( Sending Myself A Question - How Silly. :'3 )

❝I heard you called a certain someone a 'bully'.❞ What a hilarious, childish name. She knew of that man's true nature having witnessed it first-hand, growing accustomed to it, welcoming that darkness herself. A snort soon followed. ❝I wonder if you would say the same to his face. Whatever you might believe after me after that fall-out we had, he is ten-- no, an infinite time worse. I would be careful if I were you, but you can ignore my advice.❞ [ For Yukimura. ]

      When the other spoke to him, his cat-like golden eyes shiftover. It’d been a while since she’d went out of her way to speak to him. And?That was fine. Perhaps it was childish of him, but he wasn’t the type toget angry often – so when forced into that position, it made him ratheroff-put. Not that he’s prone to holding grudges, necessarily, however? He wasn’tgoing to be the same chipper man for a while yet. He was put into a rather tightposition at that time – and that was withouther coming in and speaking to him when she’d already made up her mind onhow that encounter was going to go.

      “So what if I have?” Yukimura eventually sighs out the words, frowning alittle as he scratches the back of his head. “I have never been one to refrainfrom speaking my mind. And I feel like bully is the most acceptable thing I couldcall him. Especially to Isanami. It’s best to respect the fact that she doesn’treally like swearing.”

      However, he does listen to her the rest of the way. Therewas little in regards to a physical response – his eyes remained on the crimson-eyedwoman. Listening, in respectful silence, before nodding a little after shefinished. “I suppose I can try to remember that, should I ever meet him myself.”The words were spoken briefly, curtly, but earnestly. Pulling out his fan as hespeaks then – snapping it open to cover the lower half of his face. “However, Ishould remind you of something I said to you before: I don’t fear death. ShouldI lose my head for something I said at a poorly timed moment? Then that isbecause it was fate that it should happen that way. And perhaps if you’reconcerned for how I approach thisman, you should be more careful not to allow him around gentle souls likeIsanami.”

       If she was implying this man was a threat towards UEDA, thenit was her who should be careful – asit was her who had brought him this direction. The LORD of UEDA didn’t hold hisold charming face for her at this time.

       If she thought this man was a threat, and she was the reason he was here – then itwas HER, who should be watching herself. Because if something did happen to hispeople under her watch, then the freedom she had around here would be revoked.He’d been rather open and kind to her, he’d always been. After all, he was arather OPEN MINDED lord, by comparison to most. But if she started activelybeing a threat, or bringing threats, into his land? He would have to change histone. As the Lord, his duty was first to his people. “I appreciate yourcandidness about this. I’ll make sure my Brave’s are properly informed on thefact that he is a treat. But, unless you have information on how to deal with him - I’m unsure of what you want to do by giving me this information.”

smiletorn‌:

Personal space wasn’t an issue, it seemed. She remembered when they both were uncomfortable with each other. Their first mission together, finding out that she had to ride on a horse with him, had been dreadful even for the youth that adored hugs. At that time, even if he didn’t show it, it must have been awkward for him, right? Well… even if it had been, she supposed it was that shinobi part of him, accustomed to carrying out missions no matter the awkwardness.

Since then, his touches had been scarce, careful even. Establishing that mutual respect between them, at least, the willingness to work together despite her own grievances, led to many things. The adventures she listed, for one… but? This moment of intimacy, in a hug that Isanami would deem common to her, was kind of…

For lack of better words? It was kind of embarrassing. Even for someone as shameless as her. Being around Hanzo didn’t make her uneasy anymore. She even accepted his head pats time to time. But she wondered why she felt self-conscious of herself — silly Isanami, maybe that’s how you made everyone else feel when you hugged them out of nowhere — before shaking it off mentally. She was fine with the hug and Hanzo. She just needed to figure out the mysterious reason why it was different, but that was a thought for another time.

Accepting her terms, she let out a soft giggle. It wasn’t too much to ask, right? She could only imagine the reactions of the other Braves if they happened upon Hanzo running an errand for her, however strange it may be. Or maybe they were used to it? Briefly, she wondered if any of them saw the time where she decided to bake cookies on his arm…

Anyway! It was his next words that brought her out of her stupor. Rolling her eyes playfully, she reached up and pinched his nose. A scolding gesture, showing her disapproval of his choice of words.

