@thuganomxcs :

"I'll admit it's been tougher tellin' ya no ever since ya become my girl..but a costume party?? Hell no..there isn't anything you could do OR say that'd convince me t' match costumes with ya. Don't even TRY the puppy eyes."

Botan purses her lips, hands on her hips. "What's wrong with a costume party? Isn't that how humans celebrate? Everyone has fun and dresses up," she sticks her tongue out. So no puppy eyes then? Hmph. She does look disappointed though, playing with her hair. "I mean, it's not like I'm trying to force you, I just thought it might be fun. I didn't realize you would be so opposed to it. I guess I just got excited. But if you don't want to then you can stay home, I guess," not that she's really looking to force him into doing something he's not comfortable with. She turns her back to him. "I had a few really cute costume ideas for myself. I was going to ask if you wanted to help me pick something out too. There's a shop that opened up near by and you can try things on there. I thought it might be a fun date. Oh well, I'll ask someone else to go with me."

@askrossiel : 🥪 (hope Botan likes honeycakes!) 🥪 Set a plate/tray/bowl of food down for my muse Nonverbal Prompts

Botan is always available for taste testing. The small cakes Rossiel sets before her smell amazing, golden and warm. Botan thanks her happily, bowing her head in thanks before taking a bite. Ah, it's sweet! Botan wriggles excitedly in her seat before turning back to Rossiel when her mouth is empty.

"These are wonderful! It's so comforting, i bet these would be perfect on a rainy day. You're quite the talented baker," she chirps.

When Yusuke pulls her close, Botan melts a little. She closes her eyes, burying her face against his shoulder with her arms wrapping around to hug him. The hand in her hair helps to calm her. She feels safe here, like nothing else can touch them. She would have expected him to react with anger but this is nice. He tries to make her laugh and a smile breaks through.

She pulls back a little to look at him, taking a minute to wipe her sleeves across her eyes. She's still in her work kimono, having not even bothered to change before coming over.

"If you put on too much even I won't be able to be near you," she jests weakly in return. "It's-- it's not that bad. It's just... Reikai's going through a lot of changes since Koenma took over, and not everyone is happy about it. I mean, there haven't been any changes in over a thousand years, even for a spirit that's a long time. Reikai has always been isolated from the other realms and for a long time, I guess the spirits all thought themselves superior to the other species. I know opinions won't change over night and maybe I was just too optimistic but.. I don't understand. You all worked so hard on our behalf, it's not fair that they can't see that. If they were only talking about me, it wouldn't be a problem. But I don't like when people talk poorly about you. You deserve better."

He remembered a conversation with his mother, this situation really does coincide with what she had said. ‘Sometimes a woman doesn’t want the big strong man to go out 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮. Sometimes a woman just wants to be heard, understood and held.’ Those words continue to echo through his mind, this was really the opposite of what Yusuke would have normally done. There were people in Reikai that hurt her and he wanted to go RIGHT NOW and settle this.

BUT, instead, Yusuke remained at her side, he took one step closer before wrapping his arms around her and pulling her own frame against his very own. One hand strokes her hair rather gently. 

❝   𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐝𝐮𝐦𝐛 𝐭' 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥.   ❞ Something he knows she’d tell him, in fact she’s the one that’s always encouraged him to be true to his feelings. “I just didn’t know it was that rough for ya upstairs..mingling with a demon and everythin’. Tell ‘em the next time I’m with you I’ll wear a little extra cologne.”

@thuganomxcs : It'd big boss "Botan, darling don't get.me wrong you ate beautiful but you're the boss' girl now so maybe it's about time I takes care of yaz." He hands her a large wad of yen. "Buy anything you want doll, go nuts. Capische?"

Alright, so trying on costumes was going... questionably. He's such a pest but he's not getting out of it by being obnoxious. She's put up with way worse from him. Besides, two can play that game.

Her annoyed expression changes quick and she smiles sweetly. She takes the money, pretends to count it and then pockets it -- she'll give it back later. "Really? I can buy aaanything I want?" she bats her lashes, sitting down next to him, leaning in close. "Even pink paint for the walls? And cute pillows for the couch? That would make me sooo happy, Boss~"

@thuganomxcs : "Oh right, before I leave for work." He leans down to her and gently presses his lips against her own. "If I get ghosts things t' handle then i'll give ya a call."

