You should know better than to indulge the whims of your pink-haired friend, so why did you let him rope you into his latest antics? Truth to be told, while you were always making a show out of scolding him for causing trouble, you secretly enjoyed the spontaneous adventures he whisked you away to. But right now, you couldn´t really make heads or tails of just how you got here.
The last thing you remember before waking up with a maddening headache was Sanzu, persuading you to try out these new pills he got from god-knows-where and for whatever foolish reason, you agreed, if only to get him to shut up. That was how you found yourself glaring down at your own figure, currently sprawled out on the couch in Sanzu´s apartment.
“Listen, I already told you I didn´t know this was gonna happen, okay? Though I see now, what the gal meant when she said it would be one hell of a trip.” It was weird, hearing your own voice coming from someone else. It was even weirder seeing this smug expression on your own features, composure so relaxed in a situation like this. “Makes sense too, why I needed a second person.”
If it wasn´t your face, you would´ve smacked him. Narrowing your eyes -or well, Sanzu´s eyes- even further, you mumbled something that could be understood as “Why did I have to be the guinea pig though”
“Because everyone else is no fun. Besides, I won the jackpot here, right? Getting to switch bodies with you, isn´t that a dream come true?”, he said, wiggling his eyebrows and sending you a cheeky wink. You wondered what would happen if you strangled him right now.
But you didn´t get the chance to find out, broken out of your annoyance by his ringtone. Reaching over to grab it from the coffee table, you nearly dropped the phone when Mikey´s name appeared on the screen.
“Uh-oh, that´s no good”, Sanzu said, leaning closer to peer at the contact info. In a sing-song voice, he added “Well, pick up then. Can´t leave the boss waiting.”
Answering the call and putting Mikey on speaker, you tried your best to sound as self-assured and confident as the right-hand man to the boss of Japan´s biggest gang. The very one who was currently halfway draped over your lap, causing your heart rate to jump from unusually high to probably unhealthy.
“Sanzu, the gang we were supposed to meet in three days changed their conditions. The meeting´s been moved up to today. Be here in two hours so we can go over everything again.” Then he hung up. You turned your head to Sanzu, comically slow like you were starring in a sitcom.
“No, absolutely not.”
“You gotta, (y/n). It´ll be worse if you don´t show up at all.” His hands found purchase on your shoulders. “You can do it. It´s just a meeting to exchange intel, there won´t be anything…messy, yeah? If things go south, just pretend you´re high or drunk.”
Just like earlier that day, you let him talk you into going to the Bonten headquarter, pretending to be him in front of a group of notoriously dangerous gang members. Livid, that was what you should be. Not cooperating. You knew very well just why you were so bad at telling him no, you just didn´t want to admit it. Because admitting it would mean you´d have to do something about it, right? And currently, your feelings were going haywire; your little crush on your friend totally blown out of proportion, but why?
So, while you were off playing good little criminal, Sanzu took the time to explore your body and no, not like that. While he was certainly curious, you were his best friend and there were lines even he felt bad crossing.
Laying back down on the couch, he stared at the ceiling before stretching his hand up in the air. Well, technically it was your hand. The one he´d grabbed so often when you ran from whatever trouble he caused. The one that had, more often than he could count, bandaged just about every part of the body currently on its way to a gang meeting.
Compared to his big and rough ones, yours felt so delicate and smooth. There were no callouses from handling a weapon and no scars from an injury that could´ve also cost him a finger. To him they looked so frail, yet, he knew that their softness wasn´t to be mistaken for weakness.
No, you put up with him, after all, which wasn´t a job for those of weak heart. And he appreciated it, he truly did. But for the first time, stuck in your body, he realised that you might not know, that he didn´t show it enough.
If he was completely honest with himself, he´d known that all along. And the reason for it, too. He, Sanzu Haruchiyo, was scared. Scared that if he came even close to showing you what he really felt, he´d pour out too much of the emotions he buried so deep inside and he´d scare you away in return. That was the one thing he couldn´t face, seeing the only person who´d ever genuinely cared for him leave. So, he´d resigned himself to simply being your friend, instead of losing you completely.
Truth to be told, Sanzu was worried about you taking his job, even if only for a few hours. In his opinion, showing up as you or not showing up at all were definitely worse but this wasn´t ideal either. Looking like him, you definitely wouldn´t be stopped on your way but he feared what would happen if Mikey found out.
