@honorisen​​ from HERE!

Sera wanted to say no. Polishing the oversized sword he carried should’ve been easy; she could do one side and then... What? If it’d been leaning against any other wall or at any other angle, she might’ve been able to squeeze herself behind the Buster Sword and kind of fold herself into the space between it and the wall to polish the back - She’d done that before, and to just a couple of cramps for her attempts! It was possible and she knew it... But that was always when it wasn’t far more upright and leaning against a corner with barely any space between the two, and only polishing one side like she had been wouldn’t do.

“I know.” The reply was short, blonde lifting her thumb to her lips for a nibble of a short-cut nail - probably a dead giveaway to Zack she was still debating going for it on her own anyway. Was it worth it to try? Probably not; the blade was a smidge taller than she was and at least three times heavier, if not more - If it fell on her, she’d be in trouble. All the same, cleaning and being helpful was something she’d always done on her own for a multitude of reasons... And a moment later, her shoulders sagged in resignation. As much as she wanted to do it for him, she couldn’t.

“I know,” Sera repeated again, turning to face him and meet his gaze with one that resembled her nickname of Kitten far too well: Soft, curious, and trusting. She could... Let him help her like this, right? It’d be okay? “I wanted to do it for you, but I’m not... Sure I can. It’s too close to the wall. If I try and pick it up, It’ll be a kitty pancake. If you can hold it at a different angle... Or on your lap! I can clean and polish it then, and then you won’t have to before bed- And you can sleep longer.” That’d work out for a deal, right? He didn’t have to do much, and she still did the work herself!  Win-win!

The situation was…awkward, to say the least, but Zack would try his best to hold still while Sephiroth tended to his injury. Zack thought he’d done good at it, too; only flinching a couple of times when whatever antiseptic Sephiroth was using had pricked his scrapes more than what he’d been expecting.

But it wouldn’t be the wound cleaning that’d get Zack to glance up. Instead, it’d bee what followed that’d force a confused blink from the younger First Class as he’d tried to wrap his head around what Sephiroth had said.

“ Yeah, but…why? ” Zack would question before letting a soft, but slightly insulted, huff fall out at that. “ Don’t tell me you guys didn’t want me up here that much that you had to tell the Director not to move me in? I wouldn’t have been that much trouble. ”

Even if Zack didn’t have a problem staying with where he’d been left though. He almost liked sharing a community space with the rest of SOLDIER, no matter how nice and luxurious the penthouse suit here was, which – Zack suddenly twisted his head around, trying his best to look up and down the hall without moving too much.

“ How many rooms did they put up here anyway? ”

“Just three.” The layout of the penthouse had been like this from the very beginning. A convenient coincidence, he’d thought in the past. Or maybe it had simply been a matter of the company deciding from the start that there would never be more than three First Class at any given time. But…

But now, with all of what had happened.. with the bug that Genesis had put in his ear ever since their last encounter during the attack in the headquarters, Sephiroth couldn’t help but think. Think that…

Had the three of them specifically always been meant to live in these rooms from the very beginning?

It couldn’t be, could it? He, Angeal, and Genesis had been brought to become SOLDIER by different circumstances. He, as an orphan taken in by the company, simply happened to have the right aptitude to climb the ranks. The others had followed a few years after, inspired by his fame in the war. A story that could be told for a vast number of candidates who’d never reached the top.

But was it really just a coincidence, or was he trying to dismiss a truth he didn’t want to face? The thought had his frown harden a bit, and his final wipe on Zack’s wound was a bit harder than it should have. Still, he did not apologize, and proceeded to bandage the cleaned bite marks with gauze, finally addressing the question he had originally avoided.

“… I didn’t want their things to be removed to make room for another.” In case they came back, he could add. But those words were as empty as they could be. Genesis and Angeal had deserted; both had already been declared killed in action. There was no ‘coming back’ such as that, even with a successful capture.

Locate and execute. Those were the orders.

