Nagamasa Azai

[koorinokujira]

Hey-ya! I saw that your requests are open. Can i perhaps request Date Masamune, Azai Nagamasa, and Fūma Kotarō with an s/o who got hurt while trying to protect them? Thank you!

Ah, my first request, how delightful! You asked and you shall receive, dear Anon! Now, despite being someone who writes so much, I have somewhat of a terrible reading comprehension, so I hope you meant it in the way that the s/o was the one doing the protecting (maybe it's unreasonable, but my brain also interpreted the other way and now I'm unsure, oof). That's the way I wrote it, but of course I'll gladly write it the other way around in the future, or even make a part 2 of this with other characters! More author's notes at the end. Happy reading!

⛊ His Shield - SB Imagines ⛊

(Masamune, Nagamasa, Kotarō)

You're no fighter, and yet you sneaked onto the battlefield nonetheless, wracked with worry for your beloved. You know you shouldn't be here, but how can you just sit around in safety while he risks your life for you and his clan? The idea that you'll just wait there anxiously and he may or may not come back alive... it's too much. You find a good spot where you can see most of the battlefield while still remaining hidden. Everything goes well for a while, until you see an enemy wielding a tanegashima aiming at the love of your life, without him noticing. Without thinking, you rush into the fray, and make it just in time to jump in front of the bullet...

⛊ Masamune ⛊

When Masamune hears the gunshot, his head instantly snaps back in that direction. He expects to see one of his men and is already ready to give new orders to make sure the party doesn't stop because of a single wounded. But instead, he sees you. He's stunned.

Your eyes are wide as you slowly fall on your knees, clutching the wound with your hand. You're bleeding, and badly. At least the pain is not such a problem, as you are in a state of shock, barely even comprehending what's happening. The One-Eyed Dragon lets out a low, frustrated grunt, struggling to believe what he's seeing. But he's a leader, and knows he can't just stand there. So he quickly starts barking out orders, making sure your position is well-defended. He also doesn't hesitate to order Kojūrō to quickly carry you to safety. His loyal eye is reluctant to leave his lord's side, but any potential protests are quickly shut down. Masamune is seeing red, and before anyone can say anything else, he's already tearing through the enemy with all of his six claws. You were supposed to stay home, sure. You shouldn't have come here, so getting hurt is technically your own fault in his eyes... but he quickly put two and two together and knows you most likely saved his life.

He cares about you too much to not be absolutely furious when someone hurts you. He already caused many a scene when someone even said something bad about you, so this is serious. His party mood is long gone, and the Dragon is ready to unleash worse death and destruction than Orochi himself. For you. He would do anything to take revenge on those who have wronged you. He doesn't forget so easily.

Kojūrō takes you back to safety and it's clear that even if he wishes to join his lord on the battlefield, he will gladly stay with you and protect you on his orders. You are his lord's greatest treasure, and so he will make sure you are safe. He even reassures you a few times when you panic in your somewhat-delirious state. You lost a lot of blood, but the medics you were brought to made sure the bleeding got stopped.

Eventually, the battle ends and the Dragon of Ōshū comes back. There's blood all over his armor, face and clothes. But judging by his calm, measured expression, it's clear none of it is his. Without a word, he kneels down beside you, and once he's sure it's fine, he gently pulls you into an embrace, careful not to cause you unnecessary pain. He runs his bloodied fingers through your hair, trying to soothe you, relieved that you're still alive. And you feel relieved too. You're both safe again, and most importantly, you're together. You've never been as happy to see that piercing eye of his as you are now.

"What you did was really stupid... but also cool."

The last word rolls off his tongue as he speaks that strange foreign language again and he rests his chin on the top of your head. His expression is a mix of frustration and that comforting, almost arrogant nonchalance you know him for.

"If you're so desperate to join the party, then at least learn how to fight and wear some armor. You know where I keep my spares," he then huffs, but it's clear he's not truly scolding you or playing down your bravery, it seems more like an invitation than anything. "Can't have you embarassing me like that again, you see?"

His expression turns into a somewhat playful grin when you smile and nod, before he plants a kiss on your forehead. He could never really be mad at you. But losing you... it terrifies him.

