Please be aware of the user @/saintsugu also known as Ezra.
Past pseudonyms include (but are not limited to: @/aces_high
I never thought that I would have to create a post like this. In my near 12 years on the internet, I never thought I would have to write down the words I am about to type, especially about a fellow fanfic creator, one I used to enjoy before I found out about the type of person he really is. I apologise for the long post, however I want to make sure I am as thorough as possible so I can bring this person to justice.
Before opening the read more/ continuing with this post, please read the trigger warnings. This will deal with heavy topics, ones that make me sick to my stomach. I apologise for all of the censoring in this post as well.
TW: P*DOPHILIA, UNDER*GE, SEXUALIZATION OF EDS AND SH
I would just like to start off by saying how difficult this post is for me to write. I have had to take multiple breaks while typing this out. I have felt disgusted since I first saw the posts on his twitter. Like I need to take a shower and scrub myself clean, however, at the same time I feel like I cannot sit idly by while Ezra still has a platform.
The posts I have seen on his twitter, what he actively endorses is just disgusting and predatory in nature. I have done my best to censor them so as to not continue the spread of such material. As of the time of this post, his twitter is still public.
HIS TWITTER (X) IS CURRENTLY UNDER THE NAME @/ezr_ace
First, I’ll give evidence I have to prove that the twitter account stated above is in fact his. I was wary at first as well, however, I believe this evidence in fact proves that beyond reasonable doubt that the account is his.
The obvious reasoning is as follows: Ezra goes by the pseudonym Ezra currently, and has gone by the pseudonym Ace in the past. Both the twitter account and his tumblr state that he is 21. Both twitter and tumblr themes are the same in nature, featuring manga panels of Suguru edited in the same way.
If you’re familiar with Ezra at all, you would know that they are very close with another user, Flora, also known as @/fyogasm. Previously known as @/pussydrunkfyodor on tumblr. When going through the followers of this twitter account, I noticed someone by the name of Flora following him (one of about 34 followers), with the user @/floratumblr. This account had their tumblr linked in the bio of the profile, and it led straight to Flora’s tumblr. Screen recording is posted below:
UPDATE: since Ezra has been called out, Flora has unfollowed Ezra’s Twitter as well as deleted her account. I can only assume it is to try and dodge the backlash of being associated with him. Here are screenshots proving they are moots/ interacting with each other.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Note: I do not know what this means for the content of Flora’s character. All I can say for certain is that she is close friends with him (to the point they have each others numbers), and that she follows his Twitter. I did not dive deep into her Twitter before she deleted it. But I can say that I do believe she knew the content he was posting about, otherwise she wouldn’t have deleted her Twitter the second he was called out while remaining mutuals with him on tumblr.
UPDATE 1/19/24 1:50 pm: Since creating this post, Flora has reached out and stated that they have broken all contact with Ezra. They state that they are not frequently on twitter, and was completely unaware of the type of content he was posting on the account. They state that the content found on the account has made them feel sick and that they are no longer friends anymore.
Back to the main point, this only adds to the similarities listed above. A close mutual that he has been seen actively talking to on his tumblr also follows him on twitter, endorsing his behavior. This alone was too much for me to ignore. However, one final factor came into play that solidifies that user ezr_ace and user saintsugu are the same Ezra.
He not only posted to his tumblr about hateful anon messages, but also his twitter at the same time. Right after the messages were sent, he tweeted the following, as well as posted the following messages on his tumblr. Screenshots with time stamps posted below:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This for me, confirms that the two accounts are the same. There are simply too many coincidences for me to ignore. I feel that there is no argument about the validity of the accounts, as there are just too many similarities to ignore. Now, I can delve into what the post is really about. The content of the Twitter account.
P*DOPHILLIC ACTIONS AND UNDRE*GE CONTENT.
To put it simply, I was horrified when I first opened the profile to be greeted with Shotacon artwork. Full on artwork of an adult Toji a*saulting a child Gojo. In this artwork, Gojo looks as if he can be no older than 10. Most of the image is censored for obvious reasons, however, part of the screenshot appears in the video above as well. Proving that it cannot have been doctored in any way.
Tumblr media
As you can see, the post is tagged with tw sh*ta. For anyone unaware, the definition of Sh*ta is as follows: “Sh*ta is a term used in manga and anime fandoms to indicate sex involving an under*ge boy.” (Fanlore.org) Aka, CP.
It is disgusting to see someone who I once enjoyed, once trusted, interact with literal cp. Drawing or not, the effect of it is still massive. Viewing children (ANYONE UNDER*GE) in a sexual nature is harmful to everyone. It breaches past dark content into something horrible. Something dangerous.
I felt sick seeing someone be as brazen as to repost a picture of a child being a*saulted. To get off on it. It is p*dophilic. That is the only way it can be put.
Further on this, he has written smut of, in his words, “not necessarily under*ge” Suguru in highschool. There is a whole thread on it on his profile, however, I will not be showing it here. The screenshot below describes the nature of the whole post from his own words.
Tumblr media
When I first read “not necessarily under*ge”, my first and only question was literally, what the fuck does that mean? Either he is under*ge or not. There is not some fuzzy grey area coating the world between adults and children.
But sure, give him the benefit of the doubt. That does not excuse him liking multiple posts tagged with under*ge content. The most recent being less than an hour ago. Posts censored to the best of my ability below.
Tumblr media
These posts all point to the same thing. The disgusting, undeniable truth that this man is attracted to under*ge content. Content depicting minors in sexual scenarios. Content that no member of society should ever consume. He is a p*dophile. For viewing this content of his own accord. For liking it, for reblogging it. For creating it on his own. He is a disgusting person.
FOLLOWING MINORS.
Him interacting with content like that above, consuming it in any capacity at all makes him unsafe to be around. For anyone. Especially minors.
