#{ Muse: Shigure }

[sweptawxy]

Corrin's here to offer a shoulder for Shigure to lean against, considering their own issue with Anankos.

"Uncle-" Shigure looked panicked, he was going to lose his Mother again- or so it seemed. The flashbacks were already coming back, having to witness her vanish in a moment, and being unable to stop it. He hated this curse. The teenager grabbed onto Corrin, his breathing now hard and fast as the panic attack took over. "I can't.. I don't want to lose her..." Was he begging for the older adult to do something? Shigure wasn't really sure.

[aparticularbandit]

man, for all that junko is the ultimate despair, akito's got the corner on depression voice. like every word out of akito's mouth is uniquely tooled to get under someone's skin and reinforce all of the horrible things they think about themselves, actually is every horrible thing they think about themselves being said by akito, who they cannot NOT listen to.

[musedbyalli]

Continued from: "Hmmm..." Giving a curious tilt of her head, the blonde Sohma gives a bit of a judgmental look in her big blue eyes. "That doesn't sound very nice to prank your editor friend like that, Shigure-san."

@partum-memoriae

"I guess it wasn't." Of course, Shigure had known that pretty shortly after doing it and had a feeling prior to the prank that it wasn't the best thing to do to his editor. He simply hadn't expected the judgmental look from one of his younger cousins. "I should probably apologize to her." Or maybe he'd just give her the manuscript on time for once - of course that would probably cause her to be suspicious of his intentions too.

[robins-s0ngbird]

Hello, I'm robins-s0ngbird, but call me Serenia/Iris! I go by both~

You most likely recognize the name 'Serenia' from somewhere~ It's most likely from my roleplay blog @intergalactic-singer (which is technically my main according to tumblr, but this will act as my main!) for Robin from Honkai Star Rail!

All follows and likes will come from the Robin account, simply because I had 0 idea what I was doing when I made the account..

I'm a Hoyoverse girl, mostly playing Honkai Star Rail, Honkai Impact 3rd, and the occasional Genshin Impact when my friends bother me to play with them. I also play Wuthering Waves, Cooke Run Kingdom, Cookie Run Ovenbreak, Zenless Zone Zero, and Brawl Stars!

Even with my somewhat busy life, I tend to learn all the lore in each game I play~ I also currently run 15 RP blogs across 4 fandoms, but they'll soon increase with my new obsessions.

List of roleplay blogs are here!

I mostly write small stories or my OC lore with my mutuals, which we often tie their lore together. I usually write whenever I'm bored, or someone asks me to write them something. I also send mutuals a lot of random stuff, from music to art~

My current obsession is Aventurine and Robin (plus their boyfriends!) from Honkai Star Rail (as you could probably tell from my username and graphics-) I also happen to have Robin as my main muse, but thats also not the point-

（。＾▽＾） (robins-s0ngbird.carrd.co)

Honkai Star Rail;

I fell in love with this game, simply because I saw that it was releasing, and I needed a new game. I never knew that it'd become my main game and fandom I'd be in. I loved the character designs, the lore, and the writing behind it all. I even appreciate the Honkai Impact references since I started playing that too~!

I play on NA, and my uid is 601916942 :>

(also, beware of my Aventurine. just saying.)

Current Main: Aventurine, with a bit of Dr Ratio and Welt on the side~

Current Main Team: Dr. Ratio, Silver Wolf, Aventurine, Lynx

My Favorite Characters: Aventurine, Robin + Sunday, Boothill, Silver Wolf, Dan Heng/Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae, Welt

Honkai Impact 3rd;

I decided to play this game because, I simply went 'I play Star Rail. I should play this too because its a honkai game!' and suddenly I love this game so much. I fell in love with the characters, the buildup, the worldbuilding, everything.

