Oh snap! 2 more boys are showing up to the party! The blue-haired boys, Cale and Rowen! Cale is my all-time favorite from the series, so I had to put him in that top. If anyone is curious, he is holding his sword.

Realization

Summary: Sage finally figures out where the POTS came from. It was as he feared.

Rowen sat up groggily trying to figure out what all the movement was about. He reached for the one curled up next to him expecting for Cye to be trying to get up and get to the bathroom without getting sick first. His hand dropped to the other's head and he gently strokes the soft hair trying to see if he was awake or not, "Cye?" His voice was soft as he blinked his eyes a few times trying to get his eyes used to the darkness so he could focus.

Once his eyes focused, he looked down and saw Cye was still fast asleep. He got a slight moan from the smaller one and tried to put him back to sleep, "Shh it's okay. Just go back to sleep…" He trails off looking around the room, he knew he heard something move.

His Ronin Warrior instincts were kicking in as hair stood up on his arms, he took a deep breath closing his eyes and his armor orb appeared in his hand. He clenched it tightly before uncurling and pulling himself to the edge of the bed as carefully as he could.

With one hand he unwound Cye's arms from his waist and stuck a pillow between them instead. He got up and walked around the room silently before hearing more movement.

His eyes narrowed as he followed the noise into the hallway. He closed the door behind him before calling his subarmor in a dull blue flash. "Alright - whatevah you are, you bettah make yerself known before I blow you back to where ya came from."

He walks into the living room and stares wide eyed.

A green hue had engulfed the room and the halo armor orb floated projecting thoughts visually as if he were experiencing it at the same time. There were scenes from the final battle with Talpa and scenes that he'd never seen before, they must have been Sage's memories.

Talpa's face appeared on one of them, "Once we drain your power and energy, you will be unable to fight. I look forward to seeing you unable to fight back, Ronin Warriors. Once the spirit's spell reaches your souls, your life force will begin to dwindle and little by little it will put out your life."

Rowen shivers at hearing the evil emperors voice and had to remind himself that it wasn't real that Talpa was dead. He swallows nervously glancing over at his friend.

Sage was on the floor in a meditative pose, eyes closed as he concentrated. Rowen glanced back to the scenes watching some of them replay over and over again.

"Your life force will begin to dwindle and little by little it will put out your life."

Another scene appeared, "Even if you escape, you may never have the power to call your armors again. The armors will be mine in the end."

"Torrent has no more strength, he has no more will to fight. Look at your friend and how he gave into my spirits, the armor of Torrent is now mine. You two will follow suit then I will take Strata and Wildfire next."

The point of view had to be from Sage, Cye was in the corner of his eye and didn't look ok. He hung limp from his arms, head hanging, he was pale and seemed to have no life in him.

Rowen felt sick to his stomach before he shakes his head pulling his attention away from the visions and scenes. Why was Sage doing this to himself? He takes a deep breath before walking over and kneeling beside his friend, he reaches out nervously and places a hand on the other's shoulder, "H-Hey buddy…Sage?"

He winced at the movement expecting to get hit or shoved aside. It was always a gamble on how Halo came out of his meditative state and usually whether or not, he thought you were Kento.

Instead he heard heavy breathing as the blonde pulled himself out of it. The green hue in the room disappeared leaving them in silence and darkness.

Rowen sat back breathing hard as well, "…w-what the hell was that?"

"I know where his POTS came from."

"Yeah, his mom?"

"NO. No. It's not his mother. I mean it could have made it worse.. But …Rowen, it's not that. He was FINE before the battles with Talpa right?! Even after Sarenbo and the White Armor, he was just tired but he was fine. It only hit after the final battle with Talpa, right?"

"Well yeah Sage but…"

"Don't you get it?! Did you see the visions?"

"It was kinda hard not too, buddy.. It was just there."

"What Talpa said. He stole Cye's life force. What if Cye never got it back."

Rowen blinks before laughing nervously, "Sage what are you talkin' about? Look it's late, you had a nightmare about being held captive.. i-it's all over and-"

"Rowen, Cye's POTS came from Talpa. It came from the torture Talpa put us through."

"No, that's not …it can't be…"

"It all makes sense. You're right, I had a nightmare about being held captive but what my memories told me started to make sense… his body viewed the aftermath of being tortured as an auto immune response. That's why there is no proof or solid pathway to how he got this bad. He never had it, his body didn't make it worse."

