ok there you go bam.

Those memories remain amorphous, lingering at his peripherals their potency fluctuates between gentle, gossamer threads reminiscent of the full moon’s luminous silver and harsh dissonance of demolition as it eradicated the last vestiges of that once resplendent dream. His bare feet walk a solitary path between the tenebrous sky punctuated by thousands of scintillating stars and the village below where voices chorus mellifluously heralding his arrival. Effervescent joy compels his gait forth, eager feet gracefully ascending over jutting rocks and verdant foliage until he stands before the precipice overlooking the lambent light emanating from a fire below. It was always initially clumsy, the transformation from four paws disturbing fallen leaves as he careened through the undergrowth and onto two feet, fingers splayed against old, furrowed bark and tracing it reverentially as he reoriented himself. Yet the night was in its infancy and the festivities would persist until dawn’s golden radiance chased the last vestiges of darkness from the sky and how fervently they would dance until their souls ached with the prosperity they evoked in him. When he stares amongst the cubes of ice eroded by a listless tide of amber liquor he can almost recall what it felt like to feel the dirt beneath his paws and the enticing breeze ruffling his fur. It was a preferable deceit, the longer Ki surrounded himself with their degeneracy the more he realized that these were not the same humans who had supplicated him for abundance. their avarice was insatiable, grotesquely stuffing their mouths with their chosen vice until they grew corpulent. as he observes them, pouring another drink, the coalescence of complimentary colours twisting into something morbid, he has to remind himself that hunger is but another emotion he was capable of repressing. This bar was the sort of sordid establishment that showed no courtesy to its transient patrons, one hideous visage wouldn’t be missed within a sea of similarly vile, nondescript humans. That was why he allowed it to accommodate him, filth incongruous to one who had once been so dignified, debased until he was nothing more than an egregious stain on that once pristine life. As long as he could survive in the bowels of that city ━ he would do whatever it took.

Character name: Aki / Ki Age: unknown. hundreds of years. he looks to be in his mid to late twenties. Species ( ? ) : he was a harvest deity who took on the original appearance of a fox but now, after being stripped of his divinity he only has his fluffy ears and tail, these are often hidden behind a glamour. He is no longer able to take his divine form, it’s been all but lost to him. Job: he works at a bar run by questionable people, it’s often the location for discreet dealings both with other supernatural entities and humans. he acts as an intermediary between his benefactor, their underlings and the rest of the world. the bar serves as a place for meetings, reunions and often deals in death. he owes those people a great deal for offering him an inconspicuous way to continuing living after a run in with some exorcists and thus is seemingly loyal to them and acts in their best interest. Personality: sharp witted and incisive he’s quick to adapt to any situation, however, his mordant sense of humour and lack of patience when it comes to foolishness have often led him to bicker with the bar’s patrons. despite this his actual personality seems rather ambiguous, most of the time he’s relying on an effortless facade to steer him through interactions with others. It’s hard to recognize the once innocent and gracious god he had been centuries ago. most often he complies with his benefactor’s ambitions and has found that his personality has become more malleable the longer he’s been stationed behind that bar serving a vast variety of clients.
