works where specifically kaidoh has interaction with or related to rikkaidai. some are gen, some are shippy.

• Changechildren
  • Rating: T
  • Superpower AU
  • The fic that prompted me to make this list LMAO Rikkaidai and Kaidoh's interactions are too precious to be missed.
• 'The Dead Angel' (All Rikkai & Kaidoh, Yagyuu/Niou)
  • Rating: R
  • Warnings: Violence, sex
  • Dystopian sci-fi AU.
  • Kaidoh is depicted already dead and the fic focuses mainly on 2882, so he's literally just mentioned hahah. Fantastic, well-written. The violence and dark emotions are described beautifully. The roles are so correct and appropriate.

i don't know the best/appropriate euphemism for this..
