🎁 little white gives something to the big bad woof
“Mr. Wolf, Mr. Wolf, before you come in for the party I have a gift for you. Cast your eyes over here to my basket, won’t you?”
“A potion to make sure you’re under my control... hehe... he... I am just kidding, of course... it is a flask. With the wolf you like so much on it. If you would use it and think of me at work, I would be very pleased indeed.
... It really is a spell to have control over you... hehe.“
OK LET'S GIVE THIS ONE MORE TRY. shirozukin: 21 nagisa: 9 tenri: 10, 16 komugi: 27, 40 kaneto: 6
21. Do they have a temper? Are they patient? What are they like when they do lose their temper?
Very patient! Shirozukin’s actually probably... abnormally patient. When she does lose her temper she gets creepy. She’s not the type to yell or punch but she does make some nasty threads and rambles on and on about how you’ll certainly regret one thing or that other. She can speak in a very gory/creepy fashion so it can be unsettling.
9. Do animals like them? Do they get on well with animals?
Nagisa certainly likes animals but they’re not the best with him. He’s always getting scratched up and punted by animals but he doesn’t mind. He doesn’t see them a lot because he’s from the city.
10. Do they like children? Do children like them? Do they have or want any children? What would they be like as a parent? Or as a godparent/babysitter/ect?
HE IS THE CHILD WHISPERER... Tenri is like the ultimate dad. Or more like ultimate mom honestly. Children love him and he’s a bit tsundere but he loves them too. He would be the best parent, he’s made for it, honestly. I think he makes an even better babysitter than a parent somehow because he just loves to be there and help and micro-manage but you picked the right guy for this because this is. Tenri’s jam. This is who he is.
16. Do they collect anything? What do they do with it? Where do they keep it?
Tenri is the saddest person you’ve ever met. He collects tea cups and tea pots. Both of them. And he has an abnormally large collection and he really needs to stop but he can’t.
27. What makes them sad? Do they cry regularly? Do they cry openly or hide it? What are they like they are sad?
Komugi honestly tries to be all >: D all the time so it’s rare for you to see her angry or sad. She cries laughing often because she’s a piece of shit and that she’ll show openly but anything else, not likely. As for what makes her sad... family stuff. :’ ) It’s easier to get her salty and angry rather than sad. Her life revolves around joking so being sad is her opposite end.
6. What were they like at school? Did they enjoy it? Did they finish? What level of higher education did they reach? What subjects did they enjoy? Which did they hate?
WELL NOW WELL NOW
Kaneto was dirt poor so school was troublesome. He got into a lot of fights and didn’t study a lot. He didn’t end up going a lot in general but he was good at physical education and hated math.
well I still don’t really know how to write Shirozukin that well but I’ll try
What they define their relationship with your muse as:
“Comfortable... right? I guess I could call it that. Why do I need to define it, though? It just is, like the plants and water. I’d call it a good relationship, if you’d insist on questioning, but really, bonds are... part of the unknown. They cannot be explained by conventional words...”
Something they like about your muse:
“Hmm... what isn’t there to like? I would not be around people I did not like the company of... Wolf-sama is very kind and he helps me a lot. I can reach all the high shelves when he’s around. And we talk, yes, it’s good to talk a lot, I enjoy it very much.”
Something they dislike about your muse:
“Wolf-sama can be a bit loud. The plants shrink a little when he enters a room, I don’t like seeing them scared like that...”
Their first impression of your muse:
“What a clumsy person... he clunk, clunk, clunks around and I am very surprised, the plants all jump up and yet he means no harm, he is merely lost. i suppose most people would think of this person as airheaded or silly but he was... well, he was just lost so I guided him. It was a good first impression though. Very storybook.”
Their impression of your muse now:
“Don’t be silly. Isn’t it obvious? Wolf-sama is my protector. He is the knight... though... maybe a huntsman... moreso? Or no, well, Wolf-sama is Wolf-sama so he must be a wolf. Protective wolf. Yes, I suppose that’s it. He is good to me, he is there for me... he is a wonderful person. Words don’t summarize my feelings so I shall concoct another potion for him as my thanks.... it’s important to be grateful.”
