HELLO. Long Story Short, I Need A Bit Of Help. I Live In An Apartment With My Mom And We Are Both Currently

My demons and I are a packaged deal, my heart even comes with a custom seal.

(via forever-deep-in-thought)

me softly: kenshin in k.ny as a pillar / hashira using ‘dragon-breathing’ incorporating  hiten mitusurugi-ryu, literally with the name ‘heavenly’ in it because he’d undoubtedly be on par with anyone and also a mentor among them as well as being one of the oldest members besides himejima if not older, and being known as the dragon pillar / dragon hashira with quite a background / reputation of excellence and if not for his kindly nature outside war, intimidating.   also me: kenshin being a mixture of his younger self and present self in order to fit the setting and also because he’s at literal war with the demons alongside his other fellow pillars, while being shrouded in mystery because no one knows who is his master / trainer, only whispers, and every time a demon is felled by his blade it’s very, very quick they forget how devastating the attack was. but also having a really open and accepting opinion of demons who are fighting their natures like tamayo and showing their human hearts, suffering from intense empathy despite killing them, possibly knowing the fifth water breathing form of  ‘blessed rain after the drought’ which he physically humbled himself to know the form from quite possibly urokodaki or giyuu if only to know a technique that puts them peaceably out of their misery out of sheer agony of the heart despite not erring in his path.  also me: he kind of scares the other ( smart ) pillars because no one knows what’s behind that smile unless they actually really know him. that and how is someone so short that insanely powerful and the smart ones really know better than to see him turn that might on them, which he’d never. i think he wouldn’t approve of all of oyakata-sama’s actions especially the last bit, and actually be quite angered and for this reason it’s likely he isn’t made aware because who wants to anger a dragon, right? me again: kenshin actually willing to take on a tsuguko. someone naturally has to have some level of god-speed, maybe not on par with kenshin’s or hiko’s terrifying levels but enough to match the beauty, raw power, colossal speed and terror of his style, a speed shared by wind pillars or at least a close margin. i mean we have a snake pillar i don’t see why a dragon isn’t possible! if not a tsuguko, him just imparting some wisdom that is just life oriented. me: kenshin surviving but at what cost :) by the time the infinity fortress arc is completed kenshin has completed the cross shaped scar. 

please reblog this if it's okay for me to just pop into your ask box to RP with you even if you haven't reblogged a meme because I just want to RP with you

😔 mayu suzukaze literally being every aspect of kenshin is just iconic, the inflections, the delicacy turning to fierceness, the shift between every aspect of kenshin’s facades and inner turmoils to true core emotions is just  😔 😔  and it really fits how seemingly ‘delicate’ in physique outside (beneath his gi he’s quite muscled without being bulky (which lends itself to his shinsoku / godspeed )  kenshin appears despite having incredible arm strength / leg strength for his height of 5′2 and really no one that practices hiten mitsurugui-ryu is going to be able to uphold it without having it - and also paying for it like any human being in the most realistic sense.

the first live action film demonstrates and confirms that kenshin doesn’t need to use his sakabato to be able to pulverize and curb-stomp you and then take you to the doctor in less than a minute ! !!! but seriously props to mayu for voicing someone who’s such a fictional legend / icon and doing it insanely well when i imagine the role would feel intimidating due to kenshin’s considerable fame as a character and protagonist / hero.

frankly i also am vastly impressed in general by sato takeru, who i think the pressure would especially be intimidating if it he wasn’t so joyful about kenshin as a whole embodying all my expectations and wishes of kenshin’s mannerisms and my own headcanons confirmed / perspectives, so i also like his voice as well as much as hers. but there is a nostalgia in mayu, and always will be, so i think it’s a blend of both in a sense? 

i love how even his voice is complex and a thing in itself. it dips from soft and dulcet to low and fearsome, to formal to going ‘yup!’ in the most unexpected moments or ‘huh’? i watched some episodes today since tumblr i read was really glitched this month so it will take a while likely for me to get some of my images up when you hover over my url for me, lily, to see so i’ll be slow here since it’s mildly irksome, but not unbearable! 

my first headcanon since...eight months will be about the red gi . i honestly don’t think it’s realistic that he could afford such a fine red gi when it’s heavily implied and outright stated he can’t afford an inn so i’ll take some liberties from the films.

Tomoe, do you remember? The iris. It gives off its strongest scent in the rain. Even if it is a rain of blood.

verses / possible verses list.

Verses to work on / establish that aren’t canon. Please note if you read these they won’t by any means come immediately, as I am exploring new things to my canon and exploring even further the rich history of the Edo / Meiji Period while writing in two notebooks . 

Fire Em.blem

Fate. (5′2 freakishly powerful Saber)

KNY. (Dragon Pillar? Dragon Pillar.)

Fina.l Fantasy.

Harvest Mo.on.

Modern Verses ‘Happy’ and ‘Tragic Past’ versions.

Deity Verse. ( Kenshin as Hachiman / Yawata no Kami. )

Tentative Okami Verse.

Things I want to make verses for but I Need To Go Through Them First: - Hakuouki , I admit Kenshin’s title of ‘Demon of Kyoto’ by Saito loosely parsed being used literally would be fascinating and even more terrifying than his 14-19 year old self in the Bakumatsu.  I hope I have some kind of platform for this because it’d make a nice present sometime. - Sailor M.oon. Frankly I have no idea how I’d incorporate this save have Kenshin be a freakishly powerful bodyguard / entity / something that helps out the girls while also holding their proverbial flower. Bleach: Eventually! With all politeness, Bleach’s length is a bit too much for me sometimes despite me really really enjoying it! and while I remember admiring deeply the character’s personalities / nuances, I never finished it. I’d like to be able someday to find time and give it that justice. For me, I’d make two different verses based on Kenshin being a shinigami that does lose his memory and one that as a friend helped with on my OG blog, is akin to Ich.igo in that he is still alive. 

note: this will be edited as more ideas come to mind. if you think of a verse that this legend would fit into that i haven’t though of, please by all means, drop a comment or suggestion, i love immersion!

Bodies are supposed to be TEMPLES, right ? In my defense, marble is marble and stone is stone. In my defense, nobody ever taught me that I could be HOLY. In my defense, I’m the GRAVEYARD and not the dead. 

                                         I AM A CATHEDRAL OF ALMOST-LOVERS,                                            HERE IS YOUR ALTAR FOR WORSHIP. ♡ 

Sometimes suffering is just suffering. It doesn’t make you stronger. It doesn’t build character. It only hurts.