For what is a dragon without his star to guide him in the night sky?

⛊ Nagamasa ⛊

Nagamasa feels like his heart stopped working when he turns towards the sound of a gunshot and sees you fall to the ground like a sack of rice. Like always, he was just focused on fighting for justice and leading his men to victory, tunnel vision obscuring most of the things around him. But all it takes is one distraction, and everything crumbles before his eyes. And oh, is you getting wounded a distraction.

After a moment of shock, he finally rushes to your side, yelling for his men to protect you both and to not stop fighting. He sounds angry, though you are unable to tell if he's more mad at you or the attacker. Considering that he can be a rather volatile personality, your guess is good as anyone's. And in his head, he's absolutely furious. He really, really wants to yell at you- for not listening to him and not staying home. That slowly turns into anger at how you most likely thought your life was somehow worth less than his to even begin thinking about saving him. He knew what he was doing, he was ready for death in pursuit of justice! And yet, you, someone who doesn't even know how to wield a blade properly, just saved him so selflessly, and... no. The more he stares at your now tear-stained face, the more he realizes how much of that anger is fear in reality. Fear that you'll die and he will be powerless to stop it. Who else could he hold each night as he sleeps, who else could he love? Who would soothe his pains after he comes home, weary from battle? No one. There's no one else but you.

He takes you into his arms, his grip firm yet gentle as he runs with you to the sidelines. He feels like he's failing his men, but you are his priority right now. The world seems to fade around you both as time keeps ticking. But luckily, he gets you to safety and his men start taking care of your wounds. He's there the whole time, holding your hand as he anxiously watches the battle and barks out an order or two. But he knows you need him, and so he stays there the rest of the battle, which the Azai army luckily ends up winning. His anger slowly subsides, and the only part that remains is a desire to take revenge. That can wait, though.

For now, you need your gallant hero to take care of you.

⛊ Kotarō ⛊

Everything was going incredibly well for him. After all, why wouldn't it? Kotarō was the best of the best. Those who saw him didn't usually get to live for long, unless they hired him. The very definition of a shadow, just a thousand times more deadly. He had everything carefully planned out, and he knew that he could count on his insane reflex speed and well-trained senses to drag him out of trouble if something unexpected happened.

But there was one variable he never really counted on; you.

And it wasn't the first time. That's what drew him to you in the first place- you were one of the few who managed to surprise him. But those surprises were sweet in nature. Not... not this one. He knew about the attacker, of course, but he figured he'd take care of him right after he finishes gutting another enemy soldier like a fish. But you jumped in, thinking he could die.

You put your life on the line for him.

Everything around him seems to happen in slow-motion, even though he hesitates for barely even a second before taking you into his arms and disappearing with you to safety in a puff of smoke and feathers. He feels something... unfamiliar, long forgotten. Worry. And perhaps even a sliver of empathy. That honestly sends him into a spiral of doubt, even if he knows he can help you.

He's a ninja, after all. He forsook his humanity the moment he began training, if he even had any before. Emotions are but a distraction. He needs to be fully at peace through the bloodshed, no matter how many screams he hears or how much more his weapons get stained with crimson. An attached ninja is a bad ninja, everyone in his profession knows that. Despite you two being in a relationship, he considered it more of a courtesy and kept his distance, since you wouldn't be denied and kept finding him no matter how well he disguised himself.

But now, once you're further off, safe in the deepest part of the woods and he gently sets you down on the soft moss... it's like something is tugging at his heartstrings. You let out a sob, thinking you're going to die and reach out your bloodied hand towards him. You jumped in front of that bullet for him. A ninja who never even smiled at you, who never spoke a word to you and seemed to merely tolerate your presence. You cared. And by the kami, he wants more of that sudden warm feeling spreading all across his chest.

Kotarō gently takes your hand in his, and decides that it's now or never for him. His other hand carefully slides to the back of his mask...

...and he lets it fall down to the ground.

His face is quite beautiful, a bit older than you thought it would be. There's scars all around his eyes. And oh, those eyes. Dark scleras and white irises, as if someone flipped their color scheme on its head. They don't look human at all, and yet, there is a sadness in them that you can't help but get lost in. Your own eyes widen, and you completely forget about everything else, even your tears seem to dry in an instant. He showed you something almost no one else as seen... or maybe even no one. He sees your trust and wants to repay it in kind.

