EMOTIONS / FEELINGS: 001: openness. he says what he wants and does what he wants no matter who he is dealing with. entitlement means nothing to him. he will not restrict himself. 002: rubatosis. the unsettling awareness of one’s own heartbeat—he often listens to the thrums of his core, the strong echo of life and the electric currents of adrenaline present in his veins. 003: mischief. he wants to play, to trick, to mess with others. he wants amusements in his life. he treats everything as if it is a game.  004: protectiveness. a strong sense of living and dying for others, shielding his loved ones from harm’s way and guarding them from the world’s pains, only to destroy the agony in its entirety. 005: eccentricity. strange and unconventional manners and traditions drive his body, mind, and soul. he walks a path not yet explored; he marches to his own drumbeat.

GREETINGS: 001: smiling widely. he is exuberant most of the time, he wants to show his happiness to the world. 002: waving wildly. he will wave down a friend or ally from a distance, making it known he wishes to speak with them. 003: calling out loudly. he does not care for any social repercussions—he wants to let his voice be heard.

COLORS: 001: orange—any shade of orange, but mostly that found in a beautiful sunset, as well as the variety found in lantern lights and in his hair. 002: red—blood, blood, blood. one of the many shades of inari okami; the hue of various streaks in his fur; the shade of violence and petulance in his eyes. 003: white—another color of inari, it represents innocence. it is his fur in his enhanced form, pearly and impeccable. it is the gleam of vulpine fangs in a smile.  004: navy blue—his initial clothes, his scarf, his gloves. a contrast with orange, a symbol or evidence pointing to his style and sensibility.  005: black—not as prominent, but visible nonetheless. he sees it mostly in the eyes of his prey, his enemies. streaks of darkness can sometimes be found on him, only to disappear in the light’s display.

SCENTS: 001: perfume. he loves loves loves self-care and douses himself in good smelling aromas. more often than not he chooses fragrances of flowery or fruity smells. 002: soap. similar to perfume, he does bathe very very often. he smells like cleanliness and bathhouses, like salts and scrubs in excess. 003: sunshine. he is a being of light, born to high peaks so as to become closer to the ever-shining star. he smells like warm days and comfort. 004: silk. a soft and sweet smell, closely related to fresh linen but somehow more luxurious despite his wild lifestyle.  005: flowers. he admires their beauty, he picks them at times. he lays in fields and under trees and smells so much like the fauna—like the earth’s little laughs which sprout in full.

CLOTHING: 001: haori, traditional wear of his ethnicity. usually sleeveless. initial form bears blue-schemed haori which is the base of his fashion. enhanced form bears white haori with red patterns, which also is the base of the rest of his fashion.  002: long-sleeved undershirt, to give him more skin coverage with his haori. matches the haori in color scheme, usually. 003: fitted (not tight) pants which reach his ankles. matching color scheme with all of his clothes.  004: scarf which is seen on his person at all times. at first, the scarf is falling apart with dark blue and cream yellow threads fraying out. by the time he reaches his stronger form, the scarf is renewed with white and red thread.  005: shin & arm guards which help protect him from blunt attacks. they serve more as formality since he often fights in his fox form.

OBJECTS: 001: beast stone of bright colors which helps to contain his power and allows him to transform between human and fox form. 002: scarf which he never leaves behind. counts as clothing as well but he loves it so. 003: shoes which he wears often, they are traditional makes called zori. 004: ornate hair comb which he has received from his mother long ago. it is a prized possession which he uses often for self-care. it is adorned in pearls and silver. 005: a small hand-mirror gifted to him by his father. it is a token received from harmless humans, and the mirror serves its normal purpose, as well as an occasional reminder for Nishiki to “remember who he truly is”.

VICES / BAD HABITS: 001: laughing & smiling too often. he is a cheery fool and shows it with enthusiasm. 002: naivety. while he is cultured in his own sense he is very behind on the times and does not understand humans and their traditions.  003: easily trusting of others. while he is cunning and witty, he can also be quite dumb and simply take others for their words. a truly secretive person can hide many intentions from him. outside of battle/war he is very, very foolish and often does favors for people even when they did not ask. 004: objectifying and/or triviliazing death/murder/violence. he has become so desensitized to it that it no longer bothers him as it once did. he still detests his kind being hurt or killed off, but he will also easily tear humans to shreds. 005: lying. a contrast to his naive state of mind, he is a clever liar and can hide things easily. he can and will make a fool out of others for his own sake. 

BODY LANGUAGE: 001: hands on hips, showing his playfulness and arrogance. 002: tail wagging or swaying back and forth. rapid movements can imply excitement or nervousness, while slower movements can imply comfortableness or thoughtfulness. 003: head held high, he is prideful and vain but also confident and straightforward. he knows himself. 004: ears perking often. a forward incline may imply shyness, while straightening and rising upward shows awareness and/or happiness. a downward movement may show displeasure or the occasional sadness. 005: arms are never shielding him (crossed, holding one arm with the other, etc.) they are always at his side or open. he does not try to defend himself against others in casual conversation.

AESTHETICS: 001: sunrises or sunsets, casting light and shadow over the world. 002: forested area or mountains, with heavy trees and winding trails. 003: secrecy in every form—a hidden village, a mysterious scarf, an unknown smirk. 004: fire in the forms of floating flames, guiding lights which hover at his side in his true form. 005: a shrine of old shinto deity, a temple of worship and legends of old.

Hey folks! I logged on to say that activity should pick up over the next few weeks or so. In case it doesn’t (because I only have like, what, 3-4 weeks of classes left this semester?) I’m here to state that my blog is still somewhat on a (semi) hiatus. While I’ll be lurking here and there, I will actually be more present here than I was for the past several weeks! 

That being said, I’ll most likely check in once a while and get some drafts + asks done, too. Not a whole lot of progress will be made on my end, but just some to hopefully try and make up for my absence! uvu Of course, that is the last thing I plan to do (considering hw + studying and whatnot) but I anticipate on slowly but surely revitalizing my momentarily dormant blog.
