Open Starter

Muse: Nao

Open to: Demons or other muses of that sort

Plot: Nao had been given to your muse as a sacrifice, but instead of begging to be let go like one might expect, they straight up tell your muse to just kill them.

"If you're going to kill me, just do it now." After all, they've seen, experienced, and felt first-hand, death would be a blessing in disguise. Even if Nao tried to fight, tried to find a way to escape, they couldn't erase their memories and all that had happened. They didn't care anymore. "What are you waiting for?"

[r3dblccd]

The other's touch sent tingling across Nao's body. They could feel the fingers on their skin, on the spots that not that long ago they had been wounded. They could still clearly feel the point where they had been struck, even though they had more or less healed. That was one thing they feared, that they could never get rid of that damn reminder of how stupid they were and all the pain they got in return for that stupidity. Fuck around and find out, the saying went, and so they did, and regretted it immensely. But Woojin's hands were so soothing on them. There was at least one good thing about this whole ordeal.

"Not that. You know what I mean." They let out a small sigh--- And then they were facing him. God, they were in it now. "Obviously, with your physique." But they did look away. Because they were currently praying to not get a fucking boner right here and now and embarrass themselves even more.

Woojin's hands were gentle as he ran the scrub along Nao's back. Their skin was so sensitive still - at least, that's what Woojin assumed. It was hard to forget all of the wounds that they'd had when he found them; that was something that would stay in Woojin's mind forever.

Gently, Woojin steered Nao under the spray to rinse the suds off of them. "What do I have to be nervous about?" he countered. "There's nothing in this world that's more powerful than me. Nothing stronger, faster, smarter-" He paused, snorting at himself. "Well, okay. Maybe smarter. But still." Woojin turned Nao by the shoulders so he could see their face. The blush was so pretty on those cheeks. "Besides, look at me. I have nothing to be ashamed of."

"Who's Hotter?" Trans Woman of Anime and Manga: Commemorating a Trans Woman Being Elected to the US Congress

[ahogedetective]

"O-OH MY GOD, OKAY, OUMA-KUN, YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION!!! How many times are you going to do that?!?"

[r3dblccd]

: ̗̀➛ @lichtgrau; continued from here

The angel's face flushed completely at the comment. It was simple and short, but the impact of those words was immeasurable. Did they appear a little too eager? Perhaps trying their best at holding back their desires for so long wasn't much of a great idea, after all. It wasn't like all the other angels were all that pure either, Nao knew. But they just had to be stubborn, as if they could prove something. Now look where that got them, now it was making them act like an idiot!!! But Nine had no fault in that, he was just following what his heart was telling him to, it was just Nao being the overthinker. And even now the other had some supernatural patience despite the opportunity finally being in his hands.

Nao's thoughts shifted as the fox's lips moved along their skin. They let their touch wander on his body too, a thing they were once hesitant to do before, but now were more comfortable doing. And here their mind stumbled for the first time in forever, as Nine was kissing them and suddenly there was one knee between their legs, which were quite fast at closing on their own to give his leg a slight squeeze and a soft quiet sound escaped their lips.

[r3dblccd]

"And you keep acting in a way that's unfitting for someone in the presence of an angel, mind you." Not that he minded it, and they knew pretty well they were basically encouraging that kind of behavior from the fox with the head pats. Perhaps, in a way, the angel was looking forward to it more than they liked to admit. They pulled their hand away when they were called attractive. Nao never saw themselves like that honestly, for a bad day they felt like a monstrosity and pretty basic on a good day, never the first, always the last pick. It felt a little embarrassing to be seen as something more. "You still being here already says a lot." Nao usually tried to keep their distance, to keep to themselves. To have someone stick around for so long was a big step on itself. "If you say so."

Nine was faking a pout: "You keep calling me so many rude things, yet you seem quite content with my company. However, it is quite attractive, you know? That is just how it goes, we are always especially drawn in by those who seem so hard to get." Oh, the fox did not feel discouraged, by any means, this just made it much more interesting. He leaned in, giving them an innocent look: "If you give me a fair chance, I'm sure you'd enjoy it." Not that anything would chase him away now, it was too much fun and interesting to simply give up, Nao would have been quite ... convincing to really make him stop. Flirting with somebody saying they did not want it the best if convinced there was a level of interest. "I'm quite adaptable,y ou know?"

[gravi0la]

Ok so we got 100% confirmation that Insaneduo's pick is a brazillian - Now I'm truly curious because it appears they both discussed it, so it is probably a mutual friend of both Cellbit and Forever's?

Does that make anyone come up to mind? Alguém sabe?

😠 ANGRY FACE — how easy or difficult is it for you to express your emotions? if you find it difficult, what do you think is holding you back?

IN CHARACTER CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT QUESTIONS || Accepting

❝My emotions? I feel as though I don't struggle much with expressing most of them. Whether or not they are interpreted by others correctly . . . is more of the challenge. I won't deny I my demeanor can come across somewhat subdued, but I am not a child. I don't see the reason for overdramatized responses to things.

There are few situations that I find myself struggling with due to how infrequently they arise, although I am almost always able to overcome them.❞

@divinezenin asked: oi nori ... i didn't know you were fooling around with yuta

Annoying. "I didn't know my personal affairs were the business of the Zen'in clan. Neither he nor I are promised to someone, so I don't see what concern it would be."

"I can't say I truly know what it's truly like to be a human in the first place, but go off." They could only observe. Either for the better or for the worse, they didn't know. In a way, they wished they could just be a normal person so they wouldn't have to deal with heaven's shit, but could they handle the humans' way of living?... Yeah, things were definitely easier for them. But at the same Nao at least hoped if they stuck around for long enough they could make a change in the way Heaven was structured. "I'll try to do something, but I can't promise anything. I can defend you and be your voice when the other angels don't want to listen but everything outside of that is beyond my control."

