[quote=Kissu]Not gonna lie Sword, Noboru's shirt ripping escapades wasn't exactly 'serious' writing. [b]There's very little that could shock me.[/b][/quote] What about [u][i]100% naked[/i][/u] Rokoru? And spEAKING OF NAKED ROKORU Day 18 of my Christmas advent/challenge thing! Every day until Christmas, I'll make a post featuring either the character from the Arcana assigned to the day (apologies in advance if I fuck up their personalities) or an event of my choosing if no relevant character exists for the Arcana. Arcanas are assigned numerically, as in Fool (0) was the fourth, and the World (21) is Christmas Day. Stories have no set theme and they have no minimum length. Today's arcana is the Star, which is Zane's Teiji Ishiahara! Buuuut he hasn't posted here in a month (or anywhere in three) so I'm just going to not. Instead, here's some more shitty Rokoru fanservice! Think of it as a companion piece to the actual trash Sword's writing right now. If you look through the latest conversation on the pad, you can find some quotes from it, and frankly, it's a masterpiece. Basic updates and schedule can be found [url=https://arcvalerik.titanpad.com/1?]here[/url]! [hider=Day 18]Rokoru slowly lowered himself into the hot water slowly until he found himself seated on an underwater step, and upon realizing it, he let out a long and relaxed sigh out as he felt the heat from the water on almost all of his body. The steam that came off from the surface heated everything not submerged above his chest. The feeling of the water was incredibly pleasant on all his muscles after having done most of the heavy lifting they had to do in the range earlier, and prior to that, he had practiced a bit and as usual he held it longer and harder than he needed to, quickly wearing himself out a bit. A good way to ease the aching in his arms, legs, and torso was just what he needed, and he jumped on the offer when one of Hashimoto’s suspiciously muscular friends suggested going to some new hot springs that opened up in one of the towns a little ways out of Warakuma. He leaned back, sliding a little further into the water until only his neck and head were above the surface, resting his head on the smooth tile at the edge of the springs. His hands ran down his body subconsciously, stopping at the part of his abs that ached the most. The spot didn’t feel entirely solid and the boy made a mental note to work out more, though the idea quickly fled his mind as the boy sunk a little further into the water, putting his arms behind his head in an attempt to get more comfortable than he already was. Though, his attention was brought back to the real world when a huge splash of water erupted from the place where someone jumped in. Rokoru immediately sat up straight and awkwardly covered his crotch with his arms despite the water being nearly impossible to see through when combined with the little light available at night. The third-year had to remind himself that some other members of the club had went with him, and the only reason he was alone in the springs for so long was because he quickly stripped right by the water’s edge, getting in and enjoying it before others made it awkward. The idea of being naked around other guys (let alone girls, but that was a different story) bothered him a bit, but leaving as soon as they get there would be weird. It wasn’t like he even wanted to leave the warm embrace of the hot springs either, so the strange position he took would have to suffice. Rokoru simply glared at the several guys (which included Sato) that followed the one into the water through the steam that rose from the surface of the springs. There was nothing nice about some group of dudes he barely knew chatting up a storm while he was trying to silently submerge himself in warmth and just let every muscle in his body relax. But, it wasn’t like sitting there, all withdrawn in on himself, wasn’t nice. The only difference was that he wasn’t stretched out and his collarbone and part of his shoulders were now out of the water. It wasn’t bad at all.[/hider]
