Wedding HCs [Part 1]

Wedding headcanons for the lesser talked about ships bc they need more love and I will give it to them.

AquaOrca (Gang Orca x Aquamarina)

Lets ignore the fact that Jade tried to murder Gang Orca when she found out he was dating Aomi and only later came to terms with their relationship.

The wedding would be very beautiful with ocean inspired colors. Kugo's nieces would make all the decorations because they wanna help get ready for their new auntie.

For the dress, it would be inspired by Ariel's wedding dress but with more mermaid theme to it.

Aomi's anxiety rises to an all-time high because she wants the wedding to be perfect and what if she messes up? It's so bad to the point where her mothers literally had to ban any mention or talk of the wedding.

One of Kugo's nephews is the ring bearer and he gets to wear an adorable suit for it.

The day of the wedding, both of them are so excited to see each other and want to touch each other so bad but they can't because they aren't allowed to be near one another.

Jade sings a cover of one of Aomi's songs as she walks down the aisle. Everyone is in awe at how beautiful Aomi looks and even Kugo himself is brought to his knees at his wife.

Kugo has to pick up Aomi to kiss her bc he is tol and she is smol. Either way, it's a beautiful, romantic sight.

Also their rings are references to each other. Jade's has a killer whale on it and Kugo's has a clam shell bc he calls Aomi his Venus (and Venus emerged from the water in a literal clam shell).

Speaking of Venus, the cake is a parody of the birth of Venus but with Aomi. Needless to say, she's blown away by it.

AquaOrion (Orion x Aquanette)

*Aquanette belongs to @/aquajuilee

Contrary to what Sakana believed, Saizo wanted a small, intimate wedding with just friends and family. He don't have time for all the media bravado.

Ageha goes wedding dress shopping with Sakana to help her figure out what she wants. She ends up settling on a beautiful princess style dress with short sleeves.

Saizo is asking his younger brother Gen'ichiro all these questions about marriage and stuff because he got married before him and Saizo needs to be prepared for anything his role as a husband throws at him.

No particular theme but the color is indigo which looks great on the both of them.

They have the wedding at a nice place not too far from the seashore. As Saizo and Sakana kiss, a dolphin jumps up over them and it makes for an iconic wedding photo.

The cake is shaped like a seashell and is decorated with crystal candies.

DemoCat (Demoman x Black Cat)

This one goes out to @calciumcryptid

Akio wants to have a traditional Jewish wedding like his parents did and is trying to get Kuroneko on board with the idea.

As much as Kuroneko loves her baby, she's a) not religious at all/an atheist and b) feels like she'll be appropriating his religion. It's only when his mother and her have a Walter White "We're not done till I say we're done" type of convo that she agrees.

The experience is lowkey kinda harrowing for her because she never really saw herself getting married or anyone wanting to marry her (you can thank Goldeye for that) and now that it's actually happening, she feels all these emotions.

While everyone thought she was going to pick an extravagant wedding dress bc it's Kuroneko, she actually chose a rather simple looking one with black lace.

Either way, Akio thinks she looks absolutely beautiful.

Day of the wedding, Akio's mom gives Kuroneko a pair of hamsa hand earrings and a necklace with the same symbol. When asked what it meant, she was told it was a protective symbol in the Jewish faith.

Freaks out a little when she gets lifted up in the chairs by Akio's mother, his aunt, Suzy, and June at once.

StellaNox (Stellara x Nox)

Even before the wedding is announced, Taiyomi and Tsukimi already leaking shit to their friends and husbands like their name is TMZ.

Much like AquaOrion, both Umeji and Hoshimi wanted to their wedding to be private and intimate, especially with the presence of the Yonaga inner clan (though that'll be hard with the younger Sorakami sisters).

There's really nothing for them to worry about since they have experience with weddings.

Hokuto is the ring bearer and Hoshiyo is the flower girl. Meanwhile Kureko gets to be the "blessing boy" or he gets to bless Hoshimi's entrance into both the family and his life as his stepmother.

Hoshimi chooses to wear an elegant, dark blue wedding dress with stars embedded into it. It's different than her previous wedding dress, the one in which she married her first husband in.