I still play on the American server, with my UID being 107786863 :3

[kresnikcest]

@lastthroes and i tried ranking tales characters based on how much of a sibcon they are

fractured ludger needs a restraining order

michael and muse would be so normal if it weren't for mikleo's entire existence

harold and karell 🤝 asbel and hubert -> you can only tell we're related bc of our eye colour

(ofc kresniks still win for looking less related than the seraphim who don't even have the concept of family ties)

shigure could also go under "no" since rokurou is a lot more proactive in the whole fratricide thing than he is...

sormik are schrodinger's siblings bc otherwise i would have to exclude veigue/claire and where's the fun in that

senel/shirley are just like that though

[nuri148]

Random Musings: Fruits Basket

OK I'm like just past the middle of the 2nd season.

Kyo and Yuki are sexy and all but Haru is sex on legs omg those forearms are aphrodisiac af.

Shigure is hot but dodgy af.

Momiji is not just adorable but also has more balls than all the other Sohma combined, he's so far the only one who's stood up to Akito.

Speaking of Akito, I fucking hate that bitch.

And Momiji's mum. How can she reject that ray of sunshine?! (full disclosure: I'm a rabbit in the Chinese zodiac so I may be biased)

Hana & Uo are the GOAT. Megumi too.

Someone pls kill Ayame, Kagura, and the guy from the student council they're just so fucking annoying.

Kureno has major Moblit (AoT) vibes.

I'm open to discussion but no spoilers pls! 😊

[queenharumiura]

Send me a KHR ship pairing and i'll tell you: Yamamoto x Squaletta

[My KHR ship game] ||Accepting|| @squaletta Reminder: As with the last one, take my thoughts with a grain of salt because I can only work based off what I know of Squaletta and I don’t know everything about her. In other words forgive any and all inaccuracies.

Hate it |Am Neutral to it|Ship it| love it! |

Hmm… so you’ve asked for Squaletta before so I can probably recycle some bits as the character thoughts for some parts will remain the same. So, if some parts sound familiar… there is a reason for it lol. Since answering the last one, I don’t think I received any new information I didn’t have before, and I don’t believe you’ve written out some of the information that I know in a bio page yet, so I won’t speak too in depth on some things.

Those disclaimers finished, let’s move on.

I think I told you before that I’m pretty neutral to the ship in general though moving towards slight dislike in regards to Squalo and Yamamoto. I suppose I just strongly bias over other ships instead with Yamamoto so Squalo x Yamamoto get pushed down. (For reference, I am a biased queen and I love Gokudera and Yamamoto, Haru and Yamamoto, and Hibari and Yamamoto. Can you tell I bias over 10th gen?) ANYWAYS. A part of my reservation comes from the age gap. Yamamoto from the start is 14, while Squalo is 22, so that’s like a 8 year gap. It isn’t to say that I’m totally against it because of it, but I would require certain circumstances to be okay with it, like a ship only happening in the adult years for one- which would already be the case since you write TYL verses.

I know people IRL with larger age gaps and they’ve met later in life, so an age gap of 8- though a bit difficult to work with at times because of the maturity differences there can be, I’m not against it. That’s just the explanation for why I’m on the fence with the ship in general.

Now to ACTUALLY start (for real this time).

To talk about Yamamoto and Squaletta as a ship, one of which is a canon divergent gender bend, it’s hard to say something is truly canon or otherwise. There are various Yamamoto muses that you write with, and so the circumstances of background stories and set up vastly differ how a ship can go and whether or not I’m personally on board with it or not.

Just based off how I personally see Yamamoto and understand him, Yamamoto is the kind of guy who has a lot of trust and respect for those around him, and authority is actually something that means something to him. He puts a lot of respect to those above him or his superiors (such as coaches or teachers). He may act freely and may have a bit of a flippant side to him occasionally, he does really respect people. IF there is a Yamamoto that viewed Squaletta as a teacher, I do not see him forming romantic feelings for the person. HE would not cross those boundaries, and he would only really see them as a teacher and respect that role for what it is. So, in my opinion, if a ship were to happen, he cannot view Squalo/Squaletta as his teacher. Instead, viewing them as a comrade or a fellow more experienced swords(wo)man is fine.