His face is as expressionless as ever, but you catch his lips move. Maybe it's just the wind, but you swear you can hear a quiet voice come out of his throat as he mouths those words.

"...forgive me. I'll do better. I am grateful."

And he will start by fixing you up and carrying you home.

Whew, it's finally here! I'm so, so sorry for the delay Anon, I promise I didn't forget about you! Before Christmas, I had to quickly write a fairly long story for my English class (which I also set in the Sengoku period, funnily enough). While it was my pride and joy, I was already on the verge of a burnout, so I had to recharge! Aaand after that it was a mix of writer's block and procrastion. I'm kind of sick again at the moment, so I decided to comfort myself with finally finishing this! (*_ _)人

I really enjoyed writing about all three (even though our dear Nagamasa-sama has a shorter entry)! And I'm also glad I got to use Kotarō's supposed legendary heritage. Some stories about him say he was partly oni and had inverted eyes, and considering his upper face is covered instead of the lower one, I saw an opportunity!

I hope you enjoyed reading, requests will remain open!

And as I always say...

Have an amazing day!

For what reason why Oichi was there at Ieyasu’s main base was truly unknown but he saw something from the the sister of the ‘Demon King’. The last time she saw him was he was a little-like guy with a cane but now he’s fully grown and mature. Normally, Tadakatsu was supposed to be in his side but he was defeated by Oichi either way.

Mist or not, Ieyasu could be seeing things as both of them never met or a little regarding on Nagamasa’s presence in this place. Right now, he was walking towards Oichi but not hostile. “Unbelievable.” He knew the downfall of Oda but he was surprised to see her survive. ‘The Demon Queen of the Fifth Heaven’ Oichi. If her existence is a sign that Nobunaga could appear any time, he’s not going to leave her. He’s going to take care of her, just like Nagamasa did.

“Very well, i will take care of Lady Oichi.” He had made his mind to take responsibility to her as there was another.

Oichi had nothing else to do than just standing around but she heard him. Even as an imprint, he felt Nagamasa’s presence but he only looked at him as like, one of her officers.

“You must be one of the Oda’s officers. Don’t worry, she’s safe in my hands.” He made a vow that he will do his very best onto their next battles.

Right when she wore the mask, it changed her into a rune god which was under a flaming wolf. Now she had to stay outside if she wants to sleep but knowing that dogs can’t eat like humans, let alone Rayearth eats like a normal dog, as obvious.

She tried to enter the castle but due to her being a fire wolf, she was rejected even if she was invited but now instead, trying to go home at Fibbonaci but there is Nagamasa, for the second time.

“W-We meet again.” She tried on not to be intimidating but the fixated eyes, does its work.

Exploration is sometimes that Apollonia supposed to do if she wants to know what’s with the wards and everything Spirale offered after looking at some pamphlet that she threw away since her very first. Even if not roommates but at least living in the same place which was fairly fine with her.

Maybe heading to Cotes seemed to be reasonable why she had to go with him, regardless of what will he do there.

“If you’re going to the second ward, hope you don’t mind me coming with you.” She only wanted to see the whole Cotes for herself, which is why she picked him as company than heading alone.

After leaving Condo 406 as the succubus knew what she can do in basics, there she sees someone with a trash can lid and a wooden sword. The spear though, she never asked for this. Wished she carries an axe instead but what the heck. It doesn’t matter so she will have to stick to polearm basics.

Knowing that he senses evil afoot, Albedo is evil-incarnate but only when completely pissed off but she isn’t at the moment.

“Whatever you’re trying to do with me, cease this!” Knowing her defenses were locked away, maybe word negotiation may work.

Parasoul isn’t familiar with eastern-related culture, let alone this man wearing similarly in Japanese. In fact, this was very new to her sights. With that damned Hello Kitty umbrella opened to cover herself from sunlight, maybe this man needs something that she never knew.

But hey, they’re both newcomers in this wretched place that isn’t New Meridian.

“Your outfit seemed unique. I haven’t seen something like this in my whole life as you’re the first.” She’s disregarding that trash can lid he was carrying.

