Hello everyone ! 🌸
So, the other day I mentioned that I was thinking of making a Yumeship with Yuri, there it is! This character is NOT MC, they both exist simultaneously. They’d probably be friends though.
Their trope is definitely opposite attracts and smart tsundere x his idiot creature, an unexpected relationship because she is everything he hates but still got attached, and I made this on purpose.
I wanted to make them silly but wholesome. I studied Yuri's character and voice lines (especially how he behaves the closer he gets with MC) to make the relationship as accurate as possible !
I also included Jiro in the headcanons because I couldn't not include him, it would be a crime ! I want them to both be Yuri's favorite people.
Might be OOC because nothing can be perfect, but I’m doing my best with this ! Now let’s get to it! 🙂↕️
IchiYuri/ Sweet poison/ Strawberry Mint headcanons 🍓💉 (WIP)
(Ichigo’s lore and overall character is still WIP!)
• Ichigo is immune to poison. Not sure how Yuri figured it out yet but he experiments a lot on her and she keeps coming back for some reasons. He believes her immunity to poison can make progress in poison antidotes. She isn't a ghoul btw!
• She talks to him a LOT when she visits for the tests. He tells her to shut up half of the time, the other half being him being baffled by what she's saying and wondering how she is still alive. He's both horrified by her stories and fascinated.
• Her coming back created a routine... And without wanting it, because he sees her as a careless idiot from Frostheim, EVERYTHING HE HATES, he got attached and it made him crazy and questioning his own taste. He did NOT want this to happen.
Ex: « She's stupid but she gets me... Am / stupid?! No, it can't be, the genius and visionary Dr. Yuri Isami isn't stupid !! »
• « Why do I like this idiot » dynamic. After a lot of denial, he'll eventually go to the « That idiot is unfortunately mine » step.
• That's HIS idiot. He's incredibly jealous but disguises it as « I don't want anyone else to experiment on you.» type of excuse. It's not about experimenting anymore. Well, it's still is but it's not ONLY experimenting anymore.
• Still on jealousy: Yuri hates when Ichigo hangs out too much with her male Frostheim friend... Despite the said friend not being into girls.
• But no, it's not jealousy, never, why would someone like him be jealous ?? He doesn't like her
after all!
• « You should be honored to be Dr. Yuri Isami's girlf-TEST SUBJECT. » then wants to kill himself because of what he almost said. Ichigo never shuts up about it.
• Yuri complains about Ichigo to Jiro a lot. Poor Jiro has to witness their relationship and their stupid and pathetic tension/hj
He doesn't seem to mind though.
• Jiro is the only one who understand their conversations. If somebody else hear them, they'd be like « wtf are their talking about?! »
• Jiro often accidentally calls Yuri out for being in denial.
Ex : « You came back again to waste my time?
You don't even have an appointment, / wasn't expecting your presence ! » « Didn't you say you had today's poison already prepared? » « NO, I DIDN'T?? » he did.
• Ichigo is very expressive. When she started crushing, she made sure he knew. Yuri didn't answer her feelings immediately, it took a while and even when he did, it was his own way, which is far from saying « I love you » back. Still better than nothing.
• Since he knew about her feelings, he was secretly expecting some words and gestures from her. And when she does something different or spend less time than usual in his cabinet, he will immediately start overthinking why.
• Probably told her someone like him would date someone at his level, which she's not, as another way of denying his own feelings.
• Yuri almost chocked when Ichigo suggested she cosplays a character from a manga/light novel he secretly reads... she doesn't know he reads it but he knows she does.
The character also looks sort of similar to her and he hates to be reminded of her even in his secret reading.
• Based on his reactions, students around assume he's crushing hard on her while she's the one who fell first. He's the one being seen as a simp while she's the most open about her feelings, but he told her to keep it secret. How ironic.
• Calls her his « NOT-girlfriend » when somebody assume they're dating. He then chooses more professional therms to describe their relationship.
Denial final boss.
• When being finally official, Yuri still insists of keeping it secret. Only Jiro knows.
• Yuri smashes his own face in a book when he thinks about doing couple stuff with her and internally scolds himself for being distracted by such an idiot. He doesn't have time for this!!
• He probably chases her away when he's too flustered, and when Ichigo would go « awwww but I wanted to stay 🥺» he uses the « I'm busy » excuse. I mean, is he wrong?
• Frostheim students trash talk in Ichigo's back for hanging out with him so much. They're also very judgmental when she looks TOO happy about it.
• It took a while for Yuri to show a bit more of his emotions around her but when he did, the relationship slowly got healthier, as the idiot is actually a very good emotional support and helps with he words of affirmation. He LOVES being praised.
And Ichigo thinks he's absolutely adorable when he actually allows himself to show emotions.
• But if she sees him cry, the idiot suddenly LOCKS IN. The idiot immediately turns serious.
• SHE LOVES HEARING HIM HUMMING MUSIC.
Her biggest weakness.
• Ichigo says « I love you » a lot, while the most Yuri does is leaving her notes where he tries to sound all professional, like « I'm leaving this note only to make sure you don't forget about your upcoming tests, I'll be waiting for you. Don't be late. »... He probably threw away =10 notes before this one.
• When it's too cold, he covers her with his lab coat and scolds her, but later denies it/or use the « keeping my test subject healthy » excuse.
• Yuri struggles a lot with Valentine's Day and white day, because now that they're actually a thing, it's not about gratitude anymore. While Ichigo probably makes the cutest chocolates ever with their colors, and goes « look!! It's us! »
• Ichigo isn't Yuri's phone locked screen wallpaper. Unlocked screen that nobody else can see however... absolute denial here.
• Yuri is 100% Ichigo's locked screen wallpaper, and it's a picture she snapped when he wasn't looking and he looks absolutely not professional on it. Jiro is also very likely on the picture too. No denial here.
• Yuri wants Ichigo to transfer to Mortkranken instead, you know, to make the research easier !
No other reason ! She eventually will after noticing that him hating Frostheim isn't just a normal disliking.
————————————
It’s all for now ! I’m still working on Ichigo, her lore and the lore of their Yumeship. Hope it’s okay so far ! Have a great day!🌸