I’ve mentioned it before, but in the case of my Yamamoto, he does not see Squaletta as his teacher. For me, with the way that he is and how strong his convictions are about his faith in his father’s Shigure Souen-Ryu, he will only see his father as his teacher. You can make the case of Reborn during the TYL arc, but I honestly get the vibe that Yamamoto doesn’t see Reborn as his teacher either. First of all, he knows full well that Reborn is Tsuna’s tutor, and he won’t do a thing like ‘stealing’ someone’s teacher. Secondly, Reborn was there to help train Yamamoto and hone his skill since there wasn’t an appropriate person who can help him until Squalo/Squaletta came. Even then, he more likely viewed it as Squalo/Squaletta volunteering their time to help train Yamamoto and instill some of their experience into him to make him stronger.

He wasn’t actively trying to learn everything he could from either of them to then forge their teachings into himself. He was taking in their pointers and advice and adapting it to work with the Shigure Souen-Ryu. The ONLY teacher he will acknowledge for swordsmanship is his father, the one who ‘birthed him’ as a swordsman through teaching him the ways.

I will finish this thought by saying that if anyone disagrees with me, that’s totally okay! This is just how I personally see him and how I personally will characterize my own Yamamoto- is all. If anyone believes that Yamamoto views other tutors as his teachers and respects them as such, all the power to you! I think it makes sense! It just doesn’t work with my characterization is all =w=

Moving on.

How Yamamoto views Squaletta is that she is a strong and independent woman. I’ve mentioned to you before in private that part of the appeal of what makes Squaletta so interesting as a character is her drives, her motivations, and the way she interacts with people. She’s different, and I don’t mean that in the ‘I’m not like the other girls~’ kinda thing. She’s different as a person in general. To be honest, that’s to be expected of Varia-Quality. She’s just built different (I love the built different meme) and that’s what makes her so funny (Yamamoto’s words, not mine). He finds some of her reactions to be funny, and he finds it so fascinating to see how mad she gets at him at times.

You’ve mentioned before: “When he was younger, she admonished him to take swordsmanship seriously because she saw his talent and potential. She tried to help him and still tries to help him. They are not in the position of superior and inferior - teacher and pupil. She may sometimes sound like a teacher because she is more experienced in swordsmanship and is dominant and bosssy, but those are her personality traits. She is very happy to tell him what he is doing wrong. XD” [ß lol yes from discord]

This is something he’ll better understand later in life, but when he was younger, he kind of saw her as a fussy swords senpai who is getting mad at him for having two priorities. Why can’t he like both things? If he’s doing well, what’s the problem if he does it? In canon Squalo even says ‘I know you have the ability to do both, you have the talent for it!’ and I’ll say that I BET that inside his head he thought ‘Then what’s the problem, haha?’ Someone cure him of his idiocy, please. Lol Like I said, he understands it later on in life. She didn’t want his talent to go to waste, and she wanted for him to really hone his skill because he clearly had the talent for it.

People just don’t like to see wasted talent, especially if they too had talent. Does this mean he’ll regret all the time he spent on baseball? No, it was a part of him and his history. It was a big part of who he is, and he’ll never regret that.

So, I mentioned just moments ago that he felt that Squaletta was like a fussy swords senpai. He has a lot of respect for his upperclassman and such. He has a lot of trust for those he acknowledged, and so that is why he REALLLYYY disliked Xanxus for a long time. He heard/saw the way that Xanxus treated her. To see someone he greatly respects being treated that way does not sit well with him. So, he probably asked about it one day and then she explained that they’re basically friends who trust each other a lot and that’s simply how they operate. They just banter a lot. He’ll then realize: OH! Just like me and Gokudera! [they fight a lot] He’ll be okay with Xanxus after that. Grudges don’t last long with this one.

