Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

Does anyone need more information about what's inside to post?
Kaguya-hime


The conversation as Benienma lead her into the fast food location was... well, calling it bizarre wouldn't be entirely correct. It was quite normal for people to discuss her in passing; almost expected even. That this Master was apparently worried about being eaten... had she worked out her original nature? That was an impressive achievement if that was the case, but on the other hand... if she ''had'' worked it out, then she should know that Kaguya was in no way likely to try and make her into a snack.

"Oh, I meant to come to this establishment from the outset," she said, having accompanied the apparent young girl inside. This... fox was Suzuka Gozen? Was something about her broken? The speech patterns, the outfit... well, history showed that she hadn't been the best at keeping to her assigned role anyway. Maybe it was just in her nature to incarnate improperly and cause trouble.

She gave the strange Servant and her Master a polite smile, introducing herself, "I am Princess Kaguya."
Low on spoons? It's actually forks I have a problem with...
  • Name: Ibaraki Akari
  • Age: 16
  • Gender: Female
  • Race: Oni
  • Appearance: She's definitely on the short side... and the completely flat side. Akari is one of those highschool students (technically) that everyone eagerly mistakes for a middle school student. At best.
  • Personality: Everyone expects an oni to be brash, confident (at least until defeated), and rowdy. At the very least you expect them to be loud or somehow aggressive. This is all completely untrue of Akari, who is happiest communicating with everyone via technology rather than in person, and would much like to be back in her room undisturbed. Even when you get past the extreme shyness by enough association or shared interests, she's still meek, worried about her own strength, and disturbingly skittish. With an extra irrational fear of samurai, which is definitely a bit odd for a girl who's worn traditional clothing every day of her life until she was forced to start attending school again.
  • Abilities: Akari is a shockingly powerful oni, for someone that has had no reason to exercise her natural abilities to any extent. Despite her unimposing physique, there are very few people who are going to be winning if it's simply a contest of pitting strength against one another. She's about as difficult to seriously injure; blunt force is mostly useless without some serious strength behind it, and simply cutting her often requires magical assistance or massive force. Plus, like her mother, if it's not cut off entirely it will doubtless heal fine, and losing limbs would be more of a (physical) inconvenience than life-threatening.
    Although she hasn't any practice at using it, Akari has inherited Ibaraki's affinity for Heat--not just heat in the direct sense, but heat as a driving force for changes. It's this affinity that led Ibaraki-douji so easily to shapeshifting, and allows for just reattaching missing body parts later.
  • Skills: None of any particular use! She's actually rather clumsy, which is bad because of the strength that comes from being an oni. This also extends to a tendency to trip on things and fall down stairs, though that's more disorienting and worrying for people watching rather than actually dangerous to Akari.
  • Equipment: "Mum said I should bring an iron club if something dangerous happens..." She also has a phone, "a little spending money" day to day--that is, enough money that anything of interest to a sixteen year old oni is fine--and a perfectly-accurate seeming ID that nevertheless claims Akari to be an adult, because oni and alcohol are inseparable. Obviously, the club is inappropriate for school.
  • Brief Backstory: As her name attests, Akari is closely related to the Ibaraki-douji. Extremely closely; Ibaraki is her mother and Akari doesn't have the faintest clue who her father is. This, in and of itself, makes her the closest thing a rowdy bunch like oni can have to royalty--and also, with the benefit of being born into an extremely small family that has had a thousand years of practice avoiding danger and past banditry, used to the wealth that implies.
    Akari spent most of her childhood in a very traditional home, essentially secluded from the non-supernatural world, and told all the supernatural stories one might expect. Of course, the viewpoint was skewed--the role of hero and villain constantly inverted, with the samurai and exorcists vilified for going after oni that were only acting according to their natural desires and compulsions. Given the obvious problems that a supernaturally strong child with some innate drive to prey on humanity could fall into, this also meant a distinct lack of school attendance.
    They moved to a more modern house, one actually positioned conveniently for school, when it was time for Akari to start middle school. After attending for a few days, she just... stopped, the ease with which she had accidentally hurt someone in sports and the pressure of pretending to be human--on top of her own limited experience with so many people--just overwhelming the young oni. Although she somewhat kept up with the schoolwork, a large amount of Akari's time has instead found itself devoted to popular entertainment--light novels, anime, and so on.
    Ibaraki is hardly someone one would expect to be an experienced parent... or skilled at addressing this in a manner more appropriate than "fight it out", which would hardly help in this situation, so she mostly left her be until it was time for high school--and made sure to get an exemption from gym classes this time. Akari isn't happy to be in school at all, but she's been roped into a club that seemingly won't let her just stay away... and at least there's no worry about accidentally hurting people in physical activities.

I didn't know that you predicted posting shitty gifs and had to make it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Tyaethe Radistirin


Tyaethe hummed to herself as the lookout was summarily dispatched, her only concession to their location appearing to be a dagger filched from somewhere. Master of her sword she might be, but the paladin was well aware at how such a long weapon could prove less than ideal in confined spaces--though from the wealth and prestige of the Cal family throughout the years, she expected that the mausoleum was going to be anything but cramped once they got inside.

"As is their wont, the defiler lurks away from the moon and sun, hoping that the Goddesses' reach is but that beneath the sky," the apparent child said, swinging her blade to rest on one shoulder again, the words halfway between a recital and a prayer, "But all that ever was touched by Their light carries it within them. And to those that would pervert the dead to foul cause, we carry the solar fire to cleanse and purify, the lunar waters to wash away the lurking taint. To the dead we bring the stillness and crushing weight of the deepest sea; for the living we rescue the gentle warmth of the sun."

Red eyes looked up at Gerard, then back towards the open door. "Don't forget we're here to rescue, Segremors."
I'll post tomorrow.
