Team Satisfaction if they reunited in their 30s and became a yakuza organisation.

(just enjoyed designed monster tattoos)

my lineart really sucked on this one especially for the irezumi (tats) but I don't have the time to digitise things as much and I wanted this AU (can you call this an AU? yakuza au?)

hc:

Their turf is Satellite, but the different sectors are broken down and ran by various associates which the team control.

Kiryu is the leader (oyabun), as he was in Team Satisfaction. He's a bit loose and has psychotic moments, which makes him a force to be feared when paired with his trusty Infernit-3 pistol. HIs tattoos are infernity monsters, all symbolising death and despair, which is what his enemies see before their own downfall. He is well-known, and walks the streets playing his harmonica before striking on victims, so if you ever hear that dreary tune, don't even bother running.

Yusei is Kiryu's second-hand, (wakagashira), and takes care of the gang by sorting the organisation, making repairs on their bikes, and always checking on the team to make sure there's no trouble. He deals with relations, setting up business associates and calming down the law if there's trouble (and all the deals are done through duelling, of course). He's also the calm, collected support that mostly keeps Kiryu's crazy ideas in check. HIs irezumi of Stardust symbolises his hope and redemption, but his chest tattoos of junk monsters reflect his skills making much out of just the scraps the team started off with.

Crow is the shatei ("little brother"), lowest of all the members and directly under Jack as his kyodai. He is tricky, always getting into mishaps with low level gangs and enemies, and always having to be helped (and scolded) by his higher ups, especially Jack. He revels in the chaos, but has a softer side that always makes him question the morals and wrongs of his team's actions. He also engages in separate crimes to help look after orphan children, involving theft. This, too, results in conflict between him and his kyodai. His blackwing tattoos symbolise sacrifice, reflecting the sacrifices he made to join the gang including his own morality and righteousness, but these sacrifices were necessary to help keep his kids safe.

Jack is the kyodai ("big brother"), with gravitas enough to control smaller sectors of Satellite and threaten any associates who make trouble. He is the strongest physically, and does everything with his bare hands. He is always getting into fights to prove his worth, and is always being told off by Yusei for his mishaps. His Red Demon's Dragon tattoo symbolises power, but also protection, as he is the protector of his team with his unrelenting power-force. He often gets into fights with Kiryu for power and authority, which isn't the wisest decision when Kiryu wields a gun, and always gets into fights with his younger, Crow, who can't seem to respect his position.