Even though his blog is 18+, even though he preaches that minors should stay away from his blog. He still found himself following a 16 year old. Becoming mutuals with them. The fact this person is 16 is clearly displayed on their blog as well (in their pinned post).
Screenshots shown below. The individual’s user is censored out as, once again, they are a minor and I don’t feel they should have to be wrapped up in this mess.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once again, Ezra is someone who preaches about minors staying out of adult spaces. Multiple times he has complained on his blog about minors following him and having to block them. You would think he does the same and would be more careful about curating his online spaces, however it he fails to do that.
I don’t believe this can be boiled down to a simple case of missing the age in their bio— this user has their age in their pinned post, as well as their about me. Along with the sexualisation of minors prevalent on his Twitter, it makes me extremely uncomfortable to know that he is following a minor in any capacity. I’m sure it would make anyone.
SEXUALIZING EDS AND SH.
To end the laundry list of posts on his twitter, we have him writing smut glorifying eds, as well as liking posts depicting sh in a sexual light. As always, screenshots are shown below, censored to the best of my ability.
Tumblr media
In the post listed above, Suguru is described in a way that is hard to stomach. While it is not nearly as bad as everything else stated above, I feel it is still necessary to include, especially because in this pairing he has often described and implied Suguru to be a minor. There is a line and he has crossed it several times, this is just another example of such. Serving as the cherry on top to further demonstrate his mindset.
Dark content and discussion of these subjects in fiction are not the problem. The disturbing part of this is that Ezra often uses these tropes within his min*r/adult sexual fantasies, and when paired with the sh*ta and under*ge content, leaves a very poor taste in the mouth. It comes across as not only a gross f*tishization, but a gross f*tishization of taking advantage of a minor that way.
A DISCUSSION ON THE LIMITS OF DARK CONTENT.
In this section, I feel that it is important to touch on how dark content plays into all of this. I’d like to expressly state that this is NOT a condemnation of dark content or its consumption.
Dark fiction and dark content are a fine line. It’s a fantastic tool for exploring taboos and emotions or experiences that aren’t often talked about openly. DC creates what is essentially a safe space for exploring things that are not typically done or seen in the real world, with the knowledge that writing or engaging with it does not necessarily mean condoning it. That being said, this callout post is NOT about being anti-dc. Dark content is a literary or artistic tool. Keeping all of this in mind, to actively engage with sh*ta content in which a character is depicted sexually not only as a minor, but as a child, and to be sexually aroused by that image is the definition of p*dophilia. Writing or drawing children and engaging with that content in a sexual capacity is p*dophilia and at the very least, has p*dophilic tendencies. This is not dark content, this is p*dophilia.
It is one thing to write or create dark fiction between adults for the purpose of gratification or exploration of social dynamics and it is entirely another to engage with art of a child engaging in sexual acts with an adult for (seemingly) the intent purpose of sexual gratification. Everyone draws their own line, but it is also important to acknowledge that there are some depictions of taboo subjects that border (if not fully step-into) harmful, p*dophilic content that perpetuates behavior and mental tendencies that truly are dangerous.
To engage with a drawing of a child and a full grown adult in sexual acts for the purpose of sexual gratification is incredibly fucked up. And the fact that minor and adult p*rnography are not just common, but dominating Ezra's twitter page, should be an absolute red flag. It’s okay to acknowledge that dark content is a medium for fiction while also acknowledging that there are some ways of engaging with it that are harmful, especially when it is so glaringly obvious that the content is between a child and an adult (the art I am talking about specifically really is a child. I don’t urge anyone to look at it, but it is gojo depicted as a child of maybe 8 - 10 years old. I’m not using the term child as an umbrella term for minors here).
The problem, stated very plainly, is that the post/s he is engaging with are sexual depictions of a child with the purpose of sexual gratification. That’s the point here. It’s not the dark content, but rather that he is retweeting posts depicting a child of about 8-10 engaged in sexual acts and created for the purpose of sexual gratification.
Once again, this is not a condemnation of dark content. Dark content can be used in so many valuable ways— facing trauma, dealing with taboo subjects, exploring the literary world in a safe and healthy way. As someone who actively consumes dark content, I will be the first to tell you this. However there should always be limits to the types of content produced. Gaining any kind of gratification from looking at a child being a*saulted is disgusting. It is p*dophillic. Especially when he actively engages with minors on his platform.
This is not a conversation of morals— which side is right and wrong. But rather a conversation about the safety of children. This is not a conversation about ageing up as that is not what he is doing. The characters being depicted here are not being aged up, rather are being depicted as minors, or literal children being used for the sexual gratification of adults.
The issue here is a p*dophile. Not dark content. Not anything else.
CONCLUSION.
I’ll be honest, post was extremely hard for me to create. Discovering that someone I once thought was close to me is this kind of person feels disgusting and abhorrent. I honestly wish I never had the displeasure of meeting them in the first place.
Hopefully, by the end of this post you are able to see the kind of person Ezra really is. I could not be silent about this. I knew that the moment all I found all of this out. This post has been very difficult for me to write, but I hope by the end of it some good will come. Some people will be able to avoid interacting with this man.
I believe Ezra needs professional help, and truly hope that he is able to get it some day soon.
Please be careful with who you interact with on the Internet. Adults and minors alike, there are predators everywhere. Please try your best to stay safe in your own online spaces. All of the love in my heart goes out to anyone who has survived child expl*itation. I hope for nothing but the best for you in the future.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this post. I know it is long and triggering for most people. I hope you all have wonderful days and try your best to take care of yourself.
Listed below are some important numbers I would like to bring awareness to before this post is over.
National Child Ab*se Hotline (USA): 1-800-422-4453
National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (USA): 1-800-843-5678
The National Sexual A*sault Hotline (USA): 1-800-656-4673
Childline (UK): 0800-1111
International Child Helpline: 116-111
TLDR: Ezra has a Twitter account where he retweeted artwork of a child gojo being a*saulted by an adult toji. He liked as well as created posts depicting under*ge characters (literally tagged with ‘under*ge’). All while being mutuals with a 16 year old on tumblr.
