She was getting nervous, despite telling herself that he would surely appear. Although he had confused her on their first meeting, what Yukimura-sama said at the Ten versus Ten matches before lingered on Isanami’s mind; despite what Sanada Nobuyuki came off as, he was a good person. Therefore, though she fidgeted in place at the gate, sounds of heavy footsteps had the FORMER priestess turning to greet the approaching person.
When his first words were, well, that ― she couldn’t help but smile. It was not like her past smiles that were bright and full of LIFE, but? It was the first time she had felt amused in such a long time.
Nonetheless, Isanami bows at her waist to the Lord. It felt good to see a familiar face, even when they were not that well acquainted. And seeing him gave her more hope that everyone else was still alive. ❛ Nobuyuki-san. I’m sorry for this sudden intrusion. ❜ In fact, she had many things she needed to APOLOGIZE for. After everything that happened though, where could she start? She had so many questions… so many things she wished to ask of the person whom was her best lead right now. ❛ I’m… glad to see you are well. ❜
A bit of guilt TWISTS into her heart. She probably wouldn’t even need to ask that, had Izanami not inflicted so many wounds on him, using him as “bait”. She wondered if she was overstepping her bounds. She, who had caused so much grief in everyone’s lives, to be here and wanting information on them. ❛ If it would not trouble you… could we talk? I know I’m not your retainer or anything. You don’t owe me anything, in fact, I do owe you much more than what I could ever pay you back for. But… ❜
She tilts her head up, looking upon the stern older brother of the Sanada family with desperation. ❛ I don’t know what else I could do. Where else I could go. Ueda is gone and people say Yukimura-sama is dead and I don’t ― ❜ Her voice cracks and she cuts her words off IMMEDIATELY. She didn’t want to cry, not when she was already troubling Nobuyuki-san with her presence. ❛ I-I’m sorry. Please… give me a moment. ❜ The former priestess brought her sleeves up, pressing them at her face. Hah, even if she thought she had changed, being so prone to her emotions would probably stay with her forever.
The ELDER Sanada simply stares at the other – dumbfounded by her sudden appearance after 10-YEARS. So much had happened in that time, so much had changed, and yet? Suddenly, a figure from the past appears at his doorstep. Someone who had been SEALED in the realm of the d e a d.
Most would figure that would be the last time they would see someone. Even Izanagi hadn’t been successful in retrieving someone from YOMI, as she’d been far too changed. And that – was the goddess that now resided in their own realm. The one who had been reincarnated as this young girl. A STORY he would have been reluctant to believe – at best, when his brother had finally filled him in on this… if it wasn’t for the fact that he had been taken HOSTAGE by the vengeful goddess herself.
“… if you want to speak to me, we should head inside. I can have a room prepared so that we may speak in private.” Nobuyuki finally says, after a few moments of just listening to the other talk. Snapping out of his confusion and deciding he needed to act.
They should talk. He had some questions himself, but? First and foremost, he needed to bring her inside… She looked exhausted. So? Quickly he ushered out some orders, before turning around. Gesturing with his hand to tell her to come along. “I’m… sure you do have a lot of questions and concerns. I’m willing to hear them out, it’s alright. I have nothing more pressing going on right now.” He was a busy man – and he was in the middle of things. However? This took precedence given the situation at hand. “You can have as long as you need to calm yourself when we’re out of the open. I understand being overwhelmed. Please, take as much time as you need here…”
He would gesture towards the common room, giving quick orders to keep people away from this area – though to fetch some tea and some food for his guest. She looked like she’d traveled a long way, and it wasn’t likely that she had stopped anywhere. So? With that, he just gestures towards the room. A silent invitation for the other to sit down somewhere. It was hardly prepared for guests, but? The Lord of Numata was improving for now.
❛ KAMANOSUKE!!!! Have you ever sneezed so hard that you knocked down a tree or something? ❜
The moment she started yelling he knew this conversation wasn’tgoing to go well – he could feel himself cringing visibly at the others obnoxiousyell. Not to mention, when it finally “CLICKED” to the Brave of Wind what she’djust asked???
Annoyance shows visibly in his features.
Really? Really?? RE A L L Y? ? ?
These were the sorts of things he was going to waste histime with now? ( And let me premise this with: And they have been getting along– well, okay??? Lately? ) “Seriously, bitch? You hunt me down, screamat me, and asked me something that goddamned stupid?” Welp, their goodstreak can’t last forever – if they don’t have moments like this every once anda while? The rest of the BRAVES would wonder who these imposters are.
“Have you ever sneezedso hard you put out the goddamned sun? Have you? Because whatever your fuckinganswer is? Then you know the fucking answer! Now get out of here before I kickyour ass!” Kamanosuke has become a bit better in the teamwork department.And? To be fair, the two of them have gotten along surprisingly well for the last while – it was about time one of themblew up.