They have the wedding in the afternoon and the party at night.

Umeji makes a toast to his new wife and makes a speech about how much he loves her and how she's lifted the darkness from his heart. For the first time in many years, people see Hoshimi become visibly flustered.

Taiyomi and Tsukimi take pictures of that and posts it to their social medias.

Civilian File: Maris Kaijura

Full Name: Maris Kaijura

Age: 17

Gender: Female (Cis, She/Her)

Nationality: Japan

Ethnicity: Black/Malaysian/Japanese

Occupation: Student, Actress

Affiliation(s): Unnamed high school, Kaijura Studios

Description:

Design notes:

Pointed and horns ears from Dad

The bubbles are a result of her Quirk. They serve the same purpose as Saizo's crystals do.

Heterchromia

Personality: As the daughter of two Pro Heroes, Maris is a natural starlet. Even though her parents tried to keep her away from the cameras for privacy reasons, it somehow always found its way back to her-- an almost natural draw to the spotlight. Growing up around actors, filmmakers, dancers, and more, Maris developed a strong love of the performing arts.

Though she does support her siblings' hero careers, Maris does not see herself doing that. She's just not meant for that kind of career. Not to mention the high risks of death and the like.

She plans to pursue more careers in entertainment as she gets older.

Quirk: Sea Monster

Maris has all the powers and abilities of a sea monster, a combination of her parents' Quirks. She has enhanced senses, an enhanced physiology, and underwater breathing like both of them do but she also has her mother's water based powers.

Family:

Saizo Kaijura | Orion (Father)

Sakana Kaijura (nee Mizuiro) | Aquanette (@julieemarine) (Mother)

Atlantia Kaijura | Nimue (Older sister)

@insomniac-jay The creation of AquaOrion in a nutshell.

sometimes

Sakana, Ryujin, Hisakata, and Mizumi all got cat smiles that came from their mom.

@insomniac-jay Should I also make the AquaOrion kids inherit the cat smile from their mom or what?

AquaOrion

So true!

Hear me out: The Mama, no scene from Fresh Prince but with AquaOrion and Mizumi

OMG! POOR MIZUMI!

The coincidence that both Sakana and her husbando work in the entertainment business. They truly are meant to be

Along with a kid who wants to be in the entertainment business. Yup, they’re meant to be.

AquaOrion Little Mermaid AU? Wrong. AquaOrion Greatest Showman AU.

UA!AquaOrion idea: The school dance is coming up and Saizo wants to ask Sakana out but he doesn't know how. So when Sakana goes to her dorm, she sees a bouquet of crystal flowers at her door with a note saying "Will you go to the dance with me? - Saizo K."

This is too cute!

THANKS JAY!!! ❤️💕♥️💙💜💗💛💖💞💚❣️💓😻😍🧡💘💝💌💟🤍🤎❤️‍🔥🖤❤️‍🩹

Valentines Ship Songs

AquaOrion (@julieemarine)

This movie is absolutely fucking rancid but the soundtrack slaps

However big, however small

Let me part of it all

Share your dreams with me

You may be right, you may be wrong

Just say that you'll bring me along

KazuMala (@peachyblkdemonslayer)

Why does my heart cry?

Feelings I can't fight

You're free to leave me

But just don't deceive me

And please

Believe me when I say "I love you"

AveRiku (@floof-ghostie)

Girl you can't deny it

Who you are and how you're feeling

Baby we're not buying

Hon we saw you hit the ceiling

Face it like a grown up

KittyMichi (@calciumcryptid)

Oh did I say too much?

I'm so in my head

When we're out of touch

I really, really, really, really, really, really like you

And I want you, do want me, do want me, too?

Makoya (@hotgirlkoriandr)

We're a thousand miles from comfort

We have traveled land and sea

But as long as you are with me

There's no place I'd rather be

Fireflowershipping/Firequartzshipping (@shinkai14)

You're picture perfect blue

Sunbathing under the moon

Stars shining as your bones illuminate

First kiss just like a drug

Andrew & Catalina (@opalofoctober)

We live in cities you'll never see on screen

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Livin in ruins of a palace within my dreams

And you know, we're on each other's team

Can’t think of anything besides Saizo and Sakana spoiling each other on Valentine’s Day and doing a beach date.