✧ Fic and Imagines Request Rules ✧

So, I thought I would make a small rule list, since I really want to do requests as well, apart from the stuff I think of, and want it to go smoothly for all of us! I'll do it in the form of a small Q&A so it's easy to read! I may make small changes to this list. ☆ ～('▽^人)

✧ Will you write about all Sengoku Basara characters, or only some? ✧

Currently, I'll write only about characters I like, know more about and am comfortable with. I'm still fairly new to the fandom, so more will probably be added to the list!

The characters I will write about for now:

✎ Date Masamune

✎ Katakura Kojūrō

✎ The Maedas (Matsu, Toshiie, Keiji)

✎ Saika Magoichi

✎ Uesugi Kenshin

✎ Kasuga

✎ Sanada Yukimura

✎ Sarutobi Sasuke

✎ Fūma Kotarō

✎ Azai Nagamasa

✎ Mōri Motonari

✎ Chōsokabe Motochika

✎ Oichi

✎ Ishida Mitsunari (?)

✎ Takeda Shingen

Of course, when it comes to crack fics and the like, I will most likely involve other characters as well, and they will often be mentioned even in the regular ones. They just won't be the main heroes of the stories or the focus of my imagines.

✧ Can I request a fic with an OC of mine? ✧

Of course! As long as you provide me all the information about them, I'm up for it! I love to see the little fictional people others make, and it would be my honor to write about them too (ships included of course). The more information you give me, the better, and I'll do my best to portray them accurately! As I write, I may ask some additional questions and discuss some ideas (without spoiling too much), to make it the best I can. ⸜(*ˊᗜˋ*)⸝

✧ How detailed should the request be? ✧

However much you want. For imagines, it will of course be simple, as they're just small thoughts or scenes of the characters in certain scenarios. For fics, it can also be super simple, just give me an idea and I'll do my best to match your expectations. But if you have something more detailed in mind, go ahead and tell me! Have a song in mind that you think would fit for a certain character or scene? Send me that too, music gives me inspiration like nothing else! AUs? Absolutely! As long as there is something for me to work with, it's good! ( ´ ▽ ` )

If you wish to request something, send an ask or a message. You can even do it through a reblog, if that's even a thing? I will ocassionally post about opening requests, so you can do that on there I suppose.

✧ Will you do NSFW, Gore, etc? ✧

NSFW - As is stated in my blog introduction, I don't really do NSFW. I can imply it, or kind of skip over it in another way if needed, but I will never straight up write about sex.

Gore - I mean, Sengoku Basara is about a huge war, so some gore is expected. I don't mind it, but don't expect me to be too detailed either (because of pacing, mostly). I'll describe the violence as needed, but my main focus is how the characters feel, think and act. So in short, there will be gore, but the detail of it will vary depending on how much it actually matters to the scene, and you don't have to worry about anything too mentally scarring I think.

As for other things, it depends, I'll speak out if I'm not comfortable with something apart from the obvious things. I will put trigger warnings where they're needed, but forgive me if I omit something on accident.

✧ Do you do fics on other things than Sengoku Basara? ✧

Currently? No.

But, in the future I will! Once that happens, this section will be updated. You can probably expect some Ghost of Tsushima or Final Fantasy stuff when that happens.

That should be all for now!

Thanks for reading all this, and have a great day!

Definitely he’s not one of those lost people from Seireitei as Nanao would wonder about him. Reading books inside Spirale’s library is something a little habit for her asides from wandering around the fields. He might be looking at her, so she looks back at him as she asked about what does he want while standing still.

“What can i do for you? I was about to visit the library to read books just in case if you ask.” She may never read minds but she can guess what others’ intentions are and this is a succession. Nanao cared less now since he is human and she isn’t but a shinigami.

“You wish to read with me inside?” Maybe he likes to read books or something but she will never know.

There is something that one of the Supreme Beings remind her of someone as his aura was filled with justice. Narberal might remember but indeed it was like Touch Me. Only him who had the aura of justice like Sebas does.

Reminding is over as she’s snapped herself back to reality. Is he some kind of an adventurer with the wooden sword and the trash can lid. He looked ridiculously silly.

