(Note: Considering Yamabiki's whole horny cannibal mpreg deal in canon, I'm totally waiving my pregnancy DNW for this fandom. Go wild.)

I feel so blessed that this ship exists. All throughout canon I kept thinking "oh man wouldn't it be iddy if...but there's no way they'll go there." And then they went there. Every time.

I'm happy with all sorts of content for these two. Post-canon where they're Happy and Okay and finally get to have a (somewhat) normal relationship with another human! In-canon angsty smut leaning into all the body horror and breeding! Post-canon happy smut leaning into the body horror and breeding - but in a chill, consensual way! Both of them getting to finally work through their (many, many) traumas! So many possibilities. Some specific prompts:

* Breeding Kink-Forced Breeding - Hear me out here. Canon divergence where Yamabiki tries to execute his cloning plan earlier in the timeline. The higher-ups spying on them see "The weird mutant prettyboy does some strange sexual ritual with the Regenerator -> more Regenerators???" Cue them seizing Natsune and Yamabiki and drugging them up to try and make a new set of Reproducers.

* Overcoming Past Abuse/Consensual Sex Causes Flashbacks To Previous Trauma - Sorry, Yamabiki. ;_;

* Inexperienced character is eager but doesn't know what they want - A few years after escaping the Cradle, Natsune's chronological age gives him a surprise when he stumbles into a very late puberty. Suddenly he has all these hormones and desires and no idea what to do with them. Yamabiki has a few ideas.

* Cannibalism to Survive - For a manga called Starving Anonymous, I am a bit surprised we never got to see Natsune letting Yamabiki nibble on him just for sustenance. How long were they down there? C'mon, he must have been hungry!

* Mpreg-Man didn’t realize his bizarre biology would let him become pregnant - Okay, in Yamabiki's case it's more like "Man knew damn well his bizarre biology would let him become pregnant, but didn't realize that having sex was an easier fertilization method than cannibalism."

(Note 1: I've both read the manga and seen the movie. I wrote my requests with the manga in mind, simply because manga Kakihara is a lot more openly horny for Anjo, but I'm A-okay with movie based fic!)

(Note 2: I'm waiving my genderbend DNW for this fandom.)

True story: I had the urge to watch a horror movie one night. I saw that Ichi the Killer was available to rent on Youtube, but I wasn't sure if it was the uncensored one. The good news is, it was. The better news is, while I was searching for that answer, I killed some time by reading the entire original manga. All 100+ chapters of it. In one night. My scrolling finger was sore the next day.

Needless to say I fell in love with Mister Masao "I'm Not Gay For Anjo, I Just Like Jerking Off While Looking At His Picture And Crying His Name" Kakihara. He's just...such an unrepentant, cruel, immoral asshole with absolutely no redeeming qualities as a human, and yet you can't help but admire his love for his boss. And, y'know, his love for getting beaten to a pulp to serve his boner. Honestly, just lean into their canon dynamic and keep Anjo from kicking the bucket, and I'll be happy.

* Society Doesn't Approve of Relationship but Characters Aren't Ashamed - Clearly, Kakihara's inclinations are common knowledge across the underworld, and he gets plenty of flack for it. How violently he reacts? Probably depends on his mood, and whether Anjo is there to rein him in or not.

* Hurt/Comfort-Character doesn't care about own well-being - Anjo has to put his foot down around the third time Kakihara returns to the clan headquarters dripping blood and snot all over the nice carpet. Think of the carpet, Kakihara.

* Alternate Universe-everyone is a woman - Look. Something about a sexually aggressive masochistic crime lord lady and her indulgent older woman boss who beats her up to keep her happy? Makes my id happy.

* Outside POV-Speculation on characters' lives - I am so, so here for a look into how other yakuza view Anjo and Kakihara. How many cocky young criminals made the mistake of assuming Kakihara is just Anjo's boytoy? What does a new inductee to Anjo's clan think as they slowly realize that no, Kakihara isn't just putting on an act to intimidate people, he really is Like That? Does a well-meaning but naive outsider assume that Kakihara is being abused against his will and try to "help?" Just...give me all of people trying to process what the hell the relationship is between Anjo and his enforcer.

Whump - Self-mutilation due to body issues

These two. Theeese two. What a dependent, manipulative, grooming-tastic melting pot of dysfunctional incest. Lean into the wrongness, please and thank you. I'm happy with something set pre-canon, or, for an extra layer of iddy angst, a post-canon framing device where Enju's brothers have to inform him that, uh, no, he did not have a perfectly normal relationship with their father. Bonus points for lots of Enju calling Nurarihyon "sir."

* Whump-Self-mutilation due to body issues - Enju's body dysmorphia hit so good and so hard. I am here for him trying to hurt/punish himself for not being "pretty" enough for his father.

* Praise Kink - Enju literally wilts at the first sign he's displeased his father in some way, and instantly perks up at the first sign of a compliment. It's all too easy for Nurarihyon take advantage of his mental instability to mold him into the perfect son.

* Hurt/Comfort-Character didn’t understand they were abused & now does & has crisis - Now that he's living with his whole family, Enju happily tells Hiiragi about how his father always treated him special and showed him so much love and... Wait, why does his brother look so horrified?

Food Fantasy

- Pizza/Whiskey -

Tags:
Alternate Universe - A keeps B as a sex slave (setting remains the same)
Alternate Universe - Bad Guy(s) Win
Alternate Universe - Student/Teacher
Brainwashing
Break the Cutie
Corruption
Hurt/Comfort - Comforter is the One Who Hurt Them
Makeover - reluctant or unwilling
Manhandling
noncon
Whump - Torture

My needs are simple. I just want the Scottish snake bastard to terrorize the cheery Italian twink. That is all.

* Makeover-reluctant or unwilling - Pizza obviously gets some uncomfortable flashbacks upon being dressed in his skin outfit. Probably because Whiskey preferred him in that look.

* Alternate Universe-Student/Teacher - "Hey, don't you think Professor Vita's kinda creepy? He's been picking on Pizza, like, every day. And he keeps calling him to his office. It's probably nothing, right?"
