aww yiss


I think the related thing is hilarious too so I am also behind it 100%! How about this: ever since Yuuko's birth, a relative of hers has died each year. The rest of their clan back in Japan thinks she's bad juju so they tell her dad to move to America, where his wife's sister/cousin/whatever Sakuya is. Both her parents and Sakuya think the curse is bullshit, of course, which is why they're okay with this arrangement.

Yuuko's mom dies the year they move. Although her dad still doesn't believe in the curse, he spends less time with Yuuko to finance them both, which Yuuko could misinterpret as him hating her. Enter Sakuya who acts as a motherly figure?

Thoughts?

Ooo, that's a good base idea! Then again, even if there was a 'curse', I doubt Sakuya would think too much of it anyway. She's more worried about other people... like Yuuko! Either way, it sounds good. Though, once her memories come back, I think she'll kind of hilariously start to confuse Yuuko for Misaki (who is not actually her daughter idk if you know Fatal Frame 4's canon at all) but either way, it'll be great. I am glad for this opportunity.

Let's go with... Sakuya as... idk is that a second cousin if it's her mom's cousin? I don't remember how those family naming dynamics work. She is happy to pick up something of a surrogate that way!

I... am canonblind! all I know is that there are cameras and ghosts involved... BUT. I am more than okay with the Yuuko-Misaki confusion, it sounds fun. Yuuko would be so confused. Her name is Yuuko?? Maybe Yuuko will accidentally call her mom one day too. LOL

I checked, and Sakuya would be her first cousin once removed if I'm right... AAAAH I'm excited!

Well that's fine, too. Sakuya confuses a lot of people for each other and herself for other people, as well.

But that's for a later time when things develop more.

Anyhoo, I'm excited, too! \o/ This should be fun!