This is a good way to start the day, she's found. She returns the kiss, rolling her eyes with a smile. "Try not to have 'ghost things' that need to be handled, if you can. But I'll come rescue you if you really need it," she steals another kiss. "Have a good day, love you."

[deathblossomed]

Botan laughs delightedly, treading close to him. She really does feel best in the water, it's a natural experience for her. She'd spend countless running out to the river's edge as a child. The alcohol buzzing through her system only boosted.

"Hmm, good to know you won't be drowned that easily. Don't even know what you'd do with those numbers," she remarks, eyes narrowed playfully at him. She scrunches up her face in play-anger. "Stupid, don't swim in lava! You won't have a body to put your soul back into. Just a burnt ghost. If I ever fly into a volcano, you better stay home!"

His eyes were opened wide feeling her dunk him underwater for the moment. It took him away before coming back up and facing her with a grin on his face before a light chuckle left his lips after he splashed her once more.  ❝   𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭.   ❞   Genkai really did took great care of this place, in fact he would have loved to know how she even gotten this much land in the first place..but at the very least this place was a haven for lost yokai.

“Nah, only the ones that make me work for those measurements because anything that just lead me t’ swim with them are just plannin’ on drownin’ me.” OH he’s heard about sirens..or more so he’s seen them in movies without really having meeting one at all in the entirety of his career. “Besides I’ve known ya for awhile, I’d follow ya into Lava if I gotta.”

Send my character a ► and a command. They must obey.

Alright, so hand her a bat and she'll get a good swing off the nearest opponent. And maybe she's got a good slap. But those are just tools of the trade, especially when your job includes reining in Ningenkai's local punk. She's not sure how far those skill would get her in a crime syndicate but they're good for self defense.

She listens intently, trying not too think too hard about it. There were some unsaid implications to words like 'gone' and 'get rid of' but his intentions were good. She understood the ugliness that came with the darker sides of humanity and the sacrifices made to better the world. That doesn't mean Botan doesn't sometimes wish she could keep Yusuke from that world. But he was a good person, she knew that.

"Hmm, I do remember. But now I can't imagine why anyone would be afraid of you. Turns out the big bad wolf isn't scary after all," she jokes, laughing lightly. Sure, she knew about the conceptions people held about him, he wore warning signs like armor. But all she could see was his warmth and kindness. "I'm glad you're not tied to them anymore. I understand why you did it, but I wish you didn't feel the need to take on such dangerous responsibilities on your own. So if you ever get into trouble like that again, you'll tell me, right?"

━━   ❝   𝐅𝐮𝐧 𝐭' 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞.   ❞  He was surprised to feel her hand atop his own..but left it there for the moment. To feel her holding his own hands so gently, so lovingly..he liked it. “Not a fighter huh? Tell that t’ my bruises a few years ago.” Not to mention he’s sure a few zombies and possessed humans would care to debunk her little claim. 

“Nah, I only joined t’ get rid of them from the inside. Managed to avoid a turf war and everything. I figured if I did it publicly I’d just start somethin’ that’d hurt so many more people.” So for once..or one of those rare moments he’s actually thought of a plan before going in guns blazing. “They’re all gone, least most of ‘em. But they weren’t all bad, there were a few good apples in the basket, some of them manipulated into joinin’ ‘em. I made sure they were all out of the country by the time I took the family down, by now I hope they’re living their honest life as they promised.” His eyes then went towards the ceiling.

He absolutely abhors worrying over others but in this case..most of them were even younger than him, with so much potential to change the world positively. “Remember the old days where the yakuza was nothin’ but a ghost story because people were basically afraid of me?” Ahhh the good ol’ days when his name carried weight and inspired fear. Now when people hear ‘Urameshi’ they just pour their hearts out hoping Yusuke would aid them in some way.

Botan's never one to be deterred by a little weather. Well, almost never. But a little rain never hurt anyone. She'd checked the forecast before heading out, pulling on a pair of black boots and her favorite pink rain jacket before making the walk down to the river.

The Furukawa River Boat was open six days a week, weather permitting, always allowing at least one day a week to be spent on maintenance and cleaning. And out of all the chores that occupied her time, she minded this the least. She'd assured her parents she could handle it herself before leaving the house that morning. After all, the rain made cleaning a little easier.

