Urashima Kotetsu ; Touken Ranbu Online ☆ Orange Rouge

[mamuzzy]

I hope the new series will raise the popularity of Souza Samonji. I need that sad courtesan on my shelf to non-stop judge me 24/7.

sometimes i see a date and know its significant but can never remember if its like. historically significant or i have something planned or if its an anniversary or if its someones birthday (whose? someone i know personally or a celebrity or a character?) and it doesnt help when i add goroawase to it

[firefighting-idiot]

Me playing tkrb: Oh okay, so that kanji combo is heavy cavalry, got it

Me in Japanese class: Oh, we're learning the kanji 重い, which is HEAVY CAVALRY

wouldnt it be fun if hiden being replaced by youden implied that the touken, now obviously stronger and w more kiwame amongst them, travel back in time to their own citadel pre-mikazuki-betrayal period and change the outcome of the loop and in a sense alter history ,which is against their very nature, all to save a very treasured companion...? but then that would implicate changing the collective fear that made everyone strive to become stronger, perhaps even reversing all the character developments, leaving manba's potential untapped. they would have to weigh that against the pros of getting rid of all the corrupted historical figures (nobunaga, ryouma, kuroda,etc) all of that, again, to save a very treasured companion. i so very hope suemitsu-san taps into the moral anguish part of that. if thats the track youden takes.

For my last assignment of Charles Hu’s “Figure for Entertainment Design” liveclass at New Masters Academy, I referenced the first TKRB musical. Partly because the costumes are elaborate, dramatic, and great for shape design. But also because these characters were part of the darkest years of my life and they live in my heart forever.

Iwatooshi and Mikazuki stood out as the best candidates for this exercise. In the musical, Iwatooshi has very strong & directional silhouettes; I had to stop myself from drawing him so much because he was such a great reference. In contrast, I liked drawing Mikazuki because his poses were very graceful and flowed really well; there were a lot of s-curves to explore in his design.

Unfortunately I struggled to choose references for Kashuu and Imanotsurugi. They are some of my faves, but their silhouettes were less readable in this particular musical.

watching the 2nd live action tkrb movie and... mayhaps getting some yuichi Ideas (again) !! mayhaps i'll do some thinking after it's over

... i've had a general, vague type of idea for his ... "how he became saniwa" but this might help me figure out some of the specifics and gaps in how to get to that point from having been like. Just Some Guy...... stay tuned maybe

package day! with my usual assistants

very thin box today, barely a mochi wide, since (almost) everything was an acrylic stand or otherwise flat

tl;dr hyped-up 02!! tkrb!!! mimakura!!!!! PSYCHO-PASS!!!!!!!!!

hyped-up 02 was the only thing that was actually meant to be in this order but then of course to “make shipping worth it” (lol) i added a bunch of other beautiful beautiful nonsense

random tkrb magnets? why not (still haven’t seen enough to know who my favorites will be so i just lmao GUESSED)

more mimakura stands? they’re beautiful so into the cart they went

and a whole bunch of megane fraud incident (and kou) to start my psycho-pass collection!!!

this little chibi gino acrylic was hell to find i would’ve gladly paid like twice retail (maybe even more) but it wasn’t just that there were no reasonably priced listings, there were no listings full stop (my own fault for missing the pre-order window i know but man)

but i found him in the end!! after a long search during which i impulsively bought a bunch of other stands (thank u providence for coming out at such a good time and flooding the market with new merch)

very happy with this haul, i’m really starting to like acrylic stands even more than figures (cheaper + more variety + most importantly SAVES SPACE) and will probably... not stop buying them anytime soon lol

non-based traumaposting incoming [tw dissociation, derealization, depersonalization]

I just realized why losing memories and dreams were such a common theme in my TKRB fics. Well, it's because I have lost so many of my own memories to severe trauma. Not an organic brain disorder, mind you; I don't have early onset dementia or anything. It's just really bad dissociative amnesia, worse than I ever acknowledged.

There are whole years of my life missing. It's been getting worse for a while and I just ignored it, thinking this was normal. I knew trauma could make you forget what happened or numb you to those sensations, but now it's catching up to my present life too, and it's so terrifying.

Yesterday feels like it happened years ago; this morning could have been months past by how it feels. The days go by so fast, and they all blend into one another, yet they also feel so long. By the time I go to bed, I've forgotten most of what happened in a given day. Even taking notes in a journal doesn't help me. I look back at my notes and it's like none of it ever occurred to my brain. Nothing's encoding because of how badly I'm dissociating at this point.

It's terrifying to look at old pictures of myself and not even recognize where I was or what was happening at a given point. I have to use context clues (oh I'm holding up a present, this must have been Christmas) or even look at the metadata to figure out where a given place must have been. I don't remember why I thought it was important to take that picture; I don't know how it felt to be in that moment. I can't attach any feelings to any of these experiences.

I am basically living in a dream all the time. I feel more real when I'm asleep than I do in my waking life. It sounds so bizarre but I often feel more conscious when I am lucid dreaming, more involved.

And this is such a silly thing but it hurts so much for that dissociation to eat my passions too. As soon as I lose interest in anything, like TKRB, it's like it never mattered to me at all. I can't capture the feelings I had when writing a story or talking about it: there's not even any nostalgia, any lingering happiness, nothing.

Total blankness, total apathy. I can't picture the characters in my head, I can't play out those scenes again. They are just words on a page, pictures on a screen. They don't mean anything to me any more. And I hate it.

