"How dare I? I don’t think you have any right to talk back to me, Shijou.” He growled. It wasn’t often he didn’t switch personalities when he got mad, but this, unfortunately, was one of those times. He was fully aware of what he was doing, and damn did it feel good.  Lips curved, a smile twisting on his face.

"I’m not stupid, no, but I’m having far too much fun to stop now…" The blood on the other’s cheek cheered him up; he hadn’t gotten to injure another living thing in ages, usually rampaging around the district.  Now, he let the dull side of his blade trail along the other’s skin, tip grazing down the other shadow’s neck. "I wonder… your blood looks different than mine… I guess I really am that fucked up, huh? Or maybe I’m just seeing things; maybe I should check again.” 

He was serious. This guy had to be an idiot to continue making small little cuts upon his flawless, pale skin. Did he manage to really push him over the edge? As much as he wanted to make biting remarks, he could bring himself to do that when his life could be possibly in danger. Maybe he overdid it this time. As much as he didn't want to, he would have to bend his pride just this once to find a way out of this situation. There was always ways he could have revenge much later.

"You're insane..." One of his eyes closed as he winced from the pain his body was being subjected to, trying to inch away from the sword. "Stop this at once," he barked at him, trying to desperately figure out a way to stop this. "What do you want from me, huh? Money? Is that it? You peasants are all the same with your greedy nature." He should probably stop now or he will definitely be slain. He tried his best to swallow all potential insults, wanting to give the other what he wanted so he could be free from this. "Just.. tell me." He couldn't help but shudder slightly from how helpless he actually sounded, hating himself for this. It wasn't really fun being on the other side of situations like this. He hated playing the victim. "Just unhand me."

On a murderous rampage my character has cornered yours. What does your character say in 10 words or less to try and save their skin?

A click from the tongue that only sound the heir makes as the weak attempt to weak attempt to waver his resolve reached his ears. Did he not know who he was? He was a shadow, so why would he care about people his host happens to be connected to. They were not his problem, so why would he care about what they think? Maybe if they found out about his deed, they would tremble in their shoes and submit to him. Oh yes, that sounded splendid.

His hand gripped tighter around the handle of his katana, his lips curving up into a sinister smile. "Daisuke? Souji? Hah. Those are the relations that my host has, they make no difference to me." At least that’s what he tried to convince himself. "If you refuse to be my toy to use and play around with, then you are meant to be broken. There is no use for useless people like you as far as I know. I guess I can say that I am doing the world a favor."

"I will give you one more chance. Become my toy or be turned into nothing but a pool of blood underneath my feet." He lifted his katana to press against the brunet’s neck, lifting the other hand that wasn’t holding his sword to hold him against the wall. "I could care less what you choose since either would benefit me. If you are not useful, then I would rather throw you away now. Do you understand what I am staying?"

"Oh, you wanna bet? The shadow laughed, the blade of his weapon pressed gingerly against the prince’s cheek. "I wonder how much prettier the royal would look with scars? Maybe we should find out, hm?"  He asked, the blade pressing firmer now, enough to draw blood.

A hiss of pain escaped his lips once he felt the sharp edge of the blade bite into his skin, trying to realize what this feeling was that was coursing through his veins. Was it... fear? He wouldn't know due to how foreign it was. His proud nature faltered, but only for a second as he tried to harden himself. No, he couldn't weaken for the other's sake. He had to be strong even in such a situation.

"How dare you." His eyes narrowed at the other's face, lifting his pale up to brush against his face to feel warm liquid running down his cheeks. Was that... blood? With that realized, he could only feel anger and that other emotion he couldn't put his finger on. "Tch. You're not stupid enough to scar me. You wouldn't. You must be smarter than that. Even a peasant such as you should know better."

At last, he finally acquired the one thing he wanted -- his lawyer badge. Sure it took many weeks on end of running on low levels of sleep and vigorously studying his ass off, but it all seemed worth it when he had his badge in his hand. Now he was someone who was able to help people when they were in need -- exactly what he dreamed of. The feeling of accomplishment coursed through his veins, it only dawning on him that the badge would prove to be useless if he didn't use it. There was only one person that he knew that could help him and that person was--

Naruhodou.

He couldn't help but to reflect on the first moment that he met him. It was that day that he decided to be a lawyer and it was he that motivated Kou to go through such lengths for the sake of being in this profession. He promised Naruhodou that he would give him a call once he finished his studying, but now he didn't want to do that. What would be better with a surprise visit to see the expression of his face. He would be proud, wouldn't he?

So here he was, on a plane headed straight from America to Okina. Sure it was a long ride, but it all seemed worth it once he stepped foot onto his native Japan soil. He quickly checked into a hotel and put his belongings in his room before went to where he remembered the 'Wright & Co. Law Offices'. He was surely surprised when he noticed the name had changed, wondering what had made it turn into an 'Anything Agency'. Did he give up law... or?