I do think that he could’ve possibly had a small budding crush on her but literally never realized it. He’s a lil… daft when it comes to introspection, so I really don’t think he would easily realize if he were to have feelings for someone. His focus is usually elsewhere like his swordsmanship or baseball, so he doesn’t usually have the time to even contemplate on his feelings in particular. Not only that, whenever he did have a small baby crush it would’ve been when he was young, and she obviously wouldn’t have any feelings for him then or I’d really start questioning things like—why you looking at a young teen like that? B<

Therefore his small baby crush would’ve been short lived and then he’s simply move on with his life. He spent some time in Italy when Tsu-chan moved there as an exchange program, and then he went back to Japan. In TYL times, he does still primarily stay in Japan, but he does visit Italy quite often. From there, he would’ve have more dealings with Squaletta. Now we’re finally getting to the part that you’re actually curious about, I think. LOL 1500+ words to finally start talking about the actual premise of the ask.

If they were to ship together, they would’ve had to once he was an adult, and probably happen because she started to notice how accomplished he’d become as a swordsman. With all the experiences in battles honing his blade to such a razor sharp point, I think that would be one reason for her to start actually noticing him and not just see him as a fledgling chick who is just ‘playing around’ with his sword. In the TYL timeline, he is fully capable of holding his own, even against the Varia, and that would make him a fun opponent to spar against. Yamamoto’s ability to go from 8D to >B| in a matter of seconds is something wild and for someone who has a bit of a feral element to her, I bet that’s EXCITING.

My gut instinct tells me it’s these small points that has her noticing him and slowly start to come to like him more and more. Over time she starts to realize that she thinks about him more than she should, and find a lot of things about him cool or somewhat cute. His carefree attitude may have irritated her when he was real young, but maybe now it’s a little bit endearing. It’s like gap moe to have him have a carefree and cute side that contrasts the sharp and cold attitude he has when in the midst of battle. The duality of a person is very fun to witness.

Knowing that not many get to see both sides of him (and live to tell the tale) would be a reason for anyone to feel honored and special. Just things like that help some feelings form- is my guess.

Being the strong and independent woman that she is, where she cares about her sense of self, her right to herself, and being in control of what happens to herself, it would be good to have someone who could truly treasure her and treat her with respect. Yamamoto has a casual gentleness to him, and he’s respectful in his own ways. He would never do anything he knows bothers her. He’s more aware than others usually give him credit for. It wouldn’t be hard for him to have noticed that Squaletta normally doesn’t like to be touched by others. Knowing that, he is careful about giving her her space. It’s the small things of consideration to show that he cares to respect her and took the time to notice.

It's commonly noted that she’s a bit of a huntress, and has the instincts of a killer/hunter, so it would make sense for her to also like a man who is capable. Someone who has the ability to fend for themselves adequately is just the bare minimum. It’s super important from a romance perspective because being around a Varia member can mean someone could be in danger. I’m sure people can recognize the flag of the Varia and possibly also the uniform. So being seen around her is like walking around with a target. So Yamamoto being able to protect himself is very important.

If you take some of those things into consideration, it gives the feel of… Squaletta having a preference towards men who not only can treat her well. Like I said in Dino’s thing, I do think that treating her like a woman is also important to her as well. Yes, she’s a swordswoman who should be respected, she’s the vice-commander of the fearsome Varia—but she’s also a woman. Don’t forget that she’s a woman in favor of respecting her for her accomplishments. It is only right to require both. Respect her for her titles and accomplishments, but don’t lose the sense of treating her well as she should. Every person, regardless of how capable they are, should still feel like they are cared for and appreciated. No one wants to be in a relationship where their partner doesn’t make them feel courted. Her love is not easy to come by, so you better actually fight and work hard for it!

Like I said, Yamamoto does have some awareness of things around him. He’s quickly notice things about Squaletta and her actions. He can tell that even if she acts rough or whatever, she doesn’t mean it with ill intent. She only means it either teasingly or out of care. Having someone who can understand you is very important, and the fact that Yamamoto is a pretty easy going guy, it’s also equally as important that she’d be with someone who doesn’t have thin skin. She couldn’t be with someone who gets hurt over every small thing, but they can’t be too thick-skinned either. If they are, then they won’t really understand a lot of the nuances behind her actions. If she’s going out of her way to push past her comfort zone or anything and the other party doesn’t realize it? That’s almost insulting, like you’re taking her good will for granted or not even appreciating it. HOW DARE YOU- is the vibe that I get from her. She has standards and refuses to settle for less.