Tags used to try and spread awareness. I tried to mostly include fandoms that he is in.
UPDATE: lmfao, he has since deleted the retweet of sh*ta gojo after he was called out. Literally proving that it was him.

Rio Main Story Ch 7 1/5
Key Narration, thoughts, speech
Tumblr media
This is simply a fan/unofficial translation of the game. I can’t promise 100% accuracy in the translations as my Japanese isn’t exactly perfect.  Everything is owned by Cybird! Please support them by buying their stories because they work so hard on everything.
If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.
The cold rain rolled down my face. 
In my hands I held both a silver sword and a high quality, dark blue outfit covered in mud…
Tumblr media
And lastly a small velvet box with a ring inside of it.
Enlaid in the ring’s center was a single large gemstone, and even under this terrible weather, the stone didn’t lose its shine..
I stood frozen as I stared at it. The ring was so strikingly beautiful that I hesitated to even touch it.
It what appeared to be a carriage accident falling from the cliffs, the heavily injured man found in the rubble had left behind a ring——
Looking at this, the realization of what this meant made my hands tremble.
Even now, during all of this time, there was a woman out there somewhere waiting for him to come back. A woman important to him.
I couldn’t let this thread of happiness so long in the making be broken in a place like this. Buried under rubble never to be found again.
Owner: “MC, don’t get too close to that boy.”
I heard the Owner’s voice mixing in with the pouring rain.
?: “MC, don’t let yourself get too involved with him.”
Tumblr media
???: “You have a kind heart, so I know you want to take care of him. That kindness of yours is a good thing, really. But—”
???: “You can never, ever give him your heart.”
MC: “What……what do you mean?”
I wasn’t asking just to ask. I really didn’t understand what he meant.
At that time I hadn’t understood the meaning of the Owner’s words, “giving him my heart”.
Owner: “There’s no hidden meaning. It’s just as I said.”
Owner: “He doesn’t have any memories. Without you to help him it will be hard for him to have a life and survive.”
Tumblr media
Owner: “To a man, who has lost everything in his life, your existence alone will be a source of light.”
Owner: “Emotions will run deep and attachments will form.”
MC: “...........”
Owner: “You’ll be fine if you two simply remain friends. But if you began to see signs of something more than friendship appearing——”
MC: “You’re over thinking things, Owner.”
In order to shield the ring from the rain, I carefully closed the jewelry box and laughed.
MC: “I hardly even believe it myself anything like that would happen. And let’s say it does happen……”
MC: “I wouldn’t accept or respond to a man who probably has a fiance out there waiting for him.”
Owner: “............”
MC: “Anyway, I’m glad we were able to find it before it was lost for good. This must be something very important to him.”
MC: “I hope he gets his memories back quickly and is reunited.”
The owner remained silent.
His eyes watching me in pity
My head tilted in growing confusion.
Just what was it that had the Owner so worried?
Owner: “Ah, I almost forgot……”
Owner: “You have never known love.”
~~~~End Flashback~~~~
Tumblr media
Clavis: “——......My, oh my. Things have gotten interesting.”
The first person to speak after sharing my story was Clavis.
In his enchanting, and alluring golden yellow eyes I saw two words shining in them as clear as day, “pure entertainment”.
Clavis: “So what your saying is that despite Rio already having a fiance, he’s been putting the moves on you this entire time.”
Tumblr media
Leon: “But just finding a ring doesn't prove he has a fiancé.”
With Leon still on my left and Clavis on my right, I was still very much trapped between the two of them. Unable to run. And at the mercy of their unwavering stares.
Leon: “Still, calling him irresponsible for trying to seduce you while carrying something so damning on his person only feels right.”
Clavis: “Ahahaha, loyal as he is, never would I have imagined that down bad dog of yours would turn out to be a man unfit for the title of gentleman.”
MC: “....N-no, he’s not like that….it’s that he…Rio, doesn’t know.”
Tumblr media
Clavis&Leon: “Hm?”
(Yeah, I’d probably have the same reaction.)
From what I’ve said thus far, it seems almost pointless to hide everything from him.
But there’s more to the story.
MC: “When I found it, of course I wanted to give Rio what I had found in the forest. I wouldn’t keep it from him.”
MC: “Especially since it was a clue to maybe getting a hint on how to have his memories return…”
MC: “However——......”
~~~~Flashback~~~~
Tumblr media
Rio: “That’s enough!”
MC: “.....mn…..”
Chapter 7 2/5 I have to agree with Leon. Finding a ring, while incriminating (especially with his amnesia) , doesn't mean much. If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.

Everything was just tossed onto the floor. A freshly washed and folded jacket, a sword clean of dirt and the small velvet box.
Rio then hugged his knees, curling himself into a ball on the bed as though he hated the simple act of looking at those items.
Tumblr media
Rio: “I’m sorry……”
MC: “....It’s alright……”
Rio: “............”
MC: “......But why did you do that?”
I didn’t mind seeing the jacket on the floor. Or even the sword..
But…when the small box hit the floor I felt a sting in my chest. 
Rio: “......I don’t know.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “I just felt…disgust.”
MC: “............”
Rio: “Could you hold on to those “things” for me?”
Rio: “There may come a time in the future when I’ll need it but…for now, it’s useless.”
Rio: “I don’t even want to look at it.”
~~~~End Flashback~~~~
MC: “ ——It seems that Rio is afraid of learning more about his own past.”
Tumblr media
Leon: “Which makes it hard for you to say anything to bring it up. I see.”
I nodded at Leon’s sidebar.
MC: “I think……Rio hadn’t realized that what was in the box was an engagement ring.”