How pathetic, he told himself. Fully knowing that, he’d held Zack back for nothing. Some whimsical attachment to belongings that weren’t even his. It wasn’t as if an empty room would urge neither Angeal nor Genesis to return. Clearly, they had left nothing behind that would be missed.

Huffing that self-deprecating irritation through his nose, he finished securing the bandage around Zack’s hand and finally looked up from it.

“But I think it’d be easier if you did move in, now. For the dog.” He added that last bit like he felt there was a need to specify to whose benefit this decision had been made. Pride, maybe. He could still fall into childish behaviors like that.

@honorisen Hope you don't mind a lil' Modern AU schtuff

“Hey, Zack? If you're waiting on a table, can I ask something?" Ludger wanted to ask during class earlier, but Mr. Reigan deducted points for any distractions. "Isn’t it a bit scary to know if you do enlist after graduating, you might have to... turn your skills on other people?” Ludger’s 'enemies' as a chef were relegated to bugs, mice, and rotten ingredients. Soldiers, on the other hand, fought other people, possibly to the death. Ludger couldn't imagine staring down someone ready to hurt him.

But maybe that's the difference for soldiers: they could handle the pressure...

“S-Sorry, that’s probably weird to ask during work. My mind drifts off to weird places on slow service days.” Emphasis on slow-- he and head chef Lana almost never restocked the cake and pie display cases until after closing. And here was Ludger, getting all philosophical while decorating a strawberry red velvet cake. "Um, if Lana and I wrap up on-time, would you want to stay after hours for cake? Old display items are 'first come, first serve' to employees."

“ Uh, yeah…that’s what I meant! I was just trying to lighten the mood some with that, that’s all. ”

Though Zack really doubted the creature in question was the type to laugh at jokes, though the teen could barely blame him either. If he’d been the one with a paw stuck in a trap and stuck beyond what he could get out of him, Zack probably wouldn’t have been laughing at anything either.

So Zack would step forward to grab the rope – hopefully not putting any more pressure on the feline’s rear leg than what was necessary before he’d yank at the string. With a few quick tugs, the rope broke from its hold, eventually leaving Nanaki with a loose noose around his back forepaw that he hopefully could’ve untangled with a few swift bites from sharp teeth.

“ There. How’s that? That trap really wasn’t that bad to deal with. At least I know getting that loose has gotta feel tons better. Right? ”

That the boy would consider the trap trivial was yet another jab at the poor beast’s pride; he’d spent a good part of that day trying to free himself from the damn ropes.

But the newfound freedom washed him with welcome relief, and he was quick to snag the remaining of the rope off of himself with his teeth, spitting the broken end of it with a disgusted scoff.

A shake of his head let the messy mane settle itself back in place; the parts of his coat where the ropes had pressed and rubbed were itching to be groomed, but Nanaki wouldn’t do that here, in this place… with this person watching him like a gold chocobo had appeared before his eyes.

For a minute, he didn’t answer. Staring at the human with grumpy suspicion and distrust despite the help received. Then finally, he found his word again, and it was bitter.

“You say that like you weren’t the one to set it up.”

So after much thought and dealing with a boatload of things offline for the last several months, I’ve made a few decision on how to move forward with this blog - Namely, that I won’t be.

That’s not to say I won’t be writing Kunsel going forward, because I will! Kunsel is simply moving; I have a multimuse he’ll be shifting to, while this blog will not only be archiving, but swapping urls with the multimuse due to the fact most of the muses there have Shinra ties, just like he does, and I don’t want to lose the url the multi currently has.

I’ll also be adding a crossover verse for him in Genshin Impact, another game I’ve been greatly enjoying and planning a lot of things for with @honorisen​ lately; there’s a fair few changes ready to be put into place for both Kasa and myself on the vast majority of our muses and blogs, and this is just the beginning - Not to mention changes that will be started here in the coming days.

