Tanuki's Links
Beau? Who's that?
Beau does not like the fact that Tanuki is constantly destroying his garden and stealing his ladybugs. However, he harbors no true ill will towards him, and just hopes that one day Tanuki will be more mindful of others.
Ugh, that's the annoying bastard who's always in my way! I hope he gets struck by lightning.
Monty thinks Tanuki is a rich, entitled, selfish brat. If he could, he would really like to slap some sense into him, but alas, that would distress Beau greatly.
Yo! Sora is literally the best cousin on earth! Every time they visit I get a shitload of gifts, gifts that put even daddy to shame!
Tanuki is Sora's "adorable baby cousin", who they treat like a little princess. Sora spends LOADS showering Tanuki with gifts, and loves to take him out on trips! Tanuki's carefree attitude reminds Sora of what their life could have been, and seeing Tanuki living so freely helps them sleep a little better at night.
Styx is way cool! I love his fashion sense, and he always helps repair my favorite clothes when I tear them bug-catching! I would never ever step foot in that horrid house of his though, bleh!
Despite their differences, Styx and Tanuki are actually quite close. Tanuki is freaked out by Styx' morbid fascinations, and likewise, Styx is disgusted with Tanuki's bug obsession. Other than that though they get along fine.
Yu is Tanuki's closest and most cherished friend. He shares his most intimate feelings with Yu, feelings that he never shares with anyone else. Tanuki shops at Yu's store a LOT and basically his entire wardrobe has been designed by Yu. He refuses to wear clothing designed by anyone else.
Tanuki is Yu's childhood friend, and they hang out a lot. Yu takes good care of Tanuki and is one of the very few people who has witnessed Tanuki's most vulnerable moments. They are there as a shoulder to cry on and a loving friend to hold when Tanuki feels depressed and lonely.
Tanuki LOVES his papa! He gets expensive gifts all the time and anything he wants, when he wants! Maybe just a small part of him yearns to spend some actual time with his father though. Well, there's always next week...
Kai is pretty apathetic towards his son, especially as Tanuki grows older. He spends a lot showering Tanuki with gifts, not really out of love, but more so to get his son to stop bothering him. He's sort of given up parenting in general.
