❛ i’d really rather not fight, if you don’t mind. i come in peace, as they so often say. i’m rather weak too you know, so it wouldn’t be much of a fight and more of a waste of time. ❜ a hand is thrown up in defense.
in his mind the demon stirs, a mental effort is taken to sooth the voice. hand grips his cane tightly, placing pressure against the stick. to an outsider it appears as if it were a normal cane, but to him it throbs and it aches and it wishes for more and more bloodshed. but who ever heard of a darkin cane? ❛ if you’d like i can read you some poetry instead? ❜ lips upturn into a lopsided smirk, clearly something was up his sleeve, but it surely wasn’t something that would be harmful to the vastayan. provided urizen cooperated with him.
@feyquil said anyone!
his logic is impeccable. weak individual should not be engaged, not out of courtest, but fear that, if engaged, there would be no joy or entertainment acquired from such an easy battle ——— or even worse, should he act careless & commit an unplanned blunder, then perceived weak individual may find an opening to beat him & claim victory, then who would be weak !? HIM, HIM !!!
❛ poetry ? ❜ rakan hummed inquisitively, arms crossed over chest as ceruleans shift their gaze towards the soft earth at feet. wow, is it just him, or is it a lot greener than it was yesterday !? he swore that the day before current situation, the grass at his feet was a subdued green. could it be that the greener greenery around them could be attributed to the blesséd rain that poured —— wait, what was the question again ? ❛ uh, you said you were gonna do something, read ? yeah, sure, do whatever you want ! ❜
unprompted. / always accepting !!
@quartlet said : i am here to bullie you
u want what i have!!! that’s why u bully me, sweetheart! 😤😤😤
xayah/rakan for a prompt
im discussing this w/ @prodigal-ezreal but. sg rakan ( pre-corruption ) is just not good at getting hints FDLJHJHDK like if u have a crush on him there’s a high chance he Won’t Know You Do and that’s that on that.
K & R
K : KISS. is your muse a good kisser? why / why not?
i like to think rakan’s a good kisser! but this comes mostly from my own speculation that he’s like…….got experience w/ it from how much of a charmer he is, if that makes sense? there’s those kisses he’s had that didn’t really mean anything, and then there’s the kisses he’s shared with xayah that mean the world to him – both require a different level of skill, i like to think. one’s meaningful, deep, and the other might be more hedonistic in nature than it is significant to him. that skill comes with the experience of him being a good kisser, though!
R : ROMANCE. is your muse a romantic or a cynic?
i think this one’s a bit obvious, but he’s very much a romantic in every sense of the word! he’s got an idea of what his love is and what it means to be romantic and in love which can, of course, lead to a very idealized ( or romanticized, you could say ) idea of how to act when he’s in love. it’s……excessively sweet if i’m honest, and kinda cheesy, but. it’s how he’s best able to convey those feelings! thank u for coming to my ted talk as to why rakan is such a romantic

THE MAN I WAS — I KILLED HIM FIRST!
highly selective . slow activity
boss. /// halvett.
BANTER SUCH AS THIS IS commonplace in the life of a pit fighter ; the type of clothing he wears , whether hewn from rough fabric or fine silk , means nothing but the end of one battle and the beginning of another . ( Being clad in luxury matters little in the face of a living , breathing challenge ———— and agile , glib and witty as Rakan may be , Sett will respond to his taunts with a smile . ) “ Do I now ? ” he responds , matching Rakan’s sneer with a fanged one of his own . “ Think my track record says enough about my strength , don’t’cha think ? Oh , but wait —— I forget you don’t keep track of that kinda thing . ” He shifts , takes a single step towards Rakan to make to invade his personal space , posture the perfect mix of arrogant and playful . Two can play at this game , and dancing is nothing if not another form of combat . “ I could set up a demonstration in the ring if you’re willin’ to dance , pretty boy . ”
HOW A SMILE CAN CONVEY delicacy in its most rich forms, how it is attributed to moments of peace & dulcet times where chaos had been so denied entrance to maintain this conjured serenity. but what of those smiles whose purpose is to taunt, whose sole purpose is to stir chaos, to invoke a muse that shall witness acts of violence, dutifully performed for naught but entertainment. ( this was fun, this was a show, & though two may stand center stage, rakan is beauty's gift upon the world. sett is yet another face in rakan's audience. )
❛ do you know who you're talking to ? ❜ not once does he falter in the face of danger, even as he comes closer, there is no reason to lose upright posture ; no, rakan challenges him, he is one to always smirk & laugh in the face of adversity !! laugh, laugh he does, not hearty, as it's a mere chuckle. the boss of the pits must know the truth : he does not fear him, especially when one wishes to duel him in his own craft. ( that ... is what he meant, right ? ) ❛ rakan, charmer, best dancer in all of ionia. seriously, challenging me to a dance, you sure about that ? i thought fighting was more your style, but who am i to deny anyone a dance !? ❜ hyped up, step forward, preparing himself for supposed dance battle. he was here to fight, but this works, too !
date, flirt, and heart for the hc meme xP
D : DATE. what is your muse’s ideal date? where / who with / etc?
answered that over here! but i forgot to mention: dinner. please. have dinner with him.
F : FLIRT. is your muse good at flirting? how do they flirt?
i like to think rakan’s good at flirting! albeit a little cheesy if i’m honest with you. it borders being way too sappy, and it can get really lovey dovey but it can also be bold and he’ll straight up call you sexy and call that flirting. to sum it all up: if you can kick his ass, he’ll flirt with you. but, i like to think some of his flirting can be genuine and some of it is just to have fun. u know!
H : HEART. is your muse quick or slow to give their heart away?
i’m not……….sure so let me try to answer this as best i can. i look at his lore n i’m like ok! he was intrigued by xayah and followed her for a while before he ended up falling in love with her. he took his time to understand her and her ideals before he gave his heart to her. and i think that means he’s slow to give his heart? in the same breath, i do want to think he can be easy to give his heart away because his voice line when he kills her is literally just “i am single now!” and i’m like FDLJHDGKLF SO! it’s really gray i’ll say. if you can hook him, maybe he’ll give it a little quicker, little slower. what’s more important is how genuine it is, whether or not he views you through rose colored lenses before giving you his heart or acknowledging your flaws too.