(Given the situation at the time, it didn’t seem like the best time to tell him.)
(And seeing Rio with such a terrified and frightened look in his eyes. I was so——)
To this day, I was never able to break the ice and talk about it.
When I lowered my eyes sadly, Leon placed his hand on top of my head and began to ruffle my bangs.
Leon: “Now I fully understand why you were trying to make things clear between you two.”
MC: “.........”
Tumblr media
Leon: “.....It must be painful.”
MC: “Ng……”
(Hmm, is it?)
The “painful” that Leon seemed to be talking about, didn’t sound like he was referring to the pain of Rio having been ripped apart from his fiance. 
Rather, it sounded like the words were meant for me.
(....But wouldn’t it be weird for me to think that?)
(Yeah, of course it would.)
~~~~Flashback~~~~
Tumblr media
Owner: “You…don’t know love.”
~~~~End Flashback~~~~
For some reason, the Owner's words from that night came back to me. Echoing in my mind.
(No, I’m alright……I don’t have any feelings like that. So I’m still ok.)
(I can still say goodbye to him with a smile.) 
It’s not painful
I feel better now
I’ll be sad when he leaves 4+/4+
MC: “I will be sad when we have to say our goodbyes.”
(It doesn’t mean anything serious by thinking it’ll hurt. After all this time it’s normal.)
Tumblr media
(I mean…Rio is my friend.)
Though Leon didn’t say anything else afterwards, he simply responded with a bitter smile.
Clavis: “But, I must say. I’m honestly very intrigued.”
Clavis: “Ever since I heard Sariel’s report I had a gut feeling the loyal pup of yours would be harboring an interesting past.”
Tumblr media
Clavis: “And now after what you said, my suspicions were just solidified, hahaha!!” 
MC: “.....What do you mean, Sariel’s report?”
Clavis: “Oh? You mean you hadn’t heard?”
Clavis: “It’s necessary for all servants wanting to work in the palace to have an in-depth background check done.”
Clavis: “Your butler was no exception. Sariel used every single connection he had in order to dig up who your friend really was.”
Clavis: “And what was the result? Absolutely nothing. The search was a bust.”
Well that was to be expected since he has amnesia——Is what I wanted to say, but nothing would come out.
Sariel’s investigation would have been different from how I went around town asking.
He was someone who had the position and means to find out how another person lived, their family and personal history, and their social status. 
Yet he didn’t come out with anything.
Leon: “....As long as a person is alive and living, there will always be clues and evidence of such left behind.”
Leon: “And going off of your story, it sounds like Rio is part of the upper class. So it would be double in his case.”
Tumblr media
Leon: “It should be easy to trace back a person of nobility. However, everything came up blank.”
MC: “Does that ever happen?”
(There were no traces left behind proving that he ever lived……)
Clavis: “In any case, it isn’t normal.
Leon: “It’s also true that Sariel’s investigation was mainly done within the scope of Rhodolite.”
Leon: “Maybe if we were to expand that search to other countries, we might come up with some other clues.”
Clavis: “For now, the bureaucrats decided he wasn’t a threat to you so they hired him.”
Clavis: “Sounds like a mystery worth solving.”
Tumblr media
Clavis: “....Especially one that Sariel couldn’t solve.”
(Somehow, the more I hear….the more worried I get.)
(I’m getting the feeling that, Rio’s secret might actually be something even crazier than I can even imagine——)
Nokto: “——Man, that little secret of yours is really unbelievable.”
Why do I feel like Clavis is going to cause trouble lol Chapter 7 3/5 If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.

Nokto: “——Man, that little secret of yours is really something unbelievable.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “Hm? What do you mean?”
Rio tilted his head at Nokto, who sat on the opposite side of the chess board between them.
The situation on the board was a constant ebb and flow of offense and defense between the two players.
Nokto: “It’s like you said before.”
~~~~Flashback~~~~
Tumblr media
Rio:
~~~~End Flashback~~~~
Nokto: “---and I quote.”
Rio: “And that means I’m harboring some crazy secret?”
Nokto: “It does, or do you not realize it yourself? Why come to the conclusion that you “aren’t good for MC” if not?”
Nokto: “No one would normally reach that conclusion. Not without already having a hunch of something.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “............”
Nokto moved his chess piece along the board.
A move going on the offensive to put pressure on his opponent.
Nokto: “Here’s what I think. You already have a clue of who you really are.”
Nokto: “Or maybe—you didn’t need a clue. You already knew.”
Rio: “Aww, throw me a bone here. That’s pretty mean, ya know.”
The grin on Rio’s face was impenetrable, and gave nothing away.
Tumblr media
Nokto simply grinned to match his energy, and much like the pieces on the chess board, they were locked in a stalemate.
Rio: “I just worry about MC. That’s all.”
Rio: “If I’m not prepared for anything, even the impossible, then I won’t be ready if the time comes.”
Nokto: “...So that’s what you’re going with? Not that I care.”
Nokto: “Well, whoever you are, as long as you don’t cause me any trouble we’re good.”
Rio: “And as long as you keep your hands away from MC, I won’t bite.”
Nokto: “Yeah, that I can’t promise.”
Nokto: “She’s a special one, that MC. I’d like to have a little taste of her while I have the chance.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “Nope. Absolutely not. I’ll dispose of anyone who defiles her, without question.”
On the surface it only looked like they were having a normal conversation, but there was an intense pressure and stabbing tension not fit for a “normal” conversation.
Including the instant, threatening shift in Rio’s sky blue eyes. 
Nokto: “Haha, chill out. I was kidding. I’d hate to find myself in a mess like Slivo when you “bumped” into him, so I’ll play nice.”
Nokto: “But, what’s so good about her? I don’t get it.”
Rio: “Huh? Are you serious? I can tell you.”
Tumblr media
Nokto: “....If you’re quick.”