(After realizing I made Sakana’s birthday four days before Valentine’s Day, let’s hope Saizo’s card is a black card.)

Here's some prompts!

Perfect for those lovebirds!

San Francisco

May 1965

The aroma of cooked meat filled Sakana's nose as she walked out the big top. A dinner scented with hints of rosemary and basil was sure to make everyone's mouth water, which meant that their recent show had been a success.

Life at Big Top Serendipity was all Sakana could ever want, and need. All the familiar faces, sounds, and smells blessed her with the feeling of home; a place where she truly belonged. Everyone here-- from the performers to the teachers that traveled with them to even the preachers who provided Sunday service-- was family even if not by blood.

"Hello, Sakana! Dinner smells good today, don't it?" one of the clowns greeted her. His face was bare of all the colorful makeup that was usually adorned on clowns.

Sakana gave him a friendly smile. "It does. Mama was be the one making it."

Following the aroma to the cirus cook house while greeting other passing performers and staff, she peeked inside to see both her parents at the grill. They chatted happily, ever deep in their conversation.

Sakana's parents had always been her perfect image of what a truly happy couple was in this day and age, not those posters she saw of housewives in colorful dresses lighting their husband's cigars. A couple was supposed to be equal in both mind, body, and soul-- which her parents were.

Their coupling was unusual, and even subject to some nasty remarks from others, but they were persistent in their attraction to each other. Many of Serendipity's performers were grateful for the couple's kindness and generosity. Not many employers were like them. They ruled over the cirus like a benevolent king and queen.

"Mama, papa." she called out.

Selene Mizuiro and her husband both turned to see their eldest daughter peeking in through the door.

Mr. Mizuiro let out a big hearty laugh. "Guess you're ready for dinner?"

Sakana nodded. "So is everyone else."

Dinner began once everyone was seated around several tables. Tonight's was a special treat from Selene and her husband to everyone as a reward for the work to make this week's shows successful.

Ryujin, one of Sakana's younger brothers, stuffed his mouth full, earning a scolding from the youngest daughter Mizumi.

"Where to next?" he asked with a mouth full of food.

"New York City. We'll be leaving tomorrow afternoon." Sakana spoke in between eating. "Which is sad, because the weather here is much better for Papa's health."

Mr. Mizuiro had been Big Top Serendipity's ringleader for as long as Sakana and her siblings could remember. His booming voice and charms wowed any crowd in all the cities they traveled to. Nowadays it was beginning to feel like it was time for those days to be behind him. A terrible cough that overtaken him over the last few weeks, which Sakana suspected to have been caused by the frigid temperatures of a recent trip to Russia.

"Nonsense! I'm perfectly fine-" Before Mr. Mizuiro could finish, the damned cough returned. Only this time more worse than before.

"Papa!" Sakana rushed to his side. She managed to get him to rise back up and sat him down at her table. "I don't think New York is safe with all those factories up there."

A place like New York was too dangerous for the current state of Mr. Mizuiro's health, and everyone was afraid it was going to get worse.

Later that night as Sakana and her siblings were helping with the cleanup, their father's voice boomed just like it did when he was presenting their show. Only this time, it was in anger.

"I'm not giving it to you!" Mr. Mizuiro's eyes burning with anger stared back at the man in front of him.

All four Mizuiro children-- Sakana, Ryujin, Hisakata, and Mizumi-- peered into the room to see their parents seated across from some businessmen.

Not them again, Sakana felt her heart sank at the sight. For years, this particular group of businessmen had been targeting Big Top Serendipity in an effort to buy it. However, Mr. Mizuiro had been resistant.

"Mr. Mizuiro, I'm afraid you don't have a choice. Especially with the current state of your health." One of them, most likely the leader, gave Mr. Mizuiro a sarcastic chuckle and smile. "Besides, other circuses aren't pulling shows like yours."

"And it should stay that way!" Mr. Mizuiro jumped up out his seat with Selene holding his arm. "I will never sell my circus! Is that understood?"