I want to feel nostalgia, but I can't and I never have. I am not nostalgic for any period of my life, or any media I used to care about, or any projects I once had. Because I can't hold onto those feelings anymore. They slip away like they were never even there. It's like my past life has dissolved and I become a new person every day.

I hate being like this, and I hate that I'm like this because of what other people did to me. The abuse I went through as a child literally broke my brain. I know that many people who go through therapy can re-access those memories and feelings, but I'm so scared that when I start therapy, I will be one of those cases that never gets anything back. That I'll just slowly go completely insane and not even remember who I am.

My future terrifies me, my past is gone, and my present is so empty. I'm not in crisis or anything, I won't hurt myself, but I am just so scared. The deepest fear I have ever felt in my life. And the worst part is no one can really comfort me about it or reassure me that it's going to be okay.

I think I've cried more in these past few days than I have at nearly any other time in my life, even the worst times. I'm feeling literal decades of emotion at once. I just want to curl up in a ball and hibernate until it all resolves itself, but I can't, I have to keep going. And that's the worst part.

When I made characters feel these things, I could always give them a happy ending. But what if I can't do that for myself? I don't know if I can. I want to, so much. But it might be beyond my powers and that is just devastating.

Tsurumaru Kuninaga ; Touken Ranbu Online ☆ Orange Rouge

[mibuswolf]

      #MIBUSWOLF is a tkrb themed multimuse written by quinn. All muses on this blog are set in the universe of touken ranbu, however verses will be available for other media that I find interest in. THEMES PRESENT ON THIS BLOG INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TOO; Acts of Violence, Blood and Gore, Sickness and Death. (will be updated if need be) 

FEATURED MUSE: Okita Souji BLOG ROLL: @curmoritor, @noxcomnia, @thalassofiles, @godvity, @snowladened Check my other blogs for rules.

Full muse list under the read more.

PRIMARY.

Okita Souji. She/Him. Eternally 20. Saniwa. 5'1. Pansexual. Government Aligned, Revisionist, Whichever side she thinks is funnier at the time. Chaotic Neutral. Stuck outside of time. Souji is a famous historical japanese figure that ended up slipping through a crack in reality causing him to now exist outside of it. While she can easily influence and even interact with the events that happen through various time periods, she is never able to leave and impact on people that allows them to remember her once she leaves. However, at some point, he was able to manifest the tsukumogami that existed inside of the swords that he held dear to him. Because of this he is now able to involve himself in the events that happen between the time governement and history revisionist. However, he doesn't really have strong opinions on the history of japan at this point, so he usually does whatever he thinks is funnier or would cause greater problems.

Kiyomitsu Kashuu. Any pronouns. 100-ish. Tsukumogami. 5'5. Pansexual (AU Dependent) Default; Following Okita Souja, Secondary; Government aligned. You know? I don't know what his moral alignment is. You don't get to hear his backstory because he'd rather die (again) then relive it. So, don't ask.

Yamatonokami Yasusada. He/They. 140-ish. Tsukumogami. 5'5. Pansexual (AU Dependent) Default; Following Okita Souja, Secondary; Government aligned. Chaotic Neutral. He may be cute, but he WILL kill you. So, he is like Okita 2.0 but worse because he isn't human and will play even more recklessly with his life.

Yoshimitsu Hakusan. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'0. Pansexual Government Blade, Works closely with Nagayoshi Yamanbagiri. Neutral Good. Is capable of healing allies. Don't even get me started on him. He acts like a robot because of the things the time government did to him. He's incapable of taking care of himself properly and often faints from exhaustion. He has a small fox that he thinks is a communication device, which it half is, but it also yips and squeals every time he faints to get peoples attention. He's a mess, but he's a very well put together mess.

Gou Matsui. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'8. Bisexual Government aligned. Neutral Good. Vampire-like. Would you like him nibble on you? You should.

Kawakami Hisoka. He/Him. 22. Saniwa. 5'2. Homosexual. Original Character. Government aligned. Originally was a neutral party. Neutral Good. College student. Originally found a rundown and abandoned citadel and accidentally brought the swords there back to life with a power he was unaware he had, but after sometime the time government became aware of his presence and made him an actual Saniwa, much to his demise because he is trying to get through his STEM courses at college and does not have time for this. Yet, he tries his best because he loves his swords more then anything.

SECONDARY.

Sadamune Taikogane. He/they. ???. Tsukumogami. 4'11. Bisexual Government aligned. Neutral good.

Toushirou Midare. Any pronouns. ???. Tsukumogami. 4'11. Pansexual Government aligned. Neutral good.

Toushirou Namazou. They/Them. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'2. Pansexual Government aligned. Neutral good.

Yukimitsu Fudou. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'0. Homosexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

Masamune Hyuuga. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 4'11. Homosexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

Yukimitsu Fudou. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'0. Homosexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

Kunihiro Yamanbagiri. He/They/It. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'7. Bisexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

Ichimonji Nansen. He/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 5'8. Bisexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

Masamune Kyougoku. She/They. ???. Tsukumogami. 4'11. Bisexual. Government aligned. Neutral good.

i love that they finally grouped the swords by colour in touken ranbu but i would debate some of those categorisations tbh. i dont care they did it for number balancing. what do you mean akashi is pink

[firefighting-idiot]

I couldnt resist the half price Uguisumaru figure on Mercari. It is such a steal and since I have more room for figures, I can have a dedicated Genji/Kobizen shelf

[mousouchuuu]

moving accounts is the worst
