"No cake or 108 candles," Nat chuckled kissing him softly and handing him a box from a bakery he liked.

"Just a kiss and a cupcake." She knew better than to make a giant fuss, but little things wouldn't be challenged. He was a lot like her that way.

"How's your day been so far?"

[ask-robokasa-and-rui]

Lore Post//

Rui please!

I just wanna talk to her…

You look like you didn’t have your morning coffee!

I just wanna talk to her…

The only people who should know about Robokasa should be me, you and the people that went through his making!

I don’t really care, It’s not like I’ll go “Oh Airi! Tsukasa is alive! Aah!” Because he’s not! I just want to hear her side of the story and her experience with Tsukasa.

What if it just…spills out?!

Minori, calm down…I don’t even think she’ll talk to me like a normal person…

Rui co-HEY WAIT!!!

Rui and Minori run to the back of the diner.

Meanwhile, Airi and Shizuku were walking away from the diner

Ah, what a day it was! We have to come here again someday, those doroyakis were so good!

Bad news, it’s going to be on air. So our fans will come there to find us. Meaning? It’s less safe for us now…

Ah…you’re right…we’ll have to get wigs to disguise ourselves…

You think those will work?

Miss Airi!

Huh?

Airi and Shizuku turn around to see the people back at the diner running at them.

Can I have a minute with you!

Oh, those are the ones from the diner...!

Let's get out of here...

Airi takes Shizuku's hand and walks faster, faster than Rui's running.

Wait-! Sigh...they're getting away...

Rui come oooon...Is it really that important?!

It is for me! I want to know more about the human and real Tsukasa! If she was his friend, she should know a lot.

Rui...

I'm going after her!

Fine!! I'm going back to Kanade then!

Gotcha!!

He says, as he runs to where the two idols went.

Airi and Shizuku had to part ways in case those "people from the diner" are following them. The place Airi stopped by was in front of a tech store, it was eerily quiet and empty. But that was fine.

Finally...I'm alone...And-

Miss Airi!!!

-?!?

Please wait! I just need a minute to talk!

Oh holy another crazy obsessed fan...

I just need a minute!!

Airi didn't listen and started running-

No...Do-!! DO YOU KNOW WHO TSUKASA TENMA IS?!

-until she stooped. She looked back at Rui with a look of surprise.

Y-...You...

Airi charged at Rui and gripped his neck as she pushed him against a wall.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT NAME!?

Agh-!! Y-You kinda said his name during the interview...!

I ONLY SAID HIS FIRST NAME!!! HOW DO YOU KNOW HIS LAST!?

I can tell you if you stop choking me...!

Fine.

Airi lets go of Rui

Gah-! Cough cough!! Thanks...

Now what do you want.

Cough! I want to know more about Tsukasa.

Know more? You already know him?

Ah-...No, I-I only heard of him...and I was curious...

Curiosity led you to follow me around?

Yeah okay I know Tsukasa...

How?

I ...I can't tell you...

Then how am I supposed to believe you?

I....This is going nowhere...I have to tell her if I want her to believe me but-

Well?

-I can't tell her about the robot Tsukasa! What should I do...

Okay...I'm leaving-

Fine. I'll tell you but...please don't freak out.

Hm.

Rui takes a deep breath...

Months ago...I found a robot in a junk yard, the robot's name was Tsukasa. And a few days ago, I learned that the robot Tsukasa was based off of another Tsukasa...a human one...one that died. And well...Robot Tsukasa doesn't have great access to his memories yet....So I want to learn more about him!

Rui said before he put his hand on his chest. Airi was looking at Rui with a look of surprise, then she laughed.

Ahahaha! Yeah right! Tsukasa? As a robot? Can't get more ridiculous.

I'm telling the truth!!

And I don't believe you! Later.

Ugh...

"Rui! There you are..."

Huh?

Rui turned around to see Tsukasa. Airi did the same which made her stop.

It's getting late! Why aren't you coming home?

T-...Tsukasa...?!

Huh?

Airi and Tsukasa made eye contact.