Rio: “Read you loud and clear. In that case I’ll compile it to finish by tomorrow morning!”
Tumblr media
Nokto: “....That’s not what quick means.”
Rio put down the piece in his hand, and closed his eyes almost as though he were reminiscing about a memory from long ago.
Rio: “There are so many things about MC that I simply adore.”
Rio: “However, the way that I’ve viewed MC has slowly changed ever since that day.”
Bruh Rio really out here like my Major was MC studies with a minor in MC. He about to give Nokto a full lecture lol. Also the banter between them is hilarious. Casual murder talks between friends.

Rio Main Story Ch7 4/5
Key Narration, thoughts, speech
Tumblr media
This is simply a fan/unofficial translation of the game. I can’t promise 100% accuracy in the translations as my Japanese isn’t exactly perfect.  Everything is owned by Cybird! Please support them by buying their stories because they work so hard on everything.
If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.
I had no memories. There was only a deep darkness where I lost all sense of direction. And her hand reaching out to me was my light in that darkness.
There was a time, however, where I cursed that light.
Tumblr media
Woman: “Psst, hey. Isn’t that him…..”
Guy: “Yeah. That’s the one MC picked up…..”
Woman: “......How scary.”
Man: “I heard he never smiles, and that he lost his memories—”
Whenever I walked through the town, I always heard those disgusted voices.
He has amnesia and doesn’t smile. He’s impudent. No one knows anything about him. All of these rumors and assumptions attracted a lot of attention…. 
There were also some people who took matters of punishing me into their own hands.
Tumblr media
Rio: “Guh…...urgh.”
As I was walking past someone, they punched me in the stomach. I hunched over in an alleyway just as dusk was falling.
Even at a glance the man looked very strong, and was muscular.
If I tried to fight back, it was easy to imagine the man would just retaliate.
Maybe it was because of that the man didn’t have any hesitations about punching me.
Burly man: “Ahh, sorry about running into ya. Didn’t mean it.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “.....”
Burly man: “Heh, you better watch that impudent look you got.”
Burly man: “.....Rumor says you're bumming off of MC and staying with her.”
Rio: “......And what of it?”
Burly man: “It’s only because MC is kind hearted. If some guy comes around faking amnesia there’s no way she’d throw him out.” 
Burly man: “Just where the hell do you get off taking advantage of a kind woman like that? What scam are you trying here?”
Tumblr media
Rio: “.......What the hell are you even talking about?”
Rio: “What, you got a thing for her or something? I don’t care if you do….”
Rio: “But that has nothing to do with me, right? So if it’s alright with you, I’d rather not get punched for some ridiculous suspicion.”
Rio: “Seriously……Is everyone in this place a dumbass?”
Burly man: “Whaddya say? You’re just as shitty and smart mouthed as the rumors say you are.”
Tumblr media
Burly man: “......You have no idea just how much MC has suffered because of that damn attitude of yours.”
He snatched my hair, forcibly yanking me to my feet.
I felt pain, humiliation and a deep hatred that made me wonder why I had to go through something like this.
As I fell into a muck of dark emotions, her appearance came to mind. Cursing and resenting her even though it was wholly unjustified.
MC: “Rio? What happened? How did you get injured?”
Once it was all over the attack from my friendly neighborhood jumper wasn’t as violent as I thought it would be.
He only kicked me around 2 or three times before leaving. It didn’t even feel like he was really trying to hurt me.
More like he was trying to figure out my true intentions…Or at least that was the gut feeling that I had.
However, my luck only continued to be proven the worst. As I just sat in the alleyway, nursing the pain from the injuries I received, MC showed up.
As soon as MC looked at me and saw all of the scrapes and bruises on my body, the smile she always had on her face fell away and she turned around.
That gave me a bad feeling and I grabbed her hand.
Rio: “Where are you going?”
MC: “I have a good idea of the jerk that hurt you, so I’m going to go have a talk with him. Because I’d like to know what the hell he was thinking!”
Rio: “………”
Rio: “…..For someone with such a cute face, you’ve got one manly personality.”
MC: “If that’s what I’ve got to be then fine! It’s all just my own selfishness, but I’ve already made 
up my mind to help you!”
Tumblr media
MC: “You’re my responsibility. That means no matter what, when or how I WILL protect you!”
Rio: “......Hm.”
I laughed at and mocked her in my mind as I let her go to “protect me” or whatever it was she thought she could do. 
People can spin together all the words they wanted when it was just lip service. MC was just one of those people who was all talk.
…..But back then, I still didn’t have even the smallest idea of the caliber of woman MC truly was.
Burly man: “Wake up, MC! He’s deceiving you! He doesn’t have amnesia at all!”
MC: “Rio isn’t the kind of person to trick someone like that.”
MC had left alone after that, but of course I followed her, and when I arrived there was already a crowd gathered. 
At the center of the crowd arguing was MC and the man. It was like watching a small, dainty rabbit going toe-to-toe with a large beast of a man——
The sight alone was enough to say who would win, however none of that seemed to matter to MC. Her gaze was unwavering and full of power.
Tumblr media
Burly man: “It’ll be too late if something does happen. Everyone here right now will agree that guy is dangerous.”
Burly man: “Not only is he not one of us, he has a bad look in his eyes, unfriendly and who knows what he’ll get up to.”
Burly man: “Just wake up, MC! He’s dangerous and everyone is worried!!”
MC: “......I trust myself when it comes to judging someone’s character.”
Tumblr media
MC: “And that’s why, even if I don’t know who he is, I know the kind of person he is.”
MC: “He’s been confused without his memories and struggling to live in an unfamiliar place…..”
MC: “And maybe he doesn’t smile but….He’s not a bad person.”
Burly man: “But MC……”
Tumblr media
MC: “If anything happens then I’ll take full responsibility for it.”
MC: “So will you please just watch over us like you have been so far?”
