♥ “S-So I need suggestions… I’m a Demon Slayer back home, but there isn’t really a use for that career here. What type of job would I be suited for? I can’t keep mooching off everyone…”
“What other talents do you have? Maybe instead of demon hunting you can be a... dog catcher! That’s kinda similar, isn’t it? Just less hunting and all!”

“ typically i am uninterested in such things, but i wish you good tidings nonetheless. “
“Aw, shucks! Thanks, Sephiroth! Birthday wishes are a little meaningless here to be honest, but it’s nice getting them too! I really appreciate it!”
‘are you decent?’ not morally, but im wearing pants, if thats what youre asking
“Oh! It’s my birthday today! I guess I’m technically twenty? But really, who’s keeping track of that!”

✧ ❝ You know, when the war finished and I wanted to see more places, this is not exactly what I had in mind… In fact, it’s far from it! Oh, this is such a bother…! ❞
“Is the city not your style? Maybe you’d prefer the country side? I totally understand if that’s the case, though! The city life can be a little too much at times - so loud and a little too hard on the eyes sometimes!”
“Love is always a wonderful thing! Ahaha, I wish I was as lucky as some of the people here... But I’m sure my time will come!”
She’s confident.

As Jack walks through Spirale City, he feels like he’s caught in the midst of a kaleidoscope, a whirling storm of light and sound and color, of strange sights and stranger faces. It doesn’t stop, it does anything but stop: it intensifies. When he reaches his breaking point, which doesn’t take very long, he practically sprints down a side street, and almost runs into a young woman.
When he regains his balance, he opens his mouth, but it’s not to apologize:
“Where’s a payphone.” Jack puts on his best impression of a polite tone, but it only takes him so far. There’s a tightness to his expression, in his posture, in the way he clenches his fists.
He belatedly remembers his manners, and smiles—though it comes out as more of a grimace.
“Please.”
There’s always interesting characters that come along in Spirale City, but this sure is a new one.
Bumping into someone always seemed to be a popular trend here, too, and yet this one felt a little different than usual. Emerald eyes peer up at the man she had ( almost ) bumped into, a look of worry on her features. She wasn’t sure what was going on with him, but he seemed like he was in need of help. Should she call the police, an ambulance?
“Oh, are you alright, sir...?”
When he regained his balance, Monika took a step back to give him some room. His request, however, contorted her expression into one of confusion.
“Payphone...? I think there’s one around the corner, but I can’t say if it’s in service. Do you need to call someone? Your phone can do that for free - no quarters necessary!”

Adonis, from ‘Psalm’, Selected Poems (trans. Khaled Mattawa)
sexuality & gender diversity headcanons. here’s one for the lgbtq+ muses: put a number in my ask, and i’ll tell you about my muse’s gender or orientational identity and their relationship with it. tw: topics of homophobia, transphobia, dysphoria and discussion of internalised oppresive attitudes in some of the questions. if you want to help your followers to pick out questions a bit, tag this post with your muse’s label(s) as you reblog!
what do you label your muse as, and how do they label themselves? is there a difference, and if so, why?
has your muse’s understanding of their own identity changed after realising they aren’t cishet, and do you see it developing further in the future?
when did your muse first realise they’re attracted to the gender(s) that they are?
when did your muse first realise they’re not attracted to the gender(s) that they aren’t?
when did your muse first become aware that they’re not cis?
when did your muse first become aware that their gender identity isn’t within the binary?
how public is your muse about their gender / sexuality / romantic attraction?
is your muse out as lgbtq+? how specifically and in what situations, if that varies.
how much does your muse’s gender identity and presentation differ from one another? is this a source of issues, or does the relationship between the two feel natural?
how does your muse feel about not being cis or straight? are they content with it, proud, ashamed? would the situation be the same if the culture or surrounding support systems were different?
have there been other meaningful people of the same or similar identities in your muse’s life that they’ve looked for support or understanding from? how did that go, and was the impact positive or negative in the end?
what are your muse’s feelings towards stereotypes relating to their identity? do they affect their self-image, or how they perceive others?
was your muse ever in denial about the matter? do you have any examples of specific instances where it was particularly obvious?
has your muse had feelings or experiences that seem to / do conflict with their identity? are these general knowledge? does it alter how others see them, or how they see themselves?
if the thing that originally caused them to realise / start the chain reaction to realising they weren’t cishet had not happened, how much longer would it had take to end up here?
do they consider to ‘always have been’, or do they see the phases in their life before coming out as ‘back when i was [cis/straight/allo]’?
how are their feelings towards pride and related phenomenons?
how does their family feel about the matter? friends? coworkers?—and does their thoughts matter to your muse?
what’s your muse’s relationship with the current state of their body?
what are your muse’s feelings towards the culture of romance and sexuality as it pertains to their identity?
what words do they reclaim, what are they okay with being reclaimed, and what do they do not want to used to describe them?