How they feel about your muse:
“I feel like I rather need Wolf-sama in my life. Dependence... kindred spirits... something like that? I can’t quite put it into words but I know he’s important. That’s enough, I think...”
Something they are hiding from your muse:
“Hiding... I am hiding his dirty gloves, they need to be washed... oh, were you? Oh, I see, you were asking something else. Well, I don’t tell Wolf-sama a lot about myself so I suppose... a lot of things. But that’s not a bad thing. Not everyone needs to know everything. It’s just a matter of timing.”
Something they wish they could to tell your muse:
“I can’t wish for things so easily... wishes are for very special occurrences. During full moons, with crystalline rain. You see how it is special? Yes, I am sure you do. So I do not wish to tell Wolf-sama much, no, I tell him the truth when it comes to mind. I suppose I wish he could hear the plants... that we could all communicate but that takes a lot of practice. And some magic, too. Not everyone has my powers. Oh. I guess. I wish I could tell Wolf-sama not to be afraid. I don’t think he is afraid, but it’s still good advice. I forget to tell people good advice sometimes. But it’s important. Very important...”
Hmm I’m not sure it’d be either of them but if it’s anyone it’s got to be Yuudai. Not only does Shirozukin just. Not have the strength to do that she’s just too chill and pleasant to try something like that. I feel like Yuudai would do it once and that’s it, I’m not sure.
Who is the better carer when the other is sick:
Deeefinitely Shirozukin. Caring for people is mostly what she does. It’s just, rather than people it’s more like animals or plants. And Yuudai, he’s too chuuni to realize when he gets hurt and stuff I reckon so he’d probably need someone to tell him to sit down and chill for a second.
Who would force the other to do extreme sports with them:
I don’t think Yuudai would ever force anything because he’s a good egg but he might get very energetic re: some things. So I do think it’d be Yuudai and I think Shirozukin would never be very good at them but she’d enjoy trying at the very least, having fun with Yuudai. It’s good to try new things after all!
Who would cook the better romantic dinner:
Shirozukin, probably. She’s a pretty good cook and I feel like she can make a nice atmosphere. Rather than ‘romantic’ it’d probably just be serene and peaceful though since that’s kinda her thing. She’s most comfortable like that and I think Yuudai would enjoy that.
Who would build the blanket fort in the living room:
OH GOSH... I can see either of them doing this but maybe I see Shirozukin doing it more? Then Yuudai rolls around like a g REAT BIG DOG AND MESSES IT UP AND THEN THEY REDO IT TOGETHER. But it’d be so big and fluffy because Shirozukin makes these home-done quilts herself and they’re so nice and fluffy and there would be so many pillows... they’d both really enjoy themselves.
Who would have the best holiday ideas:
I think Yuudai would have the best ideas but then forget them... but luckily Shirozukin would always be there to remember these things so she could gently remind him of things he’d said or even leave visual clues so he remembers himself. Yuudai he just seems like someone who’d get really into events.
Who would need to clean out the other’s stuff to make room for their own:
Probably Yuudai? Since if anything I could see Yuudai coming to live with Shirozukin in the woods it’d just be a matter of moving around her stuff and I don’t see him having a lot so it all makes sense like that.
Benjiro made accessories out of junk and pieces of coral and anemone that washed up on the beach. Since the neighbourhood kids grew to appreciate his presence they often got little sea glass bracelets and the like.
11. Is your OC a blanket hog?
You’d think so but surprisingly, he’s not. Nanase doesn’t actually move around a lot, if anything he moves away from covers, curling into a small ball or something. He doesn’t move a lot in general though.
7. What is your OC's opinion on body modifications?
Well this is a bit controversial but iiiiiiiiiiiiiiit does kinda depend on who we’re talking about here. Akai is quite quick to judge, yes, she likes to look down deep at people’s hearts for matchmaking and the like but she also makes snap judgements so she can better gauge what she’s dealing with. So it should be said she isn’t TOO superficial.
