Ransara

Ransara is the het ship between Sara Chidouin and Ranmaru Kageyama from the Your Turn To Die fandom.

Canon
The real Ranmaru died before he could meet Sara.

In Chapter 2, Part 2, Sara is able to find and watch the victim video of Ranmaru's death. After watching the entire thing, she feels a tinge of envy for him being able to die peacefully without having to witness people dying and killing each other. She declares that for his sake as well, she will escape the Death Game.

In Chapter 3, Sara and Ranmaru's AI doll were partnered together for the Murderer Sub-Game. All of the participants who were still alive would have a dummy to support them; someone who had already died and never met any of the surviving participants. Sara and Ranmaru so happened to be paired up. Since they are connected together by the "Red String of Fate", if they get too far apart the dummies' head will pop off, killing them, so it is important to stay together.

At one point during their investigation, Sara notices a sign by the bathroom doors that looks like two people holding hands. In hopes it would trigger something, she holds Ranmaru's hand, causing him to get flustered. Sara tells him he's too tense and will waste his battery power, to which he replies, "A-And whose fault is that...".

Inside the room, they meet a girl who asks Ranmaru if the two of them are just a pair for "the objective's sake", or are they partners. Before they leave the room inside, Ranmaru stops Sara and asks to tell her something important. Sara can jokingly ask if he's professing his love for her, which catches him off-guard. He then tells her that he kind of doesn't like being "just a pair".

Later on, a new aspect is added to the Sub-game. A game of tag will be played, where the person who is "it" by the end of the time limit loses. In the route where Shin lives, Ranmaru takes the burden of being "it" from Sara, when she began to freak out.

Fanon
The most notable thing that immediately fueled this ship was the hand-holding scene. It also sailed due to the fact that Sara and Ranmaru were chosen as partners by a "red string of fate".

The ship is mostly between Sara and the AI version of Ranmaru, since the real Ranmaru is dead and never met Sara. However there are AUs in fan works where Ranmaru survives and is shipped with Sara.