The businessman simply and quietly nodded as he stood up. "I don't think you understand how you're messing with."

"No you don't-!" Mr. Mizuiro fell to his knees, violently coughing and hacking. Both Selene and the children rushed to his aid. Even the water they had on hand wasn't enough to quell his coughs.

Fear filled Sakana's heart when blood splat out her father's mouth. The more he coughed, the more crimson sanguine poured. It couldn't be-- was her beloved father close to death?

"I have good news and bad news."

Sakana snapped out of what felt like a trance. Her mind couldn't let go of the sight of the blood and the horrific realization of her father's health.

"What is it?" Selene asked.

"Good news is that Mr. Mizuiro is okay." The doctor pursed his lips bracing to deliver the bad news. "However, he has bronchiectasis."

"That's not too bad, right? Don't you got a cure for it?" Hisakata was ever enthusiastic, though even he likely knew that no such thing existed.

"Son, I wish, but no. There are treatments but no real cure."

Dread overcame Sakana as tears swelled in her eyes. After years of unforgettable and fantastical performances, Mr. Mizuiro, ringleader-- no, king of the famous Big Top Serendipity, had fallen. She could tell the rest of her family felt the same way from Ryujin holding Mizumi in a comforting embrace.

"I recommend he get back home immediately before his health worsens."

"We will. Thank you, doctor." Selene's face read of devastation. Time ceased to exist whenever they were together, and as some cruel punishment, it finally caught up to him.

"What does this mean, mama? Will we have to go back home?" There was no enthusiasm, or hope, in Hisakata's voice.

"Yes. I'll have to tell everyone the show's cancelled-"

"No! The show must go on!" Mr. Mizuiro's booming but hoarse voice blasted from his room. "We can go home once we're done!"

"My love, I can't risk you getting sicker the more we travel. Yes, the circus is our life, our home, but how can my heart be one without you?" Selene took his hand in her own. Her hand gently cupped his face. "I think... I think it's time to let it go."

A saddened sigh left Mr. Mizuiro's mouth. It was true that time had finally caught up to him and exposed his own mortality. He was always the stubborn type, which allowed him to become as successful as now. But he could be stubborn no longer, his body wouldn't allow it.

"I guess it is. Selene, my darling, will you and our children finish the tour? For me?"

"Of course, Papa." Sakana joined Selene at his bedside. "We'll carry on for you and everyone else."

Mr. Mizuiro smiled warmly at them, providing a small flicker of joy in a dark time. "That's my girl. Now, listen to me very closely."

Everyone gathered around in anticipation for what he had to say.

"When the media gets hold of this, those sharks will be ready to feast on our home. And when they do, they'll try to disguise themselves with good intentions. Don't fall for it. Don't let them take Serendipity away from us." Mr. Mizuiro warned them.

Sakana knew good and well that those greedy businessmen would pounce now that her father would be out their way. But neither she or her family would surrender. No matter what it took, they'd continue to fight this war.

"We won't, Papa. You can believe it."

"That's my children. The next time I'll see any of you is back in Japan."

Sakana nodded, though the eerie warning wouldn't leave her mind. These businessmen were dangerous, some with ties to the Mob. She'd have to be more diligent and controlled than ever. One wrong move and they'd never be off her.

"I'll tell the others the news. Hopefully some of the guys will pack your things and take you to the airport." Sakana held her father's hand.

Mr. Mizuiro gave them one last big smile before leaving for the night. The show would go on-- just without its king.

Mizumi: Why does Orion call you “babygirl”?

Sakana: How about we stop talking for a while.

@insomniac-jay

A Swing at Love

Chapter 3

Sakana hummed while washing her costume from today's performance. So far they'd been doing well without her father, having just finished their New York stop and concluding the entire world tour. While saddened by the news, she was also happy to be reunited with her father soon.

As she stood up to hang the laundry, the sounds of closing car doors filled her ears. She turned to see a man dressed in expensive suits walking towards her. He was also looking around at the various performers and props used in their shows.

"Can I help you?" Sakana asked.