With his curiosity piqued, he pushed through the doors to step inside. He was taken aback by the countless magic equipment laid about the office, but then he remembered that Naruhodou's daughter was a magician. That... was really cool. Lilac irises glanced up to to see a group of people in the room -- three of which were completely unfamiliar. His lips curved up into a smile as he moved to knock on the door, stepping into the room.

"Naruhodou? Remember me? It's Kou! Guess what?" He dramatically paused to add suspense, excitement clearly written on his face. "I finally got my badge! I'm a lawyer." He awaited for a response, wanting to see if he would be proud of him at all. "It was hard, but I got it."

So I might change older!Kou's faceclaim. It only dawned on me that nearly everyone uses Saruhiko as a faceclaim, so yeah! I'm going to be using Azusa Asahina from Brother's Conflict because he looks (besides his beauty mark) and acts what I think Older!Kou would be.

The afternoon showers were still around by the end of the school day. Luckily, they weren’t near as bad as earlier, but an umbrella was still needed. This may lengthen the time taken to get back home. I do hope that will not be problematic. The detective thought to herself.

>Should you acknowledge them?

I suppose conversing with another won’t bring any harm. I don’t believe I have any errands at home.  Naoto walked up to the other, placing a hand in her pocket. “Good afternoon.” She greeted. “Are you waiting for someone?”

Daisuke better not have left without him again. Grey optics glanced down at his watch as his eyebrows furrowed slightly. If he had to leave early for something, it wouldn't have hurt to at least tell him, right? Sheesh, now he looks like a guy looking for his crush at the entrance. Oh well, he might as well leave for now -- he can bitch at the soccer coach later.

Before he could bring himself to leave, he noticed a slightly familiar bluenette approach him. Prince... Detective? What could she want? His lips curved up into a smile from her greeting, laughing from her question. "I was, but not anymore. The bastard abandoned me, so screw 'im. What about you? Whatcha up to, Prince Detective?"

Family means everything to Kou. Because he was adopted and is no longer the heir because his sister was born, he tries his best to appease himself and do things that will get him noticed by his family. Quitting things that he actually likes, going to the tea ceremonies and acting as the heir on behalf of his two-year-old sister, teaching said sister things that will be useful when she becomes the Ichijou heiress -- that kind of thing. That is why he cannot risk potentially hurting his family in any way, which is why he tells Daisuke and the Protag (if they take his social link opposed to the soccer one) not to tell his parents about how he acts at school. He tries his best to hide his desires, his sexuality and anything that he knows will only make his family look at him in another way.

Image

I think Shijou-sama (Shadow!Kou) actually derives from this need to be perfect. Shadow Kou is strict about how he carries himself and how the people around him act, even controlling them so they would be able to suit his and the traditional Ichijou tastes. The only thing about Shijou-sama that really stands out, is the fact that he's more free about what he likes and he doesn't try to hold everything in like his host does. He's more okay with his sexuality and he pretty much does what he wants, much to Kou's dismay (if he ever finds out about him).

❧ describe their usual sleeping position

Since he uses his energy on everything he does, he’s usually tired when he finally gets home. He lays on his back with his eyes closed, his hands gripping on the edge of the comforter just in case if he gets cold or hot later in the night.

✜ what’s their posture like in a normal situation?

⇅ do they look up or down while thinking?

When he’s thinking, he usually tends to glance up as if trying to look to the sky for an answer. This is usually accompanied by a finger on his chin and a small tilt of his head.

⌆ a nervous tic or habit they do

When he sees a mess, he will work to clean it. He doesn't like when things are out of order, so he will move to tidy them. This could be straightening papers, wiping dirty boards after class, fixing posters that are tacked up the wrong way -- that kind thing. Clutter really drives him crazy.

⏀ describe their usual smile

His smile is relaxed and informal as he tries his best to make himself seem friendly and approachable. It doesn't reach his eyes, but it radiates self-confidence.

✜ what’s their posture like in a normal situation?

Because he was taught and raised in such a strict households, these types of things drip into things that Kou hasn't realized. His back is almost always straight when he stands because that is something that he was taught. He tries to fit in and become approachable by trying to mix in informal, casual things like crossing his arms over his chest and have his fingertips touch his arms.

✭ what is one of their favorite items?

He may not look it, but Kou really likes colognes. He doesn't use much of it because he just tends to sweat it off and he hates the scents, so no one besides people that come inside his home would know. It's funny because he doesn't really care for colognes, but he actually likes the bottles that they come inside.

Avatar

⌆ a nervous tic or habit they do

Despite being taught to hide any hint of displeasure or anxiety in front of another person by his family, he has the habit of scratching or rubbing the back of his neck when he's at a loss of words, nervous or just plain uncomfortable with something. He doesn't realize this and thinks he's the best at hiding how he feels because he can pull off a smile and a laugh, even at the toughest of times.
