry and some rice, but he was mostly proud of his takoyakis, so he didn't really care to brag about the side dishes. Hey, he made the food, he gets to pick favorites. Plus, he knows they're good, Ao-chan loves them!

Everyone was eating really well, which made Akane really happy honestly. He's glad they like his food, otherwise he probably would've died right then and there if they hated it. Especially if Kou hated it, because Kou is the best cook he knows right now. If Kou didn't like his food, he would disappear off the planet.

Tiara finished first, eating really fast in a concerning way. Akane was a bit amazed she didn't choke on her food... she should really eat slower... Kou seemed to try to get her to eat slower but gave up half way. Kou's a good big brother, Akane admires that about the younger guy... it reminds him about Mirai's gluttonous appetite... but with no manners at all! Tiara thanked Akane and gave him another hug before rushing out the room, showing very good manners unlike a certain clock keeper...

Kou sighs as he watches his sister run out the room. "Sorry, she can be a bit impatient..."

"It's okay, I'm just glad she likes my food," Akane pushes her chair back in, feeling all warm and fuzzy from this atmosphere. Seriously, maybe he should make these guys more food, this feeling is great. He reached out to eat another one of his fantastic takoyakis, but it seemed like Kou also really liked his takoyakis, since he too was reaching for one... and unfortunately for them, there was only one left.

Aw man... it's okay, he could just make more next time. Just when he was about to let Kou have them, Kou took it and offered it to him. Akane blinks but shrugs. Hey, if Kou didn't want it, he'll take it!

It was really good, he should make this for Ao-chan next time! And also make more for the Minamotos, since they really loves his food (and not because he's in denial about his feelings for a certain someone haha that's so funny).

Thank you everyone for participating!! The next month's character is Kou!! The form will be up tomorrow (when I wake up lol) so stay tuned for that!!

Card Set Hanakotoba

Recently I was discussing with my lovely friend @istoleyourboat about the meanings behind the flowers in this new card set, and I felt the urge to chronicle them somewhere! I thought you guys might get a kick out of it, too, so this seemed as good a place as any to put it.

So without further ado...

1. Hanako-kun - Queen of the Night

The Queen of the Night (月下美人) is a cactus flower that blooms just once a year for a single night. Because of this, the most heavily associated meanings with the flower are "transient beauty", "fleeting love," and "the urge to see someone just once."

The short-lived life of this flower feels quite fitting for our ghosty boy! I also like how the flower looks both beautiful and unsettling...all around a fantastic choice by AidaIro.

2. Nene Yashiro - Strawberry Blossoms

If you have paid attention to the Hanakotoba in TBHK before, then Nene being associated with strawberries should be nothing new to you. Regardless, the prevalent Hanakotoba for Strawberry Blossoms (イチゴ) are "love," "innocence," and "you make me happy."

The "you make me happy" one makes me want to kick my feet around and squeal a little. Isn't that cute!? I also feel the strawberry is especially fitting for Nene because it seems like something she would grow in her Gardening Club.

3. Kou - Clivia

Otherwise known by the names Bush Lily or Natal Lily, the Hanakotoba for Clivia (君子蘭) are "sincere," "noble" and "good-hearted."

I think this all fits very nicely with our resident good boy Kou, hm?

4. Teru - Bird of Paradise

The Bird of Paradise (ストレリチア) symbolizes "faithfulness," "magnificence," "a bright future" and "superficial love."

Even at a glance this flower really pops out at you, making it a great fit for the ever-impressive Teru. I really, really love this choice!!

5. Sakura - Hellebore

Otherwise known as the Christmas Rose, the Hellebore (クリスマスローズ) represents "reminiscence," "never forget me" and "notice my woes."

The way this beautiful flower seems to cast its head down makes it look almost sad. I suppose that's why it has such pitiful meanings associated with it!

6. Natsuhiko - King Protea

King Protea (キングプロテア), also known as the Sugarbush, symbolizes "strength," "courage," "resilience," and "a king's quality."

If you notice, Natsuhiko always has a little crown-shaped tuft hidden in his hair, so AidaIro associating Natsuhiko with a flower that references royalty pleases me. There's still a lot of mystery surrounding him, but we can at least confirm that Natsuhiko is, indeed, strong and resilient.

(Edit: the flower might be a crysanthemum (菊) instead! Crysanthemums represent the imperial family of Japan, so the association with royalty is still present. The red crysanthemum is a symbol of love.)

7. Akane - Ivy

The plain, non-flowering ivy stands out in stark contrast to the other plants here, but that's because the hanakotoba for it is just that good. Ivy (ヘデラ) means "everlasting love," "I take this feeling to the afterlife," "faithfulness", and "marriage."

Like, if that doesn't scream Akane, I don't know what does.

8. Aoi - Hydrangea

Again, if you've been paying attention to Hanakotoba in the series, this will not be the first time you've seen Aoi paired with hydrangea. Regardless, hydrangea (アジサイ) represents "enduring love," "mystique," and "fickleness."

The hydrangea is also associated with rejection, more specifically the coldness of a person who rejects the romantic advances of another. It's just such a perfect Aoi flower, there's no wonder AidaIro is so attached to it.

💐🌸🌼🌻🌷🌹🥀🌺

Thank you for reading till the end! And I urge you to look up these flowers yourself and see if you can find any meaning to them I may have missed. You might find something brilliant that I completely overlooked!

short break from scaralumi because i gave in my inner demons and made amane and tsukasa from the new timeline together being silly, i am now satisfied

i love ships give me ships and i will yap yayayay

iro thought ur au was so peak that killer nene should be canon

Serial killer nene au did not age well huh.....

The difference between the two "mitsukou comparing themselves to hananene" scenes is kinda funny actually

Cause on one hand we have Kou who technically didn't even bring up Mitsuba at all. No one brought up Mitsuba actually. The only explicit indication we get that this in any way relates to Mitsuba was a single panel of Kou thinking about him, and even then that was only after Nene's prompting

Then on the other hand we have Mitsuba. Who just. Brings up Kou. Straight up. Out of nowhere. Even tells Nene about their date night out to the aquarium. This mf really compared Kou to Nene in response to Nene saying she's kissed Hanako. I can't make this shit up