Uh...this is akward. Tsukasa-

Rui looked into Tsukasa's robot eyes. Rui always compared Tsukasa's robotic eyes with eyes of puppets and porcelain dolls. But the seconds he looked in those eyes...they looked....real. Like a human eye.

Airi...?

Said a raspy voice. Both Rui and Airi flinched at the sound, only to realize it came from Tsukasa.

Is that you....?

T-Tsukasa...No!! I left you, Asahi and Haruka!! I won't talk to you!!

Airi...Airi!! Do you hear me?! AIRIII!!!

Tsukasa pushed Rui away and ran towards Airi.

IYAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Airi screamed in terror as she ran away, Tsukasa following her from behind.

T-Tsukasa!! Airi!!

Rui ran after the two.

As Airi was running, she got cornered in an alleyway. Tsukasa was coming near. Her eye caught a knife on the ground. She picked it up, pointing it towards the approaching robot.

Airiiii....!!!

GET AWAY!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE PLEASE!!!! I'M SO SICK OF THIS!!!!

AIRIIII!!!!

I DON'T NEED TO HEAR YOU OR HARUKA'S SCREAMS ANYMORE!!!! STEP AWAY OR BE GONE!!!!

AIRIIIIII!!!!!

DIEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

Airi charged at Tsukasa with the knife, Tsukasa still approaching her. Meanwhile, Rui found the two and ran in the alleyway.

Airi-! Tsukasa-!! Both of you!! Calm do-AAAGH!!!!

Rui let out a pained scream. A horrendous pain spiked in his stomac.

A knife.

The knife Airi was holding, aimed at Tsukasa, went through Rui's body.

A...A....

Rui collapsed. Falling in front of Tsukasa.

Kamishiro...

Tsukasa said. Rui could hear pain in the voice, and slight anger. The last thing Rui could see was Tsukasa charging at Airi. The last thing he could hear was Airi letting out a blood curdling scream.

There's a pause, as he takes a moment to think back to those days of his past when nothing in the world mattered to him more than absolute power, he shoved everything else to the side, but all for what? A fever dream where he believed the world would be perfect if he was this all-powerful figure who stood above everyone else.

Looking back on all of that now, if he did actually complete his selfish mission, what would he do next? The truth was, he didn't know. Now he did, it had taken him a long time to realize it. But all that power he had carelessly thrown his life away for? In the end, he would have been wearing a crown of dirt, King of nothing but utter regret --- he would never let anything blind him anymore.

[{ 🗡️ }] - "I was never this cold unfeeling, monster. I just chose not to. But now, all my smiles, are genuine. Admittedly, it's still an experience I'm getting used to." After that bit of reflection, his expression suddenly becomes serious.

Robo's eyes widen with a few sparks upon seeing the Angel right next to him, a bit surprised as he rose a brow at the cross necklace "Y-You know could get i-in trouble wearing that 'ho-holy shit' down here, If I-I were you I'd turn it upside down Mister~" Robo teased, spinning his head upside down when he said before going back to normal with a slight smirk, not noticing any angelic features yet as they sat there.

The Strength Of Self Preservation

@electricea || Pre-Plotted

Minato had been in deep thought ever since he heard what had happened to Ryuji in the past, he had apparently dealt with not only bullies, but Kamoshida had played a major part in him getting hurt. A broken leg wasn't something that happened often in a track and field setting. Back in his own high school days, Minato had spent some time dabbling in several different clubs until he found a mainstay club in the form of Kendo Club. Track and Field was something he had committed a good two months before changing to the aforementioned club. During his time in Track and Field, he didn't understand how a broken leg could happen when it was all basic stuff, it just didn't add up.

So when he finally found out that Kamoshida had been the one to send his little bully hit squad, Minato was disgusted, how could a human being be so god damn vile? Not only that, harassing Ann only added to the anger Minato had for the teacher--he was nothing but a disgrace to adults everywhere, he was glad the Phantom Thieves took his heart, even though he had been affected by the change, it didn't mean Minato would change his view on him. He only hoped the rest of their high school experience would actually be peaceful now.

