His smile rises, bearing his fangs as eyes look nearly hallow despite how Akaza is anything but. One hand waves, deliberate and emphasized. “Hey you! You’re the flashy slayer, right?” His smile sharpens to a grin that looks like it should pierce his skin despite the durability of a demon’s flesh. “Do you think I look flashy?”
tengen turns on his feet quickly, he focuses on the sounds that ring throughout the air. his swords are immediately being pulled from his back now resting into his hands with a tight grip. it's not unusual for demons to be chatty or talk but he's caught a bit off guard with the question. fuchsia eyes scan the demon up & down before he shakes his head. “ no. demons will never be or look flashy to me. ” the sentence practically comes out like a growl. not giving the same ‘ friendly ’ energy back.

i don't know what i'd do if you weren't here. / hi
those words bring a smile to the man's face, considering how their relationship started off. but he finds himself becoming close with the younger one. despite it all, she has showed tremendous strength & has proven to be very flashy in his fuchsia eyes. he can't help but drop a hand into her hair, ruffling it gently. then removing it a few seconds later. “ well, it's a good thing i'm not going anywhere, isn't it ? so you'll never have to worry about that. ” he hopes that it is a promise he can keep, after having a brush with death many times, it's not easy to say things like that but he does anyway.
tengen had never found himself worthy of living, given his past & what he's done but he's working on forgiving himself, his wives make sure of that. he's glad he's still here, he has things to live for, people to live for. he'll continue to fight & be there for his family & live for not only himself but for them too. “ you'll always have a home with me and the girls. ” he can't forget to mention his wives, they had been a big help to @kaminarikokyu too.

the hashira is known to talk quite a lot, he's always talking or boasting about something. which is partially why he got along so well with kyojuro but as he's come to know that not all of the hashira's are talkers. which is why he's used to having conversations with himself, mostly him initiating the conversation. though, he has come to like just being in their company, even if it’s not reciprocated on their end. “ i still think you should wear some jewelry, iguro ! you are already flashy but why not be even more flashy, hm ? ” there's a snap coming from his fingers as he got an idea, speaking again quickly. “ we could even get kaburamaru a little bedazzle ! ”

no one else could have done what you did.
the inferiority complex inside him suddenly is flaring up, he knows where his strength lies. now often he thinks of what it would've been like if he hadn't done the mission, what if someone else who was stronger had done it. would they have suffered with the injuries he's suffering with or would they have come out mostly completely unscathed ? the white haired man shakes his head. “ no … ” he whispers out before a sad smile pulls at his lips. “ there were others who could've done what i did … but better. ” despite how he may look to others, he may look strong but tengen has never felt like it. it's not good that he compares himself to others but how could he really not with the position he's in now.
it's not anyone else's fault but his own that he feels this way. he tries to hide himself, tries to mask his pain for others sake & to not have others give him pity. but the pain is now being so visible, he doesn't try anymore. “ i appreciate your kind words @lotusgrieved , just having trouble believing them at the moment. ”

❛ you did the best that you could. ❜
truthfully, he's angry. disappointed. he feels like a failure, which technically he is. the former hashira lets out a long exhale, frustration bubbling up slowly. ( he is so tired of hearing that stupid phrase ). “ my best wasn't good enough as you can clearly see. ” tone getting snappy & with his only remaining hand, gesturing down to his eye, the scar still being visible through the eye patch. before beginning to gesture to the missing hand. “ if i was at my best … this wouldn't have happened. ” they're disgusted with themselves, sometimes just looking at himself is enough to make him want to cry.
tengen felt useless to put it simply, he still had so much fight left in him, he wanted to fight. the man had always put an abundance of pressure on himself, often comparing himself to his fellow comrades. wishing he could be as great as them or to have their strength. he knows it could've been worse, he could be dead. but he's still here & now he doesn't know if that's any better. the white haired man looks away from @mizukokyu. “ i do not blame you if you think i'm a failure. i see how the others look at me ... they think i'm a failure. i can see it. ”

“ the girls told me you were out here … i'm surprised you came to visit the god of festivities !! ” the older man says with his usual boastful laugh, rumbling from his chest with his arms crossed ( even though it's more so like one arm ). his wives did mention that the zenitsu looked a little sad coming here but he's never been good at this kind of stuff, often using his humor or just ignoring what's bothering him. so he's sure he won't be much help but he surely will try. studying the younger's face, he gets serious.
@kaminarikokyu / starter call.
“ they also told me, that you wanted to talk to me but we don't have to talk about what's wrong if you'd prefer not to. ” he offers. “ if you just need me to be here for you, then i can do that too. ” a hand goes to rest on her shoulder, an attempt at comforting. tengen knows that her & the rest of her friends have been through so much already. he wishes they didn't have to go through so much pain, so much weighing on them & their minds.

the weather is warm, a nice breeze flowing through as the white haired sits next to the dark haired man. his fuchsia eyes admiring the other's face, studying it, noticing the glow from the sun bouncing off his face. he had always known that he was beautiful, probably more than he'd want to admit but something about him today was different. zoning out, his eyes once again tracing every feature as he stared with a small smile forming.
@mizukokyu / starter call.
a finger reached out to touch giyu's face, unaware if the other man had been speaking to him the whole time or not, from the zoning out. the finger reached his face, tracing across his cheek. “ you're so beautiful, you know that ? ” he says suddenly & in a whisper like tone. “ you always are but today … something's different. i can't quite put my finger on it. ”
