#dreamers are believers (kiko)

The Senju medic only pouted more at the Uchiha’s dismissive tone, crossing her arms over her chest.

“Because we’re friends nowwwww? Come on, don’t be a grumpy paint’s like Tobirama!” In a bold move, Kiko stepped forward, a hand going to one of the sleeves of Madara’s shirt and tried to tug him along.

“And you look like you need a positive atmosphere for once!”

[musesofchaos]

"Ahhhh...." The Senju let out in disappointed acceptance. "Don't worry, Mada and Hashi were taller then me, too." There was a slight ache at the thought of her old friends, but she pushed it back, offering a smile to the younger medic. "I've just been admiring how the villages have changed. It's very exciting." She admitted honestly.

"A lot has happened after the war. Sometimes it feels like I can't keep up!" Kiko laughed softly, eyes shining. "I'm very happy that you're entrusted as a head medic, Sakura. I can't imagine anyone else continuing the legacy."

@musesofchaos cont. from here ( new thread for beta switch )

A pang of guilt washes over her as she realizes how rude her demeanor may have been coming across as, and she clears her throat. While she may not be close to the other medical nin, she did have great admiration for the Senju, and needed to act as such.

"No," she answers, a light blush tinting her cheeks. Both of her teammates had grown rather tall once puberty hit, and while she'd managed to grab a bit of a growth spurt herself, it wasn't near as tall as Naruto and Sasuke's had been, and she stood at an average 5'5. "If I had managed to outgrow them they would have had to shrink!"

"What have you been up to lately, Senju-sama?"

at the first half; burr yelled "drew focus". my mind had travelled, in disarray, somewhere between the then and now. My breath was short, and lost.

The night before I had explained to Aly how much it bothered me. How close in proximity we are, yet how far you live. I look for traces of you in a vacant room. Scratches of any kind, fingerprints on the walls, but there is nothing. i still dream about you from time to time. i still look for you here and there. i never understood it. i was sure i had let it go. i had moved on. i had experienced others, i had dabbled with the quest of love until i drowned in a life that seemed to only live in my mind. but moving forward in the last year, moments would occur in real time and i would remember things you would tell me. people i should avoid, people whom i called my friends. at the time, i thought you were overly cautious, but years had gone and i found myself reflecting and empathizing with you. i pray my respects, and hope you'd feel them. wishing i could tell you, you were right. i find myself glued to my brother, the only real love i get to feel. a love that comes with no conditions and no fear. the closest love ive felt since you. im not delusional, maybe a dreamer, but nothing more. My bracelet shattered on the floor of the bathroom again. Part of me felt like I finally had to let you go, that maybe it was time. Time to stop seeking you in spaces you were no longer in. Aly asked me, "if you are over her, why do you look for her still?" Because you mattered, i explained. You were my friend, and I was yours. Before the blind passionate romance, there was love that was founded on common grounds. I couldn't comprehend why we couldn't just at least keep that.

The very next day, there you were, standing on the bench. I couldn't believe it. I had to remind my body to breathe, remind my spirit that I manifested this. I subbed off and stayed on the bench for a bit. and watched you cheer your team. I watched you until i could remember that we are here in the now, and I felt content. I felt content to see you-existing, and being. That was the trace i needed to remember, that you were here, you were loved, and i dont regret any of it. i send you peace and health, and hope to run into you again, even if its from the corner of my eye, or from across a football field. i know the times have gone, but i appreciate you, for all the times you believed in my soul.

"No way, did your heart do the thing" Kiko asked, "yeah it did", "yeah i dont think that ever goes away bro" he said. "i know."

Coach Launches Autumn 2019 Global Advertising Campaign

Coach campaign shows the new global cast in iconic locations around New York City

Coach launched its campaign for Autumn 2019, unveiling Creative Director Stuart Vevers’ new look and feel for the house inspired by a new cast of 21st Century Dreamers pursuing infinite possibilities in the city of New York.

The campaign features faces of the brand Michael B. Jordan and Kiko Mizuhara, as well as a new Coach family that includes Yara Shahidi, Jemima Kirke, Lolo Zouaï, Miles Heizer, and new Coach ambassador Liu Wen. Spontaneous, real and free-spirited, the campaign presents a new thought-provoking narrative for the house while staying true to its unique heritage, values and mission.

To bring the campaign to life, Vevers worked with new Coach collaborators photographer, Juergen Teller and director, Todd Tourso, as well as stylist, Venetia Scott, makeup artist Dick Page, and hairstylist, Christiaan.

“Juergen was my instinctive choice for Autumn,” said Vevers. “He is able to create the warm, unpretentious and playful spirit I wanted. He is known for capturing the unique essence of his subjects and is able to reveal the humanity and authentic personalities of our cast. His portrait of our home, New York City, is new and fresh in a way that speaks to my evolved vision for the house and the inclusive, unapologetic and free-spirited attitude that defines us.”

The campaign shows the new global cast in iconic locations around New York City, including the Lower East Side, Central Park, the Manhattan Ferry, Brooklyn Bridge and Central Park. It spotlights the house’s new Autumn bags, including the Tabby shoulder bag, the Troupe tote and the Rivington backpack, and gives each member of the cast the opportunity to candidly share what drives and inspires them.

