What's the Deal with Yuuki Rito?
The first waifu in this series who is actually a husbando.
Lala Satalin Deviluke's fiance and Pactio partner. He's been in love with Saotome Haruna for years, and much to his shock, she agreed to be his girlfriend after finding the love letter he'd written to her and would most likely never deliver personally or otherwise. Afterwards, he unwillingly became Lala's husband-to-be when he grabbed her tail. He's been looking after his little sister Mikan since their parents pretty much abandoned them in Mahora Academy, although eventually the wiser and calmer Mikan pretty much ended up the surrogate mother to him and their troubled cousin Nao.
Rito's a bundle of hyperactive nerves and tends to overreact about everything. He's bad to mediocre at most things he tries, but he has a skilled hand for carny tricks, an undeniable competence in football, and an impressive mastery in gardening, which he also loves. Fittingly, his Pactio with Lala presented him with a magical watering can that can make any plant grow supernaturally, and he even can use them to attack others or defending himself. His clumsy habits to often trip and fall on girls and accidentally glomp them have made most students derogatorily call him 'the Perverted Beast', although he only has eyes for Haruna. He's mildly jealous of Haruna's affection towards Negi, and insecure of Haruna's intimately physical relationship with Lala.
One of Lala's inventions turned Rito into a shapely, gorgeous girl version of him nicknamed 'Riko'. This is why he is here at all.
Mommy Dearest.
"I'll be getting it!" Lala said brightly, moving towards the front door.
Then she said the last thing Rito had expected to hear. "Oh! Good morning, Ringo!"
The boy looked up from the schoolwork he'd been getting through. After what had been months adventuring in Mundus Magicus and beyond for him, he'd fallen behind on actual academics, which now felt almost alien to him. "What?!"
Mikan came out of the kitchen in a flash, followed by a curious Momo still wearing her apron. Thankully, it was not a naked apron this time. "Mom?" Rito's sister said. "Mommy!"
"Mikan-chan!" Yuuki Ringo smiled, opening her arms as her daughter ran into them, laughing and hugging her. "I've missed you so much, Dearie...!"
Nao was coming down the stairs, with Nana in tow, since they'd been playing videogames over the last hour. "Ringo," Nao said, evenly. "Why are you here?"
Ringo kept on hugging Mikan while smiling at Nao. "I've asked for a sabbatical. It's been a while, Nao-chan. How's your mom?"
"Same as ever. Thanks for asking," Nao said coldly.
Momo bowed very deeply at the newcomer. "Mother-in-law! Welcome back..."
Ringo laughed again, reaching over to play with Momo's hair. "Ah, Momo-chan! New hairstyle, right? It really suits you!"
Momo smiled. "That's what I was counting on, Mother-in-law..."
"Hey, welcome!" Nana waved up, grinning. "You heard of all that happened, right, Ma'am? I mean, you'd have to notice, on your way here..."
Ringo sighed. "Yes, of course. That's why I came here, in the first place." She looked at her son. "Rito-kun? Aren't you going to hug your mommy too?"
"Yeah. Yeah, sorry, of course," he said, joining Mikan in their embrace, and trying his best not to touch Mikan's ass while doing so.
Instead, much to his regret, he ended up fondling Ringo's ass with a hand instead.
The woman didn't protest, though, and Nana either didn't notice or chose to stay silent on the subject this once.
Haruna had come over for dinner, bringing Yue and Nodoka along. Much to Rito's surprise, Yui had shown up as well, saying that Haruna had called her, and awkwardly bringing some casserole she'd cooked for Ringo.
They had a mini party of sorts, complete with Nana punching Rito after a standard mishap, and it was pretty late by the time Yui, Haruna, Yue and Nodoka left. Rito had offered to escort them back home, but Lala intervened and did that herself, saying that he'd better spend some time with his mother tonight. It was not like Haruna, Nodoka and Yue needed any protection anymore nowadays, either way.
Rito moved into the balcony, watching the five girls walk away, down the well lit street. This area had suffered less damage than most of the district during Ialda Baoth's attack, but several sidewalks were still fractured, since the repair crews focused on the main campus for now. Several neighbors were talking about leaving, and the fact that many of the neighbors were teachers added an extra layer of concern for those who planned staying, like Rito.
"Yui-chan hasn't changed a bit," Ringo mused, now standing behind him, "but Paru and her friends are much more athletic now, better toned. Even Nodo-chan."
Rito shrugged apathetically, without glancing back at her. "Well, you heard their stories."
"You too, are so much more muscular," Ringo said, reaching over and gently squeezing one of his arms. "That shirt used to be so loose on you."
"It did? I don't remember," he said frankly.
The woman did not talk for several moments afterwards.
"The sabbatical I asked for... It's a sabbatical year," she spoke then. "As a matter of fact, I'm thinking of just working from home from now on. This is the era of online jobs, right? What with the virus and all..."
"Hmmmm," Rito said noncommittally. In truth he still was having some issues clicking with the idea of a global pandemic breaking out while they were gone. Had it been actually THAT long? On either side?
"I'm sorry," Ringo said.
"Over what?"
"You know over what, Rito-kun."
"That," he said, "is something you'd better apologize to Mikan for."
"Oh, don't start playing the macho insensitive with me now," she complained. "I've hurt you, and I regret you. I never was there for you, and I can realize that. I know you aren't a child anymore, but I'd still like to think that there's time to make things right between us. I-"
"Did your secretary write that speech for you?" Rito mumbled.
