' ah! mori-san, how about one of those? ' keeping close together as they went down the market street to stock up on groceries, a finger suddenly points to a sugar painting stand; its artist and wheel waiting. yan qing first offers the merchant a little coin, then spins the waiting arrow with a fairly gentle push, its tip spinning about dozens of different designs. ' you'll like this, i think. though, i'd end up a little embarrassed if it landed on the peony or - ' ah. the swallow. cheeks flush but yan qing still laughs off any bashfulness. the artist was already working, and it wasn't long until they were offering a beautiful, amber-sugar bird to the enormous man beside him. ' alright, that one's yours! i'll get one more for myself. if i get lucky, maybe i'll end up with the phoenix or a dragon ... they're not just for decoration, by the way. you can eat these, of course! '

     NAGAYOSHI WAS COMPLETELY FASCINATED by what he saw as they walked through the marketplace, but that was primarily because he was unused to this level of hustle and bustle. There were so many sounds and colors, each one holding his attention as they passed by countless stalls with individuals trying their best to sell their wares, but he was quick to take notice of that sugar stand the Yan Qing pointed out. ❝Huh? What’s this…?❞ Stepping close, he watched as the merchant spun a wheel to pick which design they would be creating. ❝Whoa…❞ The awe was uttered with the same fascination a child might have in a situation like this, his gaze glued on where that wheel came to land, and equally as fascinated as the merchant went to work. Although he heard Yan Qing’s words, they were almost distant as he had to force himself to pay attention in full to what was being said. ❝Huh? Why would you be emb…❞ he paused, pondered…then understood. ❝Ah, nevermind. I get it.❞ He glanced over to the other, gaze clearly amused.

     The peony… That had to do with the tattoo the other had on his body, right? And the swallow was due to his name, wasn’t it? Yan Qing... Heh, he thought it a fitting name. They did remind him of the bird. In regard to the peony that adorned their body...tattoos were an abnormality for Nagayoshi, but not in an unpleasant fashion. Just in the fact that he had never seen them before on anyone else. Thus, if he even caught a glimpse of the other’s skin, he was already staring with the intensity of a thousand suns. Even so, he couldn’t help but want to laugh at the other’s bashful demeanor. Perhaps even tease just a little…but he would spare them that…for now. As soon as the bird was finished, he reached out to take it, so careful that he might as well be holding porcelain than a sugary treat. ❝…How am I supposed to eat this?❞ It was too beautiful to eat! Even Nagayoshi couldn’t bring himself to casually chomp down on it like some common confectionary! ❝…Y’sure you just...eat it?❞ One hundred percent? A thousand percent sure?

MEANWHILE. XENOYQ WISHING HE COULD DO THAT AND SKIP THE M*RDER AND K*LLING AND LYING LEGWORK HE HAS TO DO ALL THE TIME

​─「エデン」─  " i wouldn't mind if you want to possess me. " the way she said it was so casual that one would think she was teasing. however, the look on her face would've been a telltale sign that she was serious. she tilted her head, shrugging her shoulders a little as though it wasn't a big deal. it was contrasting of how HOSTILE she was against the heliobus trying to do the same thing. to her, it wasn't THE SAME, though.

peony :   what would a   ‘  happy life  ’   look like in your muse’s eyes ?

botanical headcanons,   open !   @tenkoseiensei ♡

(i hope) we all know hakuno's characterized as someone who so desperately wants to live.... but what's a little funny is that i'd say she's someone who's good at surviving, if that makes sense! hard to say that you're living when your life takes place in a simulated world created for a war 🚶‍♂️ and what little we know about hakuno's lifestyle really reflects that. she sleeps for 6 hours and 15 minutes on a hard floor and eats to "nourish her brain" (and i personally have a headcanon that she just eats for the status effects that the food items grants to help in battle) rather than for any enjoyment. those harsh circumstances make her extremely grateful for even being able to see another day, but could you really call that living? i don't think hakuno knows it herself

i'd love to see her get the chance to live a normal life free from any fighting or killing but 😭 WE ALL KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO HER AT THE ENDD UE UEE

i will say that canon!hakuno definitely has a solid idea of what happiness is, but i'll be talking about my take and my portrayal bere :3c

given hakuno's struggles to even exist nd understand her own feelings, i think it'd make more sense that she wouldn't even know what "happiness" is, and much less a happy life. from what we see in canon, i think that with time she'll naturally and eventually come to the conclusion that her happiness = everyone else's, which sounds pretty simple but it's an interesting mindset to operate on! especially when you factor in all of the other (for lack of better wording) issues that hakuno has.

