Yato shuffles around to the back of his aunt's TV, pausing to peek out at her from behind it like maybe she might notice him after all. But when she doesn't seem to (he'd feel sadder about it if he weren't a man on a mission), he keeps on going to approach her from the other side and take like half her strawberries and jam them all in his mouth at once.
Cheeks stuffed, he shoots a super serious victory sign at Mafuyu from across his aunt/her mom. HE DID IT. ]
No way, because when Mafuyu tip-toes into the room, she barely gets a foot across the doorway when her mother picks up the pillow next to her and chucks it at Mafuyu's face. ]
—MOM. [ She shakes it off and charges forward unperturbed, jumping onto the foot of the bed and standing there, blocking the screen and staring down at her mother and Yato on the other side. ] Didn't you see Yaboku?
[ "...Yaboku who?" That's genuine confusion on her mother's face.
[ ... That was harsh, Auntie. Yato's chin stiffens, and then he scoops up the rest of her strawberries too. If he's her imaginary nephew, then she can enjoy her imaginary strawberries.
He's being way petty now, but he doesn't care. He's allowed to vent a little.
He makes his way out of the room, crossing and still evading his aunt's line of sight along the way. He'll meet Mafuyu in the hallway with his stolen fruit. ]
[ For a while, Mafuyu doesn't more from her spot on the bed. She didn't think her mother is the sort of person who would make that sort of joke, but more than that, her mother would definitely notice an entire bowl of strawberries missing, and before her mother can pin that on her, Mafuyu hops out of the room and doesn't pause as she grabs Yato by the wrist to drag him back downstairs so they can talk out of earshot. ]
Gimme some.
[ That's a useful power you have there, Yato, pettiness aside. ]
[ He wants to be on her wall!! He'll be on everyone's wall if they want him to be... Also they're family so why wouldn't she have a picture of him around the house! ]
It's got to be something fancy! Like velvet and gold and- and swords in the background!
[ We're going full-on medieval here, the only large portrait that immediately comes to mind for her/me is that one of Louis XIV in history textbooks, at least she got something out of going to school. ]
[ Chances are she'll forget about him first. And that thought makes him bend to scoop her into a big hug that she's getting no matter what, even if she fights and punches. ]
[ Mafuyu yelps at the hug and does indeed struggle out of surprise but
did you know, this is the first proper hug she's received in two and a half months in the game, anya was going to have the honor but mafuyu... dodged her hug... ]

Hey Auntie.
Yato shuffles around to the back of his aunt's TV, pausing to peek out at her from behind it like maybe she might notice him after all. But when she doesn't seem to (he'd feel sadder about it if he weren't a man on a mission), he keeps on going to approach her from the other side and take like half her strawberries and jam them all in his mouth at once.

Convinced? [ and he'll just jump right in now HERE GOES ] I guess I'm a god, so people don't see me the same way.
no subject
God, huh? If you bring me strawberries every day, I'll worship you.
no subject
Don't try to take advantage of me, brat. I don't need you to worship me. I just need you to...
[ He trails off. Whoops, he almost said something embarrassing. ]
no subject
To what? Hang a picture of you on the wall and pray for your happiness?
[ That's not worshiping, that's mourning the dead. ]

You wanna? I'll get a portrait done.

Yeah, I'll do it! But I get to be in the picture too!
no subject

Okay! I'm gonna get the best frame! It'll be the picture to end all pictures!
no subject
[ HE'D BETTER maybe it'll help her remember too, instead of wandering by her living room and wondering wtf is that picture
but yes, a large ornate golden frame with a life-sized picture of her and Yato, it'll go right above the mantlepiece ]

WHY DOES EVERYONE SLAM TRACKSUITS SO MUCH. But Yato is okay with fancy. He can do fancy. ]
... Fine! I can probably find some outfits to borrow.
[ Like from a theatre group or something. He'll return it ok. ]
I call dibs on being the king!

If you're king, I get to be the god raining hellfire from above!

Yato holds on tight! And clings to her like a kid trying to hug all of a giant teddy bear. How can he be sad when he has his favorite cousin? ]
You've grown up so much, but you're still so travel sized! But it also means you'll always be my baby cousin. ❤

And you're a smelly old man- let go, Yaboku! I need to step on your face!

Not until you give me a hug too! It's what people do when they care about each other!
