MIRROR MIRROR
With the sleepwalking curse over, everyone will have some time to rest and recuperate—until Jack Frost comes barging in with news of a clue on how to help his beloved Ice Queen who still remains asleep. The clue was the mirror shard that was in her chest, and there are theories that it may have been a fragment of a much stronger, powerful mirror she had been given some time ago. Problem is, he can't find it nor can he remember who gave it to her. He does, however, have a magic incantation that will allow people to enter mirrors and hopefully find a trace. Unfortunately, this horrendously backfires and we have mirror chaos instead. Dammit, Jack.
More details on everything can be found here. We will request any thread submissions for certain prompts during AC .
I. REVEREIN
It all begins in Reverein, where there's a strange shift in the air upon Jack's attempt to cast the spell. But instead of affecting just one mirror, it reflects off the surface and spreads out to the entire town, hitting every reflective surface instead. Ripples can be seen before the surfaces still, but it's too late. Every reflective surface—glass, mirror, window—is under a different effect because of the botched spell.
And some are being unwittingly pulled into them.
Fortunately It is possible to communicate and even watch people from the other side of the mirror, but it's only through certain mirrors and at certain times. It also will be temporary, so while one mirror might work one time, it may not work again.
A. Strange Reflections. While some mirrors may still reflect proper images, many will have…unusual changes.

🪞 You are what you see. Whether it's an odd hairstyle, change in skin color, or style of clothing in the reflection, suddenly the viewer will look exactly like what's reflected. The most extreme is a different form entirely.
🏡 Glimpses of home. Everyone will have a rare glimpse of their home world, and these can be instances from the past, present, or even a limited future. They are just reflections and cannot be interacted with, and future reflections may be blurry to prevent the person from seeing too much. For those who have memory issues, such visions will also be blurry, but perhaps they can help stir some things…
🔮 Most desired. Mirrors that have a bit of a pink hue to them will reflect the viewer's most desired "thing." It could be an object, person, place, or even a general idea. However, if not careful the viewer may become trapped in a trance and will need to be removed or smash the mirror.


D. The Unknown. Appearing in both the Mirror World and Reverein will be a strange mirror masked, black cloaked figure called "The Unknown." It traverses through the mirrors and through the walls, seeking those with happy reflections and will try to corrupt them with nightmares. People on both sides of the mirrors will be able to confront and try to stop the Unknown, though beware its chocolate attacks.
II. MIRROR WORLD
Everything in this "Mirror World" is, in a word, chaotic. Imagine an AI-generated monstrosity based off of Picasso, Escher, and Dr. Seuss, where everything seems to be upside down, backwards, colors everywhere and nowhere, and everything feels so fragmented that one step feels like walking towards the edge of a cliff. In a way it's nightmarish in an unusual sense, and those inside can feel that touch of "madness" that seeps through the cold air.
Beware the strange creatures in the Mirror World. They are grotesque monstrosities, many of them looking as if they were stitched together from different parts. Fortunately they are susceptible to weapons and dreamotion and those inside the Mirror World will find they are able to use different abilities, especially those with reflective properties.




Only upon finding a mirror that leads back to Reverein, but they will also need help from the outside. Someone from within Reverein must also be there to physically reach in and pull them out—while hopefully not accidentally be pulled in themselves.
I'VE NOTICED LMAO
Even after that little stunt, he's quick to offer wrestling!Hiyori a hand up should she need it, idly straightening out her hair as she dusts herself off. It's a little nerve-wracking to be in the presence of one so devoted to her sports hobby, but at the same time it makes him smile, seeing a path Hiyori could take if she so chose it.]
You okay? Nothing bruised? Didja want a drink of water first?
[He can't help being a little concerned for her - both of her - after seeing them tussle so hard. So enthusiastic! Passionate! He wishes he had her gumption for something beyond practical things like cooking. Although he still has plenty of love for Hiyori, as proven when the double's eyes settle on him and make him blush shyly. Still, he returns it with a smile. Hiyori is Hiyori, whatever aspect of her is most prominent.
He shifts to face the original and gives a happy nod, a little rainbow forming behind him.]
I think you're right. Thank you so much, Hiyori...
heh 🌟
I, I'm fine. Let's... just go home.
[ yep, still hiyori. deep down, just like all the others are still yato. after batting him away, wrestleyori squeezes blondato's hand while staring at her sneakered feet.
realyori smiles gently at the happy nod and that rainbow behind him. one down. it'll be sad, in a way, to see them all leave. they can all be assured they won't have to do it alone, though. not a single one. ]
Okay! Who's next?