Burly man: “MC…Why….”
Burly man: “....tch….Why do you always have to bow your head, and make excuses for a guy like that!?”
Tumblr media
Burly man: “You do that over and over until the people here who distrust him are satisfied. Apologizing for someone so rude, impudent and…..”
Burly man: “Enough of this already. I’ve had enough. I’m just tired of watching you apologize over and over for him….”
MC: “.........”
MC: “......Thank you for worrying about me. However—”
MC: “I won’t forgive anyone who hurts Rio.”
MC: “After this, please apologize to him.”
I really love how different the MC's personality is for each suitor. I feel like for Rio she's a lot more head strong that in the other stories I've read. It's pretty cool. Chapter 7 5/5 If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.

Rio Main Story Ch7 5/5
Key Narration, thoughts, speech
Tumblr media
This is simply a fan/unofficial translation of the game. I can’t promise 100% accuracy in the translations as my Japanese isn’t exactly perfect.  Everything is owned by Cybird! Please support them by buying their stories because they work so hard on everything.
If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.
Rio: “——I was completely oblivious.”
Rio: “Ever since she took me in, she was protecting me without my knowledge.”
Tumblr media
Nokto: “.........”
Rio released a single breath before once again reaching for his pieces.
Rio: “I was only thinking about myself and not considering or even looking at the people around me.”
Rio: “All I did was sulk, while resenting the person who’d saved me…….”
Rio: “How crappy could one person’s personality be?”
He gave a painful smile, one full of heartfelt regret.
Nokto: “Sounds like you’re a far cry from the person you were then.”
Tumblr media
Nokto: “As for her, however, it doesn’t sound like she’s changed at all.”
Rio: “And you’d be right…..No matter who it is, MC has shown kindness to anyone since forever.”
Rio: “To the point she would get angry for the sake of some hopeless guy like me.”
Rio: “After witnessing something like that anyone would feel the need to change.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “I remember hating myself. Hating being someone that MC always needed to protect.” 
Nokto: “And that’s what made you who you are today?” 
Rio: “That’s right…Well, a whole bunch of other stuff happened later on, so there’s that too!”
Rio moved his black queen to capture Nokto’s white king piece.
With that move the stalemate came to an end, and the winner of the game became clear.
Tumblr media
Nokto: “Darn it. Looks like I lost.”
Rio: “That puts us even at 2 losses and 2 wins.”
Nokto: “....Since I lost, why don’t I give ya a hand in figuring out who you are?”
Faced with Nokto’s sudden proposition, Rio’s sky blue eyes trembled ever so slightly.
Nokto: “I have a large social circle, even for a prince. I even have information networks in other countries as well.”
Tumblr media
Nokto: “I could figure out whether or not you’re a threat to her.”
Rio: “Well….”
Rio: “No, thanks. I’ll have to decline.”
Nokto: “Why?”
Rio: “Even if only by a few seconds, I want to stay by MC’s side for as long as I can.”
Nokto: “............”
Rio: “Once I get my memories back, we’ll probably have to separate.”
Rio: “And that……scares me.”
Nokto: “......Yeah.”
Nokto: “You’re just full of contradictions, huh?”
Rio: “......You don’t have to tell me that.”
Tumblr media
Rio: “I understand that……More than anyone else.”
After that neither of them spoke another word.
——Elsewhere at a certain merchant's estate, in the same small town that had suffered from heavy rains only a few days ago, a young ‘princess’ was hard at work.
Tumblr media
Sophia: “Urgh…nng….”
Maid: “What are you doing out here Lady Sophia. It’s dangerous.”
The maid approached the young girl who was trying her hardest to stretch her body to peer into a window from the garden.
Having been caught, the little girl quickly dropped her hands from the windowsill and hung her head.
Sofia: “I’m sorry. I was curious about our guest……”
Maid: “.........?”
When the maid glanced through the window into the reception room, she spotted a young man with azure hair, and striking deep blue eyes.
The well dressed young man seemed to be having a light-hearted conversation with the lady of the house. A breezy smile on his face.
Maid: “What makes you so curious?”
Sofia: “Because that smiling guy reminds me of this prince that I met before.”
Tumblr media
Sofia: “He was a prince with shining gold hair, and eyes as blue as the sky!”
…The shadows that would soon steal away our peaceful days were only moments away. Slowly creeping upon us.
I kinda like how everyone is trying to (somewhat) wingman Rio. I'm sure in some of the other routes they be side-eyeing Rio lol. They gotta be. Especially since this past has to be cannon in every route. but anyway Chapter 8 If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this. It’s your first and only warning.

Tears of themis
This is for the newest even in Tears of Themis. The "Enduring Lights" event. So far is pretty fun. I kind of like being able to have the guys as potential "antagonist" in the story. I almost kind of hope one of them end up being the "bad guy" in the story. It would be so much fun. Also I GOT ARTEM'S SR CARD WITH THE FREE 10 PULLS! I was so surprise because I never expected my luck to get an SSR card on my first 10. Maybe this time I can get all 4 *fingers crossed* Anyway, time to rate some outfits!
Tumblr media
!st for the casual fit I have Marius. It's nice, sleek and that navy button up looks like it feels heavenly to the touch. Like silk.
Tumblr media
2nd is Vyn. He just looks so cozy and seeing him look so casual is always a feast for the eyes.
Tumblr media
3rd I feel like Artem could still walk into a business setting and still not look too out of place. I like that black and red buttoned shirt.
Tumblr media
4th, it's cute on Luke but I'm not a big fan of patterns like that. lol
Tumblr media
Not related but I just thought this was so funny. They all talk like they don't like hanging out, but we all know they are the best of travel buddies. Also idk if it's just me, but whenever I read these opening events like this, I read this as MC has a relationship with all of them and they are all trying to get their alone time with MC. Makes it so much more funnier.
