I want to add more hsr muse(s) and maybe more genshin (even though I haven't been playing in a long time I still enjoy some of the characters) but I don't know whOMst

[vonbirden]

I've been so sick rip but new years was fun and got to celebrate my birthday with my mates which made it really lovely! So when I feel better and less sick, I'll be writing and trying to do more threads! And also, add more hoyo muses because my love will never leave even when I don't actively play a few of the games anymore (hsr tho? always)

Will be adding more muse(s) for testing I think! And also, I just like trying new characters always so if any of my dear mutuals want to write with a character this is neglected in the rpc, always hit me up if I know the fandom I find it so much fun.

Might make some icons for a little bit / gather screencaps again, and work a bit on my pages for the next day or two <3 will get back to chatting on discord soon as well. I have been working over the holiday period (from home at least! but still always busy) but I return to office on monday which shouldn't change much but might drain me for a few weeks while getting back into the groove.

also cosplay from new years even though wasn't happy with makeup it was so much fun to vibe in >>

Quicksketch of Levi and Farlan inbetween commissions. Still need to figure out how to translate quick and sketchy into desired quality but practice is practice! Also pouty Levi and teasing Farlan are an aesthetic

▒ ANSWERED ᴹᴱᴹᴱ! @skarletchains ➳ "What color would you like the wrapping, Mister?" The shop assistant asked Kurapika kindly before wrapping the gift he had ordered. Kurapika thought of the day he and Leorio met, tried to remember that day and slightly tilted his head from side to side. "Navy blue, please." He finally mentioned. "And the bow?" On this occasion, the blonde did not have to think too much. "Green, emerald." With a soft gesture, almost like a slight respectful bow, Kurapika took the wrapped gift and said goodbye to the shop assistant. On the way to the park, Kurapika thought a couple of times if what he was doing was right, if he had chosen the right gift and suddenly found himself frowning slightly. Since when did he have so much doubt? The thought made him laugh softly and he shook his head at his own reaction. Having spent so much time isolated from people made him somewhat hesitant about how to relate to others. But in the end, the answer was simple, the same as always: Just do what makes you feel good and what you think is right. Finally at the park, Kurapika laughed almost inaudibly when he found Leorio already there waiting, suddenly having a small deja vu. "Good afternoon, Leorio" The blonde's voice was almost as soft as a lullaby. Without saying much more, Kurapika extended his hand towards him with the small box wrapped in navy blue paper with the green bow "Merry…" Christmas? he thought. It almost sounded hypocritical when he was not a Christian, when he did not celebrate Christmas properly. So again he did what made him feel good, what he thought was right "Happy winter solstice" In the small box, a pen was kept, silver on the outside, with a name engraved along its length: Dr. Paladiknight, Leorio.

LEG BOUNCES as he waits on the park bench, the gift shifting from his lap every so often ━━ his hand now firmly on top, while Leorio watches the distant crowds in silent thought. It was a lot easier finding gifts for the other two, and as someone who didn't have much money to begin with, he never celebrated much on christmas. He wasn't much of a religious man either, but he found himself joining in on the holiday tradition. Maybe, he was a bit anxious about this one in particular. He'd spent a stupid amount of time searching for something that Kurapika would like, and in his haste had countless discussions about the presentation of the box itself.

There was still a lot he didn't know about Kurapika, wasn't there? He knew a lot about the type of person he was, how stubborn and often reckless he could get, that he was devoted to his ambition and his own morals enough that he wouldn't be swayed otherwise, that he cared very deeply about those close to him, that despite it all he was a pacifist and wouldn't have chosen this path otherwise ... and yet, Leorio didn't even know his favourite colour.

After awhile, it felt like he was shopping for his girlfriend, and now, with the pendant and photo of all of them together (a similar picture he kept close to his desk) wrapped nicely in his grasp, Leorio was beginning to doubt. Well, not like he could do much about it now.

Until he finally heard him. "Good afternoon, Leorio" / and it's enough to brighten his expression, a quiet laugh under his breath as he finally stands up and gives a small wave ━━ two fingers to his forehead and a quick flick in greeting.

“ Hey Kurapika, long time no see. I was worried you were about to stand me up for a moment there. ” Upon seeing the box gifted his way, Leorio pauses. A soft blink as he watches Kurapika hesitate. Truthfully, he didn't expect it. Kurapika didn't seem like the type, and he doubted Christmas was something he celebrated himself. Actually, when was the last time he ever got a gift from someone else? Shoulders drop, because in this moment, he's quietly stunned, a small ache in his heart that softens with every passing moment.

So, he laughs. He can't help himself. Yeah, this was the Kurapika he knew well, damn if he didn't know his favourite colour just yet. He lifts his own gift he prepared and gently shakes it, a showcase of his before he offers it forward as well. Looks like they were exchanging gifts. A clear quartz / that's what he had settled on after a lot of deliberation.