The “Saint of Swamps,” Chamo is uniquely gifted … Even for a Saint. She is absurdly powerful and very adapt to using her abilities. Even being known for accidentally killing a man during a tournament. Because of this, people often avoid her and fear her. After all: She isn’t exactly someone people can get after easily … making her hard to discipline or teach any sort of particular set of rules, or how to treat people.
When Chamo was chosen, she wasn’t surprised. And? Her parents were quick to pack her up and send her on her way with a map, and less then a few words of encouragement. Even they feared her, and were apt to having her out of the house. So? Without a second thought, when she received her mark? She went of to join who were supposed to be her companions.
Though it is common knowledge that those who are chosen don’t always live - Chamo managed to. It had been a long, difficult, battle. The things that happened in the “Wailing Demon Territory” will never quite leave her. She’d always hoped to have friends - and those she’d bonded with there? Were the only people she wanted to see nowadays. It was rare for people to come to trust her… and even rarer for her to find people she could trust. She’s happy to talk about her adventures to those who will listen. But? She’s chosen a quiet lifestyle, just outside of society.
Chamo Rosso is the “Tree Frog” Role-Holder - A unique, yet unattached, neutral role-holder. A traveler and unconnected to any particular land or territory. She is frequently on her own, preferring her own company over that of others. After all: Chamo cannotbe around people often. Touching others, coming into contact with their skin, can cause people to be poisoned by her - and depending on her mood, depends on the poison or toxic. When she’s happy, it is hallucinogenic. When she is angry, it can be lethal. And? most people don’t want to risk it. Of course, you’d need to be in contact with her for a long time for the effects to be serious… But? Most don’t want to take that chance.
World’s most awkward human being tries to learn to human more by hanging around his friends Ikki and the Heroine. He’s not great about it sometimes, and he’s awfully busy, but he somehow finds time for them regardless. ( And Math. He’s always got time for math. In fact? He’s probably got too much time for math. )

( A professional “Honey Pot” assassin, and a surprisingly young one at that - she was picked to be the back-up for the children. Someone who was supposed to come in, and finish the job. Instead? She was hired as something of a language expert. And? Despite being fed up with it, almost immediately? She eventually welcomed the idea. Even becoming fond of the kids… though? She certainly doesn’t care for the nickname they’ve given her. )
A cool-headed killer, and a professional at it, Irina is good at what she does. Often hired to infiltrate, at least for a time, get their guard down and then kill her targets? She’s infamous for getting the job done, even in very difficult situations - such as high profile, multiple witness, scenarios. She’s willing to use anyone, or anything, in her ability to get the kill. That was how she was trained. And she’s not about to give up now.
Due to the spoiler-ish nature of this verse? I will be a little vague here - Irina has switched her career path, given how everything eventually played out. And? Though it still requires she use a lot of the same skill sets she once did? She does find this job more enjoyable - after all! It is somewhat exciting to have a constant companion to pick on a little. ( Even if he just sorta tolerates her crazy some days… )
“Ah, gee. I came all this way because I heard somethin’ interesting was happening - if this is all that was about, I’mma be terribly disappointed.” The Alicein replies, sighing a little. “How ‘bout you contact me when you have a more interesting offer? Like, ta punch you in the face or somethin’ like that.”
‘Who wants to be my boyfriend?’

❖ ─ ━ ɩɴⅴеႽτɩնατοʀ Even though it wasn’t her business to ask, she was getting more concerned about his well being seeing him coming back with another injury from somewhere. She was told to stay back this time due to falling a bit behind on her reports so she had to catch up on them again. ❝Geezs, sometime along the line of how long we’ve been partners for, I’m going to lose count of how many times you walk in with injuries you know…. ❞ She sighed lightly as she walked up to him, doing a quick check if there were others. ❝I don’t know how you manage to get these wounds this time but I’m starting to get worried more about you. Let get these cleaned up before I can dress them, I should have a spare roll of bandages somewhere on my desk. ❞
To be entirely honest, Hijirihara couldn’t remember when exactly he decided to start relying on his partner more – even though he’d come to consider her a friend, there was a lot of risk in relying on her. He was a dangerous individual himself. He attracted danger, and? Well, to that end, he ended up like this. This was worse then some other times, but? It wasn’t life threatening.
He hadn’t needed help. He could have managed to bandage himself up – and yet, he’d found himself dragging his feet all the way to where he knew his partner would be. “… sorry.” Though apologizes weren’t usually a part of the awkward young man’s vocabulary, he found himself trying more. After all: He did feel bad that he worried her. . . “It’s not as bad as it looks, though?” He adds, his voice more of a question.
