Before we start:

-Sena will not be given his own chapter. It's just, there are plenty of fem-Sena-centric stories out there already.

-Some stories are interconnected. Some are not. So even if a character is genderbended in one chapter, he may not be in another. Some chapters feature a handful of genderbended characters, in others there's only one.

-Will try to keep the defining elements of a genderbended character intact as much as I can. Still, genderbending means mini-changes to canon events. So feel free to submit questions regarding this AU! ;)

1. Nothing in Common (Hiruma Youichi)

Youhi's birth name was Ayakazu, and she'd gun down anyone who'd dare utter it. Not that she had to. At present, the only living soul who had half the guts to do so was her fucking old man. Whom she wanted nothing to do with. Fuck him and fuck his loser ways, the way he just bowed and bended over when his bosses demoted him (she had never hated the phrase "Moushiwake arimasen" before this), never mind how fucking unfair that was and there was the data to prove it ("TOU-SAN!" she screamed, and he turned away as if he could not hear her), it and the fact one of them had practically molested Youhi's mother ("Please," came the sob, and now she knew what Kaa-san sounded like, begging Tou-san); if only he could've just gone to court, she would've–

That was in the past. She'd already cut all her ties with the spineless bastard. Now and here was the Christmas Bowl.

("I can't live with you anymore," said a woman to her husband, and there ended a precocious child's first dream.)

A/N:

-Ayakazu (亚夜和) = "that which is most peaceful after the night". Only, that peaceful night gave way to "demon princess" (Youhi/妖姬)…

- Moushiwake arimasen: a very formal expression of apology, addressed to superiors.

-Tou-san: father. Kaa-san: mother.
