IchiZhao Week Day 4: (Angst) Betrayal
Warning: Mild blood... though not in the way you would normally think. I thought I would put that warning out there anyway. Plus, this contains spoilers for Zhao's Drink Link in Yakuza: Like a Dragon. So, all of this is kept under the "Keep reading" cut.

Akira Mabuchi (a former friend turned into an enemy of Zhao's) gets caught on the act of vandalization using a glow-in-the-dark version of his Crescent Blade. Now, there's a good reason why Zhao isn't in this shot...
...And that's because this is taking place inside his heart (literally), similar to the movie Fantastic Voyage. Basically, Zhao's chest was feeling a consistant sharp pain, so Ichiban has shrunken himself down to find the source of that pain.

This is one of those picture sequences where I wish I could use Blender, SFM, or the like for both pictures. But, I don't have the skills or the patience to do so (interior design and Photoshopping are pretty much the best I can do for 3D art right now).

IchiZhao Week Finale: Free Day
May 5th, 2021- The very first dream I remember having of the IchiZhao pairing, featuring the two going skydiving and Ichiban breaking a wooden board in mid-air.

Extra note: Ichiban's hand is not swollen. It's a superpower glow.

IchiZhao Week Day 6: Karaoke Night / Date Night
First stop Ichiban and Zhao make on a night with just them together: an arcade. Ichiban is trying his hand at a giant crane game that picks up actual furniture as prizes. Ichiban manages to grab a couch with the machine.

Now, a little arcade late night talk...

Next stop: not just karaoke night, but an entire concert night. Ichiban and Zhao become one of the acts performing at the concert.

Finally, the two have dessert at a soda fountain.

IchiZhao Week Day 5: Sightseeing / Vacation
Zhao and Ichiban are in one of those rooftop swimming pools as the sun begins to set in the city. Zhao rides on a giant unicorn-shaped pool float, while Ichiban wears a smaller one in the shape of a donut.

And another pairing with the Homestyler website: Zhao and Ichiban are having a fast food dinner at a cabin they're staying at while on vacation.

IchiZhao Week Day 3: Late Night Talk
This is a simpler one featuring Zhao and Ichiban discussing a few things before hitting the hay for the night at an AirBnB. What exactly they are discussing is left for interpretation.

IchiZhao Week Day 2: Homecooking / You Tian
In this universe, You Tian gets paired up with Crazy Eats so Zhao can deliver food from his resturant to various households around town. A few of these nights have Zhao and Ichiban doing deliveries together. Though, poor Ichiban has to carry the boxes that are slipping...

YIPPEE!!! HAPPY @ichizhaoweek!! (β β§β β½β β¦β ) Day 1- Alternative Outfit / Crossdressing! β‘ #IchiZhaoWeek2024
IchiZhao Week Day 1: Alternative Outfit / Crossdressing
Ichiban and Zhao go on a fashion photoshoot for this one. The outfits shown in order are default, Freaky Friday-type situation / outfit swap, crossdressing, pastel spirals, and rummage sale (featuring a few outfits I've previously liked and/or reblogged here on Tumblr for the last one in particular).





Bonus pic of their photographer, Joongi Han... wearing a bear costume for some reason. (He probably wanted to get in on wearing different outfits as well.)

Tomizawa is having a hard time deciding which energy drink and/or coffee flavor to get for himself. After all, he likes his caffeine.
