KahaFushi

KahaFushi is the non-binary ship between Kahaku and Fushi from the To Your Eternity fandom.

Canon
Kahaku was the 6th successor of Hayase's line, as well as the first male. He approached Fushi while the latter was still asleep, reciting out loud the titles of the books that the immortal was reading. Kahaku introduces himself, joking that he could bring a book about "love between men and women" because of Fushi's apparent interest in the topic. Kahaku says that he isn't going to attempt to seduce Fushi because he was into women. Fushi agrees to this statement half-heartedly and asks him his goal. Kahaku covers for Fushi when citizens try to capture him and apologizes for being unable to dispel the notion that Fushi was a bad person. The immortal kindly tells him he needn't apologize, to the ravenette's relief. Kahaku asks to be comrades, and Fushi agrees to go with him, as long as they can save people.

The next day, Fushi and Kahaku's Defense Corps patrol the streets, throwing away 'WANTED' posters of Fushi. Kahaku suggests for him to change forms, but Fushi dismisses the idea, calling it ridiculous. Fushi urges him to think of a plan in the meantime. Later, Kahaku brings Fushi to a town where he helps its citizens in distress. Kahaku praises him for the help, but Fushi worries if it was enough. A crowd of rowdy protesters attacks Fushi, but Kahaku calmly deals with the assailants, all the while protecting Fushi. He stretches the Nokker in his arm in order to attack and easily scares them off. Fushi asks whether he should be using that form, but Kahaku calls it appropriate for serving the immortal. Fushi notices how the Nokker in his arm is smaller than it usually is in the descendants.

At night, Kahaku advises him to change to a female form again, and Fushi finally agrees. After going through Pioran, Rean, and Tonari, he ends on Parona. Kahaku immediately starts blushing, insisting that this was the form that Fushi use. The day after, he wakes him up and treats him with more reverence than before, looking out for Fushi's needs.

After a talk with Todo, Fushi asks Kahaku whether a man can like other men. Kahaku is visibly flustered, and says that people were free to do anything they liked. He goes on to ask Fushi which gender he preferred, and Fushi reasons that since he took the male form more often, he would likely take a female lover. Kahaku insists that Fushi could still fall in love with a man, and then later wishes him luck in finding a sweetheart.

During their trip, Fushi (still in Parona's form) asks Kahaku whether falling in love was painful. Kahaku nods in agreement, saying that yes, it was.

When a Nokker attacked their traveling party, Kahaku uses the Nokker in his arm to save their companions. Fushi takes it upon himself to blow up the attacking Nokker, and Kahaku immediately asks if he's okay when he surfaces again.

After a few weeks of traveling, they come across a king who demands for Fushi to save his dying daughter. Fushi takes one looks before leaving the room. Kahaku pauses for a moment to stop the people from capturing Fushi, and then follows the immortal out to the garden. He finds Fushi sitting on a tree, having curled up in March's form. Kahaku attempts to comfort him, telling him a story about deceased souls in his culture. Fushi ignores this, and admits that he wants to die to be with all the people that passed on before him.

They travel to a town, and Kahaku immediately asks Fushi if he wants to walk with him. He realizes too late that Fushi had already gone on with Todo. Kahaku tells Bonchien that he identifies Fushi has more feminine, although Fushi hadn't acknowledged it yet. Not far after, Kahaku runs to Fushi, holding up the book on romance. He explains the meaning of "love" to Fushi, yet is horrified when he thinks Fushi had already fallen in love. He breathed a sigh of relief when he realizes Fushi is just talking about the doll in the shop. Kahaku seems pleasantly surprised when he hears that Fushi liked the book he recommended.

Fanon
Although Fushi typically takes on the form of a teenaged young boy, he can take on the form of many different ages and genders, making this a non-binary ship. Kahaku first claims that he wouldn't fall in love with Fushi, but ends up doing so anyway due to Fushi's female form (Parona).

KahaFushi is not a particularly well-known ship in the fandom, because Kahaku wasn't introduced in the anime; he only appeared in the manga. Some people also prefer to ship Fushi with Mizuha (FushiMizu). Some people also think the ship is problematic because 'since' Kahaku is the reincarnation of Hayase, and Hayase treated Fushi badly, 'therefore' the ship should be bad.
