[CoC/Frog Disciple Ritual] Daily Life in Frog Disciple Village for a DK and a Shrine Maiden

Hello, this is a player character from a mecha mod doing after-sales support for their own product.

Hello, as you can see, this isn't even the original AU. Tkmgr, what are you writing? (shakes them) But I love the setting so much. Have I been manipulated, teacher?!

Hello, this is an AU where Ho4 and her cat swap identities! That means my Ho4 becomes the white-haired shrine maiden from the priest's family, and the original white-haired character becomes a black-haired frog disciple Ho4.

Hello, my Keeper redrew that white-haired character, so he doesn't have a spiky head. Please don't use him as a substitute.

Hello, one last thing: the author only updates when they happen to remember. I wrote all of this myself, so rest assured.

Jin Dao You x Yun Jing Qingyi

[Relationship Status]

!! They are not dating!!

You -> Qingyi: Likes her, has a crush on her, but is so tsundere he'll never admit it. In public, they're rivals competing for first place on the class exams. In reality, he feels like the whole class knows he's secretly in love with his shrine maiden classmate. He thinks he dislikes her and is too proud to admit it, but he just can't do anything about her. Even when he knows the shrine maiden is setting him up, he willingly walks right into it. Other than exam scores, he can't beat Qingyi at anything.

Qingyi -> You: Openly in love with him. Everyone in the class can tell Qingyi likes him except You himself. She's said things that sound like confessions, but because she acts flippantly and often doesn't tell the truth, he doesn't believe her. She was sickly as a child and could only stay home, but You came to visit and play with her, keeping her company throughout her childhood, so she grew very fond of him. But she's too proud to admit it first or confess outright.

[Additional Details]

The priest's family needs to preserve its bloodline, so Qingyi, as the family's daughter, must marry a close relative. Her fiance is her cousin, five years younger, and they will marry when she comes of age.

You can also just read this as an original character story, since it's already an AU anyway (smiles).

Also, this isn't serialized. Each chapter is standalone, and the author moves on from stories quickly, so updates could stop at any time (not that anyone's reading it anyway!).

Theme: If you like her, just tell her!
