The last player character in DeGaia, Akaash (oolongearlgrey)
After Suzume was killed at Belluhm, Oolongearlgrey decided to play a cleric named Akaash! In Eelors tower there is a number of portals. The only portal that was still active transported the Sparrows to a city named Greyholme. Greyholme is known for its arena where anyone can fight and earn glory! It's the number one attraction in the city, and it is there that the Sparrows met Akaash. Akaash was a Greyholme gladiator who insisted on ending his fights non-lethally. Normally this would upset the populace of Greyholme, but they soon decided that his way of defeating his enemies were a lot more entertaining and humiliating for the losing party. Elliot was drafted into the Greyholme Arena, because the portal from Eelor's Tower landed the sparrows directly into the Arena's holding dungeons. In order to allow the sparrows to leave, Elliot had to win in a duel with Akaash... The duel ended in a draw, a group of simians broke into the arena and attempted to crash that day's battle.
For some reason, Akaash refuses to remove his hood and robes. What secret could he be hiding...?

Just a quick one, this idea has been on my mind for days and I thought it would work for Akaashi :)
Y/n was sat on the floor with her back against the wall of the Fukurodani boys volleyball team's practice gym on Friday evening after school. Her headphones securely over her ears as she would smile to the different songs that would play, the book in her hands, The Silent Companions, keeping her entertained while she waited for her boyfriend to finish up practice. Well, she was making out she was reading but damn how could she when he black haired boyfriend was looking like a snack in his volleyball shorts showing off those toned legs and a dark blue t-shirt that match his gunmetal blue eyes. As the song changed a smirk spread over Y/n lips as she instantly recognised it. She pulled her headphone around her neck,
"Baby?" Y/n called out to her boyfriend, everyone in the room turned to look where Y/n was sat.
"Yea?" Akaashi asked as he started to walk towards her, the smirk largened on her face as he got closer, as she turned the music up to fall so she could hear it without the need to wear them, she stood up, but she still leant against the wall.
"You so fuckin' precious when you smile," She sang along with the song, Akaashi let a slight smile grace his lips.
"Hit it from the back and drive you wild." He placed a hand on either side of her head, his body towering over her petit form, as he continued the song, smirking at her now wide eyed blushing face and how she seemed to want to sink into the wall, as Akaashi kept his cool as if he had just hinted to the whole team about of their sex lives, his eyes burning with love and adoration as they stayed locked with hers. "Girl, I lose myself up in those eyes."
"I just had to let you know you're mine," He cupped her jaw, pulling her into a deep mind-boggling kiss, he could hear the song through her headphones. He pulled away, continuing the song.
"I'm so fucking happy you're alive." He was loving the fact that her blush was getting deeper across her cheeks, he didn't care if the team was watching.
He leaned down to whisper in a husky tone his favourite line in her ear, "I'll turn you into a bride, you're mine." When he pulled away, the blush was so deep across her face, that it had spread up to her ears and down her neck. Kissing her again before walking back over to the team who all looked gobsmacked. Y/n on the overhand was gripping her chest over her heart as she slid back down the wall, she was amazed she managed to stay stood that long, it was as if all the oxygen was ripped from her lunges, her mind was blank the only words that were running around her head was 'I'll turn you into a bride', she was not expecting Akaashi to do that.
Akaashi looked over his shoulder, too see the state his girlfriend was in, her face was still bright red, her eyes held an unreadable look, but he could see the love swimming in them.
"AKAASHI!" Bokuto came bouncing over to him along with a few of the others. "Since when do you know that song?"
"Since Y/n plays it all the time, didn't take long to pick the words."
"I think you killed Y/n," Washio said with a scared look on his face as he looked at the poor girl who was slowly starting to return to her natural colour.
"Y/n!" Bokuto called, her head snapped to them when her eyes locked with her boyfriends, the blush covered her cheeks and nose once again as she shyly looked away from him playing with her fingers that just made Akaashi proud that he could have that effect on his girlfriends.
The train ride with the others was full of laughter and jokes, but since they got off the train it's been peaceful as Y/n, and Akaashi wondered along quetly with fingers entwined.