"Hello. How are you, Miss Mizuiro?" the man asked with a greeting bow. He was an older man-- likely around her parents's age-- with a pair of aviator sunglasses over his eyes. He pulled them down to reveal his dark eyes.

Anger ignited Sakana's blood when she recognized him.

"What are you doing here, Fujimura?" Sakana clipped her costume to the clothesline before turning back to the men.

Fujimura gave her a pleasantly false smile. "I couldn't help but notice your circus was in town."

Sakana was immediately on the defensive. Ever since they'd gone back on the road, greedy businessmen have been flocking to them like vultures. It's just as her father had said-- the corporations descending on them now that he was sick. Hiroaki Fujimura was one of them, and just as frustratingly persistent as the others. Today he seemed extra chipper, which only made her more suspicious.

"I'm sure you're aware me and my associates have been looking to expand overseas, and given your circus is also based in Japan, I think it'd be a good opportunity for both of us."

"Thank you, Mr. Fujimura, but we're not interested." Sakana's sneered at him.

Fujimura chuckled. "You're mistaken, Miss Mizuiro. You see, as one of the early investors in Big Top Serendipity, I put a considerable amount into it, which now makes me a stakeholder."

Sakana's eyes widened.

"I'm here to take my equity stake. Your father left a very profitable and renowned circus behind because of his sickness, so I see fit to take care of you all and change some things about this establishment."

"And tell me, how would you do that?" Sakana was becoming impatient with the man.

Obliging her request, Fujimura pulled a list from his pocket. Apparently he'd been observing them for quite a while.

"First by relocating out of Japan and to Las Vegas. Second, you all will need a serious cast change. Some of these people are as old as me."

As Fujimura rambled on about all the changes he'd make to Serendipity, effectively destroying their way of life, her blood boiled with molten hot anger. Her father's words definitely rang true.

Finally, Sakana snapped.

"We're not selling our circus and that's final! Now get the hell off our property!"

"You don't have a choice, ma'am. Because of my early investment, I have some ownership in Serendipity. Unless you somehow have enough money to buy it from me, I suggest you prepare to be on the Vegas strip."

Vegas strip?! Just what was this man think they were?! "We won't allow this! Just because you gave my parents money doesn't you get to lord over everyone!"

Fujimura scoffed.

"Again. You, or your family, don't have a choice. They've spent too long resisting and letting my money go to waste on some traveling cirus."

Fighting back tears in her eyes, Sakana glared strongly at Fujimura. Hearing him insult everything that made Serendipity unique made her fury burn brighter. All the hard work-- blood, sweat, and tears-- her parents put into their home, gone to waste.

She wished her mother and siblings were here so she could sic them on Fujimura. She wished her father were beside her to lay down the law.

"What's going on here?" Selene walked up to Sakana and Fujimura, sporting a concerned look on her face.

Now with the Mizuiro matriarch there, Fujimura introduced himself and his plan. Like her daughter, Selene became furious.

"How dare you?! You will never own our circus and we won't be going to Vegas! If you think you can just come in and try to lord over us all, you have another thing coming!"

All Sakana could do was angrily glare at Fujimura, wishing horrible things upon him in her mind. Who did he think he was? Coming in thinking himself as a king and them as subservient subjects.

Even after the tongue lashing Selene gave him, Fujimura stood there eerily calm. Seeing his face so emotionless unnerved Sakana to no end. Part of her wondered if he was waiting for Selene to turn her back so he could strike.

Finally after a lengthy silence, he spoke again.

"I intend to collect, Mrs. Mizuiro, whether you like it or not."

He got back in his car and drove off.

Selene's fists were balled so tightly she was about to pop a blood vessel.

"Is he gone, Mama?" Mizumi asked. Her sudden voice startled both Selene and Sakana.

"Yes, Mizumi. He's gone."

"I don't like that he threatened you." Hisakata said. He wished he was big enough to protect his mother and his sisters, but would have to settle with using his words for now.

Night came but Sakana still burned with anger. How dare Fujimura come here and declare he has the right to Serendipity?! That snake! And then the threat he gave Selene? Just what was he planning?