[ BACK TO THE MIRROR.
it isn't long before there are just as many hiyoris as there are yato. it's very cramped in the bathroom. they'll have to do this in pairs. there's a more NYAyori with cat ears to go with her cat tail and many cat puns. there's doctor hiyori, in a white coat and stethoscope. there's traditional hiyori, in a kimono and looking very reserved. she and military yato would get along. there's idol hiyori, inspired by yato's bodily possessions she assumes. finally, there's (and perhaps the MOST EMBARRASSING) - what she can only call devout hiyori. her darkest not!secret.
she's pretty sure yato will get a GOOD KICK out of the "YATOGAMI LOVE" headband she wears. as well as the shirt she wears with his FLIRTY WINKING FACE PLASTERED ON IT. all the other hiyoris can hardly bear to look at her without going BRIGHT FUCKING RED, too.
they stand shoulder to shoulder before hiyori stands on the toilet, clapping to get everyone's attention. ]
Alright!! Now that you're all here, you know your mission. Pair up with one of the Yato outside!
[ they all give affirming responses (especially YATO LOVE hiyori, she's the loudest) and start heading into the hallway. surprise! yatos!!
job done, hiyori is the last to leave the bathroom. ]
⚫ 💞
Yeah...! Alright, then. Everything will be fine with you there.
[With his loneliness assuaged, he cuddles up next to wrestle!yori in a corner of the bathroom, talking in quiet whispers, paying her all manner of sincere compliments. He quite likes the domineering personality, naturally.]
This is gonna take a while, huh?
[Comes regular!Yato's wry observation as they start things up again. Maybe not to produce enough Hiyoris (it's like heaven in here...!) but to get them all back where they belong. There's just so many...!
But as each Hiyori arrives, Yato can't help greeting her with gratitude and gusto. Nekori with her cat ears gets special attention to those as he begs her for a feel, gently massaging the pair of fuzzy protrusions with a blissed out expression on his face. He wouldn't mind having her to snuggle with in the mornings, that's for sure.
The rest are equally paid attention to: Doctor Iki gets begged for a check-up (he doesn't need it), traditional Hiyori gets the suave treatment complete with hand kiss, idol!Hiyori is begged for a song just for him before she goes, but most of all it's the final version that captures Yato's attention, of course.
Everything from the crazy headband to her shirt have him beaming with unbridled delight as he takes her by both hands and kisses them then her cheek. T-There really is a part of Hiyori that adores him as much as he does her...! He couldn't possibly be happier, except if they were to all stay and be his harem. But that wouldn't be fair to them or himsel(ves)f.
And speaking of his selves, there's practically a riot when the herd of Hiyori emerge from the bathroom. There's surprised shouts, gleeful cheers, and at least one happy curse ringing out amid the pairing up. Thankfully due to their natures it doesn't take long before they're paired off, each one a picture of happiness at having someone special just for them.
Yato himself feels a twinge of sadness watching them, but ultimately knows they can't all remain in this world. There's just not enough room for more than one of them at a time. Turning to the original Hiyori, he slips his hand into hers with a fond smile.]
...thank you, Hiyori. You really are a compassionate person.
omg it me
despite yato's comments about it taking a while, hiyori is far more organized than his gaggle of goofs. one by one, they come out. as for getting them back? yeah, okay, that might take a while.
hiyoriginal sees yato greet each version of herself. blushing madly at him begging to touch nekori's ears (which she allows and purrs at) before hiyori can't take it and separates them. asking dr. iki for a check-up is a facepalm while the doctor laughs somewhat and agrees, putting her stethoscope to yato's heart to tell him he's fit and perfectly healthy. and, anyway, wasn't actual!suave yato in the other room?! reserved hiyori puts her mouth behind her unkissed hand with an "oh my" while hiyoriginal grabs yato's neck scarf and pulls him away with a "would you STOP?"
and he doesn't. asking hiyidol for a song, she gives him a sweet lil diddy combined with a wink and a blown kiss BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IDOLS DO FOR THEIR FANS.
finally, with bated breath, she awaits his reaction to the yatobsessed hiyori. she's too ashamed to intervene on him, then. especially when the clone squeals at him kissing her and reacts by throwing her arms around him with "I LOVE YOU YATOGAMI YOU'RE MY FAVORITE GOD."
they can never talk about this again. never.
the house has BEEN chaos but it grows to astronomical levels when all the yatos and all the hiyoris are together. the only hiyori that has trouble picking ONE (1) yato is, of course, the obsessed one. she wants them all. hiyoriginal shoves her at the one yato that doesn't have a partner and calls it a day.
she's off in the corner, watching as each pair heads to the mirror when a hand finds hers. startled, she looks over at him. at the sight of his fond smile her heart thrashes. heat floods her entire face. ]
I...! I-I just. [ then she looks away, turning her attention to blondyato and wrestleyori in the very back of the line holding hands. just as they are. her head leans gently on his blond one and hiyori flusters at how easily they show affection. ]
It was something I could do to help them all. What's important is that everyone is happy.