“ Right back at you. Merry happy winter solstice, Kurapika. ”

▒ ANSWERED ᴹᴱᴹᴱ! ❛ you know you can always talk to me. ❜ ➳ @shackld ＋ adopts killua

SHE'S SO WEIRD. These are the first thoughts that come to mind while hands shove into pockets, turning on his heel with a small frown. What was the point of being so nice? It wasn't like she knew him or anything. It's a bit embarrassing, if not unnecessary. Heh! Bet she wouldn't be so willing if she did know him. Still, the longer he watches her, the more unnerved he becomes (...) no hesitation, it was genuine, and that look in her eyes was-

“ Why would I want to do that? ” BLUNT, but not malicious. A dismissive shrug as eyes briefly close, raising his chin with an inaudible exhale. “ It's not like I'd have anything in common with an old lady. ” Brat.

Casual in his demeanour when he once again returns her gaze. Yeah, he knows it's not what she means ... ugh, he really wished she'd stop looking at him like that! It was so annoying!

“ Yeah, okay. I know. ” Like a scolded child he whines with a grumble at his breath, rather exaggerated in his defeat. “ Then can we talk about something else already, because you're making things awkward. ”

▒ ANSWERED ᴹᴱᴹᴱ! ❛ enemies make the best lovers, you know. ❜ ➳ @damagecompilation ＋ miko is here again signora arent u pleased

“ Oh, that you think a little fox could count as MY enemy, I'm not sure if I should be amused or disgusted. ” HER LAUGH IS COLD, a whimsical gleam in an otherwise icy gaze. Lovers now, was it? Miko did like to try and play under her skin / the word itself is simply fatuous. She'd only done this out of boredom. Rosalyne also knew that this little pet loved to ease her own dreariness. Or maybe, they both just enjoyed this dangerous performance, to unravel another so deeply that their lies and truths hung in the balance, that one small step would be the last ━━ that when one of them grew disinterested, a different fight for control would begin, and their game would be over.

A gloved finger tips Miko's chin upward, the smirk she wore as poisonous as her intentions / for a woman who's heart resided in the ever lasting glacier could never truly feel the warmth; UNLESS IT CAME AT LAST TO CONSUME HER.

“ I suppose you best work on making me scream in agony. Until then, your potential as a "lover" is rather pathetic. At least try to entertain me once in awhile. You can start by keeping that mouth of yours shut. ”

▒ ANSWERED ᴹᴱᴹᴱ! ❛ we can't keep doing this. ❜ ➳ @galaxythixf ＋ - Kurapika to Leorio

THERE'S A PAUSE that follows after ━━ Leorio's surprise at the sudden shift in atmosphere echoes in a questioning hum. He stares in thought for awhile. Honestly, even he isn't quite sure what he's studying Kurapika for; maybe, even a small crack in his demeanour, or a look of knowing that their paths would always drift from one another. But never far, no, those he held close to him weren't going out of his sights for too long ... his loyalty to his friends first, everything else second. Even his own dream.

He's composed as he leans back in his seat, a soft touch to his smug grin. A dash of arrogance graces his display. “ Hey, I'm not keeping you here. You can walk out whenever you like. ”

“ You cocky little-! ” At the slightest sign of movement (or was he just on edge, breaking out of his posed demeanour instantly) Leorio almost jumps from his seat. ARGH! He remembers why Kurapika got under his skin! “ I was just kidding! It was a joke, you better not go anywhere, got that?! ” They can't keep doing this. If Kurapika really did decide to leave now, would he really mean that?

Blowing off steam gives Leorio time to cool off, a few grumbles under his breath, a few 'what, can't see each other now, is that it?' and 'too arrogant for your own good' remarks here and there. A part of him wanted to let loose his entire feelings on the matter, yell in his face if it got the point across, and ...

“ Sorry, but no. ” This is nice, even squabbling with him again feels nostalgic, like they'd never left that hunter exam. A soothing calm in the wake of his storm, a warm and silent confidence in his response.

“ I'm gonna have to reject that. ” Even meeting like this from time to time was enough. Maybe it was a distraction for Kurapika, but maybe, it's one he needed sometimes. Sure, dragging him away from his environment was difficult, trying to get him to answer his phone too was the biggest challenge ━━ wasn't like he knew his location half the time, but for Leorio, it was worth it. Each and every time. “ Can't have you always getting your way. So that's where I come in. Even if you refuse to see me, I'll just barge on in and beat down anyone that tries to stop me. ”

RULE UPDATE that I forgot to add since I have b//nha muse now so need to add another rule in.

Unless we are good mutuals / chat ooc / or you're a chill multi like me, I do not fuck with the b//nha rpc at all. I burn it with fire. As an adult with bills and a mortgage to pay, the amount of fucks I give to tolerate that behaviour baby me witnessed in the long times forgotten is zero. But the series? So very good. Here for a goofy and good time. People I follow atm? Incredible, chef kiss.
