    Summary

    ~~~
    Akemi only meant to meet this crazed demon, the one who destroyed her marriage, and ruined Taigen’s focus. But what she met instead was a broken and angry spirit who was arrogant, chauvinistic, patronizing, and… beautiful?

    ~~~

    Or, what really should have happened in the brothel

    Summary

    Mizu and Akemi don’t do relationships. What they do is business, late-night calls, and sex that never means anything. They don’t ask each other how their days were. They don’t cuddle. They don’t text first.

    But somehow, Mizu always ends up at Akemi’s place. Somehow, Akemi always answers when Mizu calls.

    Because the thing about them? They don’t do commitment but they don’t know how to quit each other, either.

    Summary

    Summary

    “What is he seeking.” Mizu seethes, she can feel her breath slowing. She presses further and watches as more blood marks her sword.

    “His daughter’s hand in marriage! A compatible husband!”

    This catches Mizu completely off guard. She stumbles on the ice-slicked road and barely manages to catch herself in time before nearly impaling the man.

    Or

    Mizu is a wanted man after obliterating the Shindo Dojo and their best samurai. Instead of becoming a prisoner like she might’ve guessed, the Tokunobu lord offers his daughter’s hand in marriage.

    Summary

    Nobody could know of her past. Her entire past.

     

    Nobody, besides Ringo, could know that he had been born with the build of a woman.

     

    and, maybe above all,

     

    Nobody could know that he was an omega.

    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    After a failed confrontation with Abijah Fowler, Mizu finds herself back at square one. Luckily for her, she's been proposed an offer that would aid her search for the man tremendously. The downside? serving the one couple that he had sworn would be the death of him.

    Summary

    The first time Akemi sees Mizu—glimpsed between panes of lacquered palanquin wood, as her gaze turned inevitably to the only person not kneeling, to that man, awkward and gangly and stiff, standing when everyone else bowed, with those eyes nearly hidden by an unflattering broad hat and ridiculous orange spectacles—the first time she sees her, she hates her.

    Their eyes meet. There's snow falling outside, dusting the offensively broad hat's rim. They pass. Akemi's heart skips in tiny outrage.

    ×

    The first time Mizu sees Akemi, it's on that bridge in Kyoto, prim and pretty and painted as a portrait, and she thinks that the fine, decorative gold things in her hair look difficult to make. The kind of difficult to make that tells of someone else's hard work and a thousand, thousand kitchen knives.

    The princess is beautiful, she thinks.

     

    或 / or:

    Mizu steps (staggers) in when Akemi's father sends men to bring her back, in the aftermath of the brothel bloodbath. It's only the newest in a line of questionable choices, because it seems that as of late, for whatever reason, she can't stop accidentally collecting people.

    Summary

    It has been longer than Mizu cares to admit. Their revenge has taken its toll, and years have gone by. Years in London, chasing the ghosts of white men who were much more adept than Violet or Fowler at hiding.

    Now, it is over, and Mizu must return to Japan, uncertain if the people they care about are even alive.

    Summary

    "I hear that sometimes they have women from this brothel, go to Fowler's fortress," Mizu stated with interest. "I want you to smuggle me in."

    "And how am I supposed to do that?' Madame Kaji scoffed at the suggestion.

    "As one of your girls, that's how," Mizu suggested. That hadn't originally been Mizu's plan. She was going to ask just where Fowler's fortress was and how to get into it. Though this seemed like a much better plan than having to fight their way through the many levels to reach the foreigner's level.

    "You think you can pull off being a woman," Madame Kaji derided. "Not all the makeup in the world can hide some man's masculinity."

    Mizu took off the kasa hat that they wore to hide their identity. "I am no gentleman," She took off the amber classes that she used to hide her blue eyes. "I am a woman, just like you."

    Summary

    There is only one way into the castle, a tunnel for smuggling prostitutes into the debauched hands of Abijah Fowler, deep under the water.

    She could sneak in through the tunnel, fight her way through, and drive steel through his eye until she has seen all the life fade from the other. But they will expect that. Mizu knows it, Fowler knows it, Shindo knows it.

    They will not see violence in a painted face prostitute.

    ( in which there is a whole world of Mizu's life locked in a rice trunk in her mind, forgotten until she hopes it starves itself out of memory. she knows no woman will ever forget the years of a pleasure house)

    Summary

    He’s not a good man. He could be a great one. That was what the demon had said. There is a great man in Taigen, somewhere.

    Just not with her.


    A little canon-divergent version of Akemi and Taigen's last conversation.

    Summary

    What is the Overlapped World?

    This is Universe 112421, which houses an Earth where First Contact occurred in the year 1021 AD, and history had thoroughly changed as a result of this event, reflected in the calendar. Many places are surprisingly the same, with several countries still having a parallel history to their counterparts in our world, but don't be fooled by the familiarity. This world is more than just a mirror of ours, as this world is home to alien immigrant families, unusual (but not entirely impossible) alternate paths, monsters from all sorts of folklore, a worldwide knowledge of magic and the existence thereof, several anachronistic details (if you know where to look) and some pretty advanced technology.

    A world of several stories being told, each one unique, but each one reveals a world that is home to an overlapping beauty and horror.

    That is the Overlapped World.