[ after watching him dote over them all, something comes to mind. gathering her courage, hiyori turns to face yato. ] One of your clones asked me something. I want to... ask you the same thing.
Which side of me do you like the best...?
it issss lol
Nodding at her answer, he threads their fingers together to make the hold just that more close.]
Yeah, but you didn't have to. Neither did your other selves. It takes a special kind of person to let themselves be exposed like that just to help others.
[It couldn't have been easy on her, he knows. She's so guarded about her more personal feelings, like her love of wrestling and her affection for him. Allowing him to see all sides of herself up close and personal is about as close as they've gotten to being intimate. It's something he'll appreciate for a long, long time.
Especially when she decides to face him head-on and ask that question. For a minute he regards her quietly, humming as though in thought, before--]
Maybe it's cheating, but I think the original is best. All of your sides are great in their own way, but your yourself are more than the sum of your parts. Like a diamond, you shine more brightly when each aspect of you lights up the other parts.
[Leaning in, he dares to brush his lips against hers.]
I could never choose to have just one part of you, even your fangirl side.
1/2
though impulse wants her to pull away from the inundation of skin contact, between every finger and every groove from weaving their hands, hiyori fights it.
because while it's a lot, it's also rather nice. besides, they're a couple now. they've been holding hands before that. what she hadn't known? is how well yato knows her. over time, the more he talks, the more her eyes widen.
r-right. her question.
and the answer is just like hers. if there were ever any doubts whatsoever in her mind (there aren't, not anymore) that being honest and upfront about her feelings was the wrong choice?
there isn't anymore. a smile steadily grows. a bloom of joy on her lips and reaching up to her eyes. ]
;u;
KISSED
SO GENTLY!!!!!
AT HER FANGIRL SIDELKDJLDSGKDGJLKS ]
Don't call her a fangirl.
[ that is precisely what she was
is, deep down. his most devoted follower ]
;w;
For when he does peer at her, curiously, he can't help feeling a surge of overwhelming love for the girl who saved his life so many times. But it's more than just that. It's the way she smiles, the crinkle at the corners of her eyes when she does, making his heart beat that much stronger.
He has no right to tease her about being a fangirl when he's the biggest one for her of all.
And yet--]
My favorite Yatoite, then?
[He's absolutely doing this to torment her.
Lovingly.
They're a couple now, so it's allowed, right? He'll accept his punishment if it's not, though. A smack would be worth flustering her just a little more, seeing her cheeks a bit redder.]
holds this thread gently,,,,,,,,,
at that point, hiyori tries to storm away, but he's being dragged along because their hands are still locked together. ]
Call her a Yatoist, at least!!
[ it's cuter. also, that's not a "no"
from behind, it's clear her ears have gone just as red as her face. ]
rocks it softly~
Mmm'kay. Yatoist Hiyori~
[Teasing her is such fun, but he doesn't want to push too far. So hurrying to catch up, he gets his other arm around her in a one-armed hug from behind, leaning in to rest his chin on her shoulder as he whispers in her ear.]
My precious believer...
nurtures it, watches it growdkjglskd
but really
behind her, the sound of his quiet chuckling is reassuring. more than embarrassing in any case. hiyori wishes for yato to achieve his dreams and become the god he wants to be. one of fortune. that, he knows. what he might not know is; hiyori also sincerely wishes for his happiness. if not more.
his arm around her middle stops her in her stomping tracks. though she doesn't throw him off, she never - not once - stops blushing. if she could get more red, his whispering in her ear would manage it.
p-precious...
rather, she raises her shoulder nearest his mouth and tilts her head in the opposite direction. ]
Th, that tickles.
[ PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE SAID THAT ]
harvests the seeds from it 🌻
But that's okay, he still loves her anyway, if not more so because of it. It's so cute, so her. Not privy to her more secret feelings, he merely assumes she's having a bit of a pouting session, one that can hopefully be thwarted by showering affection upon her as proof that he doesn't mean his laughter maliciously.
No, it's meant with all the love he can muster, felt right from the depths of his heart. Even if he can do little to stop her embarrassment entirely.
So why not play into it?