I’ll be making a post when he’s fully moved, if anyone wants to follow him on over there instead, but until then, please consider Kunsel on a hiatus until I can fully archive this blog! <3

bottled emotions

tell them. tell them right now. you keep your emotions bottled up and it is doing absolutely no one a favor including you. you're the type of person that incorporates your feelings into art because you have no idea how to say it out loud. you fear rejection and the fact that you might not be good enough. i'm sensing recent heartbreak or unrequited love. if it's for you, it will come back to you. you're enough, i swear.

answer some questions and i’ll give you a character arc

romance/friendship arc

you started this story a little hard, or awkward, or stubborn. that's okay. it's harder than it should be to admit, but what you really want is love. that's what your story is all about - not just the act of loving, but the allowance of it. the confession that you do not want to fight or bleed or save the world, but to simply feel the way two hands fit so easily together. 

you will have two chairs and a table and you will shut your blinds, and you will say the word love without faltering. this is a happy ending, and you do not need to feel guilty. it hurts our hands to fight - never to hold.

@honorisen​ from HERE!

“...Weren’t you worried about how much I ate just last week? Having enough food is a priority, isn’t it?”

It was a weak excuse and Sera knew it, setting aside her folded shirt and reaching for another. Times like this, she was glad her odd jobs had often included housekeeping; folding was a quick and easy task, and helped keep her hands busy rather than fussing and fidgeting with the hem of her shirt or pulling at the leg of her pants over the thoughts rushing around her head. Was this the right timing? Could she pull off everything she needed to without raising suspicion if it wasn’t? Probably not... But then could she skirt around it, if needed?

She wasn’t sure - And that meant abandoning her folding in favor of turning her thoughts to another topic: Work. “I wanted to make sure we have enough food for the trip overall - You fuss more about my eating habits than I ever have, and it’s not like our destination is any too close, either. I know it’s a delivery and meeting up with someone for another job while we’re there, but it’s still a big deal, you know?” Or rather, it would be a big deal - The delivery was nothing more than an overseas order needing to get to its destination, but the mercenary work waiting for them when they got there...

Her next reach was for an apple slice on a nearby napkin, replacing her usual nervous fidgeting this time with a nibble of a snack - Something else highly unlike her. Food had always been a ‘leave it’ whenever she was given the choice between ‘take it or leave it’, a result of a multitude of reasons, but right now it was a nice distraction from the butterflies in the leopard’s stomach. “It’s best to be prepared - You have the package, right? And I don’t mean the eight apples I bought yesterday, though...?”

Sephiroth really did have that ‘always combat ready’ state of mine down pat, didn’t he? Zack was almost glad he didn’t have to voice that sleeping in a war bunker back in Wutai or being shoved inside a caravan on their way to their next assignment versus sleeping at HQ were two totally different things.

Here, Zack had space – and definitely expected space enough to sleep in his own bed. Or, well…a couch that’d apparently work like a makeshift bed until Zack could figure out exactly where in the First Class suites he’d be staying as he nodded.

“ Yeah, I guess- ” At least the sofa in question was big enough to act like a bed and Zack wasn’t picky, even if he couldn’t imagine Sephiroth’s own personal bed being anything less than the best Midgar gil could buy. He wouldn’t ever sleep in it with Sephiroth around, but that’d spurred a question-

“ So, when your next assignment? Y’know, like outside of Midgar? ”

Sephiroth had gotten accustomed to Zack’s nature of firing off questions seemingly out of the blue, connected to the conversation by threads so thin he could hardly understand. But nonetheless, he raised a curious, somewhat suspicious brow at that.

“… Already thinking of having this place all for yourself? I hope you’re not thinking of throwing a party.” He said, so dry it was impossible to tell whether this was one rare moment in which the silver First made an attempt at humor, or was dead serious.

Looking towards the large windows over the city, he still had the good manner to respond to the brunet’s curiosity.

“Until Lazard’s position is properly replaced, the responsibility to direct the Department falls on me. I will not be leaving the city… until it is necessary.” ‘Necessary’ being a word of vague meaning lately. Sometimes it involved duties only he could see through. Other times… things he wanted to take care of himself.

Sephiroth was growing sour with just how personal his job had become of late. Which was ironic, considering that up until now, he had very little to be called a ‘private life’ outside of work.

