Hello! I really love your Oshi No Ko x Reader fics! Especially ones with Aqua! Honestly I love the guy, but I can't deny that the man is a major red flag- And that got me thinking, what if:
Yandere!Aquamarine x Reader (who eerily looks like Ai Hoshino)? Plus, she doesn't act anything similar to Ai because all her life she was just compared to the late idol-?
Anywho, keep it up!<333
GET UP 🦢 ‧ ₊ ✧ Aqua x fem! Reader
-TYSM FOR REQUESTING sorry for the late request and I’m sorry if this is bad I didn’t know how to end this on a happy note 😓
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aqua thought it was strange, or a coincidence to be exact, maybe even a gift sent from above, gracing him with a second chance with his favorite idol.
But to say he was disappointed was an understatement. Your personality did not, in fact, match that of his late mother, but your looks did, so that was all he cared about.
If he couldn't have her, he would just make do. That was what he told himself over and over again countless times whenever he saw your face.
Sure, your star-like eyes and purple hair matched hers greatly, and he did try really hard to separate the both of you from each other.
He knew how much you hated it when he asked AI Hoshino-related questions that would unleash your short temper on him, causing him to groan in annoyance every time you yelled curses at his face.
Although Aqua hated your short temper and how your eyes dulled with the mention of the late idol, how they looked exactly like hers before she died, and how he despised that you were the exact opposite of the cheery, always happy, and pretty idol – the idol who knew how to act around people, but you didn't – he couldn't fathom why you were so upset. He had no idea.
All he knew was that he hated it so much, to the point where he wanted you. He wanted you, the AI Hoshino that he imagined would be you.
And even if he had to go through all that trouble, he'd try. He'd try his hardest to make you the closest thing he had to the idol.
Tumblr media
"Ai wouldn't act like that," he blurted, staring at you blankly. It had been mere minutes before he said that that you two had been arguing.
Without even thinking, you raised your hand, slapping him across the face, leaving a red mark on his cheek.
"Just… just how many times do I have to explain to you that I'm not her? Whatever she meant to you, I'm not her. I'm my own person. Can't you comprehend that?" She questioned, staring at him, her hands forming into fists, waiting for a response from her boyfriend. But he just sighed as if this wasn't worth his time.
"Aqua, you know I thought you were different, that you wouldn't compare me to a dead woman! But that's all you do, and I hate it. Sometimes I wish I never met you," she broke the silence, tears in her eyes, frowning at his silence.
"Look, Ai—" he didn't get to continue his sentence when he realized his screw up.
"Ai? Ai? Are you being serious with me, Aqua?" she screamed at him through tears before walking away, upset and hurt.
Perhaps Aqua wasn't the perfect person for her.
Tumblr media
Hope u enjoyed sorry if this is bad I can’t write a good thing abt aqua

Honestly, as a mere 12-year-old, Sarina having such thoughts, and being delusional and pushing them away, is probably an accurate description of what an 'unloved' child would feel. From our childhoods, we were taught that parental love was natural and something every kid received, which makes kids harder to accept the neglect and lack of love from parents. Or, worse, when your parents' love starts waning, you still hold on to the past where they loved you, refusing to let go.

Oshi no Ko Chapter 141 : Hikaru And Ai
I know the latest chapter of oshi no ko was very controversial and everyone is making their own speculation about what might happen but can we take a moment, just a tiny moment to appreciate this panel :
Tumblr media
Hikaru has been lying his whole life, always fooling people and never showing his true colors. However, for the first time in his life, someone was able to see through his lies, someone who could tell that Hikaru wasn't fine as he always says.
And he opened up to her, we saw in the last chapter that both of them were enjoying each other company and having fun together but Hikaru seems to trust her a lot to the point of telling her about the abuse
And Ai, Ai went to confront Airi the moment she heard all of his story, which was huge change in her character, she usually seems detached from the world and not getting involved and always saying -not what she want to say but - what people want to hear, but here, she stood up for Hikaru's sake and made Airi know what she truly is (nothing but an abuser).