The films, directed by Tourso, the creative mind behind Beyoncé’s iconic music videos and films, will be released throughout the season—kicking off with a hero film, followed by a series of vignettes featuring the individual cast members. With poetic narration by Michael B. Jordan and Yara Shahidi, the unique films share the spirit of New York City, inspiring 21st Century Dreamers everywhere to believe in themselves and life’s infinite possibilities.

Kiko seemed to snap back to reality, looking wide-eyed at the female warrior as she grabbed the collar of her coat. "Kuroba..." She uttered weakly, eyes focusing. People were dying, her clanmates were dying. They needed her. Something flashed in the senju's eyes. Gentle obsidian hues turning to cold steel. She had job to do. "Right." Kiko nodded her head, picking up a lost weapon on the ground. This wasn't a time for mercy, this was a time for survival. And no one was going to get her way. Sorry, Hashi... "I better see you back in one peace!" She shot over her shoulder as dashed off, adrenal pumping in her veins. No one else was gonna die. Not while she was here.

They were severely outnumbered, and the older Senju had ordered her men to withdraw from the battlefield and regroup. It was a battle she couldn’t win without letting more of her men die. No, twenty-one of them have already died, and for what? Hired by a greedy landlord. Of course, their opponents were their rivals. They forced her to operate as a one-woman army. That was her next plan to take them all down. Open the Seventh Gate, and if needed, temporarily open the Eighth Gate. She'd die for her men if it meant they lived to see another day. Yes.

Kuroba grabbed Kiko’s collar and said, "I’m in charge here; you do your job and patch up the ones who can still—" For a moment, she looked away as she tightened her grip on the younger Senju’s collar. "S-Safe," she said. Her voice began to break at the end, letting go of Kiko’s collar. Kuroba opened the Seventh Gate. 

"Let it all out; I need you, Kiko."

“So... you fell in love with an Uchiha too?” Well that was an abrupt way to start a conversation. She could already hear Tobirama’s chasting voice, scolding her for being so blunt. 

“I’m sorry, that came out bad, didn’t it?” The edo tensei woman apologized quickly, looking flustered as she tried to avoid the Haruno’s gaze.  

The brunette shock her head, tryna get her words in check before she started sputtering out random babble once more. “What I mean is, I just find it amusing. Y’know? That it seems to have happened a lot?”

It wasn’t all that surprising to be frankly honest. The Uchiha had been graced with divine features, something the Senju woman just had to agree despite the times of war. Not to say that the men in other clans weren’t good-looking, but it seemed like the feared clan had that going for them.

“Ahem- you’re Tsuna’s student, aren’t you?” She continued on, giving Sakura a smile. The familiar warm bathed over her at the thought of the sannin, pride gleaming in her eyes. She was happy with the woman she had become, and knew that Hashirama would’ve shared the same sentiment. “I’m glad that we can have someone like you to carry us medical nin’s work. The one hundred healing... boy, that must of been hard to obtain! Just like her Uncle, never wanted to make things easy.” She chuckled softly. 

[musesofchaos]

Having Kuroba and Kiko thoughts since I’m drawing Kiko’s slug sage form, and I’m just picturing that, after the the war, and the reanimated fighters go back to the afterlife, Kiko just runs up to Kuro like “I punched Madara!” All proud of herself.

And Kuroba is just standing there all proud like “that’s my girl.” Lol @kyuusou

“So... you’re Mada-san’s mother...” Kiko mused softly, ebony eyes wide as took in the... to be frank, quite intimidating woman. She practically towered over her! Well at least now she had an idea of who Madara got his looks from... The medical-nin’s face suddenly brightened with a smile, looking ecstatic as she greeted the Uchiha with a grin. 

“Hello! You must be Naomi-san! It’s an honor to meet you. Madara mentioned you a few times, and said you’re a great medical ninja! Your son’s truly one of a kind, ma’am. He may look scary, but I can tell he has a good heart.” 

[musesofchaos]

Heyo! I wanna do more with my girl, so please like or reblog if you’d like a starter for Kiko Senju! 

[musesofchaos]

Here's Kiko! She was very fun to draw and I honestly love her so much already. She comes from Madara and Hashirama's era, and was a medical-nin of the Senju clan. She's been friends with Hashirama and Tobirama since they were younger (platonic/sibling relationship), and hoped that one day the clans could be able to live in peace, side by side. You can read her bio here Still editing it here and there, but I hope ya'll like her :)

“Awwww! You’re so cute!” The senju squealed when she saw the tiny reindeer, bending down to his level with a bright smile. “Hello there! You most be the visitor everyone was talking about. My name is Kiko, I’m one of the head medic’s of Konoha! It’s so nice to meet you! I heard that you had some medical knowledge too! What’s your name?”

[musesofchaos]

Kiko picking up Sakura and Daria proudly like: “Everyone look at my nieces! Aren’t they badass? :D”

[musesofchaos]

it's not entirely about that. - Madara to Kiko

Kiko blinked at the Uchiha, the medic tilting her head in curiously.

“Oh?” She’d inquire, turning round fully to face the man. Having to tilt her chin up just slightly. “Is there something you needed to ask me, Mada? What is it?”
