It was decided — he did not like Tokyo. Weekend trips to the overwhelming metropolis of fashion and culture were one thing, but actually living in a place of noise and air pollution, akin to the vile nature of swallowing curses, made Getō Suguru crave a shower simply thinking about it. He, as it was laid out to him in practiced polite tone, had little option. Use your abilities for good. Surrounded by people like you. What are your other options?

Who said the teenager didn't have dreams. He had plans of attending college, going through the whole experience, and working his ass off because he was no rich brat. It was an abysmal speech found in the corners of action based mangas and dialogue within hero-in-training movies. Suguru's very own coming to age story packed with training, killing monsters, and being repulsed by his sorcerer technique. Yeah, charming. As frightened as his parents had been and the neighborhood kids, the seasoning on the onigri was his dislike of his own technique.

He enjoyed having a third eye, a sixth sense, but he felt akin to the superhero with the lamest ability. Curses were meant to be exorcised, meanwhile Suguru was capable of swallowing them like they were friends to cherish. What did it mean for a sorcerer to keep his curses instead of killing them? The Principal of one school and a representative of another did not think it an ill omen. Apparently, if making out with a curse meant saving the world, they were all game for it.

Sure, those weren't precisely their words, but Suguru understood the meaning. People like him, like them were a rare breed, and Japan was in dire need of morally right users. Suguru accepted on the grounds it was on a trial basis even though he had a feeling the Jujutsu institute was not one to accept on the fence students. They were desperate, weren't they? Suguru was young in age, but if he was to be killing curses and putting his life on the line, he was prepared with the maturity of a man twice his age.

In truth, Suguru had been frightened over the prospect of working a bone breaking job of menial labour to pay for college, and there was the matter of staying at home ... his childhood already felt like an overbearing weight; had felt as such for a long while. No child should wish to disappear from home. Once again, Suguru was fulfilling the manga trope although the protagonist usually had an obnoxiously wonderful childhood ... or it was marred with tragedy. Either way, Suguru did not quite fit the bill — just a short lifetime of resentment and cold shoulders. It was strange how all of his possessions could fit in a few boxes and cases of luggage, not as strange as his parents' eagerness to get rid of their son.

Between Tokyo and Kyoto, ultimately it boiled down to Yaga Masamichi; although speaking and walking like a man with a stick in his arse, he, at least, appeared more genuine. The Principal versus a representative. The choice was obvious. And hey, maybe Tokyo wouldn't be too horrid. He was told the campus was secluded and away from the main chaos. Furthermore, Tokyo really did have all the hot spots: vending machines filled with all his favourite things, cat cafes, omelet places worthy of social media, and the best shoe and gym clothes department stores. Maybe he could come to like Tokyo.

That still left the matter of Jujutsu Metropolitan Technical School and his classmates. Suguru tended to fair well with new people his age, but there was a vulnerability talking about his technique and showing it to people first hand. What was supposed to help humanity felt an awful lot like a dirty secret. By the time he arrived at the school, his boxes were already delivered and waiting outside his assigned dorm room. The Principal himself gave him the grand ( truly grand ) tour, a lengthy lecture, a history lesson ... Suguru was exhausted by the end of the day to the say the least.

Because he was not from Tokyo, he had been scheduled to arrive earlier than his classmates; a curtesy provided by Masamichi. Sounded an awful lot like a country bumpkin like you needs time to adjust, but the onyx haired teen accepted it nonetheless. The three days prior to his classmate's @pyrrhaic arrival was used to explore the beautiful campus, decorate his room, and stock the fridge and pantry with all the things he liked. It worked out perfectly. He carved out his space in the fridge, the optimal pantry space, and picked the best shower and toilet in the men's shared bathroom.

The rest of the time the teenager relaxed and meditated. Slept in, too. His time was his until the three days ran out in a blink. Lessons wouldn't start until two days later, thus Suguru lounged about in clean and ironed black joggers and an acid wash t-shirt. He didn't outright stand at the entrance like an eager errand boy, instead he loitered around the shared living area; ready to greet and be polite once the Principal was done with his speech.