Ruby the Actress (major Manga spoilers!)
Ruby is probably my favourite character in Oshi No Ko. She’s someone who at first seems really simple and straightforward, but as the story progresses it becomes more clear she’s more complex than that.
In the current arc, a lot of parallels are being drawn between Ruby and Ai, Ai is central to Ruby. As Sarina, Ai was her escape and her idol. As Ruby, Ai was her mother (and still her favourite idol). Ruby both loves Ai, wants Ai to love her and wants to emulate Ai. Ruby is borderline fanatical about Ai. 
But how similar are they?
Tumblr media
The narrative has portrayed Ruby both as one of the more honest/straightforward characters, but also asserted that she has been lying/acting this whole time, so what’s the truth?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ruby isn’t a step-ford smiler and doesn’t have any issue with expressing negative emotions. Whether it’s her initial hostility towards Kana or her nerves before a big show or throwing a childish tantrum about a song. 
Tumblr media
It’s hard to imagine Ai being comfortable being this emotionally open around someone. Even when Ai was insulted by a friend on B-Komachi she hardly had any outward emotion, compared to Ruby in the same situation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ruby also values honesty even to her own detriment, wanting to honestly do the work out YouTube challenge with Pieon, even though they could of just edited it. Compared to Ai, who felt that being a liar was intrinsic to being a good idol and felt unable to stop lying.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But if Ruby is a sweet, honest and straightforward person, how was she able to change so quickly into someone who was willing to manipulate those around her for the purpose of revenge? Is it a sudden character change or something that was building in her all along?
Even before she was Ruby, Sarina is shown to be a sweet and cheerful girl. I don’t think this was completely an act, but she felt she had to hide her more ‘ugly’ emotions in order to keep her parents love and affection. Even to Gorro she never showed the extent of her hurt and anger about being abandoned by her parents. Crucially, she also lied to herself, unable to face reality that her parents didn’t love her the way she wanted them to. She is unable to face this reality even as Ruby, until she can’t deny it any longer. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Even though Ruby is ‘cute and honest’ the circumstances of her life necessitated her to lie about important parts of herself; She kept being reincarnated a secret from Ai and everyone around her. She even kept the details of her past life a secret from Aqua. When Ai was killed she had to keep it a secret from the world. This increased her reliance on lies, as in order to protect her own secret and Ai’s, she has to play a ‘role’ and continue to pattern of cutting off unwanted parts of herself. 
Although Ruby was able to overcome Ai’s death to an extent and is able to grieve in a more healthy way than Aqua, she’s obviously still traumatised and harbours a lot of rage and hate for the perpetrator in her heart. Which she keeps mostly hidden. 
Tumblr media
Ruby has shown to cope well with Ai’s death, but the fact she is unable to speak to any of her friends about major traumas in her life (one mother abandoning her, another being murdered) probably limits her ability to come to terms with her feelings. The only person she can sort of speak to- Aqua- has his own stuff going on. 
One of the first things Ruby says post time-skip is that she has two big secrets, showing that hiding things have remained central to her life. Whether she wants to or not. 
Tumblr media
  Ruby remains cheerful and straightforward post time-skip, and I really don’t think this is all an act. She builds genuine friendships with Mem and Kana, unlike Ai who struggled to make connections with her teammates. Ruby really enjoys being an idol. She wants to fulfil her own and her mother’s dream and be a pure-hearted idol. 
And for a while things are fine. 
Until they’re not and Ruby realises that the person behind her mother’s death is still out there, and they killed the doctor who supported her more than anyone in her previous life. 
Tumblr media
It feels like a complete character change. But is it?. Ruby is someone who feels love very strongly, but she also feels hate too.
She begins to be motivated by hate instead of love. With the same single-mindedness she displayed aiming to be an idol, Ruby aims for revenge for both Ai and Gorro. Ruby has always felt incredibly strongly about those she loves; Ai goes without saying. For Gorro, Ruby wanted to become an idol partially to meet him again, even though that was completely improbable. She can be fanatical with things she loves.  
So she is able to cross her own morals in order for revenge. Ichigo agrees to introduce Ruby to Ai’s old contacts if she becomes famous. So motivated by vengeance, Ruby manipulates those around her to become more famous. She’s surprisingly adept at it, because she was already used to having to hide things and put on an act to an extent. She isn’t ‘made of lies’ like Ai felt she was, but Ruby has always been cutting off the uglier and more complicated parts of herself in order to fit the role she wants to play. 
Tumblr media
 Ruby becomes super popular. Her personality starts to shift but it’s she hasn’t completely left behind her childish traits. Being a manipulator is another role for her, but there are hints she still isn’t as calculating and serious as she maybe wants to be.
Tumblr media
The pedestal Ruby put the idol world on starts to crack, and she starts to confront the ugly part of show biz beneath the glittering veneer. She realises that Ai probably had to lie too to be successful. She starts to realise the truth about things she’s lied to herself about. Idols aren’t always pure and perfect and the world they live in is brutal. Ai was the ideal to Ruby/Sarina, she always tried to emulate her. She wanted to be a pure and innocent idol like she thought Ai was, now she thinks she needs to be a liar like Ai. 
The happy lies Ruby made into part of her identity start to crumble.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then, Aqua tells the world Ai’s secret in order to save Kana. Ruby see’s this as the ultimate betrayal. She thinks Ai is no longer first in Aqua’s heart and she feels totally alone in the world. Even though she has others around her, Aqua is the only one who can understand the reincarnation and Ai’s death.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
All her core beliefs have been squashed; The Idol world is cold and brutal and lead to her mother’s death, Ai wasn’t a perfect innocent idol and had to lie constantly, and now she thinks Aqua has stopped caring about Ai, and loses the bond with the only person who could really understand her. She also has to confront that as Sarina she wasn’t loved by her mother.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At this point she begins questioning her own identity and falling apart. She no longer enjoys being an Idol but feels she have to get revenge. Ruby doesn’t know who Ai is, so she doesn’t know who she is herself. The entanglement with her own identity and Ai’s gets more confusing as she’s playing her in a movie.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She can’t be the perfect innocent idol- nobody can- but she doesn’t enjoy being the liar and manipulator she feels she needs to be to avenge Ai and Gorro.
Tumblr media
We see how fragile her sense of identity is; she’s able to convince herself she became an idol to avenge Ai, forgetting that it was her dream across two life times.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s only when Aqua reveals who he is and reminds Ruby of who she was prior to her path of vengeance that she’s able to start rebuilding her identity. Finding out Aqua is Gorro helps tether her and bridge the gap between Sarina and Ruby.
Crucially, he reminds Ruby that she is not Ai. She doesn’t have to be her, she’s her own person and she’s good enough a herself.
Tumblr media
Ruby still has a lot of struggles to come in the movie arc, but hopefully she’ll continue down the path of becoming her own person; realising she can’t be perfect and she will have dark feelings, but that doesn’t mean her naturally cheerful upbeat personality is a lie either. 
Is Ruby like Ai? I don’t think so. But they both struggle with identity. Ai feels like she’s never been able to form or connect with an identity, Ruby has had so many thrust on her (Sarina, Ruby, ‘Ai’) that it’s confusing to her.
They’re their own people with completely different backgrounds, personalities and quirks. But I do think Ruby’s emotional journey will leave her best placed to understand Ai; Ruby is starting to realise that Ai neither a perfect ideal idol, nor a mysterious master manipulator. She’s more than her idol persona. Ai is a complicated human with her own motivations, fears and issues just like everyone else.

