LEONARDO DICAPRIO SUO HAYATO / WIND BREAKER

application.⠀⠀⠀&⠀⠀⠀statistics.

novas has a smiley character again you know how it goes ( they are a menace )

freshman and one of class 1-1's vice captains, but as far as his peers are concerned he's just their fellow classmate. a kind and gentle person who can also be a fierce protector when it calls for it.

as of this time of writing, has no known backstory. i told myself i would wait before i try rping him anywhere but my impatience got the better of me. oops!

will never give you a straight answer about himself. he lies as naturally as he breathes.

won't eat in front of anybody. drinks only!

has yet to take a single major injury in the series. partially this is because his fighting style focuses on deflecting his enemies' attacks and turning it against them. the other reason is because he's a slippery bastard.

tries his best to be a disciplined young adult and has the aura of a mature teacher but still has his moments where his emotions get the better of him.

generally a friendly kid! be friends with him and he'll tease you to death.

THE HEIROPHANT.

The plan is perfect in every way. Everyone where they need to be, at exactly the right moment, with exactly the right smile. You have moved and manipulated the situation, but did you remember to put yourself in the correct position? You, after all, are still a player in the game - whoever thinks they control the pieces still has to make the next move eventually. Whoever is playing the game is playing against an opponent. Ensure that they have not played better than you.

( this is basically just a very self indulgent list of various fluff, angst, and suggestive themed dialogue sentence starters. )

❛ i could keep you safe. they’re all afraid of me. ❜

❛ i’m trying to fix your hair, so hold still. ❜

❛ your heart is beating so fast right now. ❜

❛ promise me you’ll still be here when i wake up. ❜

❛ you’re not as bad as everyone says you are. ❜

❛ i thought you’d like some company. ❜ 

❛ clean yourself up. you're getting blood all over the place. ❜

❛ here, give this a try and tell me what you think. ❜

❛ you can kiss me, you know. ❜

❛ come back to bed. ❜

❛ you look good like this. ❜

❛ working together again, it’s just like old times. ❜

❛ how is it you always know what i need, huh? ❜

❛ you’re lucky you got away with only a scratch. ❜ 

❛ i can’t imagine losing someone like that. i’m sorry. ❜

❛ you know you can always talk to me. ❜

❛ the only one who gets to kill you, is me. ❜

❛ so, what do i owe this pleasure? ❜

❛ ah, so you aren’t heartless after all. ❜

❛ may i have this dance? ❜ 

❛ it’s okay, you can touch me. i won't break. ❜

❛ enemies make the best lovers, you know. ❜

❛ hold still. this might sting a little. ❜

❛ we can't keep doing this. ❜ 

❛ you look like you've got something to say. ❜

❛ just relax and let me take care of you. ❜

❛ thought you’d be lighter without all that blood. ❜

❛ i had it under control. you didn’t need to do that. ❜

❛ everything looks so beautiful from up here. ❜

❛ you treat all your ladies like this? ❜

❛ well? how do i look? ❜

❛ can’t sleep? ❜

❛ do you mind if i smoke? ❜

❛ i’m scared of ending up alone. ❜

❛ i don’t think i’ve ever seen you smile. ❜

❛ how long has it been since you've slept? ❜

❛ you are losing my interest, and that’s very dangerous. ❜

❛ i’d suffer hell if you’d tell me what you’d do to me tonight. ❜

❛ you look really pretty right now. ❜

❛ i’ve never cared for anyone the way i care for you. ❜

❛ i’m not wearing any underwear. thought you’d like to know. ❜

❛ just a few more stitches and you’ll be as good as new. ❜

❛ i’d say we make a pretty good team. ❜

❛ i want you to forget this ever happened. ❜

❛ i'm here for business — not pleasure. ❜

❛ if i didn't know any better, i'd say you were jealous. ❜

❛ you'd look better down on your knees. ❜

❛ fine, keep acting like you hate me. ❜

❛ kiss me again. ❜

❛ are you asking me out on a date? ❜

❛ just sit there and look pretty and let me handle this. ❜

❛ you okay? caught you staring off into space again. ❜

❛ well, i do feel better now that you're here. ❜

❛ i'm not drunk enough for this. ❜ 

❛ why is it whenever we see each other, you’re covered in blood? ❜

❛ i was wrong about you. ❜ 

❛ the first time i met you, i had no idea you'd mean this much. ❜

❛ you gonna be a good girl / boy for me? ❜

❛ i’m not afraid of you. ❜

❛ books mean more to me than people anyway. ❜

❛ i just wanted to say thank you for protecting me. ❜

❛ how about a kiss goodnight? ❜

❛ i don’t have time for distractions right now. ❜

❛ you shouldn’t be out here by yourself. ❜ 

❛ if i have to think about one more thing today, my head will explode. ❜

[sparklingsplendor]

"Wow like one of those special sealers? I've heard of them but meeting one in person is another story."

