my favorite genre of saiki k fics is when theres like semi-slow burn of all his friends discovering more of his true self and theres a power reveal eventually, so now they know that their preconceived image of him was wrong and in actuality hes literally the strongest guy they know (or the strongest guy ever)
so they start having a NEW image of him in their head, and... sure its much more true than before, but now there are NEW misconceptions..
so of course, right when they start thinking of him as this heroic and powerful guy who takes all his problems in stride, then something happens or EVERYTHING happens and his persona comes crashing down and they see an even NEWER part of him.. one that they never imagined he couldve had with either the old OR the new images they had of him in their heads..

it kinda makes me sad that even as the fandom is growing quieter here people still dont seem to like characters like dekapan or hatabo or even matsuzo. like ive seen people say "why watch the old stuff lol it isnt even about the sextuplets" and like... thats kinda the point. the point is you get to know eeeeveryone else bc the sextuplets are just the same kid times six. its just... sad to me. i really only see chibita drawn when its karabita, and forget ever seeing people draw dayon, dekapan, or hatabo. iyamis really the only character thats okay in terms of appreciation but... bleh idk i wish these other characters werent so horribly slept-on, both in the fandom AND the show (cuz lets face it they got ignored quite a bit even in the show/movies)

spires: yhara, the mouth & sepulcur, keeper of souls.
yhara, the mouth, is as her title suggests. as the mouth of Death, she is responsible for conveying his command, judgement, and rules with no biases and without interpretation. as she is his only means of communication, she is fastened by his side at all times and has been from the dawn of all creation. will be for all eternity.
it is believed that the original yhara was "excised" for dissenting to the destruction of another Spire, badulf, the failed usurper, and as punishment, she had her voice removed and fashioned into a music box, her body destroyed and remade with the only thing she left behind: a cut of Death's tongue. this new yhara, the current yhara, inherits none of the original's memories.
now, used and powerless, voiceless in every way except through the music box of her last self, yhara is barred from having any autonomy or thoughts of her own, existing solely as Death's mouthpiece. inside, she yearns for the day she is able to roam and feel as freely as sam does. she yearns to remember who she was.
sepulcur, keeper of souls. (pr. like the word "sepulcher") sepulcur's title, too, speaks for itself, although sepulcur's ultimate purpose is to construct a new moon out of all the collected souls in an attempt to revive the Maiden — Death's decree. sepulcur can be found in a rotting, impossibly tall watchtower where he is surrounded by the blinding powder-white lights of the souls, exposed every second of his isolated life to the smearing murmurs of their laments in life, their woes and their stories, their wishes and whom they miss.
this ceaseless exposure, being fed the whispers of the dead ad nauseam, have caused him to go mad, his memories and sense of self all merged and confused with those of the departed.
(i imagine sepulcur to look similarly to mi//colash of bl//oodborne [below] with a cage for a head.)
