As seen in: Domestic Samurai

𝒩𝑜𝓉𝑒𝓈: Chunjiro's siblings! He has three brothers and three sisters. Reo and Takeru are twins. Maika and Yua are close, but Yua dotes on everyone. Takeru fights with everyone. Izukaze is his father's favorite. Himari is Chunjiro's favorite. Chinatsu has no favorite. Since the rp is focused on Chunjiro, I don't know why I went to the trouble of making profiles for all of his siblings, but I wanted to. It was fun.

Would play again: Maybe Reo or Yua would be interesting as a main. As of now they are merely background characters.
Aaah it's been a hot minute, sorry about that. Might make a laundry list for Chunjiro's siblings--he has three sisters and three brothers.
Some are bit quieter, but Maika and Takeru make enough noise for all of them. The youngest is just a baby still, and Chunjiro loves her with his entire heart, so I hope they can all meet Haru soon :D.
"I'm sure you would be a good help, even if you can't do the hard parts. Most of them are without relatives and love to chat," Chunjiro tells her, putting the water on to boil. He was always taught to respect his elders, so it is sympathy and sadness that he approaches his job--he couldn't be more happy to serve them, but to see their lonely lives hurts his heart. Often, he wishes he could lend them a few of his siblings as live-in aides, but it's nothing more than a wish. They all have their own duties, just as he has his.

"Of course. I'll bring you along, alright?" he says, smiling at Haru. Working together. Before the wedding, an acquaintance had warned him of the possible problems that come along with marriage, but Chunjiro simply can't see where he's coming from. Having Haru by his side sounds like a dream. True, father and mother often work apart, but in this case, it's fine to keep her close to him, right?

…It's strange. Maybe it's because he's never had something all to himself that he's feeling this way?

"Lonely…" Chunjiro echoes, thinking yet again of his clients. Haru would probably fit right in. As for Chunjiro, his house was always full to the brim, so even if he wanted to be lonely, his siblings and duties wouldn't let him. There was always more work to do, more training in the dojo, more caring for the younger ones… Of course, as Yua and Maika got older, it got less difficult. The oldest sister, Yua is a beautiful, educated, and well-mannered girl, so much so that Chunjiro has begun to worry about the number of suitors vying for her hand. Maika still has much childness in her, but her and Yua are close, and Maika has begun to follow in her older sister's example.

Now that I'm here, you needn't be lonely ever again. If only Chunjiro had the courage to say those words! As always, he is too scared of offending her, of making things worse… But, even if he can't tell her, he will surely show her. Actions speak louder than words, as the saying goes. And Chunjiro has faith in his hands, if nothing else.

You think I am pretty? Chunjiro's first reaction is to stop, drop everything, and run away, but seeing as that isn't an option, he simply freezes up. Does he? Wait, of course he does! More than pretty, she's cute, but that's somehow more embarrassing. This is find, he's told ladies they were pretty before--yeah right, when he was like six--

"-es. Yes. You are. Very pretty." His words are stiff, but Chunjiro hates lying, so it had to be said. Plus, girls like compliments, right? If Haru is happy, then, well… perhaps the embarrassment is worth it… Turning his red face to the boiling pot, Chunjiro begins rationing out rice--doubled, this time, though Haru might not eat so much as him...?

"Is there nobody in this freakin' town!?"

Hiya, thanks for clickin'. I'll give it to ya straight: I want to play a (preferably highschool age) delinquent. I like the rowdy, stubborn, hard-outside-soft-inside type of character, and I'd like to rp something according to this concept. And although I'm partial to the Japanese "yankee," obviously it doesn't have to be according to anime tropes. (I can link you to some very cute manga if you're interested, though.)

So, I'm looking for a girl that can break down some walls. That make sense? I know it's rather annoying to ask for a specific role, but I promise I'll give you room to improvise and create your own character. Really, I just want some good ol' romance. Give me a PM, or drop a message on this thread if you're interested. Thanks! :)
"Ah, well..." Chunjiro considers it, drawing water from the well. Most of his work consists of yardwork and chores for the elderly inhabitants of the village, usually the widows and the ones without children to take care of them. It is the samurai's duty to care for his lord and his lord's lieges, and in Chunjiro's case, he cares for the weak and the elderly. Many of them are friends he has known since childhood, and now that he is old enough to provide for them, they treat him like a son.

"It's a lot of hard labor, like yardwork for people who aren't strong enough to do it themselves. I'm sure the obasans ("grannies") would be happy to see, ah, um..."

Some of the old ladies have expressed their wishes to see Chunjiro find a good and upstanding wife to share his days with. He certainly thinks Haru fits the bill, but he fears she would get embarrassed by the nosy, if well-meaning, nature of some of the grandmothers. He's sure they would love to talk to another girl, but...

"...any visitors. I could introduce you to a few of them, since I need to deliver some groceries to their houses." The idea of Haru by his side is nerve-wracking, but at the same time, comforting. Provided he can keep his cool and not do, or say, anything weird, it might be really nice. Shopping together... did mom and dad do anything like that?

Pulling the bucket out of the well with one hand is difficult, but Chunjiro finds himself hesitant to let go of Haru's hand. He enjoys the touch, simple as it may be. It's hard to tell what she's thinking right now, not that Chunjiro has ever been good at that, but he hopes she isn't put off by it. He doesn't want to spill water everywhere and make a fool of himself, though, so he reluctantly lets go of her (tiny!) hand to lift the bucket out.

"Oof," he mumbles, staggering to the side slightly. It's always a bit too heavy... "Yeah, I shared a room with all my brothers ever since I was young, and not a big room either... I bet you got a lot more privacy." Come to think of it, Haru's mother died when she was young, right? So it was just her and her father... a very different and perhaps lonely childhood than Chunjiro's lively, chaotic household. If that's the way she was raised, he wonders if it would overwhelm her, to be the center of attention of six young ones and his slightly overbearing parents. He bets his mother would like her. His dad too. And the kids...

I want to be the one to like her the most, though.

Chunjiro blushes. What a bold thought. Haru wants to meet his family, therefore he shouldn't feel as if something special is getting taken away from him. There's nothing to be uneasy about.

"I'm sure they would love to meet you," Chunjiro answers, walking back to the kitchen to boil the water for rice. "Maika, my mom, my dad... Takeru too, he loves a pretty girl," he adds, then realizes he inadvertently called her pretty and falls silent. More importantly, this feeling in his chest, it won't go away. What's it called? When you want to keep someone to yourself?

...Jealousy?

WIP for otome game rp
this reminds me of a certain never-ending ikea....
Thanks and okay! I'll look forward to it!
2 notes: Chunjiro was scared of women as a kid so this is all new and confusing to him. I picked the Edo period as the setting, because it was a time of relative peace for samurai and the technology is like... kind of advanced? So some plumbing, stoves, etc. Though, since they're in a rural area, they have a well. :D