On the flip side, she doesn’t approve. However, females or nonbinary people (especially those on the feminine side) will get more of a pass from her. She DOES hold it against males more. She is unfair like that.
19. Something that makes your OC cry without fail?
The death of an animal. I think it /may/ depend on what type of animal but not much, she’s very affected by animal death because even if it’s a horrible predator she feels a connection to nature so strongly that it affects her personally.
49. Your OC's most prized possession?
Miyabi has a small box with a ring in it. It’s kind of a pretty ring but it’s a bit on the simple side. Even someone just touching it will send him into a bit of rage. It seems very personal. When asked, Miyabi is not inclined to give you any details about it, either.
39. A strange talent of your OC?
Mitsuba’s actually quite good with tongue twisters. It may not seem as impressive with her gas mask but she’s always been very good at them. She can also say very long sentences and big words without hardly pausing at all.
28. Is your OC a conspiracy theorist?
Hm, a little bit? If that makes sense. Matthias is like a casual conspiracy theorist, I do think he is one. He does suspect authority figures are lying and covering up the truth on several occasions but he’d never blog about it or speak on it, more just snidely comment on it if the subject or a similar one ever came up.
20. A obscure/ridiculous fear your OC has?
Hmmm I’m not really sure about a ridiculous fear... I mean, I’m not sure what’d count. But I’ll give it a stab. He’s got a fear of driving. He actually dislikes vehicles as a whole. It’s one of the reasons he’s all ~parkour~ now, so he can get wherever whenever.
35. What is your OC's favorite quote?
Mignon is someone who prefers to live by her own quotes since well, she’s very hammy, she comes up with a huge amount of inspirational quotes and lines. So her favourite would be one of her own. And it would probably be:
“Judge me not by the gloves I wear but the hands I have underneath.”
It’s actually pretty succinct and small by Mignon’s standards.
“My, Mr. Wolf, this looks quite serious. You went around doing something dangerous again, didn’t you...?”
Shirozukin’s voice is slow and calm, as it always is, despite the somewhat severe situation she’s in. The wound on Yuudai’s back is hardly what you’d call a scrape. She’s certainly accustomed to having him come to her wounded but still, it was usually never this bad. He must be out there being reckless again.
She scoots off the edge of the bed and finds a cabinet full of herbal supplies. The way she moves about, or glides about it feels at times, is so natural, like a swan in the water. It comes from complete comfort and knowledge of her surroundings. Perhaps it’s this knowledge that keeps her calm. Knowing everything is where it should be and that, should she work effectively in the time she has, everything will turn out fine. Not painlessly, she can’t guarantee that, but fine. She wrenches open a glass jar containing some leaves and grabs a mortar and pestle from a shelf unit behind her. She makes quick work of some of the leaves and continues to add a variety of plants and oils as she crushes it all up.
“Are you going to tell me what happened, Mr. Wolf? You should be honest with me. You know I won’t tell anyone, after all. And when you come to me like this, it gives me such a terrible fright.” Despite her saying such a thing it doesn’t sound like she’s all that scared. Her expression’s hardly changed and her tone seems as placid as ever.
Without waiting for answer she comes back, more bandages in one hand and her mixture in the other as she sits besides Yuudai once more. This time it does look like her expression’s changed as her eyebrows furrow.
“It’s hideous, Mr. Wolf... you must tell me what happened. If you get yourself into another mess, perhaps I will not be able to help... and that alone gives me quite the headache...”
Shirozukin sighs and then returns to her calm demeanour as she begins to dab the medicine over the wound. He occasionally seems to wince at the pain but she continues on, wrapping bandaging over it with a determined little frown. Hopefully it wasn’t a person who caused this. Or if it was, hopefully she wouldn’t find out who it was. That could end up being pretty bad... for them, that is.
Alrighty well this is gonna get long, obvi, so under the cut!
Kiyoyuki Irino:
2: Do they have any daily rituals?