Thinking it over, Minato made a decision, and it was an important one. Due to an event of his own back in his high school youth (though his situation in that moment paled in comparison with what they had dealt with), that time in the back alley of the train station when him, Junpei and Yukari encountered some troublmaking punks who had bad intentions while looking for answers, had led to the confrontation that ended up with his best friend Junpei getting a punch to the gut. If it hadn't been for the arrival of his late upperclassman, Minato and his two friends would have ended up in a very serious situation--from that moment on, the fool had made the decision to learn self-defense. If he or his friends were ever in danger again, this time, he would be able to protect himself and anyone else with him, eventually becoming a blackbelt in two fighting styles. Muay Thai and Japanese Karate.

To prevent the young man from ever getting into serious trouble again, Minato was going to train him in the very same styles he knew. To set this up, Minato had sent a text directly to Ryuji asking if he wanted to come visit him in his Tokyo home residence. He didn't specify, just said it was a hang out, his plan would be a surprise.

Contact: Ryuji Sakamoto. [text]: Hey, Sakamoto, you free today? If you are, wanna come hang out at my place for a bit? I can come pick you up?

Minato had received a text back about twenty or so minutes later, he said he was up for it. He promptly texted back and made his way to his car to pick him up. The driver there and back to Minato's place had only taken about half an hour since he had taken side streets to get to and from a lot quicker, especially with weekend traffic on the main routes. Once they were at his place, the fool led him inside.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Welcome to my humble abode, Sakamoto, make yourself at home. This place is western style, but I'm gonna ask you to please take off your shoes for now, we'll come back down and chill out in a bit, but for now, come check this out."

Leading the young man upstairs, walking through the hallway, they pass five doors before he brings him through a sliding door at the end of the hall. Opening the door, Ryuji would be met with a large floor matted dojo with a city wide view from the windows as natural light illuminated the dojo, there were two sets of training gear already waiting for them, a padded body guard, a pair of head gear, foot gear, and fighting gloves sat in the center.

Stopping in his tracks, he turns around to face the young man, he was probably wondering what was going on, so Minato would gladly explain.

[{ 🦋 }] - "You're probably wondering what all this is for. Well, I'll be honest, I heard what happened to you man. As bad as it was, you were lucky only ending up with a broken leg, things could have been much worse. While we are still gonna hang out after. I brought you up here for a reason."

Taking off his black sleeveless vest with scary writing on it, he hung it up. Now in a dark blue tank-top showing off a bit of his physique, he turned back to the blonde.

[{ 🦋 }] - "In case you ever end up that type of situation again, I'm going to personally train you in Muay Thai, when I'm done with you, you'll be able to defend yourself in any given situation."

Sera had never wanted Philza do those things, but she had to do what was necessary. For the greater good.

She remained unmoved, narrowing her eyes down at him. On the surface, she appeared eerily calm, but she was sure he was close enough to see how her mouth twitch, and glowing outlines of her numerous eyes flashed for a mere second.

Both Sera and Philza seemed to not have heard or outright ignored Emily's plea. The younger Seraphim frowned, her concern turning to outright frustration.

She suddenly flew up and got between them, pushing them away from one another before things could get ugly.

"ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME!?" She exclaimed, her gaze darting between both of them.

Philza gasps softly as Emily pushes them away, he had forgotten that the younger angel was here.

"Forgive me, Emily," he apologizes, "I...got carried away,"

He looks down at Emily now, hands folded, eyes soft, and smiles, giving her his full attention. He remembered when Emily first came into creation and he could only assume what she's heard about him. Deep down, Philza hoped Emily wasn't scared of him.

"What were you saying, little one?" he prompts gently.

Her manicured fingernail trailed along the spines of countless books, leaving a path that spanned most of the authors between 'S' and 'T'. Halia tapped her fingers instinctively on the shelf where the book she was searching for ought to be, each of her fingertips making a sharp noise as if to punctuate her annoyance with a perfect tap. With a sigh she looked around and her eyes eventually settled on the only student within whispering distance. "Excuse me, slim. Have you seen Catcher in the Rye? The librarian said they had it in, but it doesn't seem to be on the shelf..."