“Are you here to searching for a lost trash container with that thing on your hand?” She was referring to that ‘shield’ of his. Narberal would laugh but she can’t. Mixed feelings and reactions, perhaps.

As there were no battles going on with the Black Eagles, Lysithea was there at a nearby cemetery on House Ordelia territory where her siblings were dead by experimentation by ‘Those who Slither in the Dark’  during her childhood. Even if it was merely an imprint or not, she had to pay respects to them as she was the sole survivor from House Ordelia.

Edelgard was there as well, possibly in Lysithea’s side for the meanwhile. 

“I guess i start to understand why you hate the crests, Lysithea.” The leader of the Black Eagles only looked at her solemnly. In fact, she was as well, experimented too. The gremory didn’t look but she understands. “I wished not to be born with it. I can’t even live a longer life because of it.” She did bought several bouquets to leave each one to her siblings. Edelgard paid her respects. “If you wish to return to Adrestia, i’ll be in the other side. Take your time.” The leader left as Lysithea only remained but she felt something familiar around the left side as she looked at him. It’s him, she helped his problems at Spirale months ago.

“How did you get here?” One thing she never realized it was merely one of her random memories caused by the fog but it was very real. She immediately hid her bloodied handkerchief, coming from her deteriorating health due to the crests.

The Azai Ruled Omi? Right?

  Hey everyone! It has been a while! As I said previously I’ve been double checking my words and doing research before continuing to post on here. Today I’m back and want to start by talking about my favorite clan of the Sengoku Era. The famous Azai (or Asai) clan of Omi! The famous rulers of Omi right?   Well, not quite. In a lot of modern media it is common to say that the Azai ruled over Omi Province. Unfortunately, this isn’t quite true. Today I’d like to talk about the Azai and what land they did and didn’t rule over. I’m also going to be including brief history lessons on the Azai clan’s three rulers.    First let’s talk about Grandpa Azai, Mr. Azai Sukemasa. Before Sukemasa the Azai had no land to call their own and weren’t what one would consider rulers. However, due to an internal power struggle of the clan he was in he would end up gaining forces and build a castle in the Northeastern part of Omi called “Odani”. Unfortunately, he would soon find himself locked in conflict with the rulers of South Eastern Omi, the Rokkaku. The Rokkaku would prove so powerful in fact that the Azai would be forced out of Omi and seek refuge in Echizen to the North. WIth the help of the Asakura clan, Echizen’s rulers, the Azai would then move back South into Omi and pushed back the Rokkaku. Owing a large debt to the Asakura they re-established themselves at Odani, reinforcing their position and becoming the rulers of Northeastern Omi. So at this point they control only Northeastern Omi, and would also claim ownership of Lake Biwa.   Next came the second ruler of the Azai, Hisemasa. During and after the death of his father Hisemasa was locked into a seemingly endless conflict with the Rokkaku. In spite of Asakura assistance the Rokkaku clan was powerful and Hisemasa was considered a fairly weak fighter and general. Under his leadership the Azai would lose several forts and quite a bit of land to the Rokkaku forces. Fearing complete destruction and not wishing to flee to Echizen like his father before him HIsemasa would beg the Rokkaku to let the Azai become their vassal. While the Azai kept their castle, at this point we could say that all Azai lands actually belong to the Rokkaku. So, leaving this section, the Azai own one castle and clearly don’t own all of Omi.    Finally we have the most famous Azai, Azai Nagamasa. It is not exaggeration to say that leadership skipped a generation of the Azai family line. At a young age, bearing the grudge of his father and grandfather before him, Nagamasa would move the Azai’s forces South with the help of the Asakura. While the Azai didn’t take over much land they did regain all of the land they had previously lost to the Rokkaku forces. The Azai retainers asked Hisemasa to retire, and Nagamasa was made the Azai’s new Lord. This was the absolute peak of Azai land ownership. As most people know the Azai later fell to the Oda and lost all territory when their clan was destroyed but that is a conversation for another time.    The point I wanted to make with this post is that while a lot of video games and anime say the Azai ruled all of Omi, because splitting up Omi is difficult admittedly, this is in fact false. The Azai never ruled more than the Northeastern part of the province.