❛ Idiot. It’s not that you want to be human. You are human. ❜ Letting go of his nose, she gazed up at him with a gentle smile. Though the word ‘idiot’ was one of her rarer ‘curse’ words, she figured it was fine to use it for him again. One of her weirder endearments, so to speak, but this time her tone of voice lacked a bite. ❛ Hattori Hanzo-san, you are a human. And humans are allowed to make mistakes. Humans are allowed to be clumsy. Humans are allowed to learn. ❜

Lifting up her hand again and poking him on the forehead, she maintained that smile, though it spread out into a cheerful grin. Getting rid of that solemn mood and hoping to bring his spirits back up. ❛ I’m here, aren’t I? I’ll take your promise for — ah, no, I have another condition for that promise. Do you know the yubikiri? It’s what I did with my shrine sisters whenever we made promises. ❜ A childhood classic, but given their different pasts, she didn’t know if he actually knew it. Admittedly, it was a little childish thing, but he knew by now it was no big deal for her.

So, she wriggled a little in his embrace, a silent message that they needed to separate for a little. Then, she grabbed his hand and brought it to the level of her eyes, which were sparkling with mischief as she hooked their pinkies together. 

❛ Yubikiri genman,         uso tsuitara hari             senbon nomasu. ❜

Humming a little aftertune, she swung their hands back and forth. ❛ Tell a lie, get your finger cut off, and swallow a thousand needles after being punched ten-thousand times. Sounds painful, right? That’s why I’ll trust you won’t break your promise. ❜ When she had been told the meaning, she admitted it was a little gruesome, but it was just a display of words. Not to be taken seriously. Just a little fun for children back then.

❛ But… I’m glad you won’t push me away. I’ll wait. I’ll wait as long as you need the time. I think it’ll be worth it. Show me what a Hanzo living in the future looks like. ❜ And her next steps towards him, laughing and tackling him into a friendly hug, she kept her head tilted so she could watch his reaction. ❛ And when that time comes, you can be the one to hug me first again. Just so I know it’s the real deal. ❜ Sticking her tongue out playfully, she reached up and ruffled his bangs, having an idea of what his answer would be.

      When the youth pinched his nose, Hanzo flinched a little – not because it hurt, but because he was sorta the king of over-exaggeration, and he was trying to keep her smile there. He wanted her to be happy, and given that he’s the one who had created this uncomfortable situation for the two of them? He wanted to help remedy it the same.

      “… I’ll keep that in mind, Isa-chan.” Hanzo responds earnestly. Finally, it appeared that his tears had entirely stopped, and he seemed to have settled a little. The tightened feeling in his chest was still there – but it was no longer pain. It was no longer DREAD. “Seems like I’m a few steps behind, but I’ve always been good at learning things if I really set my mind to it. So, it seems I have a new assignment.” He adds with a laugh – he’d always been a SPLENDID shinobi. Quick to learn abilities and quick to manage his F I R E despite it being an absolutely chaotic element.

      When she pokes his forehead, he laughs a little – it was a soft noise, still dampened by his earlier mood. But? He was genuinely amused by her response. “Another condition? Alright, I’m willing to hear you out.”

      I mean, the BRAVE of FIRE had no idea what she meant by YUBIKIRI. He’d never heard of it before, it wasn’t exactly the sort of thing you would find people using in the Iga Village. Shinobi were serious people – they had no time for childish things like that. But, he was willing to hear her out. It was a curiosity for him anyways.

      When she wiggled a little, he gave her the distance she seemed to need – and when she reached for his hand, the crimson-haired man gave it to her without question. Allowing her to hook their pinkies together and recite the phrase. “Am I supposed to say it too?” He asks, curious, before listening to what she explains what it means. Laughing a little, he comments: “Priests and priestess’ used to say this? I’m a little concerned.” I mean – it sounded like a like average torture for enemy shinobi, but? Hey, who was he to judge others. “… I won’t lie to you, Isanami-chan.” Hanzo replies, nodding a little. “But, I will remember this promise. You have my word.”

      At some point – he would be able to approach Isanami and show her what she was hoping to see.

