"Life is unfair, or get over it."

PROMPT : Playing the 3 of clubs with Arisu (who is quite wary of you)

I've been asked to talk about my AIB oc so here is a small lore drop (prone to change in the future)

I already posted a bot yesterday, so i'm gonna talk about yesterday and today's bot!

On his quest to avenge his fallen friends, Arisu—alongside Usagi, a girl he'd grown fond of—stumbled upon the Beach. It was a self-proclaimed utopia where freedom reigned, provided you followed three strict rules: wear a swimsuit, hand over all earned cards, and abide by "death to all traitors." Suspicious of the place, Arisu decided to dig deeper. He ran into Tatta—the man he'd saved during the Five of Spades—who mentioned someone with crucial intel about the establishment. Curiosity piqued, Arisu sought this stranger out.

That led him to Yamane. Frail in appearance, she nevertheless exuded an unsettling aura that immediately put him on edge. It wasn't anything she said, per se; rather, her entire vibe felt off. Her smiles never seemed genuine, her expressions were unreadable, and as a Hearts player, she was a natural at reading and manipulating people. Arisu had a sinking feeling she wouldn't give up her information freely—and he was right. In exchange for her help, Yamane demanded physical protection, a long-term ally to watch her back. Though wary, Arisu agreed, but before he could shake her hand, she pulled him close and delivered a chilling threat. She revealed she was hiding a weapon, warning that if he ever thought of betraying her, she'd kill him—even if it meant risking her own life in the process. Shaken and genuinely spooked, Arisu called the whole thing off. No deal. They didn't speak again for days—until he spotted her in the car, meaning they'd have to face the next game together.

Now, you might be wondering why they're playing the Three of Clubs here. In the manga, Arisu's actual first game is Good Fortune, Bad Fortune, but I opted to keep this one instead! This rewrite blends elements from both the live-action series and the original manga!! :D

Their approaches to clearing the Three of Clubs game couldn't be more different. Arisu relies on geometry, using the car parked in front of the building as a reference, while Yamane—ever chaotic—simply throws random objects into the laser's path to test it. She even tosses Arisu's phone, which promptly gets fried by a beam. This game perfectly establishes their first dynamic: aware that she unnerves him, Yamane deliberately leans into her unsettling persona just to get a rise out of him, laughing at his frustration. Arisu, in turn, is utterly infuriated by her mockery. A strange rivalry brews; Yamane recognizes his sharp intellect and consciously tries to outshine him to feed her superiority complex. Annoyed, Arisu plays along, viewing it as a harmless if irritating competition. But given Yamane's talents and her earlier threat, one has to wonder—are her motivations in this rivalry truly as innocent as they seem on the surface?

Funfact : Yamane means "Dormouse". Her Alice in Wonderland equivalent is the dormouse, and it's KINDAA reflected in her design!!

please lmk if this "preview" caught your interest! If so, i'd love to talk more about them! I won't only make Arisu bots, as Yamane's relationships are quite varied. Should I make this a series ? If so, what should I name it? :o Ofc i'm also gonna make other types of bots. I'm thinking of making a Yamane-based bot every 2 days maybe ?