She more than likely didn’t think she’d ever have a romance considering she cared so much about swords and fighting. She probably didn’t have romance in the brain a lot, so if she’s going to be in an actual romantic relationship, the person had BETTER BE WORTH IT. Therefore, I think Yamamoto having those qualities is a good thing, because she can be assured that he understands her and would be willing to travel through life with her. He won’t die such a pitiful death, and she can trust him to forge a path on his own, but still be close by to her so that if she ever looks for him, he’s right there. She really values independence and self-will, so she wouldn’t impose her way of life on someone. She’d respect him for his goals and aspirations.

Of course, this isn’t to say that she wouldn’t doesn’t care if they are apart. I get the feeling that if Squaletta were to actually fall in love with someone, my gut feeling tells me that she is the kind of person who falls hard in love with her lover. She still loves space and independence, but when with her lover, she enjoys having moments of closeness with them. She loves to feel the heat of the passion of their love, to really prove to her that what they have is real and powerful. It isn’t something that she could ever tire of.

(in the back of my mind, I feel like when she realizes she’s in love and notices that she can actually enjoy soft moments over fighting… is when she can somewhat understand how he felt about baseball and the sword. In those moments, there can exist something that means more to her than a fight)

In that way, Squaletta can learn about the more gentler things in life with Yamamoto. It’s also so important that Yamamoto is an accepting guy. She can feel assured that he won’t ever demean her for being herself. He won’t chastise her for being loud, bossy, snarky, etc. He won’t ever try to change her as he’s accepted her for who she is and he came to love her anyways. That is a really important thing to her is what my instincts tell me.

Like I said before, he finds her amusing at times. I think any time she teases him, it reminds him of how he tends to tease and make jokes a lot to make light of situations. He would secretly wonder to himself if it’s a part of his influence that she’ll tease more often. Even if it’s not true, let him believe it. It makes him happy lol.

To know that she’d allow him to touch her hair (referencing the one meme), it’s really important to him, because it would show him that she really cares for him and trusts him. She is really trusting him and letting herself be more vulnerable around him. It is so easy to just grab someone by the hair and disarm them, so it’s actually really big that she’d let him touch and play with her hair. Not only that she’d allow him to help her address a wound. I understand that that meme was sent during my testing phase so it’s not a canon event, but the fact remains that you sent it. It thereby means that in TYL, Squaletta WOULD trust him enough to be around when she’s injured. For beasts and warriors alike, being injured means you’re more vulnerable and you’re more than likely to be hostile towards anyone—unless you actually trust them.

For Yamamoto, having someone trust him that much is PEAK goodness. It’s like baseball, where teamwork is really important and having trust that your teammates will be there for you. As such, trust, compatible teamwork, and faith in someone is really big factors in if he’ll like someone. Small things like that actually would be the start of him catching FEELINGS TM. It leaves a bit impression on him.

They truly would be a power couple LOL. They can fight and have eachothers back. I can absolutely see the playful banter between them if they’re fighting together and Yamamoto takes out an enemy behind her who was about to slice her—imagine?

‘I knew they were there, I could’ve handled it myself.’

‘I know, but I could’ve handled it quicker, so I did.’

Just the casual air between them built off of trust in each other and their skills is PEAK, and it would SOOO piss off all the enemies like FUCK OFF with your flirting? DIE, ACTUALLY. Alas, they always die to the blade of the power duo. SIGHHHHH (kekek)

Will say that I do think that in a relationship they both do maintain a level of independence. I feel they MUST due to their jobs. She’s in the Varia and he’s a guardian, so that independence they both have is actually a really good thing because then they can still focus on their duties and not slack off. BOTH people could not handle a slacker. Squaletta would probably rather murder someone than date a slacker, and Yamamoto couldn’t really be with someone who doesn’t have drive. It would make him feel a bit stifled.