      Someday, he hoped to be Ueda’s BRAVE of FIRE more then a shinobi of IGA. Someday, he’d be happy to show her what a Hanzo who lived in the present and lived for the future would be – And though he didn’t know what that looked like, and had no idea how he would go about doing just that… the thought of a future like that? Had him smiling regardless.

      “It’s a deal. I’ll remember that.” And when that day came – he would wrap his arms around his smaller friend, and tell her what he’d accomplished.

      ( … but more then that… he’d like to tell her what a big part of his life she’d become. As his friend. And in many ways, as the person who encouraged him to keep t r y i n g. This GENTLE darkness… had saved him from his own scorched earth policies on life. )

      With that, he finally releases his friend. Smiling as the other ruffled his hair a little. “When I have accomplished all you’ve asked of me,” He starts, standing upright before putting his hand over his heart – bowing slightly, playfully, he winks. “I’ll sweep you up into a proper hug, partner.” And with that, he stands up again. Closing the distance between them once again for a moment, before very carefully moving her hair from her forehead with a careful sweep of his hand and kissing her forehead gently. A chaste and honest thing that he’d never done before. “Until then, you have my apologizes. I know… I can be a bit slow at these things. But if you’re patient with me, I will do my absolute best to meet all of your expectations of me. I want… to be a proper friend to you. So I will figure it out, you have my word.”

      However – when he’d first arrived, he’d just gotten here after a mission. And the exhaustion from it was finally hitting, now that the adrenaline from his own anxiety was wearing down. He looked tired, and his molten eyes looked weary still. However, the smile that sat on his lips was earnest – soft, awkward, but? Kind.

      “… thank you for meeting with me, my friend. I caused a bit of a scene, but? I’m really glad we talked. I need… to rest now. But, when I wake? You should expect that I’ve got some things I’ll be working on.” He says with a laugh. Amusement in his eyes. “I’ll see you later, Isanami-chan.”

// angie yonaga - verses

{ NDRV3 } –                  ( ver ) .killing game╰☆╮(❝Angie Yonaga❞)

       [ Contains spoilers for NDRV3 ]

       This is the verse that will be used for canon timeline / killing game variation threads! So, anything that happens within the game – whether we keep it to its canon or make a variation of it? Will likely be tagged with this one! However, due to the newness of the game? I intend to leave this purposely vague for now. Once I’m satisfied that most people have played/watched the game? I shall update this a little more properly! But, basically speaking? If they’re within one of the “KILLING GAMES,” I shall be using this tag!

{ Hope’s Peak Academy / (Class 79) } –                  ( ver ) .class 79╰☆╮(❝Angie Yonaga❞)

      A despair-less verse of the nerds going to Hope’s Peak Academy, rather than the Academy for Gifted Inmates – somewhat based off the “Talent Development Plan” extra, at the end of NDRV3. In this verse, Angie will have been recruited for her talent the same as everyone else.

      Brought to the class for her talent, Angie is excited and enthusiastic about the change of scene - given that her island is relatively small, and she had known the same people her whole life? Meeting others is pretty exciting for her! She is eager to make new friends, and to get to know what places outside the island are like.

{ Mystical AU/Orsus } –                   ( ver ) .kit (kumiho)╰☆╮(❝Angie Yonaga❞)

      A very young kumiho, she was only born about twenty years ago - which, given what she is? Isn’t very old at all. She is young, and wants to learn about a lot of things. And some of the best ways to learn? Is to experiment and experience. Making her? One of Orsus’ only mandatory members. Having been sent there by the council for the fact that - if she continued to interact with the public? It might be dangerous for all of them.

      Kumiho possess an item called a “yoewu guseul” - a small marble, really, but? It is a part of the kumiho themselves. And being in possession of it can make it possible for those holding it to have divinations of things to come - given this little ones affinity for art? She’s taken to seeing what things are meant to exist later - and creating it now. ( Causing a bit of a stir in the art world, and even ruining some up and coming artists careers, because people thought they were copying someone else, then. )

      Now that she’s been sent to Orsus, she’s caused a lot less trouble. However? She hasn’t exactly decided to become a functioning member of their society ether. Her tells, include her long fennec fox-like ears ( yellow-gold in color ) as well as a very puffy, almost round looking, yellow but white-tipped tail. ( It sorta looks like a paint brush. )