[Unsent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] I'm having a rough day and I could use something to cheer me up.

[Unsent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] You have me addicted to that one cafe we went to. I hate you for that.

[Unsent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] It's okay to vent to me. Not everyone around you understands like those who have been around you the longest.

[Unsent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] Do you also have those days where you wish to be normal? or those days when everyone would forget you were even around...

[Unsent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] I had a nightmare last night when I saw Haibara again. Sometimes I think he haunts me.

[ sent ] [ sms -- Satoru gojo ] I'm taking today off so I can relax. Please stop texting me nonsense. Don't you have anyone else to bother?

though the Mu Clan had been rather prominent during its time in Korea, starting over because another family, no some upstart had threatened them seemed a bit much. not that Yeon could understand that, but the navigation of the political realm of Japan, is similar enough.

Be the biggest clan, one with the most powerful techniques would stand out. But the ability to use two different techniques at the same time is useless against infinity and the shadow garden technique. and the blood arrows, all things that would make life simply easier by having. [he thinks, power does not come naturally to him]

Alas compared to those like the Gojo clan, it was a uphill battle that won't stop! But with constant vigilian-

"Ah...Teacher Gojo?"

It was like watching a train crash , or a incoming traffic collision. Living alone for four years had made him independent from his clan outside of financial support. But he couldn't forget the sight of his blind fold of a teacher, and seeing him in...the normal world, it felt odd. It felt weird. it felt like something he shouldn't see.

Did gojo even need to eat or did infinity fill his stomach too?

And then the situation dawns on him as-

"Please put your hand away from the special edition last ice cream!"

the market is a cruel cruel place, pitting former student and teacher. Over ice cream.

“We make damn beautiful babies, don’t we?” (From Pyrrha)

“Language.” Jaune rebuked, but his heart wasn’t in it. He was smiling at their beautiful baby. Though, if he was honest with himself, he would have thought  his little one was perfect so long as she was healthy. He was careful to support her head as he held his tiny daughter, swaddled in blankets.

“She is beautiful though. Aren’t you, my little Ru?” He cooed, waggling his fingers at the baby girl, who giggled and began to attempt to catch the digits.

@pyrrhaic-victory

“Keep moving,” Qrow grunted, letting his hand rest vaguely threateningly on his weapon. Not that he thought she would be a problem. Ruby was still at Beacon, and would kill Jaune if Pyrrha didn’t behave herself. Not that Pyrrha knew it was Ruby who would do the killing. Just that he had an agent watching Jaune.

They were going back to his mother. Salem. Before this girl could put more of a dent in their plans. They’d done the transfer before he’d been able to stop it, before they were ready to proceed. At least this way, she couldn’t cause any more problems.

@pyrrhaic-victory liked for a starter

“Before we begin today, we need to have a discussion.” Winter wanted to know what Pyrrha thought about everything that had happened. While she was there to help the girl learn how to use her abilities, progress would be hindered if her heart wasn’t in it.

She needed to know the truth. 

"Tell me, if you were never told there were lives on the line, would you have agreed to this?" She wanted to know what sort of choice Ozpin gave her. “If it was just power with no threat of someone else stealing them, would you have said yes?”

👋 What was the mun’s first impression of the muse?

he very much served a purpose as the ‘tutorial’ character, the ‘normal’ one, and i tend to flock to those types but honest i didn’t pay much attention to jaune until about the end of season two? start of season three? though i was one of those people that liked him more than i disliked him, i just didn’t ponder him much. but mostly due to season three and talking with @lepusheart so often jaune quickly became one of my favorites, and when i rewatched rwby with @saecris and some friends i was like, yea. good shit. but initially he wasn’t my main focus.

ANIMAL FAMILIAR .

