#C: Sen

[ursanazyalensky]

Ursa had heard it through the grape vine that a bounty hunter had come crawling into town. The old gunslinger knew there was still a bounty on his head but in the years that had passed, he had hoped it would just go away. If it was any other week, he might have just up and left town for another job until the heat died down but with the murder's he knew it would look suspicious. While he didn't know who the bounty hunter after, it was always good to be cautious until he found out.

He had been able to avoid him for a few days before they came face to face in the streets. He greeted him with a tip of his hat. It was better to be polite then reach straight for his gun like his fingers itched to. "You lost, sir? I can point you in the right direction if you need it," he asked.

They didn't miss the suspicious glance but Lian pretended like they didn't see it. There were only a few clubs in Hedon and Lian knew none of them had a good reputation. And for good reason, Vicium might have been on the top of the list when it came to sins. That kind of sin had to be sickening to a deity like Sen. "Yes, most likely," they answered. "I work at Vicium."

Lian wouldn't be offended of what they thought. Sen could assume all he wanted but he would never know what their job entailed unless he visited. One sin didn't have to outweigh the good deeds, just like their charity work would not erase the chaos they had caused. Once their coffees were ordered, Lian waited patiently, glad to have something else to fill the silence between them.

They both knew that the other wasn't a human. Lian had known but they could pretend like they didn't for the moment. The deity's words were cryptic enough for anyone listening in but Lian knew exactly what they meant. Most crime in the city ocurred at night. There were more deaths here than normal and the life expectancy of the residents was a little too high. It was a strange city indeed. "It's an interesting city with all sorts. It's unfortunate that they don't always get along," they said, sighing like it really was a shame. "Luckily there's doctor's like you who can make sure those injuries are dealt with. Even in the darkest of cities, the sun will rise in the morning and chase away the shadows."

Sen narrowed his eyes slightly. Not out of suspicion, but to inspect the person before them. A club in Hedon. That could be many, but he knew of a particular one that he avoided as much as he could. He was aware of its presence and had been invited to scope the place out, but the atmosphere and the slick, jarring emotions were too much for the deity to grit. Ayumu's brothel was more than enough for him. "Hm. One I might have heard of?"

However, it was rude to assume that they were the type to frequent such a place, let alone oversee it. Hedon was a strange area with many strange businesses and stranger residents. He smiled and ordered his drink after them. A plain black coffee and paid one forward for the person behind him. Despite Lian's assumptions of his so-called charity, he wouldn't stop his routine.

He stood next to them as they waited, and the close proximity had him curious. He wasn't the type to feel around for answers, but something about them struck many bells that they weren't just a regular human. He caught their searching gaze, and it was obvious they also knew him to be too different to be human too. It was always a dangerous game to play with unknowns. To reveal true identities or let lie. "I am an ER doctor at the Garond Hospital. I work overnight normally." He paused to grab his coffee, ignoring that their coffee was ready too. Playing too nice seemed to be a losing gamble with them. "Out of all the emergency rooms I have worked at, nights usually tend to be a hit and miss in terms of busyness, but here, it's odd that most injuries happen at night and on strange locations of the body. It's almost as if there is a darker side to this city than its shadows."

Ways of being a father. (Kengan dads & child!reader)

I wrote this almost a year ago, originally with Blue Lock characters assigned. But I thought a lot about assigning Kengan characters so here we go! The quotes are all translated from Alligatoah's song Nicht adoptiert. Also! The song may originally be about being born into a family and not being adopted, but reader can very much be seen as an adopted child in this if that's what you prefer!

gn!child!reader (reader is implied to be different ages in different parts)

If you're listening to this, you're alive, congratulations / I always knew you'd become more than a broken condom

Let's be honest, you weren't planned. Being a father initially wasn't part of his life plan, but then you happened. But he wouldn't replace you for anything in this world.