// adlet mayer - verses

{ Rokka no Yuusha } –                   ( ver ) .chosen╰☆╮(❝Adlet Mayer❞)

      This is his canon timeline verse ; Adlet, having been chosen to be one of the “Braves” has begun his travels to help his fellow “braves” seal the Majin. He has one of the “Crests of the Six Flowers,” resting on the back of his dominant hand. In this verse, there is a lot of confusion - after all: despite being honored to be chosen, and being the “strongest man in the world,” his words not mine, … there are too many braves. Never have so many been chosen. So? There must be a traitor … or a liar. A lot of this verse is Adlet trying to pull the team together, and trying to work alongside of each other, while trying to figure out who the traitor could possibly be.

{ Hakuouki Verse ( Traveling Merchant ) } –                   ( ver ) .merchant╰☆╮(❝Adlet Mayer❞)

       A master of “trick weapons,” Adlet Mayer finds himself often called upon by those seeking weapons and such - He doesn’t sell to just anyone. His weapons are his passion, and he won’t have them used to back a person or group he doesn’t agree with. So? For the most part, he is a traveling merchant … Forever looking for new things to make his weapons with, and continuing to smith and forge what has got to be some of the most unique weapons in the country at this time.

{ Brave 10 Verse ( Kindly Traveler ) } –                   ( ver ) .unbound╰☆╮(❝Adlet Mayer❞)

      A traveler with little in mind for a goal - he travels the lands to try to learn things a little more first hand. Something that had been recommended to him by his teacher, the man who taught him to fight, and to build. Now? He is doing just that. Traveling the countryside, traveling from city to city, to figure out things for himself. Learning more about local and foreign plants, poisons, antidotes, weapons - and becoming something of a craftsman in the process. He considers himself something of a traveling gentleman, however. So? If approached with an issue? He’ll do what he can to help those in need.

      … which is probably why he is always suffering from lack of funds.

{ Rokka no Yuusha – Active Traitor } –                   ( ver ) .bitter╰☆╮(❝Adlet Mayer❞)

      All he’d ever wanted in the world … was to be chosen as one of the Brave’s. To be given the chance to prove himself, to make up for what happened, to save people like he was once unable to. All he’d ever wanted was to be a hero. To prove that he didn’t have to be a prodigy or naturally talented to become a hero. And? He fought and trained every day, proving himself again and again with tricks, weapons, and everything in the book, to do so. And yet? Here he was - Here was everything he’d ever dreamed off, and? He hadn’t been chosen. He hadn’t accomplished anything. And? If he couldn’t accomplish his dream, if he couldn’t be chosen on the grounds that he wasn’t “good enough,” he’d damned well prove them wrong. The Goddess choose poorly. And he would prove it. Even if it meant slaughtering those she had chosen.

// fuyuhiko kuzuryuu - verses

{ “School Trip of Mutual Killing” } –                   ( ver ) .tragedy╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

      This is the main timeline for SDR2: The beginning wasn’t so bad – It was confusing and that had put him on edge, he was yakuza,he couldn’t exactly afford to simply brush it off. This could have been an incident. It could have been a kidnapping for all he knew. However, as far as he could figure out? It didn’t look like it. Not at first, at least. But, once the killing game got announced, he made sure to separate himself from the group… while leaving a way for him to continue to get information inside of the group. Of course, even this didn’t work out in the end. Leaving him in a situation where he eventually became a part of the group. But, even then, he could be aggressive and defensive.

{ Normal School Life } –                     ( ver ) .yakuza╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

      This is the primary verse for any DR3: Despair interactions!

       Despite the fact that he had always attended class anyways, with the arrival of their new teacher, Yukizome, things have gotten a lot livelier. Sure, he still is reserved. He tries to keep himself a little bit away from his fellow classmates – after all. He does have a rather dark talent. And he doesn’t want people to heavily be involved with him or his family. This doesn’t mean he’s unwilling to spend time with his classmates, however. It just means he might have some reservations when it comes to getting to really know someone.

