[Touken Ranbu] Father and Daughter Are Both Saniwa

One day, a fox showed up at my house.

"Would you be willing to serve as a Saniwa?"

"What? Didn't I already do that fifteen years ago?"

--My dad, in utter shock.

"What the heck is a Saniwa?"

--Me, completely baffled.

"Explain yourself. Who exactly are you looking for?"

--My mom, holding a cleaver and planning to make an extra meal of it.

Here's what happened.

I became the fifth Saniwa of a Honmaru that was in pretty bad shape.

And the first Saniwa had been my dad.

[Note]

A silly, absurd story born from a random idea. The Saniwa looks obedient and timid on the outside, but has a rich inner life and is a socially awkward wisecracker.

After fifteen years, and four Saniwa, the Honmaru finally remembered the terror of being ruled by absurdity (not really).

Lots of OOC and plot holes. Read at your own risk.

The official pairing is in the bonus chapter: Mikazuki. Pair whoever you like in the main story, it's up to you.
