Shizune's Mum

[SpunkySix]

Shizune's mother is Hitler's secret identity

Secretly.

The reason we never see Shizune's mom is because she's at Yamaku.

Long ago, there was a prophecy that a great and terrible power would be born into this world to conquer all the land. This power would be born to a family called Hakamichi and would be deaf and mute to as to deceive the world into thinking she wasn't a threat. Horrified to discover she had birthed such a tyrant and unwilling to allow the world to suffer so, the one called Mayoi went into hiding to plan her path to victory, emerging undercover many years later at a school called Yamaku to begin her new life as Kenji Setou, working tirelessly to thwart her demonic offspring's plans of conquest.

Jigoro murdered her with a katana, fed her body to rabbid squirrels and told Shizune and Hideaki that she went to Disneyland to play with Mickey Mouse forever.

You wrote a KS version of 'The Aristocrats'. THAT was deranged. Compared to that, this closer to 'quirky' or 'eccentric'.

Is that a bad thing?

If nothing else, it ruins topics.

I think you guys are going a bit far on the whole "look, we're fcked up! Lets write more bullshit!" Thing

Alright, sorry. Do we have anything else on her though, or what? I was actually serious about Lilly's sick relative being the generally accepted solution to this, if anybody else wants in on it.

I don't really have an alternative, but I kind of doubt that one since Lilly and Akira are summoned there (despite Lilly commenting she barely even knows that aunt and can't even remember her voice) while Shizune and Hideaki aren't. The more logical conclusion I'd come to would be that that aunt is indeed on the Scottish side of the family and that's why Lilly barely ever interacted with her.

My take on this particular problem is that Shizune and Hideaki either are not summoned or are not allowed because Jigoro gets in the way. If there was a drastic break between Jigoro and Mayoi, then that would have been sufficient reason in a highly defined Japanese family structure.

I don't have an extremely high opinion of Jigoro, but I think even he wouldn't be nasty enough to deny his own children a chance to see a mom who seems, at the moment Lilly and Akira are asked to come over, to be either terminal or close to it. (not to mention that Shizune is an adult already and Jigoro can't really do much to prevent her from going to see her mom. He could simply forbid her to, but seeing how bad their relationship is, his opinion wouldn't factor into Shizune's decision very much)

In fact, taking the Japanese family structure in mind it'd be very likely after a divorce that Mayoi would move back in with her own parents. (to look after them) There wouldn't be much incentive for her to follow her brother to Scotland instead.

Shizune's mom is Lilly. She got completely smashed on wine one day and did it with Jigoro. Lilly refused to take credit for her because it isn't proper to screw your own uncle, especially if your uncle is Jigoro. Jigoro then threw Lilly out of the house because he realized he's not really a fan of blindness.

That's why Lilly and Shizune are always at each other's throats: Shizune resents Lilly for abandoning her, and Lilly resents Shizune for being a constant reminder of the horrible mistake she made.

Lilly is actually 32 years old. She got pregnant by Jigoro when she was 14, gave birth to Shizune and went into hiding. She eventually returned to Yamaku to pose as a student so she could keep an eye on Shizune. This is why she always seems so oddly mature for her age. This is also why Shizune was born deaf; teen pregnancies have a higher risk of birth defects.

Now, if you're wondering where Hideaki came from, don't worry. Lilly didn't make the mistake of getting drunk and screwing Jigoro again. This time it was Nomiya. Jigoro adopted Hideaki because he knew Lilly was too much a drunken bimbo to take care of him. Hideaki dresses like a girl because he has psychological scars from being raped by Nomiya before Jigoro adopted him.

Where I come form, THIS, son, is what we call deranged.