-Adam, Raian, Lihito, Kanoh, Ohma

Cause I don't believe in marriage you were born a bastard

-Ohma, Raian, Adam, Hatsumi

Sure, we love you, but there's a reason for that, kid / Nature arranges it like this so we won't kill you

Sometimes being a father can be frustrating and exhausting. But no matter how annoying you might get, his fatherly instinct always wins. In no way would he ever intentionally do harm to you.

-Ohma, Kanoh, Kazuo

It looks like you're family / Looks like it's just us now / We've got to get through it now, blood's thicker than beer / [Sorry, you ain't adopted]

-Adam, Kanoh, Hatsumi

I have no idea how to take care of children / But don't worry, I'll find a tutorial

He went into fatherhood completely without knowing what to expect. It all came a bit out of sudden for him, and he was too anxious to prepare himself properly. But when he held you in his arms for the first time, he knew he'd figure it out just fine.

-Lihito, Inaba

The good thing is, I don't even have to share any knowledge with you / You can just read the wiki entry

-Saw Paing, Lihito, Kanoh

I won't always be there for you, I have to party hard too / Did I say "party"? I mean "work"

Being a father doesn't mean that's the only part of his life now. He'll try to be there for you whenever possible, but there will be moments when he gets lost in other things.

-Saw Paing, Lihito, Sekibayashi

Joking aside, the ego-pig in me is happy that you are coming / Cause then I can play with Lego blocks

A part of him is still a child as well. And hey, being a father means he gets to play with toys again - that's something he can look forward to.

-Cosmo, Saw Paing, Inaba

Cause even though I'm putting effort and thinking about how / I can take the pressure off and still get you into bookstores / Something I do will lead to trauma, c'est la vie / I'll be the star of your psychotherapy, have fun

As careful as he is with you, he knows at some point he'll do something wrong. He's perfectly aware of how he won't always be the perfect father, but he's still trying his best.

-Raian, Kazuo, Wakatsuki, Suekichi

You're programmed for me, I'm programmed for you / Now we're sittin' here, I say now we're sittin' here / Sorry, you ain't adopted

He didn't choose to have you as his child, and you didn't choose him to have as your father. But still, you're perfectly made to be this role for each other.

-all of them.

You may not become president or student representative / Reality will throw your dreams in the chick shredder / I know what I'm talkin' about, life ain't no show

You won't achieve the greatest things in the world, and that's okay. You don't have to do that to make your father proud. He knows exactly what it's like to fail, and that's why he will always encourage you to reach your dreams, no matter how big or small they may be.

-Gaolang, Kazuo, Suekichi, Setsuna

You'll see my burdens, I've given them to you / If you think your genes are bad, they're Papa's genes / But you're my update, you can fix the bugs

You may not be a carbon copy of your father, but the similarities are undeniable - both the good and the bad.

-Ohma, Setsuna, Kanoh, Raian

In the beginning it's ambition like in a chess duel / You will emulate me until you outshine me / The balance of power is on my side - currently / But your chance is good, because Papa's withering parallel like a leaf

Being his child also means being his rival - in a fun way. If there's something to compete in, there will be playful competition. Board games, soccer in the backyard and running random races when you're just walking somewhere together - things like that.

-Raian, Koga, Saw Paing, Lihito

This has to come out now 'cause later I won't be the same / When you're around I'm sure I'll write some corny shit / No more tasteless jokes, no more Hitler comparisons

He was more of an immature person before, but he knows after your birth he has to become more serious as a father - at least that's what society expects from him.

-Lihito, Raian, Naoya

I stand in front of the mirror and see a caricature / But I train every day for my father figure / I practice "La-Le-Lu" on the keyboard / And I subject myself to a motherfucking radio censorship / And I learn all the movie clichés, after birth / You'll get a wristwatch with your name engraved on it

At first, knowing he'll be a father soon felt so unreal to him. But the closer the day gets, the more the realization sets in. But that realization makes him nervous, so he's putting extra effort into learning how to be the best father he can be. And even though he doesn't want to be "like the other dads", he finds himself following every cliché possible.