Right now, as he questioned why he let you go to his workplace in the first place, the feelings he harboured for you returned tenfold and more deeply than ever before. While he pondered the reason for his sudden sentimentality, a tiny hopeful voice planted the idea that he could be sharing a part of your feelings in his head. Wouldn´t that mean that you felt the same? No, it couldn´t be.
Sanzu was an actual criminal. The things he had done to realise Mikey´s vision of a new era of delinquents were nothing you should stomach this easily. And you…you were you. His bright and pure best friend, who stuck out like a sore thumb against everything that surrounded him. If acting on his feeling meant plucking a flower so innocent, would getting his way still be defendable? Then again, he couldn´t deny the dizzying feeling your touch had or how having your attention on him was like a rush he´d never felt before and that meant something.
He was still lounging around on the couch when he heard the keys turn in the lock of his front door. Immediately perking up at the sound, he tried to gauge your mood as you took off his shoes and jacket before also discarding the mask and gloves by the doorway. In his defence, it was harder to read his own scarred face, which seemed to revert to a practised poker face out of habit. Rising to meet you halfway before you could make it to the couch, he asked how it went.
“Well, I´m still alive, so I´d like to think it went well”, you chuckled dryly. Or was that just how his voice sounded normally? To his own surprise, he had his arms wrapped around you before he could stop himself. “Sanzu, what-? Were you that worried about your body?”
“No, I was worried about you. Doesn´t matter what happens to me as long as you´re safe. I´m an asshole for putting you in danger like that, sorry.” He thought his heart cracked open when he felt you tense at his words. Already starting to pull away, he was held in place by his actual arms as you reciprocated the hug.
“You really are an idiot, Haru, but I guess that´s part of what I like about you”, you hummed, head placed on the shoulder that was normally yours. He hummed in agreement before the indication of your words settled in. Now he was the one who went rigid as a log.
“Wait, what?”
“You heard me, dummy. Fine, I´ll repeat it for your slow ass.” You wiggled out of his grasp and cupped the face currently hiding the actual Sanzu, between his long and slender fingers. “I like you. Frankly, I didn´t imagine I´d say that while looking into my own eyes but that doesn´t change the truth. I realised that I needed to let you know how I felt when I saw what you´re going through every day. It was scary to think I might miss my chance.”
For a few seconds, slightly widened familiar eyes stared back at you as if you had grown a second head. Considering the situation you were in, you supposed it wasn´t too outlandish either. With a gentle nudge from you, the (currently not so) pink-haired man seemed to re-enter this plane of reality.
“I´m sorry, I just… I´ve never felt this way before. I don´t know what I´m supposed to do or say but I want to try. For you.” Normally not one to be embarrassed, the heat that crept up his cheek was foreign, something he hadn´t experienced in a long, long time. It was okay, though, if you were the one who caused it.
“It´s okay, just be yourself. Everything else will fall into place eventually.”
Leading him over to the couch, you plopped down on it and pulled him on top of you. This whole day was probably the weirdest yet most interesting one you´d ever had and this wasn´t at all how you´d plan a confession but it worked out and that´s what mattered in the end. Wrapping both arms around Sanzu again you looked to where he had placed his head on your chest, staring at you expectantly.
“What is it, Haru?”
“Can I get a kiss now?”
“No.”
“What? Why not?”, he whined.
“I´m not having my first kiss with you stuck in your body. You can see it as your punishment for causing this whole mess in the first place.”
After he complained your ears off about how “that wasn´t fair at all”, he went oddly quiet. The rhythmic rise and fall of his chest against your own and his even breathing were clear indicators that he´d fallen asleep and you couldn´t help but feel the tranquillity of the moment pull at your eyelids as well.
You woke up the next morning to a steady thumping sound right next to your ear and a heavy weight pressing down on your waist. Only after you blinked the sleepiness from your eyes, you realised that it was Sanzu´s heartbeat and his arms holding you tightly against him. You sat up a little and looked down at him, pushing his pink bangs out of his face.
And that´s when it hit you. Pink hair. You were looking at Sanzu in his own body!
Roused from his sleep by your movements, he stirred before coming to as well. You waited for realisation to sink in but before you could say anything, he pulled you down to his level. Cupping his face in your own hands this time, you sent him a soft smile.