By comparison to how the “OTHER GUY” had looked, it wasn’t bad. Plus, some of the blood wasn’t his own…
And the other had been left hacked to pieces in the same manner that he’d left others. The other had liked to leave his victims with little humanity left – making it near impossible to identify them when found. He had done the same. As the KILLER KILLER, that was his signature. Unfortunately, however, he hadn’t accounted that the other might have a gun. Nothing about the others previous killings had hinted about the other using any sort of firearm…
“… should I start cleaning the wounds?” He asks, tilting his head ever-so-slightly at his partners comments. He could move towards the bathroom and wash himself up a bit if it would help, but somehow he felt she had a specific way she wanted him to take care of this.
Being the only kunoichi of mixed bloodlines - it can be a little difficult to live up to the legacy expected of you. Enju is related to both the Clan Leader of Koga, and her mother had been the sister of the leader to Iga. Her mixed bloodlines is looked as a symbol of peace, a final coming together of both clans, especially after what happened. However? This does mean she has a lot riding on her shoulders.
Due to this an various other things, she has spent a lot of timing training and practicing with both her friends and family - and yet? Hasn’t really been aloud to go on many missions just yet. So? There are times she’ll make rookie mistakes … or allow her heart to lead her, when she should have used her head.
Following the death of a certain person in game - Enju is forced to be on the run. She has to, after all: she can’t be forgiven for the supposed “murder” she took part in. And even if she hasn’t done anything? She can’t prove it.
So? She needs to run - it’s her only chance to really clear her name. ( By giving herself enough time for someone else to prove it had been someone else. )
An AU scenario - where she was never invited to that particular mission, and the world fell back into chaos. Shinobi and kunoichi are in high demand with the fall of peace, and wars waging even every region again. Due to this, Enju has become a regular kunoichi - and determined not to let her friends and family down? She has begun to get used to the day to day tragedy of their Clan.
Never had she realized just how much she would have to kill her own heart for this job. But? She refuses to let it go. After all? She is everyone’s hope. Their symbol of peace. And even if it kills her? She won’t stop.
( spoilers for birthright! )
When Kamui/Corrin left their family to side with their “birth” family, Leo and the others felt understandably betrayed. They’d been nothing short of family to them and when they left - they where heartbroken and betrayed. And? Their father was quick to turn on them. . . There was little they could do in the matter, rather then fight. And though they didn’t hate them, they couldn’t forgive them ether.
Later down the verse, Leo is calmed some... and due to calming down and listening to reason when approached, he is one who manages to survive the events of their leaving. Eventually becoming the next King of Nohr. A position he had never truly expected to be taking, but? He hopes to make his family proud. Both those there, and in the afterlife.
( spoilers for conquest )
When Kamui/Corrin was seperated from them all and went to Hoshido... and decided to come back, despite everything they found out? Even, eventually, bringing back their missing sibling Azura? They’re understandably relieved. Especially given what they’re told that they found out.
However - it appears that their father no longer shows them favor. It’s strange, despite proving their loyalty repeatedly, he seems particularly cruel to them. And it’s not something Leo necessarily understands, and yet? They keep trying to help their sibling prove themselves.
Following an unlikely chain of events, unfolding since the moment Hoshido and Nohr began fighting over whose sibling Kamui/Corrin was - and having them simply refuse to take ether side and leave? It’s a slow gradual process to bring both sides together. And though some are more reluctant to accept this peace then others, it does bring both sides together. Working towards a common cause.
Fire Emblem ( Crossovers ) verse! Basically - like in Hero’s or Warrior’s, they were hero’s summoned somewhere else for a cause. ( under construction )
The youngest Princess in the Kou Empire, Ren Kougyoku aims to be similar to her “sister” Hakuei and become a general princess. She’s even gone so far as to capture a dungeon in hopes of accomplishing this. And? She is rather powerful while wielding her Djinn.
She can seem a little cold and distant at first, however? When it comes down to it, that is a front to try to help her be a little more like her brothers. She can be very insecure and confused when it comes to certain things - however? Her heart it often in the right place. She neither enjoys war nor does she care for senseless violence. However? She will always prioritize protecting her family over all. Judal/Judar included.
Having stepped up to become the next Empress of the Kou Empire, she found herself in a position she’d never really... seen herself in. She’d had dreams of being a General, of supporting her family when they ascended to the throne . . . she hadn’t expected to become the Empress herself.
( under construction! )
Despite being the daughter of Koutoku, she was never discovered to be as such - so? A commoner of the Kou Empire, as well as the daughter of a prostitute, she has dreams of seeing the outside world. Which, it not normal for a citizen of the Kou Empire, let alone a young woman. She wants to see the outside world, she wants... more then this life. And she knows that if she stays here, she has little hope above following in her mothers footsteps.
Perhaps it’s time to travel the world and try her luck.