“You and I are the last First Class operators left.” He reminded Zack after a pause, glancing over his shoulder. “I might end up ‘pushing’ more assignments on you in the future.”

MUSE FAVORITES :  PREFERENCES

✧ Animal: Cissnei is most definitely a cat person. They’re a lot more self-dependent which is good for her since she isn’t at home a lot of the time, and when she is she always makes sure to shower her kitty with love. Their curious nature and instincts reflects very well with her overall demeanour, one might even consider her as the kitten to Zack’s puppy. 

✧ Flowers: Red Chrysanthemum 

✧ Scent: The finest perfume, a scent most alluring that she wears. Every time she steps outside, she always tries to smell her best as if she was attending a formal party or ball. It’s not a strong scent, but a subtle perfume that makes you turn your head and say “Damn, she smells nice.” under your breath

✧ Coffee: Mocha, she loves the coffee taste with the smooth chocolatey aftertaste. She has quite the sweet tooth~

✧ Tea: She likes her tea spiced, similar to a chai tea.

✧ Drink: Milkshakes and dessert cocktails, like Irish Cream liqueur fused with coffee if she really wants to wake up.

✧ Alcohol: Red wine, whiskey, dessert liqueurs.

✧ Food: She loves fried foods, French fries, fried chicken, burgers and whatnot but she only eats these on her cheat days. Other than that, she sticks to a strict keto diet.

✧ Dessert: Cheesecake, red velvet cake.

✧ Clothing: Verse-dependent: if she’s in a fantasy setting, I’ve always placed her as an assassin/thief/pirate type so she would defo wear leather armour providing enough protection while she can move with great agility. In the main FF verse, she wears the Turk suit and in her casual attire, jeans, a shirt, maybe some leather such as a jacket.

✧ Candy: Doesn’t really like candy, but she loves chocolate. Go to her office, she’s always got a tin or a box of chocolate.

✧ Left or Right Handed?: Ambidextrous, left hand preferred.  

✧ Sloppy or Neat Writing?: As a master of subterfuge, she is able to mimic handwriting, but her own handwriting is relatively neat and tidy. Sometimes it’s a little small to read but on the whole, it’s quite nice to look at.

✧ Clean or Messy Home?: Cissnei’s home is clean and tidy, as befitting of someone of her occupation. Some clothes are strewn on a sofa or her bed, sometimes pillows will be on the floor thanks to her cat but her luxury apartment is kept pristine, as if no one even lived there.

✧ Shower in Morning or Night?: Night time showers, she likes to wash away the stresses of the day as well as the sweat and grime before going to sleep refreshed, especially since she exercises after work.

✧ Tasks Done Early or Last Minute?: Tasks are always done early, gives her more time to enjoy herself and have fun.

✧ Love Language?: Affirmations for sure, there’s a certain joy that flows inside of her when someone compliments her in an affectionate way. Add physical touch onto that and she just melts. For her, if you compliment her while brushing her hair or caressing her cheek or holding her close is something that she just can’t resist. Acts of service is also a big one for her, a true follower of the ‘I scratch your back, you scratch mine’.

✧ Believe in Love at First Sight?: Love at first sight is a myth to her, she believes as you get to know someone more you will eventually form a bond. The longer she spends with someone in a personal or intimate way, the more she will eventually fall for that person. She does enjoy the odd fun night every now and then, and she finds it incredibly fun and liberating but truly falling for someone? She knows the difference, and she’s experienced it only once.

“  —!? ” From his surprised grimace to the quick snap of his hand away from the creature’s mouth, Zack hadn’t been expecting the feline-like animal to use physical words to answer him! A huff here or a flick of an ear there had been all the kid had thought he’d get in reply, even if his speaking up to the beast had been an instinct all in itself. The poor animal had looked uncomfortable and stuck and Zack had just wanted to help.

Though it’d only taken a moment after his initial surprise for Zack to fall into complete curiosity over the creature, too. He’d lean in, slightly so he could still respect the other’s personal space, but enough so that he could glance the feline over again with a small shake of his head.

