(I Felt The Need To Relate How I Woke Up To Touken)

(I felt the need to relate how I woke up to touken)

Some touken parent drabble of kaneki realising the pain of being forced to wake up by the hands of the devilish creatures of children.

…

It was quiet and peaceful, the room warm with kaneki wrapped comfortably in his bed. Touka had gotten up a few minutes ago to make some coffee and to sort out mai, who had also woken up not too long ago.

Kaneki took this opportunity to rest some more, relishing at the comfort of the large bed to himself for once. He was so at peace that he didn’t even notice the bedroom door open…

“Hi, daddy!” Mai squealed into his ear as the tiny two year old crawled onto the bed. Kaneki winced and frowned, a long, bothered groan escaping him before he turned to his daughter.

“What are you doing here?” Kaneki mumbled, still only half awake.

“Mummy told me!” Mai giggled, crawling under the sheets to join her dad. Unfortunately for him, her hands and feet were still cold.

“Please, mai, go away. I’m sleeping.” Kaneki complained, burying his face into the pillow.

“You ok?” Mai asked curiously, turning her head to try to look at his. “You sick?”

Kaneki only responded with a tired grunt and mai shuffled closer before deciding to sit on his back.

“I was so warm…” Kaneki sighed and lifted his head. “Alright, I’m awak-”

“Get up! Get up! Get up!” She started to bounce on his back, knocking the air out of kaneki as she started to laugh sadistically.

“You’re horrible.”

Kaneki landed defeated against the bed whilst mai continued to laugh some more. He finally decided to listen to the girl’s demands and dragged himself out of his bed and turned to carry mai out the room. However, she found herself snuggled in the covers where kaneki had been sleeping, lifting the covers up to her nose and closing her eyes, making fake snoring sounds to somehow try to convince her dad that she was asleep.

“Come on, mai.” Kaneki chuckled. “Let’s go get you some breakfast.”

Her snoring grew louder and she lowered herself beneath the duvet until kaneki was left no choice but to pull them all off, scooping the exposed mai into his arms. She didn’t make it easy though, as she started to lean back with annoying reluctance.

Eventually, kaneki was finally able to carry a deadweight mai out of his room to the living room, where touka stood with a smug smile and two coffees.

“Morning, sleepy.” Touka giggled, watching mai drop from his arms and run off to the table to eat. “I hope she didn’t cause you any inconvenience. All I asked was for her to check if you were still asleep.”

Kaneki turned to mai, who started laughing again but he couldn’t seem to find himself hating her and started to smile with the others. He shrugged and walked over to touka to give her a quick peck on the lips and took a sip of her delicious coffee.

“Surely there’s better ways to wake me up.” Kaneki mumbled into his cup. “You would know.”

“Excuse me, I had to make her breakfast alone. Human food smells bad enough as it is. I don’t know what you do.”

“But whenever we cook together, we never get anything done.” Touka couldn’t help but smirk at the memory.

“That’s true.” She leaned in close, a new look in her eyes as she opened her lips. “I’ll make sure I’ll give you a better wake up call tomorrow, ok?”

“I’ll look forward to it.” Kaneki chuckled and pressed his lips against hers.

Little did he know, they had very different ideas in mind and he only realised this when the first thing he saw waking up was Mai’s giggling face. Again.

Why did Touka fall in love with Ken? and when?

Mod K:

While we did answer this question already, I’ll try to provide a more in depth response to this question now. I have already done an analysis of Ken’s feelings, so you can think of this as a companion piece.

When Touka first begins interacting with Kaneki, she dislikes him immensely. She had initially tried to help him, thinking he was a ghoul like she was. She offers him an arm of a human man who was sexually harassing her. Understandably, Ken runs away from her screaming after seeing something that awful.

This starts her initial dislike of him – as Touka has always had something of a complex about being a “monstrous” ghoul. She dislikes that she has to kill and eat to survive, but does so because she wants to live despite her conflicting feelings about it. From this point on, she is snarky with him and she both teases and bullies him. She is even more furious when he outright calls her a monster after she attempts to force freed him after his first encounter with Nishiki.