Not that Sparkle particularly believed the story in the first place. For starters a gem inside earrings that could keep some evil spirits at bay sounded a bit suspicious. Although the idea of getting a similar set to test her own theories did sound enjoyable. And it beat the alternative of missing out on a fun opportunity like this.

"A set to go along with my masks? Count me in~~. There's bound to be somewhere around that could work the same magic."

[teahees]

        It didn't really matter if the lie was believed or not, it's the reason why Suo is comfortable with spouting such nonsense in the first place. What's important is what kind of conversation could lead up from this - and what he can learn about someone else in the meantime.

        "It's almost certain - this place loves to get everything and everyone from different worlds, after all. Or maybe they would work differently?"

        Either way, he wouldn't mind taking a merry trip to the marketplace.

[moonregalia-deactivated20241125]

@teahees

🌙 - "I appreciate you stepping in but... how do I put this?" Hakuno eyed a fallen man a few feet away from her, incapacitated by a boy who had intervened in a conflict she'd been having with him. To be fair, the man had been yelling and had even raised a hand to her. So, the boy was justified in stepping in.

"The one in the wrong in the first place was probably me."

The teenaged girl scratched at her chin guiltily. "I thought he was a thief I was looking for but he wasn't. Guess it was his fault for raising his hand to me, but..."

[teahees]

        Today have been like any other day, as far as Suo is concerned. And that includes the short tussle that has led them to this very scene. Patrolling around the neighborhood has become a habit that is hard to shake himself out of, even though this is not the town that he has sworn to protect. And yet, could he truly call himself noble if he were to turn a blind eye to someone who could have been in danger?

        He already has a blind eye, you say? Ha ha. That's what they all say.

        Besides, Suo hardly roughed up the poor unsuspecting fella - all he did was a simple toss and he was down for the count. There isn't a speck of dust on him as he smiles towards the person he more or less saved.

        "That may be true, but a misunderstanding like that shouldn't lead to raised fists."

        That sweetness remains when he turns back to the guy muttering about his back on the ground, although perhaps one might find that sweetness to be mockery when it comes from the guy who just threw you down.

        "It's unbecoming to throw a tantrum once you reach a certain age, sir."

[teahees]

        "Wow, it sure is lively around here."

        And a bit too noisy, if he's being honest.

[hopeled-archive]

" Ah, I'd be careful about that if I were you." it wasn't uncommon to find people peeking into the endless hole located in the center of the city. it was both ominous and intriguing, but after a few years here, it becomes something part of the normal, everyday life of Spirale. which means there's a good chance this person was new to the city. or something of a thrill-seeker. either way, she can't not say anything.

" You'll die if you fall in. Trust me."

@teahees

[teahees]

        "— Oh?"

        Don't worry, Ritsuka! Despite how close he is to the edge of the hole, leather shoes mere inches away from stepping into air instead of pavement, Suo does have an excellent sense of balance. "It does look pretty deep. Not exactly a fall anybody could survive!"

        Perhaps someone else, especially one with a fear of heights, would feel their legs turn into jelly as they peer below. The cold wind would leave them inclined to take a few more steps back. And while he turns his singular eye from the abyss to the girl beside her, it is done moreso out of politeness rather than a desire to distract himself.

        "Is it an effective way of disposing dead bodies?"

        The young man's pleasant smile remains intact, as if they were engaged in a short conversation about the weather.

[ostentumm]

"Tom cruise?" What an interesting name! "Hah! It makes you sound like some powerful person!" Certain names had that kind of vibe to it, didn't they?

Oliver would be none the wiser in knowing if this was the boy's actual name or not.

"There's a lot of places to check out! Like some of the best places to eat is over at Star trail." With all the vendors lines up, the snell of delicious food was hard to pass up.

[teahees]

       The fact that the actor's name isn't familiar to Oliver would be the most surprising thing about this conversation, Suo thinks. Not that it shows on his face, when he's perfectly content to keep going with his bald-faced lie. Suo isn't actually against revealing his real name at a later date, but isn't this much more amusing?

       Indeed, humoring this energetic fellow has provided a lot of entertainment for the day. The food, as promised, looks scrumptuous indeed - although not scrumptious enough to break through his iron-willed discipline.

       "They do look delicious," Suo nods, and despite the non-committal response he is sincere on his remark. Hopefully they would accept take out? "Which one here is your favorite?"

various things spoken in an adventuring party pt.2

part 2 of an assortment of quotes and sayings i've found doom scrolling through pinterest that i think an adventuring party would say during their never ending perilous adventures . please do not copy/repost or add to this list, thank you!

[teahees]

        Oh, Suo is very much familiar with people of this ilk. He isn’t one to judge someone by its cover, of course, but it is admittedly difficult not to assume when he has seen many others who dress and carry themselves like him — and not all of them have been amicable encounters at that. He’s sensed that presence from the scum and gangsters that cause havoc in their town, the very kind of people the Bofurin were created to expel.

        The only thing that stays his hand is the fact that he’s not really causing any trouble at the moment, and who is he to judge through appearances alone? Would Suo himself not be considered a delinquent in other places, no matter how well-mannered and calm he presents himself to be?

