Anonymous 2022/04/22 (Fri) 07:36 No. 16484 ▼ Starting to write a small short but I got a problem.
See the short will be about some dumb smoe falling in love at first sight with a youkai. Problem is, a youkai's a youkai but THIS youkai will definitely eat or kill a human if given the opportunity.
But the protag's too lovestruck to see the danger in it and so their view of the interaction would be something like.
"I decided to try and visit her again in the middle of the night during a full moon. It's light shining through the woods just gives an romantic atmosphere and I'm certain my love will be happy to see me."
And
"She didn't say anything when we met for the first time but her sudden gaze into my eyes showed such an intense hunger that I just knew she was into me too."
And.
"Finally I saw her again, the girl of my dreams. She was covered in some tomato sauce and a person under her was pretending to be dead, knowing we wanted some privacy (What a great guy!). Seeing this opportunity, I approached her with firm steps.
She didn't say a word as watched me approach, her gaze once again made my heart skip a beat and I was sweating profusely too. Aah, the love-filled air made it hard to breathe, it was like someone was choking me.
Oh wait, she is choking me. I guess that's her kink, the shy ones are always the craziest."
You can guess the tone of the story by now.
That said here's the problem: I'm not too sure which youkai to make it about.
I know Rumia or Medicine would be a good 'This person will definitely kill humans' contender but...they're a bit too child-like in appearance and I'm not comfy with that.
Then my second thought became Mystia, she's a pretty birdy that sings too so it'd make sense buuuuut I'd feel she would simply rip off the person or something like that for a long-term benefit rather than an easy meal so that's not gonna work either.
So I'm not sure about which youkai it would be about and that's a big deal since that prevents me from finishing the story.
So I'm going to
