Kabukimono was your everything. You both shared secrets with him, he even let you call him Kabuki which was silly to the both of you. Whenever he'd smile, you'd smile too. Whenever he'd laugh, you'd laugh too. Whenever he'd cry, you'd be the first to comfort him. You knew everything about him. Ranging from his favorite color, favorite fruit, favorite person—which was once you,—and told you all about his backstory.
So you both made a promise, and promises were a will to live in Kabukimono's eyes. A sign to keep going in life.

That day when the cruel world claimed Kabukimono's life, leaving you alone with his innocent spirit forever gone, was the darkest moment in your life as he was now known only by his new title: The Balladeer, also known as Scaramouche, the Sixth of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers.