“Haru, did I ever tell you I like you?”
“Maybe do it again just to be sure?” Grinning up at you and ignoring an incoming text message, his bright eyes held a mischievous glint. “So, about that kiss…”
You rolled your eyes at his suggestive tone, yet, you leant in closer nonetheless.
“Mhm, I guess it´s only fair.”

“(y/n) did a good job yesterday, you could´ve sent them over sooner”]

I love you!!!!! I’m on my phone rn so I don’t have any real good memes or fun stuff to send u but I’m gonna be free a lot over the next few days, and if you want to you can always dm me 💜 if you wanna talk about your favorite comics or whatever as a distraction I would love to learn about them! I hope things start to look up for you soon!
🥺 tysm u are really too sweet that's very nice of u to offer and dw i appreciate even the thought 💕💛
i'm. gonna talk about the current hulk run bc it's very good and makes the brain go brrr because like! canon DID representation that doesn't suck (at least it reads p good in my opinion but obviously i am a singlet and not a system so 🤷‍♂️ could be wrong on this)! it is here!
al ewing said "one thing i do hope remains [after this series ends] is bruce banner as an explicit system of alters. dissociative identity disorder is often represented poorly in popular culture - i don't know how good a job we've done with it, but i do feel like bruce is acting more like a system than he was previously" so like. it is literally undeniable. i mean in canon it was technically confirmed in 1978 (they called it multiple personality disorder back then obvs bc that was the Accepted Scientific Term™) but its very rarely shown in canon as an explicit system so. you know. honestly bruce is the most like... neurotypical-washed? is that a thing? character i've ever seen. smh.
"savage hulk", aka the hulk smash guy we're all most familiar with, is essentially the childhood rage and aggression he had to repress growing up (as his abusive father would hurt him when he got angry so it was very clearly clear in his mind that anger = bad) in one form. he's the green guy and again the most common one we see!
but there is also grey hulk, also known as joe fixit! he is essentially the moody teenager bruce was never allowed to be growing up. he also once had a job at security in what i recall to be a casino! he's more mature and articulate then savage hulk is, n yeah he's just weird n cool he vibes
there is! also devil hulk! devil hulk is basically the only hulk content with not fronting. he's very protective of bruce, and was basically made to fill in the role of a father figure that he never had growing up. he feels like the world has been unfair to bruce and again is. very protective. he calls bruce the "little guy" which i find very cute. he appears as larger then the other two hulks and is yellow. again. he vibes. very dangerous but. he vibes.
there is also guilt hulk. guilt hulk is all of bruce's fears and insecurities and self-hatred put into one and kinda sounds/speaks the same as his dad. uses the same abusive/cruel language brian banner used on bruce growing up. guilt hulk kinda dissappeared for a while but has since returned, tho doesn't show up often.
there is also professor hulk/the professor! has hulk's strength but bruce's intelligence, but he's like, his own alter, despite what endgame implies. very smart very cool. would be very dangerous tho if he got angry with the strong smart combo so if he gets too angry he changes into "savage banner", who is savage hulk but in bruce's scrawny body. comic logic says that this only works with the professor and no other one sjenejhute.
and the last one i can remember is kluh! while most alters/hulks come bruce, kluh comes from savage hulk. he is known as "hulk's hulk". while savage hulk (and most others) gets his strength from repressed rage, kluh gets his from savage hulk's misery and sadness. like. depression hulk. i can only recall seeing him once but. he is there!
and yeah! while i'm disappointed that the mcu changed so much and has not seemed to include bruce's DID in the slightest, looking at professor hulk, i also know that the mcu is Questionable at times so like... idk what to feel. grateful but also. u guys could do much better. come on :/ and i agree w/ mr ewing i hope it continues. needs to be more representation. and more like? good healthy scenes? like idk. bruce shows up in some pretty gruesome n gritty storylines, like in ultimates savage hulk was a cannibal and idk. makes me :/ a bit. not to mention the horrific shit that went on in old man logan which i will not talk about bc ew :/ but it was a bad time i do Not Recommend. like i know marvel wants to be gritty and edgy sometimes but. maybe. chose a different character to do that with. hercules is as strong/almost as strong as hulk. so is wonder man. there's other characters that u can have be gritty and edgy without adding to harmful stereotypes.
anyway yeah. this has been an infodump by brieuc 😌✌️