With her, she hauled her usual stock of supplies, a mop and bucket, sponges, soaps and the like. If she started outside, she could dry off in the boat house while she handled the rest. The chill in the air meant they had to start preparing for the winter months, loathe as she was to let go of the warmer days of early autumn.

With everything set out, she pulled her hair into a loose bun and set to work. The boat was decent size with a covered area in the center and a few small benches for seating. When it was running, she'd stand at the bow with a long oar, guiding their guests downriver, through the shade of the forest's canopy.

Botan set out her mop and bucket and got to work. At least with the rainfall, she wouldn't have to worry about rinsing anything. She made quick work of the deck, moving on to cleaning the benches. Humming quietly to herself, she paused briefly to glance around, attention pulled upward.

It wasn't unusual to have visitors, even on their off days, people on nature hikes or visiting the near by shrine. She was the hardly the only one comfortable out in the rain. And when she glanced further up the path, she spotted a young woman walking toward her, her sight naturally drawn there.

Tipping her head curiously, she watched the stranger approach, something simmering in the back of her mind. Maybe it was just because she'd been daydreaming or that the rain sometimes made her a bit sleepy, but it was like being drawn toward a light, flickering in the darkness. Oh no, no, she's just being silly, maybe it's just her sun-bright outfit.

Botan smiles, setting aside her mop when the stranger comes closer to the boat. Now that she's closer, she can get a better look. Ah, her eyes are pretty...

"You'd be surprised! But I guess a little rain never hurt anyone. Certainly makes cleaning easy," she chirps with a bright smile. "Ah, but if you're looking for a tour, I'm afraid we're closed for today. But we'll be back open tomorrow morning!"

[ Closed Starter for @deathblossomed ]

It was a gray, rainy, early autumn day. The heat of summer had largely passed while the chill of winter had yet to truly bite. The rainfall was slow and steady, big droplets rhythmically meeting the earth, water, and everything else below. Even the still-verdant foliage was muted to a drabber shade, to say nothing of the river by the boat docks.

As a result, it was probably impossible to miss the woman who came wandering by, even as she approached from a distance. First there was her traditional wagasa umbrella, a bright yellow ornamented with various white, gold, and orange designs featuring little splashes of red and green. Beneath it, she wore modern clothes and was dressed at least somewhat appropriately for the season, wearing a similarly bright yellow jacket, gray mock neck sweater, orange short skirt, black leggings, and... combat boots?

She was also taller than usual, around the same height as Botan herself, although it was probably her skin that drew the eye after those radiant yellows: it seemed very tan and rich. Everything about her looked warm.

That was when the real oddities would begin to creep in, if Botan cared to look as she drew nearer. Her hair—initially appearing solid black, caught the diffuse light strangely as she moved, seeming to shift from dark red to deep blue and back again. Her vibe was also just... odd?

It was perhaps like... watching a big cat slink along the shoreline walkway? Something was just slightly off, but she seemed real enough?

Yurie wasn't unaware of her possible observer either. That blue hair merrily bobbing this way and that as the woman dutifully worked on that riverboat in this kind of weather was hard not to notice. It was as she drew closer that she noticed that yes, she was being deliberately looked at rather than merely being in line of sight. That had her attention, because it shouldn't be the case—normally wouldn't be the case. She stopped at the nearer mooring line, turning fully to face the woman on the boat.

It was at that point that a truth became undeniable: set within the generally Japanese look of her facial features, her eyes were a rich sunglow yellow almost like that of the wagasa and jacket. It was an inhuman shade, and once again suggested nothing quite so much as a big cat!

"Wow, aren't you working hard?" she said in cheery Japanese. It didn't sound weird at all? "Lotta business in this weather?"

@scarlxtleaves :

"You two what?! Oh no, it's clear that I need to buy you a pair of glasses because you've got to be blind choosing Urameshi over..well anyone else." Granted it was really just..jokes at this point. In his heart he could not have been anymore happier for his friends even if he WAS jealous that Yusuke got to work so quick whilst he was still tending the field with Yukina.

Botan can't help but laugh. ( Well, at least he doesn't think she's pregnant anymore ) "Maybe you're right," she jests, eyes sparking mischievously. "After all, you did call dibs on me first, didn't you?" She's not about to let him forget about his 'spontaneous marriage proposal' phase. Her smile soften then. "I can't say I was expecting this outcome but... I'm happy. And I hope he is too."