{ Island Mode AU } –                      ( ver ) .trust╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

      Despite starting out with what he was pretty sure was a kidnapping, it appears their “Teacher,” the overly enthusiastic rabbit, wasn’t lying. This really does just seem to be a place meant to form friendly bonds with one another. To create “hope” with one another. However cheesy that sounds? It doesn’t appear to have been a lie. So? Despite his restrictions at first, he does start to warm up to the others. “If I don’t, we won’t be able to leave anyways. This is in my best interest.” Sure it is, Fuyuhiko. Sure it is.

{ Despair Days } –                    ( ver ) .twisted╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

       With despair twisting his mind? Fuyuhiko is a savage leader and a ruthless companion to the “Remnant’s of Despair.” After all: Who is better suited for this sort of bloody work? He was the Ultimate Yakuza. From the get go, he had a small army’s worth of people willing to follow his every order. When he fell into despair? It was only natural that he would become one of the more frightening of them. He has an intelligence network. He has warriors willing to do anything he asks. And? He has no shortage of plans of what to do, and how to do it, when it comes to plunging the world into despair.

{ Post-SDR2 / DR3 } –                      ( ver ) .waiting╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

      ( The primary verse for Post-SDR2 and during DR3:Future&Hope )

      Being one of the survivors from the Neo World Program’s killing game, he like the others, had decided to stick around. Waiting for their companions to awaken. And? Once they did, they were more then happy to repay the favor. After all: They wouldn’t even have this chance if it wasn’t for a certain few who had decided it necessary to give them a second chance. Sure, life is going to be a little difficult - but? That is their repentance. Something Fuyuhiko is more then willing to live with.

{ Mystical AU / Orsus } –                    ( ver ) .debt collector (demon)╰☆╮(❝Fuyuhiko Kuzuryuu❞)

      A member of Orsus’ community for ages, he honestly cares very little to get involved with the others on the island. As long as they never become someone he has to collect from? He tries to give everyone their space – with the exception of his partner, Peko.

      Fuyuhiko is a demon of an unranked position – after all, he’s related to arch-demons, and yet? He doesn’t want a place amongst them. So? There was a compromise. He would be allowed to live on the surface, so long as he took a specific job. He’s a demon in charge of “collection,” fetching the souls and such that were promised other demons in exchange for longer lives, riches, and the likes. He is very intolerant of people trying to offer him counter deals, however…

      For the most part, Fuyuhiko normally looks like an average human. At least, until his powers are used – Any use of any of his abilities will make him lose his bind on his appearance, revealing his spiral horns on the side of his head, and his lengthy claws. His eyes also blaze red whenever he’s using any of his magic. Specifically his “ascension” magic, which he can use to pull souls out of bodies painlessly, assuming they don’t try to make a deal with him. Any attempts of bargaining, and he’ll use a far more violent method.

// chiaki nanami - verses

{ “School Trip of Mutual Killing } –                     ( ver ) .tragedy╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

      The baseline of threads for the timeline of SDR2. So? Threads based on the Mutual Killing Game will use this, usually.

      ( Spoilers for SDR2 and DR3:Despair/Future/Hope ) ;; One of the many students brought to the Island for the Neo World Program. At the very least, that’s what everyone is meant to believe – While in truth? Chiaki is a created program based on everyone’s cognitive thoughts on someone who would be best at helping them all. She is not created of the true Chiaki, and is instead made of the memories and thoughts the others had of her, even if they don’t remember her much themselves. Regardless, she is considered the “Traitor,” because she is also considered a member of the “Future Foundation” and is meant to guide them all into recovery. Usami’s sister.

{ Normal School Life } –                      ( ver ) .gamer╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

        At first, a quiet high schooler just trying to go through school – after all, she’d rather be gaming, she eventually found out that gaming was also a good way to interact with others and make friends. Something she took to rather happily, actually. Cheerful, though still quite, the Ultimate Gamer was chosen to be the representative of the class eventually. And? Acted as something of a focal point of “hope” for the rest of her classmates. In general? She’s just a shy nerd who wants to make friends. After all: Sometimes, it’s nice to have a player two~

{ Island Mode AU } –                    ( ver ) .trust╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

      With Monokuma and AI Junko defeated from the get go, the rehabilitation of the former Remnant’s of Despair can happen without much trouble. So? To help them all make memories, bonds, and help them form hope? The lot of them are put through a lot of silly little events and group bonding experiences. Chiaki is there to help move the rehabilitation on, after all! That’s what she’s there for! And, honestly, she’s happy to do so. She’s happy to do anything she can to help her friends. ( Even if she won’t be able to leave with the rest of them, she’ll be happy just as long as they don’t forget her. )