So the fact that they both can understand that in eachother and be accepting of distance between them is actually a really REALLY good thing about them. When they are together though, Yamamoto is an openly affectionate person and I think she could be too once she falls in love. So, they embody the phrase ‘time and place.’ When on the job, they are serious and dedicated, but when they’re together, they can be soft… they can be calm and enjoy the atmosphere… they can just… be there in the moment and that’s so sweet.

Let’s see… as for some cute ideas… unfortunately I will have to cheat you on this. Any ideas that I put here may be things that I may plan on using in the future for interactions and I don’t like to give out spoilers like that. I tend to think of cute ideas that I want to do in advance and I really look forward to using them—so I don’t want to give out any spoilers.

Sorry! Look forward to things for whenever we do develop a solid (romantic) relationship between them!

Like the tides turning, so does fate. He knew this, being in Askr, so many were brought from different points in time. He's seen parents reunited with their children, himself included, and old enemies resurfacing. But Shifure never imagined seeing Anankos. It made his pulse quicker and his breathing faster. "I should find the others.." and his mother... he just got her back...

TOA Anniversary Munday!

Celebrating TOA and the people who contribute to make our group what it is.

Repost, don't reblog. Only fill in what you feel comfortable sharing!

Happy anniversary, TOA! Here's to many more years spent together.

tagging: you? :0)

Name: lilly!

Pronouns: she / they, big they though!

Birthday (no year): april 4th!

Where are you from? What is your time zone? pst, lmao. gmt-8, i think?

Roleplay experience: roughly like 20 years now? lmao, cringe.

Got any pets? yeah, my little buppy, max. he's a demon.

Favorite time of year: winter!

Some interests and things you like: cooking, baking, rhythm games, sleeping, lmao.

Some funfacts & trivia about you: i'm double-jointed in one hand; i tend to only bake cookies in batches of like 7 dozen or more; i've killed at least like six different succulents this year alone; every so often, i'll think about spider-man and its various iterations and fully forget what i was doing before i started thinking about it.

What non-Fire Emblem games do you play? the more recent persona games, a truly insane number of otomes, i still have not finished yakuza 0, pokemon, dress-up games, lmao,,,,,

Favorite Pokemon type & Pokemon: dragon, dragonite!

How did you get into Fire Emblem? ......... wanted another dating sim real bad and my friend told me to play awakening please do not judge me—

What Fire Emblem games have you played? everything post-awakening, lmao,,,,, except for sov, which continues to elude me in completion for reasons beyond my understanding

First Fire Emblem game: awakening!

Favorite Fire Emblem game: would it be bad if i said none of them—well, okay. technically, i think an awful lot about fates, but i don't necessarily think it's my favorite? ..... but i do think about it a lot.

Any Fire Emblem crushes? nnnnnnot that i can think of?

If you’ve played the following games, who was your first S support? wwww, awakening was chrom ( by accident ), then olivia ( intentionally lmao ); fates was takumi; three houses was claude lel; engage was pandreo, to no one's surprise.

Favorite Fire Emblem class: KINSHI KNIGHT NATION RISE!!!!

If you were a Fire Emblem character, what would be your class? villager, and i would have died four times before you recruit me.

If you were a Three Houses character, what would be your affiliation? golden deer, probably, lmfao.

If you were an Engage character, which Emblem would you Engage with? none, i'm firmly of the belief i'm an ultra npc.

How did you find TOA? chuu! had severe 3h brainrot, and chuu already was in the group and told me it was like full of people who didn't need me to be Online All The Time! it's funny because i ended up not even apping for someone from 3h either, lmao.

Current TOA muses: pandreo!

Who was your first TOA muse? If you don’t have them anymore, could you see yourself picking them up again? cynthia, my silly little horse girl, lmao. i always think about picking her up, but it's always a debate of if i've done enough on her or not. easily my favorite character to pick up and start running with, though.