FUSHIGURO MEGUMI

Fox : Though often having a reputation as a trickster, the Fox familiar is actually a good mentor to their master. They are some of the best animals as guides through difficult situations, using wisdom, cunning, and intelligence to lead the way. Being very seclusive and quiet, you are very likely a more introverted individual, though that doesn't stop you from being kind and helping others. Like the fox, you are very aware of your environment and the people around you, and are hard to catch off-guard. A Fox familiar may act as a teacher or mentor to their master, helping them through difficult situations and keeping them aware of the world. This familiar represents — Intelligence, being secluded, cleverness, awareness quick-thinking, wisdom.

GETOU SUGURU

Wild Horse: The wild Horse familiar clearly shows the essence of strength and a drive to be free. You are not afraid of what others think, and do not hold back when expressing yourself and your ideas. Be aware, as your determination could give way to stubbornness, and your goals could end up running your life instead of yourself. Overall, this familiar guides you to follow your dreams no matter what the cost. However, sometimes you need to constrain that rebellious side of yourself, before someone else has to for you. A Wild Horse familiar drives their master on to pursue their dreams, aids them through difficult areas and times, and inspires them to stay confident.  This familiar represents — A rebellious spirit, confidence, freedom, strength, slight Instability, drive to accomplish dreams.

❝ wait, are you jealous? ❞

A sigh left his lips for a moment. Him, jealous? That's a new one. Maybe a little annoyed, but jealous over anything Gojo did wasn't something he would admit to. Though he was a little annoyed to think

But Gojo also had a way of putting words in his mouth, and no matter what he would try and do, he wouldn't be able to talk himself out of anything. and that is what he was going to be annoyed with. A long sigh left his lips for a moment and for some reason, he was looking away. Giving himself a long pause before the other.

The longer Nanami stays the more it shows he might really be jealous. then again -- he couldn't help it.

After all, he got the last baked pastry he wanted.

Kind of just disappointed, but then he watched the other brag about it after the woman put it in his bag. Nanami really never had good luck when he came out with Gojo, everyone was always flirting with him or giving things to him. so just being around him like this on a day off pissed Nanami off. So jealous, Just a little bit -- but he wouldn't be the type of person to allow himself to admit it. So he was a little annoyed, but he knew for a long time, Gojo could get anything he wanted with his smile alone. Looking back at the other for a moment he sighed.

" doesn't matter, I'll get something else later. you enjoy that."

It was almost passive-aggressive, but He had started to turn and walked away. Not even bothering to get anything else from the shop.

pyrrhaic-victory replied to your post:

Honestly same? My cosplay friends love to throw dead Pyrrha jokes in my face as I cosplay her and it got within a few days of it occurring now I just a bit irritated especially as it tends to be the same ones over and over and over again. Occasionally I get them here too. And canon divergence is great my blog is but I haven’t stated it.

// god, it can get really annoying

// I haven’t done any conventions in a while or done any cosplay, but I’d imagine a Pyrrha cosplayer spends every convention getting the same three jokes over and over.

// Every fandom has that one joke that just gets repeated and repeated ad nauseam, with every person repeating it thinking they’re clever.

          bleach swum at the edge of vision, spiralling out & strangling memories — twisting once coherent shapes, thoughts, into nothing but blur of paste. she could not remember. recollect. the events that had so haphazardly transpired that night fleeted ever further from grasp.

❝ I feel so nauseous today… ❞ (from Pyrrha with her pregnant with Aethon)

“I thought that fish, was, well… fishy.” Jaune said with a weak grin.

The pun was horrible, but the point stood. They’d stopped for fast food because of exhaustion on the way home from work, and Pyrrha had gotten a fish sandwich despite his pleas. They always mucked up seafood; he’d taken to counting the people who didn’t get food poisoning when they ordered it instead of those who had.

“Need me to hold your hair back?” He asked, voice thick with compassion.

[scareqrowbranwen-archive]

“I’m going to die.” Because you know I love angst

“You won’t,” Qrow insisted, reaching out to squeeze her shoulder. “I won’t let you.”
