MURAMASA SOUKI REAL!!

ryoma is a weird character for me because he's cute and playful and he likes pulling tricks on his sister, while simultaneously being too serious all the time. but he's also very caring like the fact that he went around asking people how to get close to azura and how he tells silas to stay with corrin even though he's a nohrian.

and unlike xander who's kind of distant because he has to be the perfect crown prince and kind of has a slightly worse relationship with leo because of it (though loves him dearly), he actually a good relationship with takumi, despite the latter's inferiority complex. like their supports follow the same beats (little brother has an outburst, big brother comforts them), but leo and xander take a nosedive while ryoma and takumi don't have to have some big patch up

and like obviously, i think it's because he didn't have a dad at all, but the memories he did have of sumeragi were warm. so he had to step up sort of as a father figure to takumi and sakura, unlike xander who also has to contend with his dad being alive so that kind of warps their relationship a little to being more competitive

and he loves his stepmom despite the fact that he must've been like seven or eight years old when sumeragi brought her into the family and his birth mom was still around, to the point where he actively expresses happiness when orochi tells him what she was like when no one was looking. like I'm pretty sure the "mother" he references in his sakura support is mikoto too. he's such a mama's boy

and when he shows up again in the story and teases corrin by asking her if she recognizes him...it's so cute!

but i just can't vibe with the fact that he must've realized his brother was dead, right after their mother, and the first thing he did was join up with scarlet, leaving his sisters even MORE worried and the kingdom without a king. and there isn't any conversation on it!

like it's been some time since i played that chapter but everyone's like "we're so relieved you're okay!" and no one makes the connection.

and i'm saying that he probably realized that because takumi is said to have fallen into the canyon. and it's said they were cornered and fought some soldiers off.

like maybe i'm wrong, maybe they escaped in opposite directions and takumi fell after, but then why did no one inform him of this? they could've included it in saizo's support, or maybe hinoka's. like don't get me wrong, hinoka's support is very cute but there should've been some conversation about that!

Ryoma Birthday Headcanons

It’s the first day of May, and so that means that it’s Ryoma’s birthday! Per the usual when there’s a Hoshidan royal with a birthday, I have to write a set of birthday headcanons to celebrate them. Hopefully you enjoy this year’s round!

‣ So you know how for years, there’s been that joke about that Ryoma’s probably like, really annoyed that Xander is taller than him? My hot take on this is that initially, he didn’t really care. Whatever, right? It’s not like he can control his height by sheer force of will, and Ryoma quite likes not having to duck through the average doorway. However, once everyone else started pointing out as a big deal to him… yeah, admittedly, he started to get more grumpy about it. Only problem is, he won’t admit to being grumpy about it, so he’s just standing there like “yeah whatever, I don’t care” when it is just so, so painfully obvious that he cares.

‣ You remember how last year, for Sakura's birthday, I mentioned that one of her siblings lost a tooth by falling down the stairs when they were little? Yeah, that was Ryoma. He was about six when it happened, and of course it was on one of the big stair cases leading up to Castle Shirasagi. Thankfully he was one of those kids that was just like, strangely durable, so he didn’t really cry when it happened. He was far more excited that one of his teeth had been knocked out, and kept trying to excitedly show Sumeragi and Ikona, who were so busy checking him over for cuts and bruises and whispering to each other “oh my gods we’re such terrible parents” to initially understand what their son was trying to show them. Sumeragi used to love to tell that story to people. Fuuga still laughs about it.