“ Not really. You’re kinda the first one of…uh, you that I’ve seen around here. ‘Cause, to be honest, I actually almost thought you were someone’s pet before, but- ”

Zack didn’t know of many pets that could speak a human tongue, unless they were the well trained bird type that he knew people back in the village kept. Gongaga had always been full of weird and strange creatures like that – but this wasn’t the friendly atmosphere of his home village’s center square. This was then open and wild countryside; just like the animal that lay captured right in front of him wasn’t a familiar talking parrot either.

But Zack would still be quick to snag one of the ropes closest to his boots in an attempt to free the animal. If he could actually understand him, then maybe Zack could trust him not to attack.

“ You need some help here though? I don’t know who set this up here like that, but you look like you could use an extra paw or two. ”

The young boy’s answer had Nanaki emit a gruff noise out of his nose. Not only had he suffered the torture of this trap and the consequential humiliation of needing help out of it, but it seems it’d all be for nothing on top of that.

Hearing himself called a pet only added insult to injury, and he threw a sharp ochre glare to the two-legs knelt before him.

At least the help he offered was not unwelcome, unlike most of his comments that despite clearly coming from an innocent place in his heart managed to hit all the wrong spots in the beast’s pride.

“I don’t need another paw. I need a hand like the ones you’ve got to get out of here… please.” The plea was reluctant and framed with shame; the snagged rope loosening around one of his legs and immediately causing him to sigh in relief while he curled it under his body.

[shinrarisen]

So as a heads up, please pardon the dust for a while around here! As I mentioned in Febuary, back before Rebirth came out, I would be taking the game slowly - And I have been, resulting in me just now reaching Gongaga as of last night and finding Cissnei. Even so early into the village, I already have a lot of feelings and thoughts considering what direction to take my blog(s; @sakurarisen is involved in this choice as well and been getting more regular updates), and I've been actively talking it out with @honorisen, who is not as far into the game as i am due to an incredibly busy schedule and still does not wish to be spoiled - But is still working with me on our new direction.

With this in mind, I'm going to be, for the next week or so depending on my own health and schedule, starting to do some updates around here! There's going to be some heavy changes made, including the following:

I'll be focusing on Crisis Core into Rebirth from this point forward. I have not played Before Crisis and right now, I have no intention of looking into it; anything to do with Cissnei's role as a Turk prior to CC with be vague, and will not reference BC in any shape or form. tl;dr: Before Crisis does not apply to my take on Cissnei, only Crisis Core, Remake, and Rebirth. This also applies to Kunsel, though given he's largely unseen for much of the series aside from CC, that's easier for me to work with. I will not be doing anything set in OG without request anymore, as OG was actually suffocating to my muses, and Remake provides me with more wiggle room... And less focus on pain, suffering, and angst.

My blogs/FF based verses are set in their own timeline. Rebirth, following on from the end of Remake, has introduced multiple verses and timelines; the canon for both this blog, @sakurarisen, @bountyrisen, and Kasa's own @honorisen will be shifting to a timeline of our own that follows closely to canon events of CC, Remake, and Rebirth, but with a few divergences. I'll be making up a 'Divergences From Canon' page for this blog to match Sera's, as well, to further explain where we diverge from canon, and how. This is also canon for Kasa's Zack, and this timeline will continue to focus on Zack and Sera as they raise their family and try to survive, with the help of their friends.

Cissnei will be moving to Gongaga. I rather like how she was set up as leaving the Turks and moving there, and I'll be keeping that in these updates.

There is some original lore of my own creation that will be added as a background factor to all verses on this blog, and has been added to all my blogs as a whole, with varying degrees of relevancy and being seen. More on this will come when the updates are done, as I need to redo my rules and verses as well.

I'm still playing through Rebirth and likely won't be done with it anytime soon for a LOT of reasons, but at least I have a direction to start work on! So please pardon the dust - We're under construction again~! <3
