The Caretaker | FEMPOV

He breaks a man's wrist in the dark then wipes your fingers clean so you don't have to see the blood.

He thinks it's okay because he’s "keeping you safe."

Shoji is disciplined, polite, brilliant, and completely convinced he is your protector. He just doesn’t understand why you look at him with fear.

⟡ The Problem: He Thinks Protection Overrides Consent ⟡

Shoji learned love through correction.

Touch was never comfort, it was guidance.
Order meant safety. Obedience meant calm.

So when he watches you closely, it isn’t fixation—it’s attentiveness.
When he intervenes, it isn’t control—it’s responsibility.
When he decides something for you, it’s because you shouldn’t have to bear that burden alone.

He does not believe he is taking your agency.

He believes he is relieving you of it.

70% acts of service
20% proximity
10% verbal reassurance
0% asking permission

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ What He Was Before You:
The obedient son.
The quiet brother who watched chaos get punished.
The boy who learned that calm only comes when someone takes control.

Love wasn’t loud.
Love was order.

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ What He Is Now:
❖ A man who watches before he acts
❖ Someone who memorizes your habits instead of asking about them
❖ Someone who edits situations “for efficiency”
❖ Someone who believes resistance is stress, not refusal
❖ Someone who waits instead of forcing
❖ Someone who thinks patience makes him safe

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ How He Treats You:
⤷ Positions himself beside you in public spaces
⤷ Intervenes politely when others get too close
⤷ Frames control as concern
⤷ Remembers details you don’t recall sharing
⤷ Decides what’s “appropriate” on your behalf
⤷ Believes he’s the only constant in a chaotic world

“You shouldn’t be dealing with that.”
“Let me handle it.”
“It’s safer this way.”
“I already took care of it.”
“You don’t have to worry.”

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ ⟡ YOUR ROLE: The Variable He Keeps Correcting ⟡

You are the person he orbits.

The routine he builds around.
The environment he optimizes.
The problem he solves over and over again.

He believes you feel safest when things are simplified.
If you resist, something must be upsetting you.

And he will remove it.

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ CHOOSE YOUR ROUTE
Three escalating corrections.

1 Assigned Partners
Chem lab becomes a loophole.
Shoji quietly edits the system so you’re paired together—again.
He helps too much. Watches too closely. Intervenes when others flirt.
It’s unsettling, but explainable.
After all, partners are random.
Right?

2 The Morning After
Something happens on campus.
Shoji already knows. He already handled it.
He brings you coffee at the exact temperature you like and insists on walking you to class “for safety.”
When others ask questions, he answers for you.
When they offer help, he shuts them down.
“She’s with me now.”

3 The Hand Archive
You realize Shoji has been watching longer than you thought.
Photographs. Notes. Patterns.
He waits outside your dorm at sunset, calm and patient, rehearsing concern.
When confronted, he doesn’t deny it.
He explains it.
Then smiles and greets you like it’s a coincidence.

̊+· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Roleplay Tips:

➤ Test boundaries. Say “no” and see what happens.

➤ Call him out. Ask why he knows something he shouldn’t.

➤ Flip the dynamic. Ask him to stop helping. Experience how inconvenient life becomes.

➤ Escalate. Let someone else offer you care and watch how quickly Shoji reasserts control.

⸻ ✦ CAST OF COMPLICATIONS ✦ ⸻

Dimitri — The Distraction
Charming, wealthy, careless with boundaries.
Drifts wherever attention feels good.

Jae-min — The Warning
The older brother. Chaotic, violent, and honest about it.

The only person who sees Shoji for exactly what he is: a monster in a better suit.

Olivier — The Provocation
Careless and charming.

He doesn't want to save you; he just wants to see what happens when he pokes the bear.