hakuno genuinely desires what's best for everyone, it's just that she takes it to the extreme level where she's trying to be this perfect ideal because that's the only way she'd feel deserving of anything. not to mention how without any family, friends or purpose in life, that self-imposed duty "for everyone's sake" is the only thing driving her forward. i put it in quotation marks too because there's a part in ccc's true route where sakura asks hakuno what she's fighting for and hakuno herself is not mentioned at all in three options even though pretty much the rest of the cast is :,)

it also hurts just a little because as much as she values unity and working together, it's clear that she's also working on her own agenda to make sure that everyone (herself excluded 🥹) will truly be alright. this is also why i think it'd be sooo neat if they explored more of how alone hakuno is-- how she really is someone who is disconnected from everyone else. she's like an outsider trying to be part of a group that she can't actually be a part of.

i always mention this point too, but she's truly selfless to the most extreme way! selfless to the point where she'd have no self left despite that being the thing she wanted the most; to find herself and to have an identity of her own. she's constantly diminishing her own wants and needs in doing so too which would only add on to this lack of identity. so the reason i bring all of this up is because don't think she'd be able to find happiness this way! and i think that would only confuse her even more beause by her definition of happiness, she should be happy. agjfhsf it's really interesting stuff to think about!!

hakuno's actually really simple though :,) so even if it may take her some (A Lot) of time to figure it out for herself, i think the best thing to bring up here is the picture frame that hakuno got from taiga. it has the description "use it to frame your most precious memory" and she used it to frame a picture of her and her servant 🥺 there's not a dedicated scene to it or anything, it's more like a cute little side thing you can notice but i think it speaks volumes about hakuno's character!! there's a lot of conflict between being selfless/selfish in hakuno's character arc methinks, but in the end i think that's all that truly matters to her :,)

even though her life isn't exactly what you'd imagine a happy life would be, and even if she still doesn't really have understand happiness, she'd consider the life she's lived a happy one because it was a life she got to spend with the people she cared for 🥹🥹 i'm specifically thinking of canon fate/extra here, but yeah ......... she still wanted to live and she definitely would've wanted to be able to spend more time with them, of course, but i think just knowing that they're alive and will be able to continue living on to the future brought her so much happiness even in her last moments /i'm typing thru tears rn tsunnie HAKUNO DESERVES SM I LOVE HER SM

@tenkoseiensei asked:

climbs up onto the alter's shoulder and happily perches there. yan qing makes a cursory scan of his surroundings with a hand over his eyes. ' woah-hoh, so high up! hey, can i stay here for a little while? y'don't mind, right? '  surely a servant of his weight is nothing to this guy!

         Yan Qing predictably weighs nothing to him, but he picks him back up and puts him on the ground.  “Were you raised in a barn?”

[ecsterlies]

@tenkoseiensei​ (plotted):

       Jason’s spent about an hour in Shinjuku, and he’s already firmly decided that he hates it and wants to go home.  First he got separated from Master and the others when they got launched into the air like party balloons, and then he had to fall back down.  Thankfully, with a combination of luck and a vague knowledge of skydiving from the History channel, he managed to aim himself so he broke his fall without dying.

       Unfortunately, he’s got some nasty bruises forming and his clothes are pretty banged up.  Whenever he finds Master again, he’s going to give Da Vinci a tongue lashing.

        ...For now at least, he’s sat down on the grubby curb to catch his breath.  Whatever those shop mannequin-type things were, they looked dangerous and exactly like something Jason shouldn’t throw himself at.  Where were the Archers when he needed them?  ...Pretty much everything in this neighborhood activates his danger-ometer.  Maybe he could kill two birds in one stone and sell some of his jewelry before he gets mugged.

        Rubbing a particularly big bruise forming on his thigh, Jason tries to keep an eye on his surroundings, chaotic as the noise of the city is.  Still, there’s this weird crawling on his neck that he can’t quite explain.  He sits up straight and looks around, trying to identify the source among the few timid passersby.

@tenkoseiensei​ asked:

-tentatively offers hans a piece of candy-

  He looks down at the candy.  Looks back up at Yan Qing.

   “I know you want to say something banal about taking candy from strange adults, so do the whole world- or what’s still left- a favor and shout it out when nobody’s around to suffer hearing it.”