Grinning, he leans in closer and blows softly, right at her ear.
Feel free to smack at will, Hiyori.]
SEED......
there isn't a smack. surprisingly enough, yeah. hiyori shrieks at the air tickling her ear. tingles race up her spine and she starts squirming furiously in his arm to get away from her MISCHIEVOUS AS HELL god boyfriend who just had a whole ass harem for her pair up with a whole ass harem for him.
all of it with laughter. ]
S-stop! Yato! It's sensitive!!
[ HIYORI THAT'S THE WORST THING YOU COULD SAY TO YATO YOU AIRHEAD ]
WHEEZES......
Which is probably at least part of the reason his hold on her only tightens as he drags her back against him, sucking in a huge breath in order to let it out low and slow against her ear again, although the attempt is broken in places by laughter that he finally gives into.]
Sorry, sorry--!
[It's some of the warmest, most heartfelt laughs that he's ever let out around her - or anyone in probably several hundred years. With his attempts to tease having failed, he instead noses at her shoulder happily, letting out a content hum.]
Y'know the more you tell me it tickles, the worse I wanna do it, right?
[He's just sayin'!]
SFW SFW SFW SFW SFW LMFAO bc this is pure af
don't lie to her, he's not sorry.
she's not expecting the tender, soft act of him nuzzling into her shoulder while she collects her breath and her heart stutters. ]
... I-I should've known. [ REALLY, SHE SHOULD HAVE. ] You can't help yourself. You have no restraint.
[ she's smiling as she glances at her shoulder, at yato nosing her clothes and humming with this dopey grin on his face. she gives into the whim to reach up and touch the back of his head. fingers petting there lightly to show she's not mad or upset or... anything.
anything but happy. ]
PURE AS THE FRESHLY FALLEN SNOW ❄️
And okay, maybe he's half sorry. Almost.]
I don't... When something tempts me, I like to pounce at the opportunity.
[Not unlike a cat, really. But at least he's being honest?
And how could he not be with her tender caresses reassuring him that his playing around isn't entirely unwelcome? Eventually he relaxes his grip on her, helping her turn around so they're face to face. His heart flutters in his chest a moment as he debates on something, then...]
May I kiss you, Hiyori...?
[Always one for checking in that regard at least, he waits patiently for an answer, eyes shining hopefully as he stares into hers.]
AS FLUFFY TOO!!!!!! ☃
yato's impulse control being zero isn't a new concept to her, but hearing him admit it is. courage to seize what he wants is commendable, don't get her wrong.
when it's not good luck charms and spending all yukine's hard-earned money.
occasions where yato was tempted by something, and he took it, are on her mind when she's turned around. so there's a little knit in her brow until she looks up and he asks her. like he always asks (usually asks) and she realizes this is something he doesn't pounce on as quickly.
right away, she blushes. like she always does. h-hasn't he kissed her enough (no)? did clone memories really not go back to him? suppose they don't. he's not wearing orange and he's not a ninja. ]
A... a-a lips... kiss?
THE FLUFFIEST!!! 🌨️
It's something he's slowly begun to realize here, after such things as eating (numerous) things he shouldn't, going overboard on the gifts, and watching himself go to town with Hiyori(s).
That doesn't mean he'll have much luck in changing said behavior, but! Realization is the first step to improvement.
That little knit in her brow doesn't go unnoticed by him, leading him to softly bite at his bottom lip nervously. In hindsight, she probably has been kissed more than enough for one day. But he never got his...!
All the same, his face colors as well as he nervously switches from foot to foot and glances at the floor between them. This is definitely one of the few areas where his confidence goes right out the window and right now is now exception. He takes one hand back from her in order to scratch at the back of his head with the slightest of sighs.]
I-It's fine if you don't want to...! You're probably sick of it by now anyway, huh...
[His expression falls to match his gaze and he starts pulling away completely.]
THEYRE INNOCENT SCREEEEEEEEEAMS
about as instant as her blush, she catches him and grips tight before he pulls away too far. before he can get lost in his head and his doubts.
(he got his kiss, just not in the way he REALLY wanted -- more than the lightest of lip brushes) ]
I'm not sick of it! [ LKJDLKGJSLKDG MAKING THAT CLEAR, FIRST ] I'm... still getting used to...
[ NEWER things. it's been a month. she's better but she's also been keeping things polite. taking things slow. with each word, hiyori's gaze lowers down farther and farther to the floor until she's staring at her feet. ]
H... how much my heart races... when you do. I was mentally preparing myself.
