any lasting injuries from combat ?

nope, not particularly. he regenerates too fast for many distinguishable marks to be left behind, but has suffered a great deal of injuries whilst engaged in combat.

    since i can’t be bothered editing more  &  making a fancy promo, could you please LIKE / REBLOG if you’d be interested in interacting with an apathetic, overpowered  “ villain ”  who may be dead in canon  …  but not in my heart. skilled assassin,  &  white grey haired tragedy. messenger of heaven,  OBORO.  from animanga gintama, which you’ve probably been meaning to watch / read for some years now. penned by an idiot called ven. ♡

    i, too, look sleep deprived  &  on the brink of death almost all of the time.

[sougu]

“Just like you, I used to be empty. Once I lost everything and learned how terrifying that could be, I kept living an empty life, with no meaning or name of any kind. But the ones who gave meaning to the empty me once more, were the people who’d become a part of me at some point, your sister and everyone else.”

✩ ncwworld:

     interesting, his query elicits an amiable response from the younger male. as a detective there is a sense of curiosity, a sense of finding and acquiring answers, facts. so, he had to ask ‘ lucky huh? how so? ‘ he has a suspicion the other may have been surprised, hinting that perhaps his outcome was not as he had anticipated, thus provoking Light to wonder how the male’s answer would have been if luck did not present itself. Or perhaps this was Light being skeptical of luck’s existence. what if it was coincidence?   

    his expression remains the same;  indiscernible,  &  masked with content. in all fairness, kamui is glad. it isn’t very often that an earthling garners his attention. particularly not for quite  THIS  long. still, how is he to explain that sort of thing in a way that this person can understand ?  kamui quite doubts that he’d take kindly to the knowledge  he is most only interested in blood  &  carnage. perhaps he should practice caution.  “ —— because  TODAY,  i met you. you are quite unlike most other ordinary people. ”  he decides,  ( not-so subtly )  taunting:  “ tell me. am i wrong ? ”

Blood Thirst

[yatofist]

@mawnstxr || x

    it isn’t beauty that warrants kamui’s attention, but more-so  ——  the peculiar air about this man. perhaps that’s just the thing;  this person doesn’t seem like a  MAN  at all.   (  ...  albeit, he certainly does look human )   having approached and confronted many races  &  species over the years, he’s quite particular about his beliefs. trusts when his instinct tells him something;  pre-empts and prevents  POTENTIAL  dangers. but perhaps ...

    more  IMPORTANT  than that;  he can distinguish between the ordinary  &  the unique. his introspective gaze dissipates when the stranger offers for him to move closer, and dark lashes flutter;  eyes close, the corners to his lips curving upward with apparent bemusement.  ‘does he think i’m afraid ?’  kamui  MUSES,  one finger tapping idly against umbrella’s handle.  “ how kind. ”  head tilts, some.  “ but you’re really so sure that’s a good idea ? ”

kamui, trying to understand gintoki:

[yatofist]

FULL NAME.   kamui. OTHER NAMES.   baka aniki  ( stupid brother ),  space criminal  &  admiral nincompoop. AGE.   18 years ;  maybe a little older later into canon. GENDER.   male. SEXUALITY.   greysexual / romantic, but relatively indifferent to gender. ORIGIN.   the planet ‘rakuyou.’ CURRENT LOCATION.  verse dependent;  space, ordinarily. NATIONALITY.   rakuyou ... an ... ?? ETHNICITY.   yato. SPOKEN LANGUAGES.  predominantly  ( presumably )  japanese. i imagine he’s quite adaptable to languages, seeing as he travels the universe  &  manages to speak with most others without issues. RELIGION.   indifferent. HEIGHT.    5′7″. BODY TYPE.   slender  &  toned;  muscles are very strong, but not large. EYES :   vibrant // deep blue, often closed when he smiles. TATTOOS.   no tattoos. PIERCINGS.   none. SCARS.   a few subtle ones are scattered across his body, but he regenerates far too fast for most to linger. EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND.  he was schooled by his mother primarily,  &  secondarily his father;  though he left when kamui was very young. housen was his mentor upon his leaving home, but most only taught him battle tactics. most else he learnt himself, or via abuto on his journeys. SOCIAL MEDIA.  probably made them  &  never used them ?? SMOKING.  nope. DRINKING.   not often, but it’s hard for him to get drunk anyway. DRUGS.   none. ATHLETICS.  probably trains sometimes,  &  his battle technique is quite acrobatic. HOBBIES.   fighting formidable opponents  ( to the death ),  eating, sleeping, pestering abuto probably, observing those with great strength, and travelling space. VIRGIN.    yup. more important things to do. FAVORITE DRINK.  varieties of tea,  &  maybe sweet drinks ?  coffee, but only with sugar. FAVORITE FOOD.   most anything. he quite likes traditional japanese dishes, but also likes to indulge in baked goods. kamui will take what he can get, and really isn’t rather picky. FAVORITE MUSIC.   mm, i think he’d be surprisingly fond of more relaxing  &  traditional music ?  though i can see him getting into pop or rock selectively. kamui doesn’t often consciously think to play music. CLOTHING STYLE.   his traditional yato ensemble;  a dark robe and grey pants, based on that which is commonly used in chinese martial arts. he also wears a light robe most of the time, presumably for greater protection from the sunlight. kamui cares little about fashion,  &  more-so about practicality. UNDERWEAR TYPE.  boxer briefs, probably.

The enemy isn’t always right  in front of your eyes.

    other people:  interested in romance  &  intimate relationships.     kamui:  interested in bloodshed, massacres of entire warrior races  &  food.

"How many more times do I have to tell you?"

° • ? question sentence starters || @heavenspat

    “ no matter how many times  …  ”  his fingers furl,  &  clench into tight, bloody fists, trembling;  expressing an aggravating vulnerability, when kamui denies the sole belief he is capable of falling  VICTIM  to any such lack of strength. it’s infuriating, almost  ——  that at long last he can indulge in a worthwhile battle  ( … against the one man who had intrigued him most, perhaps )  and yet … he feels scant satisfaction. what  IS  it that he is feeling ?

    an itching;  nagging, beneath the skin. anger, lack of understanding  (  …  denial )  deep in his bones, nestled in his rib cage  ——  &  woven into his veins. if i couldn’t protect her, then what makes  YOU  think that you’re so capable ?  no matter how strong, it is impossible to protect everything;  everyone that you love. so then why does he look so certain ?  so infuriatingly  ADAMANT  that fighting for the sake of protecting is worth risking his life.

    “ … it makes  NO DIFFERENCE.  ”  he forces himself upright, off of his haunches. if the blood loss and fatal injuries don’t drive him mad, those eyes will;  the window to the soul.  (  ——  so that’s what the soul of a samurai looks like ? )  he’s no more than an  IDIOT  with crimson-stained hands. kamui considers;  that would make two of them. no, they’re different. he’s …  “ you can’t even kill her idiot brother. how do you plan to protect her  !? ”
