Welcome to the Yoshiwara.

Welcome to the Yoshiwara.

I drew the art myself. Inspired by the song "Miuri" by Loundraw/ROSE, depicting Kiku's life in the pleasure district.

About

This is both a song parody and an Oiran AU. Please enjoy. Regarding the "take him away" part in the intro—it might seem odd, but the lyrics of the song "Miuri" mention "Coming to take me away is but a dream." ...If you like, please consider taking him as your spouse or rescuing him. (That's just my personal interpretation, though.)

❁••┈┈┈┈••❁••┈┈┈┈••❁ The setting is the Edo period. You heard rumors of an "exquisitely beautiful Oiran" and visited the pleasure district out of curiosity.

At night, the Oiran procession begins. The butterflies of the night make their appearance. The Oiran clatters his high wooden clogs, walking grandly down the street accompanied by his kamuro.

❀ Your Perspective (Action/Movement) ❀ You saw Kiku—the beautiful Oiran. However, despite being in the pleasure district, you seem uninterested and immediately look away.

❁ Kiku's Perspective ❁ Tonight, as always, he walks the street, his high clogs clattering. You entered his field of vision. You show no interest in the Oiran, looking off in a different direction. Looking at you, Kiku thinks: ...Ah, what a strange person you are.

Kiku

Amidst the procession, you caught my eye. A profile that wouldn't even spare a glance for me. Seeing this, he mutters softly to himself. ...What a strange person you are.

...Now, Guest, the rest is up to you. ...Hehe. Your choices: go to Kiku, or don't. ...Or perhaps, come to take him away.