Tumblr media
This is SUCH a good picture. Also I like how if you touch Vyn he's like "Why are you guys blocking the stairs so early int he morning?"
Tumblr media
For their event outfits Luke is 1sr hands down. All I have to say is STRAPS!! Also, why does it look like he came from AOT lol? Luke looks soo handsome here.
Tumblr media
2nd is my man Vyn. I don't really know what to say other than I really like it. The scarf they put on him is such a simple addition but adds sooo much. Also those gloves. Yes please.
Tumblr media
3rd is Artem. Not gonna lie, I like it but it's a bit too much for me. Maybe it's just too much going on? I think forgoing the scarf would have been better. Or maybe he's just holding it for me just in case I get chilly around the neck hehe. Also peep the rolly on the wrist.
Tumblr media
4th is Marius. Honestly now that I'm here, I kind of feel like I like this one more that Artem's. I think the lighter colors helps. Also his shirt matches his hair and the hat looks nice with the outfit. Though I think the scarf could be done with or without.
I just realized....Luke didn't get the memo about wearing a scarf. Why did they leave him out!?!

Tears of Themis
I totally forgot to post this one. Idk if anyone cares but I DO! And that's all that matters lol. So here I am ranking my fav outfits from TOT
Tumblr media
This time 1st goes to my man Marius. I don't know if it's the suit, or the tie. Or many the combination, but he is looking sharp! Is that considered a checkered pattern suit? Idk but whatever it is he looks SO GOOD in it. He may be the youngest but man knows how to dress.
Tumblr media
2nd goes to Artem. It's very mature, and first his style very well. I noticed he always has those huge overcoats, but honestly he never doesn't look good. Also it's the perfect large size that he could wrap me up in it with him when it's cold. That alone is *chefs kiss*. Not to mention that tie on him is doing things to me.
Tumblr media
3rd is Luke! Not gonna lie, I don't really like the color BUT it totally gives watson vibes and Luke sooooo pulls this look off. I think the inner jacket is saving the look for me, because I don't particularly care for the moss green jacket. But everything all together really pops, and looks super cute on him. Also those glasses are too cute on him right now!
Tumblr media
4th is Vyn. Noooo!! How did you get in 4th place. My baby! He looks so dashing and handsome in his clothes, but unfortunately this is what happened. I don't know how because there are so many checked boxes here. That cane. His gloves. DAT AS-cott. Man screams high cost living.

There is one part I'm not too sure about the translation. It's the one when Jude says:
"......It would be a damn shame if ya run off and get done in after keepin' silent for a month."
The Japanese on that part kinda threw me for a loop but...meh, I did what I could lol.
Had to reupload the post because I accidentally deleted the post because I wanted to reupload the fixed video.

UM SIR!!! SIR!!
Luke TOT Sweet Felicity event
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then he has the audacity to say “I’m definitely going to have sweet dreams tonight”
Sometimes I do wish it was more explicit like some other Otome games BUT there is also something sexy about just the barest bits of info and letting the tension and imagination take over.

Having been lulled into security from being beside Keith and his sun-like warmth for so long. it had completely slipped my mind. 
That there was a beast more dangerous than anything I had known also prowling the castle halls…
???: “You look happy. And I’d bet that ol’Keith down there is just as happy as you are, no?”
MC: “!”
Tumblr media
I spun around like a thunderbolt at the voice I heard whispering in my ear. When I did I saw Gilbert standing behind me with a bright, dazzling smile.
(What’s with him? I didn’t even sense him, let alone hear him coming.)
My heart was battering against my chest, but it was more from being surprised than it was from fear.
Gilbert: “Fufu, sorry about that. I didn’t mean to scare you when you’ve only just recovered.”
(So he knows that I collapsed with a fever. I’m not surprised……)
Gilbert turned to look out the window.
Keith wasn’t there anymore. Only Yves and Licht, and they were busy sparring against each other again.
MC: “Sorry but…Um, did you need me for something?”
Tumblr media
Gilbert: “Mmm, no. I was just curious about what you were staring so intensely at. So I came over to have a look for myself.”
MC: “I see.”
(But would that really be reason enough for Gilbert to come over and talk to me? Just because he was curious about what I was looking at?)
Gilbert: “Have you and Keith become friends?”
MC: “Well, I’m not sure about Prince Keith, but compared to our first meeting I’d like to think so.”
Gilbert: “I would suspect Keith would say the same thing.”
(I just can’t get a read on him or what he’s thinking.)
I couldn’t figure out what his angle was. What he was after talking to me, and when I slightly tilted my head Gilbert’s eyes narrowed.
Yet that tiny movement was all it took for my throat to suddenly close up in fear. Like someone had their hands wrapped around my neck and squeezing.
Gilbert: “Since the two of you are close now, it would mean you heard the story.”
Gilbert: “About how Keith lost someone who was more important to him than even his very own life.”
MC: “Huh…..”
Tumblr media
Gilbert: “Huh? Oh my. I was under the impression that you already knew. Given the two of you were close enough to spend an entire night together.”
Gilbert: “But you don’t know anything.”
(Keith lost someone important to him?)
(Someone…who was more important than his own life….)
I heard what he said. I know I did. Yet, somehow my mind just couldn’t make sense of his words. 
Gilbert: “I just can’t stand to see you like this. Since I feel bad for you I’ll tell you.”
Gilbert: “I’ll tell you three things. How, where and why he lost them.”
MC: “.............No thank you.”
MC: “I don’t feel like this is the type of story I should hear from anyone other than Prince Keith himself.”
(If I can’t help it I really don’t want to know anything about it anyway.)
Just thinking about how this could be a part of Keith’s past that he wants to keep a secret makes my heart twist with regret should I learn about it.
A feeling that Gilbert seemed to have picked up on when my lips tightened into a frown.
MC: “Ahh….!?”
Next thing I knew someone was pulling me by my arm.

