sunday thoughts: frankly mina's boobs are so nice to put your head down on. she also wears the strap in the relationship. ten is a fucking freak. okay bye

[huntskaiju]

❝ well, sir, i’m sure if anyone can face off against number nine, it’d be you. ❞ reno shrugs. narumi’s preening and gloating is annoying, sure, but it’s not like he hasn’t earned it. they’re distinctly aware of this fact; legends like ashiro mina and hoshina soushiro and narumi gen are what they strive to be, after all. admitting that is easy, because it’s true——

( he knows he’d been too weak to protect iharu or even himself. it’s embarrassing, sure, but above all else—— it’s frustrating. he resists the urge to lift a hand to one of his scars, the undeniable proof of no. nine’s existence. his hands clench into fists anyways.

somewhere deep down, no. six purrs in agreement. reno tries not to think about it too hard. )

❝ and if not you, then probably kikoru. or kafka? ❞ —— and because he can get under narumi’s skin this way.

a wise guy, huh? the kid goes up against an identified kaiju and thinks he's hot shit, huuuh? well, there's no denying that it definitely does provide some bragging rights — there's only a small handful in the defense force who could say that exact same thing. but narumi stands just as straight, a smirk absentmindedly forming at the mention of kaiju no. nine.

❛ you're afraid of no. nine? that's fair, you are still a rookie, after all. and the report mentioned that kaiju really did a number on you and your friend. ❜ eyes narrow at the memory of the enemy, looking almost inhuman in the light. ❛ what i wouldn't give for that monster to appear one more time.. oops, guess i shouldn't really be wishing for something like that, huh? ❜

( this is basically just a very self indulgent list of various fluff, angst, and suggestive themed dialogue sentence starters. )

❛ i could keep you safe. they’re all afraid of me. ❜

❛ i’m trying to fix your hair, so hold still. ❜

❛ your heart is beating so fast right now. ❜

❛ promise me you’ll still be here when i wake up. ❜

❛ you’re not as bad as everyone says you are. ❜

❛ i thought you’d like some company. ❜ 

❛ clean yourself up. you're getting blood all over the place. ❜

❛ here, give this a try and tell me what you think. ❜

❛ you can kiss me, you know. ❜

❛ come back to bed. ❜

❛ you look good like this. ❜

❛ working together again, it’s just like old times. ❜

❛ how is it you always know what i need, huh? ❜

❛ you’re lucky you got away with only a scratch. ❜ 

❛ i can’t imagine losing someone like that. i’m sorry. ❜

❛ you know you can always talk to me. ❜

❛ the only one who gets to kill you, is me. ❜

❛ so, what do i owe this pleasure? ❜

❛ ah, so you aren’t heartless after all. ❜

❛ may i have this dance? ❜ 

❛ it’s okay, you can touch me. i won't break. ❜

❛ enemies make the best lovers, you know. ❜

❛ hold still. this might sting a little. ❜

❛ we can't keep doing this. ❜ 

❛ you look like you've got something to say. ❜

❛ just relax and let me take care of you. ❜

❛ thought you’d be lighter without all that blood. ❜

❛ i had it under control. you didn’t need to do that. ❜

❛ everything looks so beautiful from up here. ❜

❛ you treat all your ladies like this? ❜

❛ well? how do i look? ❜

❛ can’t sleep? ❜

❛ do you mind if i smoke? ❜

❛ i’m scared of ending up alone. ❜

❛ i don’t think i’ve ever seen you smile. ❜

❛ how long has it been since you've slept? ❜

❛ you are losing my interest, and that’s very dangerous. ❜

❛ i’d suffer hell if you’d tell me what you’d do to me tonight. ❜

❛ you look really pretty right now. ❜

❛ i’ve never cared for anyone the way i care for you. ❜

❛ i’m not wearing any underwear. thought you’d like to know. ❜

❛ just a few more stitches and you’ll be as good as new. ❜

❛ i’d say we make a pretty good team. ❜

❛ i want you to forget this ever happened. ❜

❛ i'm here for business — not pleasure. ❜

❛ if i didn't know any better, i'd say you were jealous. ❜

❛ you'd look better down on your knees. ❜

❛ fine, keep acting like you hate me. ❜

❛ kiss me again. ❜

❛ are you asking me out on a date? ❜

❛ just sit there and look pretty and let me handle this. ❜

❛ you okay? caught you staring off into space again. ❜

❛ well, i do feel better now that you're here. ❜

❛ i'm not drunk enough for this. ❜ 

❛ why is it whenever we see each other, you’re covered in blood? ❜

❛ i was wrong about you. ❜ 

❛ the first time i met you, i had no idea you'd mean this much. ❜

❛ you gonna be a good girl / boy for me? ❜

❛ i’m not afraid of you. ❜

❛ books mean more to me than people anyway. ❜

❛ i just wanted to say thank you for protecting me. ❜

❛ how about a kiss goodnight? ❜

❛ i don’t have time for distractions right now. ❜

❛ you shouldn’t be out here by yourself. ❜ 

❛ if i have to think about one more thing today, my head will explode. ❜

it's not that he's embarrassed about getting lost—— it's inevitable, in a base as big as ariake, but—— well. maybe he is. reno flexes his hands, a motion that's become more comfortable and more grounding over the course of his training, and stands up a little straighter. at least they've been saved by a familiar face, they think with a little bit of relief. ❝ it's good to see you, sir. i didn't realize you were also called here ... it feels like an impromptu reunion for the third division. ❞

[huntskaiju]

❝ i've been blessed with incredible talents and opportunities; i'm constantly surrounded by love and praise; but when you're placed on a pedestal like that for so long, you become separated from the people that put you there in the first place. everyone assumes i'm too good for them—— that i'm on a level that they simply can't attain. it's become impossible to form any sort of meaningful relationship with people. that's what i like about you: when we met, you didn't even know my name; you treated me like anyone else. and thanks to you, i've made friendships that will last a lifetime. i guess, you're the kind of guy i wish i was here with—— someone who just saw me for me. ❞

[huntskaiju]

i deleted my post about it but now im seriously thinking about how so many of the jakdf soldiers are willing to turn themselves into monsters themselves in order to defeat kaiju. narumi and his eyes; kafka and his transformations; hoshina and his suit- but i think the one who is most susceptible to this line of thinking is reno.

while he has iharu there to smack some sense into him sometimes, reno is always thinking about how to get more power to protect the people he loves. that's why he's so susceptible to no. 6's influence when he puts on the suit, because more than anything- they're both aware that the power it can give him is second to none, and something reno sometimes can't refuse. he has 100% slipped and allowed no. 6 too much control over his mind and body at various points in training and on the battlefield. he's constantly training for more, more, more because he believes it will never be enough.

𝙲𝙾𝙽𝚃'𝙳 𝙵𝚁𝙾𝙼, ft. @rt0001.

it's undeniably true, reno supposes. they're all here for a reason, whether it be heroic or selfish in nature, and even now, against unimaginable odds ... they haven't left yet. a normal person would have turned tail and run, wouldn't they? yeah, no one in the defense force would even dare.

still, reno can't quite find it in himself to concede so easily, especially after hearing all of kikoru's stories. and the thought of giving her another reason to gloat? pass, thanks. ( huh, no wonder she and narumi are such good friends. ) ❝ captain narumi, ❞ he says, back straight and hands hands crossed behind him, ❝ i went up against kaiju no. nine. with all due respect, sir, i'm probably be more afraid of that monster than i am of you. ❞