{ Future Foundation AU } –                    ( ver ) .traitor╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

      Somehow, having survived the “Death Game” put together by Junko Enoshima, Chiaki woke up to the world in disarray. Her classmates had fallen to despair. The world was falling apart. And, because of the seriousness of her injuries… it had taken her some time to wake up. And? By the time she had, in a coma, she had been brought to Future Foundation. ( When she recovered and actually started getting the lay of the land, she became a member of the 7th Branch. ) However? When the Remnant’s of Despair were brought it, and when Naegi did what he did – she was quick to go along with them. ( “They’re my classmates! Please, let me help you! Let me help them!” )

{ Mastermind (AI) Chiaki } –                       ( ver ) .despair╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

      Built to help save the others, she tried to do just that - Absorbing the virus data that she found forming inside the Neo World Program, before it could fully form. Unfortunately, this formed a stream of “RED DATA,” overwriting her initial programming. Instead of wanting to save them, she now has only one goal - Keep her classmates here. Forever. No matter what. Anyone trying to leave, would be considered a traitor. “I built this paradise for you, to help you, and this… this… this! This is how you treat me! You traitors!”

      There is no game. Chiaki has no interest in any game. Any battle. She is data and given the data put into her unstable programming, she can manipulate the remaining data at will - The only thing the others on the outside were able to block her from, was being able to directly manipulate the data that made up the consciousness’ of those who were supposed to be receiving help. If your in this program, you’ll have to try very hard, very sneakily, to get out - because she’s not going to make it easy.

{ Mystical AU / Orsus } –                     ( ver ) .afterglow (weisse frauen)╰☆╮(❝Chiaki Nanami❞)

        Chiaki Nanami is a member of the Light Elven breed. A type of elf that is famous for a few things – one? They are a breed of all female elven folk. They have never had anyone who is full Alven who is a male. Two? They are famous for guarding treasures, and making near games of watching over them. Enticing strangers to play their games and – to this day? Always, always losing. ( After all: other breeds, humans included, are only allowed to marry a member of the Weisse Frauen if they beat them in their game and capture their treasure. )

      Chiaki has only just become old enough to have obtained her treasure. However? Unsure of whether she wants to marry or not – or even what sort of game she wants to do? She thought it would be wise to surround herself with other members of the Folk, to try to get some original ideas.

      Traits of her breed include perpetually pale skin – and yet? Being entirely unable to see any of the veins in her arms, or through her skin at all. Her ears, which are harshly pointed. And the fact that she literally glows in the dark. ( And yet: At night, that’s all her body can do. She has no other access to her magic during the nighttime. )

// ruruka andou - verses

{ Future Foundation } –                    ( ver ) .future╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Leader of the Future Foundation’s Eighth Branch, Ruruka Andou is a bit cold and distant – A leader, as well as a member of the Future Foundation, but clearly disagreeing with certain key concepts that they run by. She is the former Ultimate Confectionist, having been kicked out of Hope’s Peak Academy … after a particularly eventful batch of tests. She is only particularly close to the leader of the Ninth Branch, Sonosuke Izayoi.

{ Despairless AU } –                   ( ver ) .safety╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Despite being kicked out of Hope’s Peak Academy – She’s managed to make the best of things. Eventually buying and opening up a shop of her own. Which? Has done very well. Even being a disgraced member of Hope’s Peak Academy, means you have a lot of skill. So? People still happily come to her shop. And? In her own ways, she’s made peace with what has happened – She’s still successful. It’s not like she was ruined. And? She’s even begun reaching out to the people she blamed for what happened. It’ll do no one any good to stay bitter forever.

      Alternatively ; She was never kicked out of Hope’s Peak Academy, and continued to study there alongside of her friends – However? Eventually, as events played out, she eventually learned about how she was treating Seiko. It was a harsh lesson. One she didn’t appreciate, nor did she really want to realize. But? Once the truth was out there … she did her best to figure out what she was doing wrong. Of course, it’s not an immediate change. But? She is trying to be a better friend for … all of them, honestly. She doesn’t want to be that person.