Meanwhile, major developments in Mangaland
Guess next chapter Ruby gets the double light Star Eyes
Always felt the point of the story was for Ruby to become the real version of what Ai pretended to be. The real Ultimate Idol

okay I'll make a post about it bc I didn't think ppl would actually agree with me or think the same but maybe im not delusional
so when i saw this official art the first thing that striked me is that ai doesn't look very ai-like. Especially the expression. She isn't smiling.
Tumblr media
Then I saw some people saying that it might be Ruby in ai costume AND THAT MAKES SM SENSE.
like think about it, ai is always with either a smile, a funny expression, with a tongue out, and playful, right?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
always.
this is the only official art i found without it, but is still doesn't look like the expression on the newest art. You know what does it look like?
Tumblr media
Like ruby. It's the same mouth open expression if u look at it side by side.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And another thing i saw pointed out are the eyes:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They look the same and more pinkish than purple.
So yeah ignore me if I'm speaking nonsense and it turns out to be untrue but I'm convinced the one on the art is Ruby not Ai.

haii !! can u do a aqua hoshino x reader that acts a little too much like ai that he meets in an acting job ? ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾ thankyouu!
BOUQUET 🦢 ‧ ₊ ✧ Aqua x reader
-hope this matched your request! Tysm for requesting lovely <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Aqua knew it was a coincidence that you had acted the same way as his mother; she had been dead for years, and everyone had moved on from her death except him and his sister Ruby, who lived knowing they had been held by their mother as she was slowly bleeding to death.
Still, Aqua wouldn't let the opportunity to keep someone or something that acted as AI slip away so easily from his grasp. He would hold onto every chance, and you weren't an exception, as he clung onto you more desperately than anything.
It didn't take long for people to notice how he acted around you differently than he did with others—his cheeks turning pink when you kissed his cheek as a thank you for giving you a drink, or how he would do anything without a second thought.
The first time you two met was on the acting set. You smiled brightly and changed emotions as if you were a robot on stage, just like AI.
Much like her, you had the same unique charisma on the acting scene. It was so similar to her that the boy was convinced the idol had incarnated into her body this time.
And just like in his previous life, he became obsessed and infatuated with you— the way you moved, spoke, acted. He had to get close to you, and he succeeded.
Perhaps deep into your relationship, Aqua would attempt to change your appearance with sweet words as you passed by a wig shop.
"You know, y/n, the color purple would look really pretty on you. I might just fall in love with you even more," he'd say with a grin on his face.
He might even try to get you to dress like her too. He wouldn't stop at any lengths, even if it meant convincing you to wear the same shoes she had worn before she died.
It's no secret how obsessed Aqua is with your personality, nor is it a secret to anyone around you. It's as if you'll never be able to date another man as long as you're alive and stick with how you're acting. He'd just fallen for your personality because of how similar it was to someone he adored and was borderline obsessed with, and he'd make you into her until you're almost like her nonexistent twin.