Ringo fell into a long, painful silence again.
He closed his eyes and berated himself, but the words of apology wouldn't come out, no matter how badly he wanted to say them. He waited for the sound of his retreating steps, just so he could start crying like a girl, like Riko, again, but that didn't happen.
Instead, she said, "I just don't want us to end up like Negi-sensei and his parents."
"I'm fairly confident that neither you nor Dad will ever be possessed by ancient evil entities, Mom," Rito said.
"Rito," she said, "what do I have to do, for me to redeem myself in your eyes? I know that any way you put it, I haven't even started that road yet. But I want to know what do you expect from me from now on, what's what you need from me the most? I love you and Mikan-chan with all of my heart, and I know that I didn't exactly come across, with the way I always left you behind, but...! But...!"
Finally, he turned around to face her, but looking down stubbornly.
"I don't know," he said.
"Eh?"
"I don't know what I'd want you to do, Mom," he explained. "I don't even know what I feel towards you right now. Part of me feels that I forgave you long ago. Another part feels that I never held anything against you and Dad to begin with. A third part that sounds a lot like Tsukuyomi-san says that I'll never forgive you no matter what you ever do..."
"Who is Tsukuyomi?" Ringo asked.
Rito sighed very sadly and hugged her regardless.
"Please help me to find out what I feel," he begged her.
She bit on her lower lip, fighting the tears back, and hugged him back. "I'll do... just that," she promised. "Thank you for that chance, Rito-kun."
Absently, his right hand slipped down to her ass again.
Once again, she said nothing about that.
Under the Surface.
When Rito woke up, she was fully naked in bed, and Haruna, just as naked, was caressing one of her cheeks tenderly.
"You were wonderful last night…" Haruna purred. Then she kissed her lips. "I love you so much…"
"Me too, Haruna-chan," Rito said, smiling. "I feel like I could stay in this bed with you forever…"
The third figure in the bed stirred then, moving close to Rito and massaging her hips sensuously. "Rito," Negi breathed out needily. "I want you again…"
"… senpai?" Sakurako said, waving a hand before his face. "Hellooooo, Senpai, are you alright?"
Rito forced himself to blink his way back to awareness. He smiled awkwardly. "Y-Yeah, sorry, Sakurako-san. I, I just failed to hear what you were asking! Maybe you could repeat it…?"
"I asked what did you see while in the Cosmo Entelecheia," Shiina repeated the question.
Rito got up from his chair and ran away, screaming his head off.
Sakurako, genuinely baffled, looked at Madoka. "Why would anyone react like that to being reminded of their deepest dream?!"
Love is not Blind, but it Should Be.
"Hey, Rito, Haruna-san!" Aijo Rentarou smiled, as he was led by the nurse into the room. "Good to see everything worked out!"
"Oh, Ren-kun, come here and look at her!" Haruna said, holding her baby in her arms while Rito smirked proudly. "Isn't she the cutest thing ever?"
Rentarou leaned towards the bed. "Yes, yes, she's very pretty ind-"
Then he and the baby locked gazes.
A large jolt of electricity rattled the air of the hospital room.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Rito screamed, bolting up into a sitting position on the bed.
"What?! What?! What?!" Momo gasped from the floor, where she had just landed on her face. "What's wrong?!"
"I... I had a horrible nightmare!" Rito shuddered. "It started great, Haruna-chan and were in... um, a very nice date..." He blushed, starting to remember, "but then... uh... why is my zipper open?"
"I have no idea what are you talking about," Momo said, wiping her mouth with the back of a hand right before Mikan and Nana opened the door, startled by the scream.
Misunderstood.
"You know, I've lost a lot of respect for you guys!" Karane snapped, flippantly waving a hand at them. "You are always raging at Yuuki and yelling about him! But for an idiot he's not such a bad guy! Not that I'd like to have him as a friend or anything but he spent the other day with us and never once he touched us or anything!"
Rito's female friends stared at her, open mouthed.
Karane frowned. "What?! You calling me a liar?! Bring it on!"
By then only Rentarou and Rito stayed at the rooftop, sitting face to face and sharing tea.
"It's weird that here I feel more endangered, and yet more safe than anywhere else," Rito said uneasily.
Rentarou smiled saintly. "As long as you don't stumble on or grope any of them you'll be safe and nobody will throw you over the edge!"
Rito trembled again.
Yami looked at her hands. "He fears him more than he fears me... What should that tell me then? What?!"
Mikado hummed and, quite frankly bored at her drama, shrugged her shoulders. "Maybe you should try looking into establishing meaningful relationships not based on violence, other than that you have with Mikan?"
"... I don't understand your question?"
Yuuki Yuuna is a Hero.
"Well, I had to be to marry Rito," the former Miss Akashi said.
The Wedding Proposal.
"Rito-san, I want you to keep this, please," Negi said, handing Rito a tiny box.
Rito blinked, opened it, and gasped at the ring inside.
Negi cleared his throat and fixed his tie. "I'm doing this because you are trustworthy, and loyal, and a good friend, and you'd never-"
Negi trailed off, looking at Rito again, and then concluded blandly: "- let Chisame or any of the other girls find it or look at it before I arrange my proper proposal to her, of course."
Riko, with the Pai Pai Rocket-kun by her side and a wedding gown suddenly on her, gulped. "How bad, I mean, what a relief!"
En conclusion, un hombre entiende a otro hombre, y recuerda, si esta transformado, no es gay.