{ Survival AU } –                   ( ver ) .recovery╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Despite the sheer effort she’d put into trying to kill herself, being under control of the brainwashing power of those videos … She managed to live. If only barely, she managed to live. She will never be the same. What she saw in those videos … did more to damage her then any of the wounds she inflicted upon herself. She is full of regret, full of anger, and… She is determined to keep living. If she’s alive, when her friends can’t be… she is determined to live. “If I’m alive, despite my efforts to kill me? Then I need to live. If not for me… then for them.”

      She is not quite the same. She is damaged, slower, she has a lot more trouble making things. She has scars all over, emotionally and physically … And Ruruka will continue to stubbornly try to survive. And to make some sort of contribute to the slowly rebuilding world.

{ School Days } –                   ( ver ) .confectionist╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Recently brought into Hope’s Peak Academy’s class of 76, she is the Ultimate Confectionist. And as such? She is known to make many different types of candies, sweets, pastries, cakes – Desserts in general are her specialty. However? She does have a very particular personality. Feeling vulnerable, she tends to keep herself around her stronger friend, Izayoi … but? Having confidence issues, having her friend Seiko unable to eat her candies … hasn’t helped. This has made her a little bit bitter-sweet. Even if she understands what the other says, about being unable to eat them, it still is a blow to her confidence.

{ Idol AU } –                   ( ver ) .manager╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Ruruka Andou is a very busy woman. Often busy with scheduling, setting up meetings, as well as trying to meet with new local talents … You can say one thing for sure: She is one helluva manager. When she’s decided to take a personal interest in any particular talent, be it a singer, an artist, a musician… ? Whatever? If she’d decided to put her stamp of approval on them, she’ll be the first person to burst into any scene to try get the person she’s backing the support and advertisement she feels they deserve. She is the first to be at the scenes for good deals, the first to actively be looking for advertisement availability – signs, ads, commercials, etc. She is passionate about what she does, and who she helps. live.

{ Genderbent AU } –                   ( ver ) .lemon drops╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Name ; Rikiya Andou

      The Ultimate Confectionist and a former member of class 76, Rikiya is a strange young man. And, also, the current Head of Branch 8. He is strong willed, passionate, and confident in his abilities – However? Despite the confidence he shows, he is also somewhat fragile. He doesn’t trust people who have betrayed him. And? He is very slow to forgive a perceived offense. He frequently becomes nervous in life threatening situations, as he’s not willing to die, and because of that? He often finds himself half-hiding behind his stronger friends…

{ Deciding My Future } –                   ( ver ) .creation╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Ruruka has somehow survived the “DEATH GAME,” and? Has decided to leave the Future Foundation – Deciding, instead, to start her own group. She had mentioned wanted to do so, and after the carelessness of what happened? She had stated from the get go that she’d thought it was a bad idea for them all to be gathered, so? When things went wrong, she hadn’t been surprised. Now, the leader of a group she calls “DREAMS&DAYS,” a group that she has dedicated to helping fix the world in her own way. Perhaps it’s not as efficient as the Future Foundation had been … But as far as she’s concerned? They can shove it.

{ Mystical AU / Orsus } –                   ( ver ) .change (harpy)╰☆╮(❝Ruruka Andou❞)

      Gentle in appearance but quick to anger – Ruruka is actually one of the people who have been on Orsus for at least ten years now. In fact: She’s settled in pretty well! Making her own café and running it, more or less, on her own. ( She’s hired help here and there, but she often fires people… )

      She is a young harpy by most standards. And? For the most part, she would prefer people don’t bring up her race at all. She tries to spend most of her time pretending that she isn’t a harpy… Though she considers herself a member of the Folk, she gets deeply offended when people bring up the stereotypes and history of her race. (After all: many legends call her race hideous and cruel – so?) Being a little over a hundred years old, she’s finally able to turn her wings into arms, and keep her talons into only sharpened nails. The only trait she is entirely unable to hide are her ears, which are feathered.

      When surprised or angered, her eyes will flash a warning, predatory, yellow. And her teeth become jagged and sharpened – when she becomes her harpy form, she has control over wind and can summon storms. However? The fact that she’s uncomfortable with what she is, and she doesn’t like to pull attention to that fact? She has never learned to control these things.