I'm very tired of this "queer college students should stop supporting Palestine, they'd kill you there!" I watched a hijabi ask a trans man, "but what name do you want to go by?" A butch giving a woman their hoodie so that she could keep her hair covered after the cops took her scarf. Muslim girls making sure the lesbian couple got through the system together. Religious men making sure purple haired protestors got out safe. I don't want to hear it. Solidarity forever, free Palestine.

"Good boy." {Charlotte}

Send me "Good boy/girl" for my muse's reaction to your muse saying that to them!

That.. was not something he had expected to hear from her at all. Of course, he knew he was blessed with good looks and all - or perhaps cursed in some cases, considering his near addicting scent - and he knew that that could create some situations as it had done that several times in the past, but oh boy was he not prepared for this. He couldn't let that show though, could he?

"Thank you." He finally spoke, his lips forming a wry smile as he looked upon her - deep green eyes studying her for a moment looking for, well.. anything. "Pray tell, what did I do to deserve such praise from you?"

"I don't see you complaining about it. Actually, it seems it's pretty much the opposite." Ubon grinned at the comment, ever so slightly pressing her knee between her lover's legs, against the very obvious bulge under the fabric of his pants. Of course, she knew what she was doing when putting on that specific outfit for their date, along with that specific lingerie underneath it, she knew what would happen if she were to theoretically 'accidentally' drop something and bend to pick it up. And she most definitely knew that it was going to work on Hayoon like magic. "Now, though, are you going to show me how much you missed me, hm?"

Verse: "Panthera Tigris"

--

~Clang, clang, clang~

They couldn’t stop. Ceasing their fight would have meant defeat. No matter how hard the chains scraped against their skin, no matter how painfully the friction bit on their wounds, they kept resisting, biting, growling at their weirdly-shaped capturers.

I don’t want to die, they repeated in their head over and over, 'I don’t want to die in a cage. I don't want to die a prisoner, I don't want to, I don't want to...!'

They persisted all the way, rebeling and thrashing around with every last drop of energy still in their system, though not violently enough to hinder their jailers from dragging them through those empty halls. Miele had been caught off-guard by the group of fracciónes, an event which was suspicious in itself —the Arrancar, whose hearing could detect events from miles away with great precision, couldn’t possibly not hear the footsteps of so many individuals getting close enough to capture them. And those hollows must have known that, because for some unknown reason their feet wouldn’t touch the ground, and their movements seemed to have been made completely silent by some device attached to their vests. They had come prepared.

~Clang, clang, clang~

The group of hollows had to stop several times before they finally made their way to a tall, narrow door with little to no decoration —much like the rest of Las Noches. Through their pained writhing, Miele could hear the words “Master Szayel” and “Queen”.

“I have no master, you dogs! These walls bear no authority! Ugh-ghh! Let me go —or kill me, I care not!”

As they finished lashing out their curses, the door in front of them finally opened, and before they could react, they were thrown inside an enormous hall, bigger than anything they'd ever seen. The so-called Sand Cat, who had been covertly roaming the desert of Hueco Mundo for years undetected and unbothered, was now on their knees, their limbs bound, on the floor of Aizen’s fortress.

Mielelambda averted their eyes, unable to bear the sight of that giant space as a veil of shame suddenly creeped up from their back and shoulders, and gritted their teeth as they were presented by the fracciónes as a "soon to be test subject" to an unknown figure on the other side of the hall.

@caramialunaestelle inquired: 👙 a beach party (From Power)

Since he had been assigned to special unit four, bit by bit, the team had begun to make more impressive devil-hunting progress. Together, the group had completed a whopping two hundred missions, another new milestone. This group had started off with a ragtag group of misfits, another half-devil in the form of Denji, and the final addition being the Blood Fiend, Power, who was probably their wildest member, although Denji wasn't too far in that regard, either.

