{ 1, 13, 26, and 34? }

1. How do they move and carry themselves? Pace, rhythm, gestures, energy?

Nah tends to restrain herself in an attempt to act more mature, and it often shows. That said, if you catch her when she isn’t placing that pressure on herself (or when she’s simply exhausted), she can be awfully childlike in terms of her mannerisms. She can also be very energetic, and if she’s spent too long of a time as a human she starts getting a bit restless and fidgety. 

Nah doesn’t tend to gesture much when she speaks. It’s actually quite rare that she does.

13. How do they greet the world — what is their typical attitude towards life? How does it differ in different circumstances, or towards different subjects? Why do they take these attitudes, and why do they change? How do these tend to be expressed?

Nah is overall a pessimist, though she never quite gives up hope (most of the time). That said, she also tries to put up a strong front, and might not admit her true thoughts about a situation aloud, even when prompted. Much of this manifests itself in her almost constant state of worry and her insistence that her time needs to be spent being useful and/or bettering herself. It leaves her with an immense reluctance to simply live life and have fun. 

She tends to expect the worst from people, due to her childhood. She also has a rather negative attitude towards herself. She expresses these by provoking others, at times, or testing them to see whether others are only pretending to want her around. She also has a strong tendency to rely on her sense of smell to identify other people’s emotions, rather than relying on other cues. 

Both of these get better with time…but it’s a long process.

26. How do they view and feel about relationships, and how might this manifest in how they handle them, if it does?

Nah’s honestly pretty wary of the idea. She wants them in theory, but she doubts that anyone would want to be in a romantic relationship with her (or a platonic one, for that matter). This, again, leads her to “test” people in her life, to make sure that they’re really there for the long haul. Is it a healthy habit? Absolutely not, and she certainly has alienated others in doing so, but it’s something she does even though she hates that she feels the need to do so. She tends to be a bit clingy for similar reasons–she has trouble with emotional permanence.

34. How do they understand the world–what kind of worldview and thought processes do they have? Why?

Nah understands the world as a pretty harsh place, at least initially. It’s only after returning to the past that she starts to appreciate it a bit more…though the fact that the past isn’t in the middle of an apocalypse certainly helps. She starts to believe a bit more in humanity as time goes by in the past, and she slowly starts to be able to appreciate the little things in life, especially once the fighting is done.

{ I think you would write Joker (from Fates) well! }

Ooh, that would make an interesting challenge given my very mixed feelings about him.  I unabashedly like both of my muses, problematic as they are.  However, there’s no denying that Joker is funny.

Moonstruck

Yuugiri couldn’t sleep.

It was a warm night, far too warm for her to be covered up in a blanket, and her mind was occupied by other things anyway.  She crept out of the women’s barracks, deciding to take a walk instead of tossing and turning about.

A slight breeze filled the air, cutting some of the effects of the humidity; she would have to tell Kamui to leave the windows of the women’s barracks open if only for ventilation.   She strolled the grounds, noticing the full moon’s warped reflection in the glass windows of the accessory shop, the moonlight gleaming off of the statues of particularly murderous members of the army.

She saw an out-of-place silver shimmer out of the corner of her eye.  A neglected weapon?  No, it was too big.  An invasion would be a problem, especially when she wasn’t carrying her weapon...

When she turned her head, however, she saw no invader.  She merely saw Zero staring at the moon.  “Zero?”

Everyone needed a break every now and then; that much was obvious. It was at his siblings' urgings that he caved in and sought out a vacation, finding his own protests to be futile (four against one already seemed like a losing battle just with number of opinions alone), though he... admittedly had no idea where to start.

What was meant to be a simple escape alone turned into a misadventure for two. The prince had admittedly lingered behind as long as possible, hoping his siblings would change their minds and allow him to stay, but alas, that opportunity never came, and he figured if he was taking any sort of leave, he might as well invite someone else with him.

❝ I'm so sorry, I just... Alright, I have no idea where we are. ❞

His apology came out uneasy to the outlaw, and he can only imagine how stupid it seemed to be the one to invite someone only to take them to an unknown destination only learned about by a random passerby. He... probably should have planned this out further. He also probably should not have entered a cave once he had seen that the beach looked desolated, but regret took one nowhere.

❝ Surely the exit has to be somewhere. We were just there after all. ❞

Though he tried to sound confident, he gulped, and he blindly took a step towards where he could have sworn they had come from before a low hum pierced the air that sounded vaguely like a ghastly chuckle. He turned sharply in the direction of the noise, stopping in his tracks, waiting for another noise to confirm what he had heard.

{Well that didn’t work out, though it did yield some... interesting results! :0 I’ll try again later--I might have completely goofed it all up, after all. I really appreciate the links though, especially the latter--that was the only one I didn’t find several times over in my search!}

{ For the ones on your blog following this should fix it to my knowledge: academyoftumblr.tumblr…. ^^}

Edited-edit: That was a fluke, it’s still broken and the tags I mentioned not being in were in, ctrl+F just refuses to highlight them

Edit: Figured it out, it seems to be fixed now, thank you very much!

Yeah I placed that code in when I looked for a solution to the problem earlier. Upon double-checking the issue now, however, I realized that I don’t even have “<script type="javascript">” anywhere on the code. I have no idea how to implement that if it IS neccessary, however.