"But Cye's mother has POTS. It's an official diagnosis."

"Right, but he never showed any symptoms before that, right? Even Sayako said that Cye usually followed their father health wise. Their father didn't have any autoimmune disorder."

"S-Sage, you're reachin'…" Rowen's heart was beating quickly even if he said this. The other warrior had a point and he didn't want to think about it. He sits back, his hand gripping his shirt as his mind started to race. "I-If that's true… w-we could have…have prevented it… if we could have not been kidnapped or saved you guys faster…if Ryo hadn't of called the White Armor while we were in the Dynasty…"

[rgartblog]

The rest of my Sailor Ronins and my girls all on one post!

These were made up when I was 12-13.

So “cringe”? Absolutely.

But I’m proud to finally get them on paper.

In my version, Torrent is the leader of the girls. She and Rowen get together. Sailor Strata and Ryo get together. Otherwise., Kento and Cye get together and Mia and Sage 😂 even at a young age I knew the true couple had to be made a thing.

[samurai-skittle-squad]

Another one for Boys of Summer! I used a prompt from the discord this time, stargazing. A prompt basically made for Touma.

[superwavesmasher]

More of the hurt arm idea. Episode 23.

Rowen and Cye are a thing.

Kento is protective annoying best friend doing what he does best.

Rowen also apologizes for snapping at Ryo.

“Kento, you don’t have to carry me bed…I can walk.” Though he made no move to pull away, he sighs groggily holding his arm close to his chest, his head resting on the other’s shoulder as he’s carried up the small set of stairs in the lakeside cabin. “Besides, I’m not even tired and-“

“You were falling asleep on the couch and your arm is hurting.” The bearer of hardrock was a gentle as he could be as he carried the smaller warrior up to the room where the rest of them were sleeping. “Who knows, maybe even Ryo will join us up here now that White Blaze is feeling better.”

“Oh, that would be lovely… five of us and a tiger…?”

“Hey, Blaze could keep ya warm. If not the tiger, we could always ask Ryo.” Kento offered as he flicks the light on with his elbow. He walks over to the bed that Torrent and Strata was sharing and as gently as he could laid Torrent down on it.

“Rowen does just fine, thank you-” Cye groaned in pain as his arm was jolted. He was left breathless as he tried to relax feeling the bed moving.

“C-Cye? Did I move you too fast?”

“I-I’m a-alright…I’m afraid any movement hurts…” He offers back as best he can, his eyes clenched shut.

“Ok, Sage said to put a pillow under your arm so it can hold the weight instead of your body. Do you want to try it?”

Cye opens his eyes to see his friend staring his way looking terrified that he couldn’t fix it. He sighs forcing a smile as best he can, before he’s forced to close his eyes again. The burning sensation was back and hurt a lot.

Kento sits on the edge of bed as gently as he can so he doesn’t jolt the smaller warrior, “I’m here.. I’m not leavin’ ya. At least until your boy friend gets here. I can’t believe I got beat out by space boy…”

“K-Kento…”

He looks down grinning, “I just gotta know one thing, Cye… does the curtains match the drapes?”

“KENTO! What kind of question is that?!” Torrent growled blushing bright red. “…a-and I wouldn’t know…”

“What? Really? Nothing juicy to tell me? No midnight romps in the closet?”

“What kind of stuff do you watch in your private time?” Cye raises his eyebrows laughing weakly. “Some hentai nonsense?”

“Maybe… I don’t know… just thought you may have had some fun.”

“Kento, when have we had time? We were both injured right after the fight with Talpa, then I got injured again with my arm… not mention the fact that you and I share a room. I believe this outing to find the swords was the first time he and I had been together like this.” He cries out as his arm is lifted in mid conversation onto the pillow. His friend wasn’t rough by any means but any touch hurt right now. ‘W-What t-the bloody hell was that f-for…”

“Your arm is up where it needs to be.” Kento grins giving double thumbs up. His smile drops off at seeing a few tears escape as his friend tries to catch his breath and ride out of the wave of pain, “S-Sorry dude.. I moved too fast. Do you want me to remove the pillow?”

“D-Don’t touch it… p-please… it really hurts.”