To top it off, there was also the human devil hunter Aki and his longtime work partner. Himeno, Vergil, was the most recently assigned member after a trial to see how well he would mesh with the others, and it had all worked out. He had even managed to help make sure Power didn't act up in the spur of the moment--something she had done often during earlier missions, while she still had her moments, there were significantly fewer incidents than usual.

To celebrate this new milestone, instead of a get-together at a restaurant and bar, this time Makima had allowed a Beach Party event, which did make sense since it was summer now. This beachside party sounded fun, and in his opinion, much better, too. Vergil hated being around drunk people, regardless of whether they were a colleague, ally, or friend. The party had been going on for over an hour now, but there was still a lot of party left before it would be over. Everyone was having a great time so far, currently donning blue and white swimming trunks, Vergil had been reading a book under a beach parasol as he sat in a beach lounging chair, shirtless, but his blue jacket with the sleeves hanging loose was draped over his back and shoulders like a blanket. At some point, the beach ball had come spiraling towards Vergil after a hard hit from Denji.

"Yo, Vergil! Heads up!"

That was all he heard before the ball zipped directly at him, but Vergil was always on guard, even at parties like this. Enemy devils certainly wouldn't wait for their party to end if one were to show, so he never dropped it, even when there was no clear sign of hostiles or danger. The half-devil had been expecting the ball to fly towards him, so when it did, he simply raised up his arm, and the ball went right to his forearm, his eyes never left the pages of the book, so he had no idea how much strength his had put in his arm, the second it bounced off his forearm, it zipped directly to Denji, smacking him in the face.

[{ 🗡️ }] - "It's you're own fault for not paying attention." He called out, the kid would be fine, it was a beach ball, not a volleyball.

As Vergil settled back into the pages of his book, it wasn't very long before he was interrupted again, this time it was Power. She was questioning why he chose to sit in the shade and read at a beach party. Blue eyes shifted off the book to meet Power's gaze. He had a feeling someone would ask him, the blood fiend just happened to be the one who had done it first. she just asked in her own way.

[{ 🗡️ }] - "Why am I reading at a beach party? I wanted to finish this book, but we've been so busy that I haven't gotten the chance to finish it yet. Perhaps I'll join in after that, but only once this novel is finished, the ending is getting rather interesting."

[{ 🦋 }] - "Babe, I'm home!" He announced after stepping through the door, closing and locking it behind him.

Minato had just gotten back home after a long guest appearance on another podcast. This one in particular had been one that he listened to and watched whenever he had time. The podcast was called Into The Shadows, and it was hosted by a woman named Nora Blackwood, a goth model who was a fellow paranormal enthusiast. She often covered a majority of different news of the occult, some things that hardly any other paranormal-themed podcasts talked about, and she did her own research. Such dedication was impressive, which made it one of his favorites that he liked to tune into. It had been a nice podcast; she had asked a lot of good questions related to Paranormal Quest's early versions, including a lot of questions about his first investigation in the Round Schoolhouse, a notoriously haunted location in Japan. She also asked about Vivi and how the two of them met, a story he always liked to share.

Upon his return home, he was quickly greeted by Vivi, like he always was. Coming back home after any kind of busy day, coming back home was his favorite part of the day, since he knew Vivi would always be there waiting for him, whenever she didn't have any Paranormal Investigations of her own. As soon as he joined her in the living room, Vivi reached out, placing her hand on the small of his back. In return, he places a hand on her hip.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Looks like someone missed me, huh?" He playfully teased.

[{ 🦋 }] - "I wasn't gone that long, was I?"

It's not long before he tugged him closer by the fabric of his blue coat, pulling him close enough until his towering frame was flush against her body, his second arm moving to loop around her, now in a loving embrace, he put their foreheads together gently leaning against hers. A soft content hum in her arms. It was moments like this that he loved so much. Vivi was never shy about showing her love and affection for him--and he was exactly the same when it came to his blueberry life partner in spooky.

A long, happy sigh escapes him in the warmth of her embrace.