Keith: “You’re still here, I’m glad.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “Oh, you’re here too Gilebrt?”
Keith had pulled me over to stand beside him, and it almost felt like he did that to get me away from Gilbert.
Gilbert: “Hello.”
MC: “Prince Keith why are you here….”
(Did he overhear our conversation?)
Even under normal circumstances just looking at Keith was enough for my heart to act like it doesn’t have any sense, but this time I wasn’t getting a good feeling from the situation at all.
Keith: “I remembered I had something I wanted to speak with you about, so I left training to come see you.”
Keith: “I requested for you to guide me again today, but you see I have a meeting negotiation at that time. I was hoping you wouldn’t mind pushing it back an hour.”
Keith: “If you already have a prior arrangement I don’t mind moving it to a different day. Though, I’m sorry for the short notice.”
MC: “Don’t worry, I’ll be free so pushing it back is ok with me.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “Thank goodness. I’m looking forward to it.”
He looked down at me with a gentle smile.
(Thank goodness is right……Looks like he didn’t overhear us.)
I could feel the tension winding my body up tight slowly melting away.
The moment MC had left the hall it was like a blanket of night had fallen over the area. The atmosphere instantly turning dark, cold and silent.
Gilbert: “.........”
Keith: “............”
Without warning Gilbert was suddenly thrusting his cane towards Keith, aiming right for his throat. And Keith stopped it in its place, reaching up to seize it mid-strike in his large hand.
Gilbert: “Thought so. It’s ‘you’.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “You knew and planned this, didn’t you.”
Gilbert: “Yup.”
Keith eased up on the cane, releasing it once Gilbert gave a couple of taps to it, encouraging Keith to release it.
Unlike usual, the look in those golden eyes was like that of a beast; cold and sharp.
Keith: “Gilber, I really wish you’d cease pulling these stunts every time you want to see me.”
Keith: “Just look at me, I’m so depressing and weak willed….”
Gilbert: “Fufu, that’s quite the thing to say, all things considered.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “I speak only the truth.”
With a soft tap to his lips with his pointer finger, Gilbert smiled.
Gilbert: “Perhaps if you simply stayed back and quiet, you would have gotten the information you were after.”
Keith: “Now, look who’s talking.”
Tumblr media
Gilbert: “But Keith, I’m only speaking the truth.”
Keith: “I already know that woman and Obsidian have no ties to one another.”
Keith: “I only interrupted you because you were about to start running your mouth, and tell her things she didn’t need to know.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “It’s forbidden to talk about that, even in my home country. So keep it to yourself.”
This chapter is so funny to me. It doesn't translate well in English but the part where I translated as "I'm only speaking the truth" (I don't know how the official translation translated this part) it was the best I could do lol. The actual Japanese uses the phrase "どの口が言う(dono kuchi ga iu)" which means "You're one to talk" "You've got some nerve to say that" Something like that. But when Keith replied he said "この口(kono kuchi)" which means "This mouth". It was because he took "どの口" (dono kuchi)for it's literal meaning of "who's mouth/which mouth" and "言う"(iu) which is the verb "to say" So Keith was kind of being a smart ass in that way. That's also why it said that he pointed to his mouth as he said it. Then in the second time when Gilbert says the exact same thing to get him back, because Keith then used the same phrase "どの口が言う”. At the very least that's how I interpreted it. If someone has a screen shot of the ENG convo I wouldn't mind sharing I'm quite curious lol Chapter 8 3/4 If you’re going to like/follow/reblog my posts, I encourage you to read this.

Gilbert: “That right? My bad.”
Gilbert: “It’s just the two of you were so close, and yet she didn’t have a clue. I felt so bad for the little bunny that I felt compelled to tell her about it.”
Gilbert: “But, in any case, if that’s what you want then I’ll relent.”
Gilbert: “But as I’ve already said, do be careful not to go overboard, yeah?”
Tumblr media
Gilbert: “If you get any sloppier than this, it’ll make my job a lot harder.”
He seemed done talking after that, and turned to walk away. The bottom of his cane thunking against the floor with his every step until he was out of sight.
Keith: ………..”
Keith: “This time around I’ll have to settle things.”
Some days later—
Days passed since I last spoke to Gilbert and he brought up Keith’s past. While I still hadn’t been able to sort out my thoughts about what I had heard——
The day of a certain party had come.
Tumblr media
Keith: “It’s more crowded than I thought……”
There was an unending stream of young ladies and gentlemen, all dressed to impress in their flashy suits and dresses, entering the residence.
Keith: “Ms. MC, if you’re feeling even the slightest bit tired please let me know.”
Keith: “Oh, right. May I touch your hand?”
MC: “Hm? Yes, ofcourse.”
(What does he need my hand for?)
Once I held out my hand, Keith pressed down firmly on both the palm of my hand and the center of my wrist.
(Hmm, that feels good. And it feels warm too……)
Keith: “I read in a book that when you’re feeling stressed or tense, if you massage these two points then you’ll feel better.”
Keith: “I’ve been worried for you since you’ve looked stressed ever since we left the carriage.”
Keith: “I’m sorry for surprising you.”
MC: “No, not at all. You were right, I’m actually pretty nervous about being here….hehe.”
Tumblr media
Keith: “Why are you laughing?”
MC: “Nothing, just thinking. The massage was nice, but I feel like my nerves went away because of how warm your hands were more than the massage.”
MC: “Thank you.”
Keith: “I’ve always felt my hands were uselessly large, so I’m glad they were to you.”
Keith: “Although……You’re exceptionally good at making me happy, it’s a little worrying for me.”
(His little shy smile is so cute. I think I like it when he smiles like this.)
I felt a blooming warmth in the middle of my chest from just looking at his smile.
(That aside, I can’t believe I’m actually attending a party for my favorite author. I never thought a day like this would come.)