Have you had any other TOA muses? shigure, lon'qu, CONSTANCE VON NUVELLE, m!byleth, shiro, kiragi,,,,, i think that's it, actually? i don't remember any of my other ones, oopsie, lmao.

Do you think you have a type of character you gravitate towards? i tend to generally write characters in my wheelhouse, though i think i have deviations now and again lmao. like, who would think i'd write shigure, right? but, mostly cheerful characters, i think. mood-makers, the kind of people who would set a scene, but also be enough of a backseat player to the driving force where any protagonist or antagonist would take up the reins more comfortably? i think they tend to get written off as genki or filler characters, so i like kind of prodding at their insecurities and seeing what makes them tick instead.

What do you believe you enjoy writing the most? lmao, lbr i'm made for the clown show. nonsensical moments, increasingly strange meet and greets? but, i like doing big establishing moments that suspend what you know about my characters at face value to explore what's deeper in there. i'll slowburn friendship, idgaf; that's my shit.

Favorite TOA-related memory: lel, team justice is still a highlight in my memory from l&k, but i also remember this very specific combat sequence i wrote with rai in the first major lore event with felix and cynthia that was sick as hell to do! ....... also, probably every piemageddon. it is funny seeing even the serious characters fear for their lives / get uber maniacal in a ridiculous situation.

Got any delusions that didn’t see the light of day in TOA that you’d like to share? do not look behind the curtain, lmao.

Continued from:  She had been sitting on the steps alone when she heard Shigure's voice. Slowly she lifted her head and it was clear she looked surprised.. She hadn't expected anyone to come out this far but then she sighed some and leaned back against her hands as she gazed up into the sky. "I'm just.. thinking." She spoke softly. A million thoughts.. the past she escaped from.. her present.. how things are now.. how things were.. if there was any way to break their curse.. Her eyes closed for a few minutes before she put on a smile. It didn't matter. She decided to change the subject off of her. "The real question is why are you out this way? Are you avoiding work? When your editor kills you I'm going to help her hide your body you know." She joked.

@lachrymosestorm

“Ah...”  It was always easier to think alone and in some place peaceful like this.  A part of him missed the quiet that he had before letting those teens stay in his home.  At the same time though, he knew he’d miss the noise when they’d leave.  

While a part of Shigure was tempted to ask what she had been thinking about, he could tell that she didn’t want to discuss it.  "Me?”  He didn’t have much motivation for being out actually, besides wanting to clear his mind.  Was it that his conscience was starting to get to him?  He had heard about what happened to Rin and had a feeling that Tohru was going to be Akito’s next target.  If so, it was his fault for dragging her into this mess.  Still, the dog couldn’t shove away the feeling that she could help break that curse, at least when it came to Yuki and Kyo.

None of that came out though when he answered her.  “Of course~  I can’t simply give her a completed manuscript when she expects it.  I don’t think she’d be able to handle the shock of that, do you?”

😖 - Does your muse have any embarrassing moments that they still think about? Do they laugh at them, or do they haunt them? ; Yuki!

Miscellaneous Symbol Headcanons. - Accepting ☾

oh, for sure. i think there was definitely a pretty big transition when yuki first moved in with shigure and was able to start socializing with others outside of the family more. there were probably more than a few little social blunders he made when he first started at school, like missteps he didn't realize may have come off as rude. just little things. he holds himself to waaay too high of a standard when it comes to his conduct, so it doesn't have to be anything big.

of course, there are also the moments that we see in canon. yuki not realizing for quite a while what hatsuharu did to help him out, trying and failing to connect with kyo when they were younger, probably some of his interactions with tohru too. his perfectionism leads him to view these as terrible faults for the longest time, because he's not really allowed to be human. he's supposed to be perfect. he's got a fan club, he's on the student council, he's the rat. and a big part of his arc is starting to accept the faults that he has, including the embarrassing moments they may lead to. he's not perfect, nor has he ever been. i think that, by the end, he can laugh at himself quite a bit more than he could at the start, and that tohru played a big part in that for him.
