shinjuro-rengoku-ask Anonymous asked: As night time falls just as the sun sets there's a scratching on the roof. Then a thump. I slowly push open the door mostly unfazed by wisteria incense. Sitting crouched and silent ready to spring up if I see him. My tongue hangs out and drips drool into a small puddle on the floor. @koorogi-final-selection-oni-a shinjuro-rengoku-ask answered: Shinjuro was up late, the warmer weather made it hard for him to sleep and he gave up, leaving his room to fetch himself a glass of waters, hoping it would cool him down. A strange sensation flooded his sense, one he hadn’t felt in quite sometime. Perhaps he was imagining it, perhaps the heat had gotten to him, though he was positive he heard something, and could hear dripping. His guard was up as he walked to the kitchen. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a I follow behind him quietly and stand in the doorway of the kitchen "Hey! you thought you chased me off? Well I came back. Cause I knew you seemed familiar. You were the guy who put me in that wisteria hell prison to die!" My lip curls into a snarl and my tongue flicks drool at him shinjuro-rengoku-ask He knew something was off, his neutral expression quickly turning sour as he turned around. He glared at the demon, though he was a little confused, “I’m sorry, do I know you? I don’t recall putting you up there.” He didn’t, he really didn’t remember. How many years had it been since he last put a demon on that mountain? “Ew…” he moved to wipe the drool off of his leg, with one hand, while another slowly reached into the drawer behind him. “Anyway, what do you want? Do you really think I won’t put you back there?” koorogi-final-selection-oni-a "You don't remember? it was traumatic as hell for me just like the last time we met! But I'm in the mood for some fun now." I leap up with one arm up, stabbing the ceiling with my spikes and hanging there. Then bap him on top of the head with my feet a few times, hard but not knocking him out more in a taunting way. "Try me! If I went back there I could see if my old escape route still there too!" shinjuro-rengoku-ask He twitched with annoyance, Shinjuro had no patience for this demon. He wasn’t afraid, just insulted. “Traumatic you say? And all this time you’ve been thinking of me? I’m flattered,” he mocked, grabbing hold of the knife he was reaching for. It was sharp, but it wouldn’t be able to kill the demon. In one swift motion, he ducked, and swiped at the demon’s foot with the knife. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a It cuts a gash to the bone which bleeds, I kick him in the head harder as my foot starts to heal. I jump down from the ceiling on top of him crouched on his shoulders.. "Where's your sword old man? The one you almost killed me with?" I screech with excitement, gash his chest with my claws and let acidic drool drop into the wounds, which feels like lemon juice shinjuro-rengoku-ask He winces, not expecting such a harsh kick, he struggles to throw the demon off of him, slashing away with the knife in his hand whenever he could. “How about you let me grab it and this time, I’ll finish the job.” He tried not to wince or scream out. Senjuro was asleep in his room, and he wanted to keep the commotion to a minimum. This attack was nothing he couldn’t handle. The old man mad an effort to throw the demon off of him, a desperate need to put space between him and the creature. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a He slashes into my neck a few times making my head flop backwards. I stop and jump back for a minute trying to see what I'm even doing as the flesh starts to try to reconnect. I heal a little faster than last time since I got a meal in. But still slow. Enough for him to possibly run. Though I do reach out to try to grab him. shinjuro-rengoku-ask He didn’t stop to assess the damage. So long as he had done enough, he was happy. Shinjuro bolted down the hall and towards his room, he didn’t look back, nor did he stop, he ran for his sword, one he kept within reach at all times, just incase something like this happened. He unsheathed it, ready to do what he should have done all those years ago. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a I bolt outside, making some late night traveller scream. Then charge at them, push them down, knock them out, chew on them a little bit to drink blood then decide to use them as a hostage and human shield. I bring them to the door like a cat bringing prey, showing off what i did and lapping up blood. Just as he's back with his sword my neck finishes reconnecting back together shinjuro-rengoku-ask He stood still, staring at the demon, “Let them go, and I’ll make your death painless.” The old man refused to to back down, gripping his sword tightly. He didn’t want the bystander to come to harm, but he couldn’t back down, he couldn’t allow himself to be killed. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a He can tell that I'm shaking. Why did I come back though that was kind of stupid. maybe figuring he would hunt me down anyway. I keep my grip on my hostage human but don't dare make any moves. "Hehheh....maybe if I get you, or even escape a third time they'll let me be a lower moon. I'm not gonna back down after everything I've already done!" I put my head close to the human's so if he tries to kill me he has to kill them too, my eyes dart from him to the open door shinjuro-rengoku-ask He observed the creature for a moment, silently cursing himself for being too slow. He hated to admit it, but he was retired and old, and no where close to prime fighting condition. “Do you truly believe Muzan would allow you to become a lower moon just for that? I don’t believe the cowardly act of using a bystander as a shield is favourable with those in his ranks. If you want to fight, then face me head on.” He positioned himself in a fighting stance. He was confident in his abilities to kill a lowly demon such as this, but the bystander made things complicated. koorogi-final-selection-oni-a "GRRR FINE!!!!" I drop the unconscious guy and charge at him with my arm spikes trained on his face. Leaping up above him and coming down with a stabbing motion.