[ will it work? will her heart not race? probably not ]
NOPE, GUILTY, YOUR HONOR
Though it's something of one that there's no further misunderstandings as Hiyori latches onto him, slowing him to a halt before he can do more than get half turned away.
(Damn right he wanted it another way! He wanted a full-on smack on the lips like his sneaky doubles! Damn them! Grrr...)]
Y..You're not? [He seems a bit surprised to hear that, eyes widening at her words as the tension drains from his shoulders.] ...?
[Curiously, he tilts his head to one side, waiting her to finish her thought. Maybe it's just that he enjoys their kisses so much, or perhaps it's his years of living, but he's become almost accustomed to the feel of their mouths pressing together.
Nice and warm. Soft. Very enjoyable. A++ Would recommend.]
O-Oh. Okay. W..Well, whenever you're ready, if you want to...
[He gradually leans in, eyes closing to hopefully make it easier on her. He'd much rather watch the way her eyes flutter shut and the red encompass her entire face, but her comfort comes first.]
THEY ARENT GUILTY HERE DLKGSK
and she's not sick of them at all. look, he's not the only one that enjoys them. it takes all her willpower to pull away when she gets out of breath because mortals need this thing called air.
SHE DOES take 10 more minutes before she's ready -- that's a joke. yato leans in and her heart starts pounding in her chest. closing his eyes helps but barely so he might as well watch her blush and her eyelids flutter.
she can't take her eyes off his mouth, though. she wants to. she does.
at last, hiyori also leans in and her hold on him loosens around his clothes. resting her palm lightly on his chest, she pushes a bit on her toes to fit their mouths together. with a slight head tilt that she discovered fits them together better.
see? see? she wants to. she just needs a minute, that's all. ]
GUILTY OF CUTENESS OVERLOAD
ASDKFJH WAY TO MAKE HIM NERVOUS, HIYORI. Thank goodness she doesn't take that long-- he'd lose his nerve about two minutes in. Though in the time it does take her to lean in, he does steal a peek by cracking one eye open, gazing at her as she approaches.
It makes him tingle all over moments before actual contact is made-- likely due to her hand pressing gently to him. She'll be able to feel the way his heartbeat grows rapid, pounding in time with an invisible beat, the throb of which (to him) seems to spread to his lips with hers pressing against them.
He matches her headtilt in the opposite direction so they don't bump noses and can make their kiss deeper. It still borders on chaste, nothing naughty or untoward coming from Yato himself. Just pure, unadulterated affection conveyed through a kiss.
He hums softly into it, hands finding her shoulders to lightly squeeze them as warmth overtakes his face and entire body.
...very nice indeed.]
.... YEAH OK GUILTY AS CHARGED
it's chaste. it's still inexperienced, but not as much as it used to be. as far as kisses go, it's characteristic of first romances but carrying the years of that pure, unadulterated affection yato and hiyori held for each other and expressed, first, in small shrines and sacrifices they made for each other.
they can have their first clumsy makeout with mussed hair and kiss bitten lips in some other thread. this one remains chaste and the buzz of yato's hum on her lips prickles at her, too. she grins into it and then pulls away to rub her lips with a tiny, self-conscious laugh. ]
Y-your humming tickles, too.
SENTENCED TO SWEET KISSES
Alas, it doesn't last long enough for that, but it's still warm and welcome and wonderful. Enough to satisfy this affection-starved god for now. He doesn't try to force it to last longer than its natural end, relishing the parting as much as the meeting of their lips. Because he leaves with them feeling heated and tasting faintly of her, which has quickly become his favorite flavor in the world.
He is eager to know what it tastes like completely, but that'll have to wait. Now is a time for innocent kisses, not full-on makeout sessions.
Running his hands down her arms, he takes her hands in his and gives them a gentle squeeze. A silent 'thank you' that should need no words.]
Ah, sorry... I just can't help myself when it comes to you. You make me wanna climb on the roof and sing with joy.
[Hmm... Now that's an idea - he'll have to serenade her from the window one day. Perhaps with a bouquet of flowers to toss up to her as well. And in full costume...!
Yato plz]O-OH NOOOOOooo~~~
kisses don't require gratitude, unspoken or spoken, but she will return the squeeze -- their own little implicit exchange. apologizing is also totally unnecessary. she didn't say the humming was bad.
climbing on the roof and singing? she gets the sentiment behind it but yato, please. ]
D-don't do that. I mean, I'm also happy but... OH!! One of your copies made a delicious soup! Are you hungry?
[ too bad, she's already taking both his hands and guiding him to the kitchen where he can NOT EMBARRASS HER (for the most part) and eat some soup. ]