“I’ll leave it be. …man, let me go get Sage. He can help take your pain away.”

“K-Kento, don’t bother…bother him…” Cye opened his eyes to see Kento was already gone.

*~*

“Hey Ryo..uh…. I wanted to apologize about earlier. Ya know with what I said about you not joining us to fight?” Rowen offers awkwardly as he joins the other out on the small porch attached to the house.

“Oh…no. You were right. I would have just gotten everyone hurt if we had gone for a planned attack.” Ryo leans forward on the railing looking out into the lake. “And now I have the ferver swords and my tiger has been possessed by a different tiger.”

“It doesn’t seem to be a bad thing. Sage said he didn’t feel anything bad… Blaze had all of his memories and treated us all how he did before.”

“What is that supposed to mean?”

“He treats each of us differently in our way…its weird.. but if you watch closely you can see it.”

“Are you ok, now?” Wildfire asks glancing over.

“Me? I’ve been fine.”

“You’re about as bad at lying as I am. You’ve been worried about Cye fighting while his arm is injured. Sage kind of explained a little bit of it yesterday… you were upset that you couldn’t trust me to keep everyone safe.” He smiles weakly sighing before looking up at the stars above them. “Not that I could blame you… I’ve been kinda suckin’ at that recently.”

“You haven’t done too badly.”

“Cye’s not ok is he?”

Rowen sighs shrugging, “Who knows. The injury is left over from Sarenbo. When he tried to break the White Armor up, each of us got injured. Sage, Kento and I healed from our injuries almost instantly. His left arm is still badly injured. Sage has looked at it and there is no visible injury that is consistent… it will be covered in bruises one day then the next it will just be swollen… regardless, he can’t move it without help.”

Happy Birthday, Hiroshi Takemura!

Today the Japanese voice of Touma/Rowen turns 69.

[ciaossu-imagines]

For day 16 of the event, I used number 38 from prompt five for the Ronin’s from Ronin Warriors! These were fun to think about, just something mundane but that really does make you stop to consider the characters and I hope you’ll all enjoy, my lovely constant readers!

What is the colour of your socks?

Ryo would be barefoot all the time if he could. He likes the feeling and comfort of going barefoot and finds socks a little uncomfortable. When he does end up wearing them, he much prefers lower socks, just above the ankle or at the ankle, and they have to be made of a natural fabric and fit well.

Rowen actually has a lot of socks. His mother started giving him these really outlandish socks as gifts, things she thinks are fashionable or cool looking. They’ll be neon coloured or have funky patterns on them. Some will be toe-socks. He doesn’t really like them, but Rowen can’t bring himself to throw out anything that can be used, so he wears them nonetheless, mixed in with the more standard black ankle socks he prefers. (As a fun side note, his mother also does this for underwear, so he definitely is wearing duckie boxers at some point in the show.)

Cye honestly just wears whatever socks his mother buys for him. He doesn’t really do a lot of clothes shopping for himself, trusts his mothers tastes, and is fine with whatever. He tends to prefer either white or coloured socks, mostly in pastel shades. He’s another one who does like to be barefoot as often as he can be too, just because he feels like his feet get itchier while wearing socks than they do when he's not wearing socks.

Kento actually really loves weird socks. Any socks that are super bright, have fun patterns on them, or are just unique enough that they won’t be in every single guy’s wardrobe? He loves things like that, and he purposefully seeks out those kind of socks, unlike Rowen who just has them forced upon them. While they were living together, Kento definitely stole some of Rowen’s socks and stretched them out, because Kento has much wider feet so now he has some new socks he didn’t even need to buy. He’s not that picky about how the socks fit (i.e.: ankle socks, high socks, etc.), just as long as they fit.

Sage is pretty normal in his sock preferences. It’s very rare he doesn’t wear them – he doesn’t wear them to the beach or with sandals but other than that, he has socks on most of the time. In colder weather, he’s definitely the type to wear socks to bed. He prefers cotton socks or socks that are moisture wicking, as his feet tend to sweat quite a bit so breathable fabric is a must. He prefers plain colours, mostly white or black and he prefers for his socks to come up to about mid-calf. He dislikes wool socks, even in the warm weather though, as his feet always sweat worse in those and they stink after wearing wool socks.