“It does make you wonder what goes on in their heads while making these decisions — to pick and choose, and what about each of us they chose over a friend, relative or stranger. With all there is going on here, it’s no surprise you two haven’t had much time, but maybe you’ll have an opportunity to sit down together and catch up. I wonder if she’s having the time of her life here; for some our age, it’s surely a paradise to get out of school and live in a city with so many trappings for young adults”.
As the responsible one, her head shook at the mere imagining of managing sunburned skin, recalling occasions in her childhood where her uncle would become such a victim and she his nurse in an odd role-reversal. “It is. Though I think I can understand the appeal of tanning, actually doing it isn’t something I’d dare try. Not with the risk it carries of getting overcooked and how ugly a sight that can be. They say about beauty being worth pain, but I don’t buy it — and certainly not that much”.
“I wonder that too! To be honest, ‘m kind of plain, so I’m not really sure why they would even think about bringing me here. I mean, I just run a literature club with my friends, there’s really nothing extraordinary about me, really. But... I don’t know, it’s probably best I keep my distance with her for a little while longer. She’s shy back in my world, so I think having her go out and meet new people would benefit her a lot! But I’ll try and catch up with her soon, I promise.”
Ah, well, maybe. Monika wasn’t much of a promise keeper to begin with. But maybe she should say hello to Yuri at least once.
“There is appeal, I agree! But I burn sooo easily that trying to tan is just hopeless to me as a person! I think I’ll just stick to a little bit of makeup here and there. I don’t believe the beauty is pain nonsense either. If someone truly likes me, they’ll like me for my inner beauty and not my outer beauty!”
so! monika’s never dreamed before, even during her current time in isola ( her dreams have mostly been, uh, dreamless! ) so this is going to be a... very new thing for her! that being said, a lot of her good memories will be taking place during her time in the literature club, which she already has mixed feelings about but hey, time to confront your demons in some form, right?
anyway, like this post for a starter! gonna go ahead at cap at 4.
What I’ve Done - Linkin Park
“Oh yeah, the sun likes to go out a lot for anyone still confused by this place! It’s pretty normal. I’d say just worry if the sun is glowing another colour or something, or surrounded by a ring of fire like last time!”
LAST TIME?!
“Oh! A bookstore! I’ll have to check it out soon! I wonder if they have anything I’m familiar with...”
genesismaiden:
”Couldn’t argue with you there. Perhaps if you take precautions, such as some water set aside to clean your feet and have your shoes packed away before stepping onto the sand, it would make the time after less of a hassle. Reading between the sun and a towel is, itself, quite enjoyable — provided the noise around you isn’t too much a distraction — but if you’re in danger of getting too into your book, it might be safer to go along with company so you don’t burn while you’re at it. You probably wouldn’t think it, but better safe than sorry”.
“Ahaha, that’s all very true! Usually I have my friends with me when I go to the beach but... well, most of them are home aside from one that’s here, but I don’t really get to talk to her much these days since we’re just doing our own things and all!”
Or, well, maybe it’s because Monika’s actively avoiding her. Could easily be that.
“It is better to be safe than sorry! I burn super easily, so I’m always putting sunscreen on me whenever I go out in the sun. It’s nice feeling the warmth on my skin, but I don’t enjoy peeling like a snake!”
“Beaches are fun and all, but the amount of sand I have to pour out of my shoes is a little questionable at times! Personally, I prefer spending my days inside with a good book, but everyone needs sunshine every once in a while!”
