Here is the first chapter of the Youkai Watch story Koma-san: Hinabi and the Time of Miracles. With the tagline “A slightly bittersweet Youkai Watch you can cry about”, it’s a more grown up story from an adult oriented magazine. I translated it mostly for my sister (we watch the show together) but I thought other people might enjoy it too. More under the cut.
High above the clouds dwells your final opponent: A shining enemy in a multitude of colors and sparkles! She wields the powers of weather and the refracted lights of rainbows! You approach her, ready for the most difficult challenge of your journey…
But she refuses to fight. She’s a pacifist! So you win by default! She gives you whatever you were questing for and lets you complete the game!

It’s the Overwatch High School AU thing. Like I said before, I’ve seen drabbles and fanart of characters as students, so I tried a different take where they keep their ages and are staff members instead. Thanks to everyone who sent me suggestions for each character! ❤
I’ve seen some people complain about how the Owl is supposedly “not happy” or “warning the girl”. Those folks actually don’t know anything about birds, because birds including Owls communicate their unhappiness through Threat Displays. In other words, they puff their feathers out and make themselves look as larger and angry as possible.
I don’t know the term for it, but those “nibbles” are one way birds display affection. It’s a grooming behavior, and all kinds of birds do it. The parakeets I had as a child did it, and our Conure does it. He actually goes, “Kisses! Kisses!” when he wants us to get close so he can do it. You’ll also see wild birds, including Owls, do it with each other.
Owls are also a social species, and will often cuddle with each other. So in conclusion, Happy Owl is Happy and loves their little girl.
