YUKCRI ~ indie & private yukari takeba from persona 3 - est. 2/12/2024 - as scrawled by Thaly (41/NB/EST). Heavily based on Persona 3/FES and gradually incorporating Reload as I go along. Spoilers are no issue for me, though I will be mindful of others who mind them as best as I can.
PSD used is FRIVOLITY by @jessource. Graphics are all by me. I use official Atlus art/screenshots as well as screengrabs from @capsource and plain icons from @ochazos. As more resources become available, I will credit them accordingly.
ONE. This one should be obvious, but I’m gonna say it anyway–as a private and selective account, I’m gonna be choosy as to who I RP with/follow/etc. A lot of what killed the enjoyment on my previous accounts was feeling pressured to be welcoming to people I really wasn’t all that enthused about writing with. That’s not happening here. Sorry if your feelings are hurt if I’m not interested or follow back, but ultimately? There are thousands of RPers in Tumblr’s sea. Don’t get hung up over one not being interested. On the other hand, if I follow you, I want to RP. Feel free to approach me.
TWO. The other obvious rule is that I have zero interest in getting involved in stupid OOC drama. If it’s plagiarism or something that’s actually major, then go for it. If you’re stirring up shit because someone didn’t word their apology just right or bullying someone for picking up the same muse as you, though… expect to be dropped with the quickness. Ain’t nobody got time for that, least of all me.
THREE. Don’t steal my headcanons. Period. I will publicly drag your ass for filth if you do. If you wouldn't steal my art, why would you steal my writing/ideas?
FOUR. Hate anons will be shot on sight. If you can't own your words, don't waste my time with them.
FIVE. Personals, don’t reblog my RPs/Asks/Promos/Edits. Period. I won’t play nice on this since it makes me super uncomfortable. I will publicly shame anyone that does this.
SIX. While this is a multi-ship account, I ship on chemistry. Forcing a ship on me is another of those things that I won’t tolerate, though I am kind of a massive shipping whore–so if you make me feel like it’s being forced, then you’re doing something majorly wrong.
SEVEN. While the mun is ancient in internet years, Yukari is a minor. As such, there will be no sexual content on here period. The mature themes present in the Persona games will be featured, and I will tag things on request.
EIGHT. I am totally cool with OCs. Actually, I'll go one step further in reminding people that canons are just OCs that other people came up with that became popular. I don't have time for that kind of elitism, or really any elitism period.
oh heart of ice and mind of gold, what am I to do with you? you are only good in small amounts, bittersweet fledgling, you are hard for most to swallow. your spirit is strong, your wit is potent, your biting essence drives even the most daring away. but why are you hiding your sweetness? I know within you, you are soft, but humanity has made you bitter. you mask your pain and sorrow with spite and sensibility. you say you do not care about trivial things, but don't you? sweetheart relax. you can let down your drawbridge, the waters are not poisoned. I know you have looked monsters in between the eyes and scoffed at them, but please, relax. you think your armor protects you but it is smothering you slowly. little owlet, when will you learn, words can only get you so far? feelings are what makes this world pulse. do not suppress your feelings. your heart can still thaw my dear. trust.
━━ ❝ 𝐁𝐚𝐛𝐞..𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐤𝐚𝐲? ❞ Then again, her response was something to expect even if she’s seen a lot in her life up until now. There was still so much weird a person could take before they’re driven to the brink of speechlessness. “I wanted t’ tell ya but eh, I figured I’d start very slow and cover the bases of what I’ve been through first. But if anythin’ if seein’ is believing.” Then Yusuke slowly strips away both his jacket and shirt, then just like that black tattoos appear across his body, over his chest, abs, arms, and slightly across both his cheeks. He’s even grown some fangs. “I’m guessin’ this is why the dark hour doesn’t really affect me..but I’m not human..not anymore. Also, if you lay your head on my chest…you’ll notice there’s no heartbeat either.”
Was it any wonder that the Lovers could only manage a single syllable before she just--stared all the harder at her boyfriend? Even the sight of him shirtless didn't shake her out of her stunned state, not when those black tattoos were so quick to reveal themselves. And then there's fangs and apparently no heartbeat and--and--and--
Okay, Yukari. Deep breath.
And she took one--slow inhale, hold for a moment, slow exhale--and then another, and then another, until the thought wasn't so overwhelming anymore. Considering all the things she's seen, was someone being a for-really-real demon that much of a stretch? Taking a step forward, calloused and slender fingers settled over his chest where his heart would be.
"...I know you wanna go further in our relationship, but you didn't need to sell your soul or whatever to do it." A wry joke, joined by a faint smile. She was starting to cope.
"Oh my goshh, those accessories are to DIE for." the bubbly blonde exclaimed, azure gaze flitting from the items of interest to the girl's pretty face.
"Is it okay to ask where you got them??! It's hard finding things that stylish around here"
"Mm?" The enthusiastic praise jerked Yukari's mind out of its tired wandering--ugh, she'd kill for a full night's sleep!--and while it took a second or two for Minako's words to sink in?
"Oh, thanks!" Her smile was genuine and immediate, slender fingers rising to gently rest upon her choker. Is that what the blond was talking about? Her smile wavered just a little. "The choker was a giflt, so I'm sorry--I don't know which direction to point you. Maybe you could try Be Blue V? I've seen tons of cute stuff there!"