"Did you mean it?" Y/n broke the silence, looking up at him, her eyes doe-like as she asked her question. He knew what she was referring to. He untangled their fingers and wrapped his arm around his shoulder, pulling her close. Y/n wrapped her arm around his waist and linked her free hand with the one around her shoulder.
Akaashi sighed as he once again read another article about Y/n L/n and Jason Derulo, or some other artist always presuming that they were together. He didn't want to be jealous, but he couldn't help it when he saw his girl with some other guys, wasn't that normal?
He knew it was going to be hard when he asked her to be his girlfriend. He knew she would be away often she would be travelling for tours and of course, meeting up with other artists to collaborate on songs, even though he knew that her new song would be a collaboration with Jason Derulo.
He trusted her, the same way that Bokuto would trust his sets back in high school, the way that Bokuto would always know that Akaashi would always get the ball to him to spike. He knew she would never cheat on him, that wasn't who she was. He knew by the excitement in her voice when he answered the phone, "Kei!" The excitable giggles paired with the massive happy grin he saw on video call on the rare occasions that she could. Usually, it was voice messages or texts with the time difference, but some times she would stay up late so they could video chat, he would let the small smile grace his features when she would rub her eyes cutely and yawn. The way he would tell her to go to bed cause she is tired and she would pout innocently saying that she wasn't worn out. She would ask about his day listening as she slowly doses off, he didn't take it as an insult he just knew she was exhausted. He would sit there smiling at her sleeping face, looking like an innocent child, where she still had her phone in a light grip facing her.
"Good night, my Juliette sleep well. I love you."
"I... l-love you too my Romeo" would often be mumbled back, in her half-dazed state. With Akaashi's love of literature, Y/n just slipped it out once called him her Romeo and ever since it stuck.
Running his finger around the rim of his glass he sighed, it had been a few days since he had heard from her, he knew she was busy he had seen on her Twitter and Instagram that they added more tour dates in America as they stadiums had sold out. It had been eight months since the pair were actually in person together.
"AKAASHI!" He flinched at Bokuto's sudden loudness as said boy appeared next to him. "Why so, mopey? Oh, you're missing Y/n aren't you!"
"Hey my Romeo, I'm sorry I haven't called or texted you in a while, the tour has gotten so hectic recently we are doing two shows a day, so most of my fans can come, and watch and my manager wants to add even more dates." He smiled, enjoying the sound of her voice even if it is over voicemail, and she sounded exhausted. He had woken up for work and seen that he had missed a call from her at three am. "I know you're going to ask when I am going to be home, but I don't know at the moment, but soon I hope I'm going to tell my manager that I need a break. I hope to be home for Christmas."
Rolling his eyes, he shrugged and gave a slight nod to Bokuto's question.
Bokuto suddenly felt terrible for Akaashi. He didn't know how he felt. He didn't have a love like Akaashi. His passion is for Volleyball is his true love right now. He remembered the day he introduced Akaashi and Y/n. She was at an after-party of a game that the Black Jackals won and Bokuto dragged Akaashi along. It was like the couple connected instantly and they soon got together. Bokuto would often turn up at Akaashi's find them sprawled out on the sofa, Y/n with her head in his lap, his fingers running through he hair as he read a book to her. Bokuto had gotten many pictures of them like this. He loved how relaxed Akaashi was around her, a way he hadn't seen with anyone else.
He knew that she was going to say that.
"Anyway I miss you my Romeo, I cannot wait to be home and in your arms again. I want to be in our little bubble of love and cuddles, of you reading to me while you play with my hair. I want to be in the studio with you listening to me sing my new songs and telling me which words would work better with the lyrics I have written." He laughed he did often sit in the studio with her after he finishes work, reading over her new lyrics and crossing out the odd word and putting one that worked better with the theme of the song. He loved watching her pick at the strings of her acoustic guitar playing a few cords and seeing if they worked when she ran her fingers over the keys of the piano. He loved that she could play different instruments.
"I love you so much, Romeo. I hope you sleep well. See you as soon as I can. Bye-bye, my sweet Romeo."
About three weeks later he was sat at his desk eating his lunch, watch the recent interview Y/n had with OK! Magazine.
'So Y/n, when the tour is over what is the first thing you're going to do?' Chloe, the interviewer, asked
'I think it will be sleep we've had some busy months recently, most days doing two shows to it is hard work.' He laughed along with his beloved.