        No, there’s no need to start conflict when it doesn’t exist. It would be far more interesting to see how someone like him can live a normal life in this place — or if there is more than what is seems.

        “You seem to have been here for a long while, care to show me the ropes?” Suo approaches the far older man with his usual smile, undeterred by the difference in their age and presence. “I’ve been wondering what are we supposed to do here in the city.”

@sanpatron

[teahees]

        “Goodness, this place sure is lively for a prison.” His blunt words do not match the fond exasperation on Suo’s face at all. “I should be glad to find other people my age in here, but doesn’t that mean they aren’t above kidnapping teenagers?”

        And sure, if he actually had a chance to fend off his attackers Suo would at least put up a good resistance — but it all pretty much happened in an instant. A shame. If he got the chance, he could have at least made sure that the perpetrators would get some broken bones.

        “Do you know if we’re still supposed to go to school? Or are we forced to pretend child labor laws don’t exist?”

@fifthmagician

[teahees]

        Forgive the mild surprise on his face, Sakura. Especially when they were last together, you were bruised and beaten — but not defeated, Suo would add to his thoughts with a bit of pride in his chest. It had been a harrowing experience, almost losing their captain to Endo's poisoned words, but he remained steadfast in his trust and belief.

        Still, while he does trust Sakura-kun, he definitely does not trust Endo at all. And the last thing he remembered before ending up in Spirale is their backs slowly disappearing into the shadow of their school building. Who knows what could have happened in those moments?

        If this were still back in their world and time, it would have been easy task to confirm upon their return. But Sakura must have been here long enough for his injuries to have been healed, since he looks . There's some injuries, yes, but that must be from a more recent scuffle: it doesn't look like there's a lot of bleeding, at least.

        "Your hair and eyes stand out even in a place like this, Sakura-kun." If it weren't for those circumstances, Suo would have welcomed this reunion with his usual cheer and teasing. But this time his jab is too light, and tinged with worry. "How are you feeling?"

@gradecaptain

[teahees]

        Were one to ask what prefers between tea and coffee, Suo would pick tea in a heartbeat. It’s part of his routine at this point — a cup in the morning after meditation, another cup or two when he hangs out with his friends, and at least one more before he would call it a day. That being said, he isn’t against the prospect of drinking coffee altogether. It may not be his first choice, but it could do in a pinch.

        The need for a beverage or even food isn’t the reason why he decides to pay a visit in Cafe December, however. He simply needed a quiet and peaceful place to while the time, and the cozy nook showed much promise from the outside. And if Kotoha-san of Cafe Pothos were of any indication, a cafe owner in a place as quaint as this would be all too happy to leave him to his devices.

        But what may be the biggest surprise of this excursion occurs at his first step inside, and immediately seeing himself face to face with the owner. Given the choice of aesthetics, Suo wasn’t expecting a tall guy in black manning the store. He looks like someone who would fit in well in the streets — and in his own hometown’s streets, at that.

        Perhaps that’s why Suo is not intimidated at all. He might look like a troublemaker, but Suo’s home is with rowdy individuals and rough-housed ilk. If anything, this is more familiar than anything he has seen in Spirale thus far.

        And there’s one more thing Suo’s instincts tell him — he’s strong. That alone is enough to pique his curiosity more than anything else. Perhaps this visit would be more fruitful than he expected to be.

        A single maroon eye scans over the menu and ah, turns out they do serve tea in here. He points at one of the choices with a single finger. “I’d like a medium serving of your darjeeling, please.”

@punisheye

[teahees]

        "Ah, these?" He motions so casually towards the red jade of his earrings, tassels swaying along to the movement of his head. "They are talismans passed down through generations of my family, to help keep the malevolent forces at bay."

        The spirit being the ancient being hiding in his right eye, of course! It's powerful enough that an eyepatch wouldn't be enough to form a spiritual barrier around it, so clearly it required the help of other artifacts.

        "So I'm afraid I can't just lend them away. But I can help you search for a similar looking set, if you'd like."

@sparklingsplendor

[teahees]

Like this for a short starter! Help this poor helpless kid get used to his new surroundings?

[ostentumm]

@teahees

"Yeah, so there's two places you can go to get some help if you needed," he says with a shrug. "There's that lionheart place and then a new agency thingy that opened up, too." He's been wanting to check the place out, but alas he didn't want to do paperwork! He'll have to wait until he turns 18!

"Anyway, if you're houses in the townhouse, we are neighbors! I'm Oliver Etidae by the way!"

[teahees]

        Ah, to think he's been approached by someone so eager to help him out. Lucky.

        "It does happen that my residence is also in that area, so looks like we'd be seeing each other often."

        He casually nods along, taking note of each place Oliver is taking him. Not that he feels like he would go there that often - Suo wants to enjoy his youth, not pick up a boring job. But it could still be useful in the future.

        "Nice to meet you, Oliver-kun. You can call me Tom Cruise."

        He says it so naturally too, wide smile and all.