@carnifcx continued from [ x ]

      When the younger of the two of them makes his comment, Gladiolus grins a little and shrugs. The truth was he didn’t understand what was running through the younger two’s minds. They were acting goofy, but? The “SHIELD” recognized it as them probably attempting to do their best to not overwhelm Ignis on his birthday/day off.

       “I assume they know that already? But, who knows. Noct might be avoiding you so that he doesn’t accidentally start asking you for things – it’s sort’ve second nature for the king-to-be.” Gladio states, making his way over to his friend and companion. Unloading the mini-hoard next to his blond companion.

      The golden-eyed man had picked out a few things for Ignis – various little necessity gifts. Things that would make his life easier, such as a thermos for coffee, a better sewing kit, a new travel set of appliances. The boys? Had gone a little more in the goofy direction. Noct had bought Ignis many cans of E B O N Y, as well as a cook book that claims on the cover to know 50 recipes in which you could use Ebony as an ingredient. Whereas Prompto had picked up a stuffed animal – large, round, and plump. Supposedly it was a bird? And the shutter-bug had said he’d picked it because it “looked like Ignis” but? Honestly, Gladio couldn’t see the resemblance. Nor could he say it looked anything like a bird. But? The boys were goofy.

      “It’s not a problem, you know that. You needed a break. Hell, you deserved one. Though, on that note… I ordered a cake for you. It’s gonna be here in a while. But? I figured I’d warn you. So you don’t ruin your appetite.” Oh, the times he’d heard that last phrase himself – it was funny to get to use it himself this time. Though, it was somewhat embarrassing for the Shield to admit he had to order it. Ignis was the only real competent chef amongst them. And it wasn’t like he could serve CUP-of-NOODLES and MUG-CAKES for his companions’ birthday.

// hiei - verses

{ Post Series } –                   ( ver ) .wanderer╰☆╮(❝Hiei❞)

      Hiei, after losing the demon tournament, appears to be comfortable where he’s currently living. Finding himself remaining around Mukuro’s side, regardless of the fact that he’s more than free to leave at any time. Now? He patrols the Demon Realm, returning humans that had lost their way back to their own side of the now nonexistent barrier. A strange job for a man who hates humans, hmm?

{ Demon Tournament } –                    ( ver ) .challenger╰☆╮(❝Hiei❞)

      The second tournament that Hiei partakes in. This time? Due to a decision Yusuke made. About exactly how the new ruler of the demon realm would be chosen. ( I will also be using this tag for the “Three Kings Arc,” until I decide to make a separate verse for it?) He is a man who still seeks strength, to some extent, however? He doesn’t particularly have many goals at this time. Leaving him with the resolve that it’s alright to die. He doesn’t seek death, but? If it happens, it happens. He appears to be a little more willing to befriend and talk more honestly during this time… should the mood strike.

{ Chapter Black } –                    ( ver ) .parolee╰☆╮(❝Hiei❞)

      At this particular moment, the fire sprite lives in an assigned area of sorts. Keeping himself out of trouble, and remaining within these grounds, at least? Until he is finally off of his parole. It promise of early release from his sentence that truly gets him to work, again, with his old allies. However? He appears to be drawn a little further into everything as time goes on. Could it be that he’s gaining a small soft spot for the lot of them? Not likely.

{ Dark Tournament } –                  ( ver ) .teammate╰☆╮(❝Hiei❞)

      Regardless of his personal feelings about working with a team? Hiei has decided to go along with the Spirit Realms plan to throw him onto a bit of a makeshift team, led by the very detective that had first defeated him and gotten him punished. During this time? Hiei is particularly brutal with his self-training. Welcoming the pain and punishment, as long as it yields gain just as great. During this time? Hiei learns how to master the “Dragon of the Darkness Flame,” though? It does appear to have its back-draws.

{ Beginning } –             ( ver ) .seeker╰☆╮(❝Hiei❞)

      The Jaganshi, Hiei is a small, vicious, fire demon who has more than his fair share of secrets, plots, plans, etc. He appears to rely mainly on his speed and his skill with the sword, at this particular stage in his life. However, what is it that particularly drives him to do the things he does? Could it be that he has some mastermind like goal? Or could it be something far simpler than that …