Her anger turned to sadness when she thought about everyone else. The clowns, acrobats, and artists had been like family to her since she was born. To think that Fujimura would be getting rid of them, destroying years of meaningful relationships, could become a reality.

I need to do something... Sakana got up and quietly made her way to the kitchen. Maybe a drink and small snack would clear her head. Pouring a glass of lemonade with a ham sandwich on the side, Sakana sat at the table. Her mind pondered with possible solutions to combat Fujimura, but they all turned up as dead ends.

Sighing, her hand reached for the newspaper and looked through the pages. As she mindlessly flipped, something caught her eye.

Don't be shy! Become a mail order bride!

Wealthy, lonely men seek on demand wives from foreign countries

Checking to see if anyone was around her, Sakana tore the ad out the newspaper. She may have found a way to save her family.

The next morning was rough when Fujimura came back. Serendipity's cast was in the middle of packing for Japan when he showed up. But he wasn't alone-- some of his business partners tagged along with him. As Selene chewed them out, the younger Mizuiro children wondered where their older sister was.

"Has anyone seen Sakana?" Ryujin asked.

Mizumi and Hisakata shook their heads, though they were worried. The last thing they needed was her running off.

"You sure you wanna do this?"

Sakana nodded. While it may seem like she'd run out of options, that was so far from the truth. If she was going to fight someone like Fujimura, she needed to level the playing field. She needed the resources and money he had, and this was the only way to get it without risking her family into debt.

"Alright then." The man running the mail order bride agency took her name down. "Where'd you like to go?"

"Japan."

The agency owner hummed. "You're in luck, lady. I got a bunch heading to Japan this afternoon by seaplane."

A small smile crossed Sakana's face. "What time is it leaving?"

"12 sharp. Be there or get left."

Sakana nodded and left to get ready. Fujimura may have thought he had her cornered with yesterday's revelations, but she refused to give up.

Saizo brushed his hair as he prepared for the day. With much on his agenda today, it was utmost important he look his best. Especially since he was expecting company.

If ibu's words are true, then maybe I'll find the woman I truly desire, he buttoned his shirt. Now fully dressed, he headed downstairs to the kitchen for breakfast. His bride was expected to arrive this afternoon, so he had to be prepared.

Sakana looked out the window at the vast sea below her. Dozens of other mail order brides were on board with her, all headed to Japan. When she returned to the circus to get her things, she told her family that she had to go but that her plan would be explained once they got back to Japan.

"We'll be landing in a short while, ladies."

Sakana clutched the handle of her suitcase. Was this risky? Yes. But it was worth it to save her family from someone's greed. Hopefully they'd find it in their hearts to forgive her. She couldn't imagine how worried they must've been when she wasn't at Serendipity this morning.

When the plane landed, Sakana joined the other mail order brides as they got off. While they were excited, she just mindlessly strode into the airport. Being home should've been joyful. It meant she'd see her father again.

Father...oh lord I know he's gonna- Sakana's thought was cut when she bumped into someone. They were sturdy, strong.

"My apologies."

Sakana looked up to see the most beautiful pair of eyes she'd ever seen. One was a deep dark brown while the other was as blue as the ocean.

"I-it's my fault. I should've been paying attention." Sakana rubbed her arm. She hasn't been back for a minute and she's already running around like a chicken with its head cut off.

"You wouldn't happen to be with the mail order brides, would you?"

Her heart stopped. "W-what makes you think that?"

"Because," the man rubbed the back of his neck. "I'm actually here to pick up one. The agency told me her name was...Sakana? Is that you?"

Sakana nodded. Now she was beginning to regret her decision. However, she reminded herself that she'd rather be in an unhappy, loveless marriage than let Fujimura take Serenpidity. "I'm her. You are?"

"Kaijura. Kaijura Saizo."

@julieemarine

Saizo lives in a very nice house with a pool, hot tub, ans Jacuzzi so please imagine the other Mizuiro siblings trying to come with Sakana to his place so they can use his hot tub or Jacuzzi

Oh, man. Where do I start? I just know that the other Mizuiro sibs are gonna beg Sakana to hell and back until she relents and lets them in the jacuzzi.