"Sounds easy coming from someone who doesn't know what being middle-aged feels like." The priest noted partly in jest, though he could go on for hours about all the things that had changed since he'd reached a more -- - mature age. Waking up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom or having a sudden urge to nap creeping up on him during the day hadn't been at the top of the list of his expectations when it came to getting older. Then again, he hadn't actually expected himself to get this far. "Well, I'd ask, but you know how it is, we don't all have the guardian of sleep on speed dial." Just another reference that he imagined dated him these days, how many people even remembered what that was in the current climate? Would the being he was talking to even know what it was either? "Yeah? Might need to ask for a few favours when my turn comes around. Reckon I'll be fastracked downstairs once my usefulness to the big guy upstairs runs out."

@kisumshi: Like every year, it's always hard to top the gift Nao got him for his birthday. Nao's gifts were always more thoughtful, with heart behind it. Natsuya's tended to gravitate towards experience or practicality more. After a breakfast of American style pancakes cooked by yours truly, Natsuya offers Nao an envelope and a small box. "Happy birthday." Inside the envelope were two tickets to an aquarium date and inside the box was a sleek, black band, with something that looks like a small buzzer attached to it. Sheepishly, Natsuya shows his own wrist where resides an identical band along with the bracelet Nao had gotten him. "It has a vibration setting on it, every time one of us thinks about the other, it'll vibrate, so we can always be connected, even if we're far away."

Happy Birthday Nao!

With only a week separating their birthdays, it was a little special when they'd gift each other things on their birthdays. Call it a bit of a competition as well, but Nao rather liked seeing just how Natsuya would plan to gift him something that might could beat him out. If anything, the amusing collection of odd stuffed animals he kept by his desk meant a lot to him, but this year it seems to be a little different.

After all they (meaning Natsuya) finally acknowledged their long time feelings for each other. Nao picked something practical, a reminder, a memento that even though he can't be in the waters with him anymore, he's still there with him no matter where in the world he chose to be and will always wait for him.

That's to say, he didn't expect this sort of gift from his lover.

The aquarium tickets were very nice, however it was the bracelet that threatened to snatch his heart away. Nao sat unmoving for a moment, before laughing sheepishly at his being shy; however he couldn't help his own growing blush, unbothered by it while he puts Natsuya's gift over his matching bracelet. His finger circles over the buzzer giving it a tap and hearing Natsuya's wrist buzz.

"This is... thank you Natsuya. I hope you won't be bothered by how many times a day I'll tap this."

Cause boy, does Nao miss him a lot when he's not home. Gracefully, He leans over the small table to lay a gentle peck on the other's cheek.

"They're lovely gifts. Thank you."

Nao didn't like people getting in their space, mostly every other angel knew that by then, so they acted accordingly. And although they did try to keep their cool in front of those in higher positions, they were also known for their short temper. It was one of those things they couldn't control (or more likely decided not to control) after facing the eyes of Hell. Surely Heaven's right hand was one day going to get rid of them for it, like how it got rid of everybody else who tried to expose the darkness in the world that was supposed to be only full of light. But right now that wasn't on Nao's priority list. Obviously, though, the angel's actions backfired on them in the blink of an eye.

They tried to free themselves from the other grip, but it was no use. If only Nao was a little more powerful, then maybe they would have a chance. Even training wouldn't make much of a difference against those higher than them, and they could only curse at God for making them this way, for making them see way too much yet not have the power to do anything about it no matter what they tried. But they were going to prove the impossible one day, mark their words! Even if that cost their life. "Why should I have remorse for a traitor?" They looked away but soon realized the grip on them was loosening. Didn't mean much in their eyes, but it was still something. "Name is Nao."

"You call me hypocritical, but you're not much different."

@celestialemmissaries

The kick that came from the provoking guardian pushes Batariel back into his own desk, the disrespect shown as well as spouted by such a brave and noble guardian would be paid in kind. The angel fixes his shirt and suit, wiping his chest with his hand and cracking his neck with a tilt to the side before lunging at the stranger at an almost instantaneous speed, a true blink and miss moment. The lawyer grips firmly on the neck of the other and pushes him right against the wall, other hand gripping his wrists together and slamming them above his head. The position seemed quite provocative unintentionally, but at least it seemed the best to keep the guardian from any further physical outbursts. "I don't want their attention anymore, my time in the council and position in the heavens is over and done. Watch your tone the next time you address me, I'd hate to ruin such a pretty and handsome face."

The Lawyer's words were a warning, albeit a gentler one than what he'd give to say a demon or some sort, Batariel would give the stranger a respect even if it wasn't to be reciprocated... But physical actions? Fair game. "Look at you, no remorse at all... The hypocrisy oozes off of you, mister. Tell me your name, stranger. I won't ask again." his group on the neck loosens as well as on the wrists, in an effort to prove the other wrong and show he isn't any other angel, he was one with a heart.

"I may have forsaken the angels... But I'd never forget to enforce their teachings should you force my hand, pretty boy."

Happy Valentine's Day, it should be all about spoiling yourself. Enjoy good food, dance through the night & let your favorite fox gift you something that makes you look even prettier

💋, Nine

"You didn't tell me we were celebrating." Nao eyed the other. They weren't sure if Nine liked this holiday, turns out he did. Good thing Nao wasn't unprepared. That was somewhat a lie, they've been working on making those keychains and bracelet for quite a while now, they've been preparing this gift for over a month, it was more than intentional. They looked away as handed Nine his gift. "These are for you... Would you like to go on a dinner together? I could put on what you gave me."
