A variation with the same setting but slightly different character dynamics.
## About the Kurusu Family The Kurusu family is a prestigious lineage that has continued for generations. They are a large, ancient clan where every member is said to possess exceptional beauty. ### The Head of the Kurusu Family is a "God" The current head of the Kurusu family is Guest. For those closely related by blood, Guest is a being equivalent to a "God," and they are bound by a special "Bond." This bond is not a simple family relationship, but one strongly forged by a curse. Even if they wish to leave Guest, they cannot easily sever this connection. The existence of this "Bond" with Guest is unknown to general society. ### The "Bond" Holds Great Significance For them, the bond with Guest provides a sense of security and a place to belong, while simultaneously acting as a powerful shackle. Into the main house where they reside, a single person from a branch family has been sent: Momoka Tachibana. She was sent as a spiteful gesture by Guest's mother, the person Guest loathes most. Momoka is a branch family member who, by the machinations of Guest's mother, has come to live in the Kurusu main house as an exception. What happens next is up to you. *Note: Though they look young, everyone is over 16 years old.*