Kiyoyuki has several; it fits his careful neurotic nature. First of all, he has to clean up his bed and anything else possibly mussed in the morning. he actually takes care that everything remains clean, even up to just, wiping table tops and the like. He carves out an hour (at least) a day for vocal training and it’s become a habit that he just, tests out his voice at times of the day. When he wakes up he also does like. Morning stretches and the like. He’s not that strong but he is pretty fit? Oh right, he also. Cleans his gloves everyday. Because he has worries about that.
And he does a bunch of small things too, feed Orihime (leopard gecko he owns), stacks and re-stacks things, stuff like that.
25: How do they see themselves 5 years from today?
This question has to be answered two-fold with Kiyo prior to character development and after. Old!Kiyo would probably see himself as a nobody; it’s his biggest fear, really, that he’ll just fade out of importance and get replaced. This sort of negative thinking explains quite a bit about him really. The Kiyo these days doesn’t know where he sees himself; but that’s part of what excites him. He wants to be better than he was and he’ll try his hardest to get what he wants. That’s all he’s thinking about right now.
31: Most prized possession?
Kiyoyuki doesn’t have a lot of objects he values so much. Orihime is his prized baby but she’s not really a possession. He loves his dictaphone pen and has a special jacket he’s never worn but that’s about it.
Sunao Nanase:
8: Favourite indulgence and feelings surrounding indulging
Chocolate, absolutely! He’s addicted to the stuff and he loves it. He sees it as a universal joy that everyone should enjoy and bond over. There’s never a bad time to eat chocolate. He’ll offer it to people.
17: Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dress
Good lord, you would ask this of Nanase of all people wouldn’t you
Well, as you can see in his design… he wears a coat and a track suit. For a pretty smart guy he can have some dim moments; he wears a coat to symbolize what he does and just wears the tracksuit because it’s comfy. He really just likes. Big baggy comfort clothing. And it helps if it’s even to run in. So not much in the way of rituals, he just throws it on. He doesn’t even care
47: How do they express love?
He’s an interesting case, actually. Nanase is kind to pretty much everyone so in regards to love he’s a little confused because well, how do you treat someone more special than everyone else even though you want to cheer everyone on? Since it’s something confuses even him, Nanase usually expresses it in how talkative he becomes. Because he’s often so sleepy the fact that he’s doing his best not to be sleepy and trying to contribute is something special. He’s a very curious boy but he’s mostly a listener; him taking an active interest in you by asking you things is quite special!
He’ll also just. Stare a lot. He doesn’t quite understand everything so he may just look at you a lot in the hopes of figuring it out. Then he’ll look away, a bit flustered and go back to looking, laughs
I think he might wear his coat less too? It’s a weird thing but like– it’d be a way of saying “please don’t think of me as a therapist or friend I’m here because I like you as a person” sort of thing. Then again I think if Nanase loves you he’ll probably bluntly say it.
Shirozukin:
14: Physical abnormalities? (Both visible and not, including injuries/disabilities, long-term illnesses, food-intolerances, etc.)
Shirozukin’s got very sensitive skin that makes it hard to be in direct sunlight. Honestly she’s still recovering from ‘some things’ so in general she’s a little bit weak, has especially weak knees.
33: Concept of home and family?
Phhhhewww not good?
In theory she loves the concept of home and family, she often envisions a sweet little cottage with parents, grandparents and three kids or something, very quaint. But in actuality due to her own life she doesn’t appreciate it too much. She believes in family in general though, just not hers.
44: Superstitions or views on the occult?
Incredibly important! She believes there are spirits and forces all around and that all of them must be properly respected. She is always spritzing around powders and leaving out plants for various purposes. She has several superstitions, some her own personal ones and others, more commonly heard ones. Like stepping under a ladder, she’ll never do that. She takes it quite seriously and dislikes it when others don’t heed her warnings or the superstitions.
In Shirozukin’s phone you would find a lot of pictures that seem out of this world - a lot of flowers and forest shots, and not a single person can be seen in any of them but the lighting always look so good, purples and blues, oranges and pinks, all so beautiful. There don’t appear to be any texts, it’s mostly just filled with these photos.