'We've been keeping up to date on your social media, who is this Romeo you keep mentioning, we often see and I quote, I miss you my sweet Romeo, or I love you, Romeo.' He would always reply, but his account was private so no one unless they followed him and accepted it.
'My Romeo is waiting for me at home; I promised him I wouldn't mention him until he is ready for the spotlight as he isn't an actor or musician. But he is my Romeo, and I am very excited to get home and be with him again.' He was so glad that she didn't spill the beans about their relationship. He already had enough of the spotlight with being friends with most of the Black Jackals team, he already has his pictures in magazines when the team goes out, and he gets dragged along with Kuroo by Bukoto and Hinata.
'Can you tell us one thing about him?' Chloe pushed for more details about him. He loved how Y/n's nose would scrunch up, and her left eyebrow would shoot up as he tapped her chin in thought.
'He was a volleyball setter in high school.' She smiled. Akaashi smirked at the fact she gave, there were many setters across the world, and narrowing down to him would be hard. 'And he is my bookworm,'
'A setter and bookworm, those don't often go together!' Chloe laughed, with Y/n soon joining her.
'I know, and I have Shoyo Hinata and Kotaro Bokuto. But honestly, if it wasn't for him I'm sure some of my songs wouldn't make sense, a lot of my lyrics in my book have his scribbles in changing the odd word here and there, I would often wake up finding him hovering over my lyrics book a mug of coffee in hand proofreading them for me.'
He couldn't help the chuckle that slipped past his lips at the dig at Bokuto and Hinata's dislike for books.
'He sound's like a gem! But back to the fact you've met the Black Jackals numbers twenty-one and thirteen. What are they like?"
"I've met them all I know all the Black Jackals, all their school friends too, I met them all after a match against the Cheehle Ekaterinburg, an old friend Morisuke Yaku I knew from my middle school days invited me along, and that was where I met them. Those two boys even though they were bouncing around the court like anything they still had so much energy, I was shocked that anyone could keep up with them, it was like they were children who had just walked out of an all you can eat sweetshop.'
This caused Chloe to giggle. He liked the way Y/n slyly slipped in how they met.
'this Romeo of yours you didn't happen to meet him through your old middle school friend, did you? At this party' Akaashi's eyes widen as the interviewer hit the nail on the head, he was impressed at how Y/n kept her facial expression in check, just the usual smile she used for interviews,
Saturday 5th of December 2015 was the day that Y/n finally returned home. She didn't tell Akaashi she was on her, she knew from Bokuto that they would be at his favourite restaurant that serves his favourite food, Nanohana no Karashiae, in a private room at the back. She drove her car into the car park of the restaurant, taking a deep breath she pulled on her cap and her dark sunglasses as she got out and walked into the restaurant, telling the waiter that she was here for the Bokuto party he nodded and showed her to the door.
'Ah, well it was through mutual friends that we met.' He loved how she deflected the question, not letting them on that it was at the party they met.
He leaned his phone against the pen pot on his desk, leaving the video to play, while he got on with his work, the questions had now turned to make-up and what shampoo she was using.
"Thanks, I'll be fine from here." She knew from the photo that Bokuto had put up on Twitter that Akaashi had his back to the door, purposely done for this exact reason. Pulling off the hat and glasses, she quietly opened the door slipping in and once again quietly shutting it. The room slowly went quiet as eyes suddenly locked on to her figure. Akaashi frowned at his friends, why did everyone stop talking all of a sudden and why Bokuto and Kuroo had whipped out their phones, pointing it at him, till he started to follow their line of sight.
"Happy birthday Romeo." She giggled as he slowly placed her back on the floor, their foreheads resting against one another.
"I'm home, my Romeo." His eyes instantly locked with hers the second he heard her voice, as the smiles so wide crossed their faces as he flew out of his seat wrapping her up in his arms, tightly as if he loosen his grip she would disappear again, he spun her around. He was ecstatic she was home.
Nine months, eleven days, sixteen hours and thirty-eight minutes since the last time he held her in his arms. Since he lasted kissed her. Since he last looked into her beautiful deep e/c eyes.
"You are the best birthday present I could ever ask for." He said as he entwined his fingers into her hair, pulling her into a deep kiss that was long overdue.