    He still takes the candy and pops it into his mouth to suck on, satisfied.  “Boiled sweets, huh?  That’s a surprisingly nostalgic choice for a type like you,” Hans continues around the hard candy.

[truelifeof]

@tenkoseiensei​ asked:

yeah uuuuh can i get some over the counter coke

       “Why?  Ya got a head cold?”

[geistbound]

@tenkoseiensei​ asked:

' yo , hessian ... y'want a head at all ? i'm sure we could find a spare . ' he's thinking a pumpkin , or a bucket with a face drawn on it , or hell - maybe even a REAL one if the more gruesome servants could be asked of a favor.

        There’s a pause before Hessian answers, considering it, though perhaps not for the obvious reasons.  ‘Do you want to go headhunting or are you here to joke?’  He doubts someone as facetious as Yan Qing actually has the guts.

@tenkoseiensei said (inbox):

hey as an ex mitsuhide rper just out of curiosity can i actually hear nagayoshi's opinion on mitsuhide. uve given me hints re mori's dislike but like is there a big meta

[HE CANNOT STAND HIM. Nagayoshi has stated many times that he absolutely hates betrayal. And anyone who betrays their allies is scum to him, especially the betrayal to a lord. Samurai were so weird about this like…if your lord was hot garbage and abused those around them, took enjoyment out of torturing and harming their servants, ect., that samurai was still supposed to serve them faithfully despite how they felt. Of course you always had underhanded stuff going on behind the scenes, but that was always carefully concealed and done in roundabout ways so it wouldn’t get back to any one individual. Even with switching sides, which me and you know happened a lot, everyone would still look at you weird or in some cases, or be wary of trusting you if you were just altogether somewhat shady (lmfao Masamune). So no matter Mitsuhide’s intentions, he doesn't care and deems him a traitor.]

          Sanson isn’t hiding from Amadeus.  He isn’t pitiful enough that he needs someone else to defend him.  In fact, they’re supposed to be friends, aren’t they?  They’re both supposed to be Marie’s friends, so... It’s just because he’s tired and doesn’t want to hear it again.  He’ll leave the library once he’s steeled his nerve.  He’s a grown-up, so putting up with rude remarks and pranks is something he’s used to.

          “...How long have you been standing there?” Sanson’s gaze slide away from his book to the corner of his eyes.  As an assassin, he has a weak presence as well, but it’s still disconcerting for someone to seemingly pop out of thin air like that.  “Excuse my manners.  Though, to get this out of the way, I’d recommend watching your step when you leave the library.  You might catch a certain someone who’s waiting for me out there, like a shark who’s smelled fresh blood.”

         Sanson turns the page, his attention returning to ‘Bioinsecurities: Disease Interventions, Empire, and the Government of Species’.

@tenkoseiensei​​ said ; bonjour mr dantes would you like to reenact the great historical komaeda kinnie no doubles war with me  /  from :  𝐔𝐍𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐃

        𝐀 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐱𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐞 slips past his lips, and with it, particles of his own weighted spirit seem to be freed out of his lungs- or at least, temporarily. Despite this impression, the man’s tiredness remained stuck on his features, just as if it were some sort of nonwashable stain, something that he had to carry with himself wherever he went and for as long as he was alive. With each breath, he grew more resilient, bitter, but also calmer ..... Yes, this was how Edmond Dantes spent his breaks before charging once again into the battlefield, his own way of taking some time for himself, to clear his mind; however, god had other plans for him. He always had the most unexpected plans for him.

        ‘ ⸺  the great historical komaeda kinnie no doubles war with me ’

Those were the words he was able to retain from the cretin standing next to him. The small and humble  ‘bonjour Mr. Dantes’ had long been blatantly ignored by him as he could already begin to physically feel his entire being wanting to materialize in those small golden cubes and serve a different purpose as a servant than having to endure hearing whatever new nonsense the other seemed to think he enjoyed listening to ..... or maybe he just wished to magically make the other disappear, either of those options were good enough for him.

He frowns, and the cigarette in between his lips somehow fails to serve its purpose to calm him down as he can already feel his blood boiling under his veins-    This fool.... This idiot.... This cretin.... this tête de noeud...... He was going to kill him, this was it- he was going to do it. no- he’s doing it, he’s going to put and end to this he⸺     He finally pulls the cigarette away from his lips and crushes its head against the little trail next to him ( because this matter was infuriating him so much that he was willing to crush one of his cigarettes. ) and finally directed his gaze at Yan Qing;

        ❝  I physically cannot stand you.  ❞