-Kazuo, Sekibayashi, Adam, Suekichi

Even though being strict clashes with my liberal nature / I'll pretend I'm interested in your Spanish exam

He doesn't care how much of a good or bad student you are, but he knows you'll have to pass school somehow. As much as he doesn't care about your grades, he pretends as if he does to keep you encouraged. But of course you'll get praise for your hard work when you get good grades.

-Ohma, Kazuo, Lihito

I'll be mad at you for every adolescent booze story / But don't be afraid of me just because I fuck your mother

-Raian, Lihito, Adam

I'm just an old cynic who writes frustration poems / But I swear I'll give it all to you till the end of my chapter

He'd do anything and everything for you. He will always make sure you feel safe and loved, no matter what age you're at. Even when you become an adult, he will always be your father and protect you as good as he can.

-all of them.

genuinely baffling that people listen to c!dream going “oh I hate tommy i don’t care about him he is nothing to me” and think “oh he hates c!tommy and wants him gone” when his LITERAL WHOLE THING is that everything he claims to hate or not care about is like his BIGGEST ATTACHMENT. if c!dream is randomly bringing up “i don’t care about x” then x is something or someone he cares about to the point of unhealthiness, that’s why he’s all like “no i hate them” because he recognises that they can be used to control him. if in random situations c!dream brings up hating or not caring about something it’s because he’s trying to convince HIMSELF he doesn’t care. unless you think he actually doesn’t give a fuck about spirit or his friends like he does the exact same thing and people who recognise the first two are a lie go “but uwu he clearly doesn’t care about c!tommy he’s just a pawn in his schemes” YOU KNOW THATS HOW C!DREAM TALKS ABOUT SHIT HE ACTUALLY DOES FUCKING CARE ABOUT??? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS

Halloween was one of those times of the year where Lian didn't have to play a part. Their disdain and anger could be on display and it was just part of a costume. Unfortunately, it was still held at their place of work and they had to representive of the club. One of the few perks that Lian had working at Vicium was that they knew all the tricks and games that had been set up for the Halloween party. They had even helped with the set up. Lian had been doing well to avoid the mayhem of the night but not everyone was so lucky. So far, they had taken a backseat to watching the prominent figures in the community run straight into that mischief.

They had watched as the deity had been split in two and, whilst they were curious about what mayhem the evil side would get into, they ran straight into the other half. Stumbling slightly in the high heeled boots, they put their hand on the bar to steady themselves. "We need to stop running into each other this way," they replied, trying to hide their annoyance. Last time Lian had already made a bad impression and they didn't want to do that again. "Are you enjoying the party?"

Sen was beginning to feel a little silly in his straw hat and red Hawaiian shirt as he surveyed the crowd. He didn't pay much to the invitation to Hedon's annual Halloween event, mostly because it was ran by those who were...well, vastly different than Sen. He had planned to sit it out like he did the Spirit Party, but as a councilman, it was imperative that he at least showed his face in public at least a few times a year.

So, here he was showing his face at one of the bar stalls and sipping on a light ale, becoming increasingly uncomfortable in one of his split bodies. He could sense his other body, the supposed bad one, not too far away, and the thought that Sen had a mind of his own made him self-aware that he could slip up and find himself in a predicament. He was just about to go search for himself when a figure stood in his way, causing him to crash into them. He stumbled back with a sweet, apologetic smile. "I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention. I hope that didn't hurt."

Rikyū, 1988, Kōichi Satō

In this poster for the 1989 film Rikyū (about the 16th-century tea master Sen no Rikyū), Satō creates an aura around the central motif of a bowl of tea with gradations of vibrant color. Rikyū was associated with wabi-cha, a style of tea ceremony characterized by simplicity, restraint and an austere beauty. Satō’s image of a single raku-ware tea bowl – a highly prized tea-ceremony vessel made from clay fired at a low temperature – is accompanied by a poetic text that translates as ‘beauty is unwavering’
