ANARAEE
WHY IS EVERYTHING YOU DO SO FLIPPING GORGEOUS ):<
SHARE IT ??

Your form, the freaking relationship list, AND THEN
your role play format and even the text ;________;

// bangs head on table //

edit;
Oh, and I don't get off work until 5 so I wont be able to
post until then ;-; Will probably work on it a bit while i'm
working though..

[aurie]

i'm working on a post now! it'll be up later today
i'll tag kodama and anyone else if they want to be tagged.

@shiki omg haha i'm sorry
i mean.. i looked at.... the pictures... does that count? cx i'll reread it now
i just read your post and was confused but i had forgotten eriko's job was pretty much around-the-clock.
hehe my apologies

@koda that's so amazing!
teach me how to art pLS

[white deer]

thanks so much guys!!
i'm glad y'all like it. i did it in about 45 minutes last night.
i dunno, i just had sudden inspiration.

as for art advice, it's truly fairly simple. easy 3 step process. you just,


but i'll try to draw some more characters again later.
it would honestly be great if kookie had his phone with him, tbh.


@ari
omg that's also why mine are usually in black and white!
i had a lot of trouble trying to get kai's form re-do done,
but i see pinks a bit better than other colors. black and white
is absolutely my go-to though... but i'm worried people find it boring.
but i just really can't see colors well :c

also, yeah, there's hearts in their eyes!
i always add that in my drawings, but
i don't think people notice very much...

[pika beanie]

@ anra- or he'd make a ring of cupcakes and plant a huge seed
on each one sorta like a crown, lol i'm already planning out
ways he could treat her like a princess.
omg so very ready yes.

@ koda- you're so remarkably talented omg <3
eriko and koki look so sassy but then there's the innocent cutie
kai and the hearts in their eyes are so perfect and i LOVE IT.

and @ shiki- it would be really interesting if kookie could bring
his phone. maybe the spirits can lay a set limit on his use time
so it would be fair for both of them?
he would totally take pics of his finished cuisine products and
force katashi to take a picture him holding one then he'll post
them on instagram and comment on his own photo like
"there's no business like cooking business."
oh and thanks for the good luck wishes love.

_______

so here are the last three relation ideas i wasn't able to get
around to making ^^

@ daisuke- i feel like koki would actually appreciate him in a
way because kaze is detached and he's the same way in his
first impressions so he'll like the fact that he won't be
bothered by him. of course it'd be a different story if he
actually made any kind of contact with him but other than
that there won't be too much trouble here.

@ nezumi- he and koki would have the same concept as kaze
but he probably wouldn't be as bitter with him as he is with
the other spirits(besides kodama) since he's a mouse spirit
and won't be able to provoke him easily.

@ ari- you know that cat you described in chie's form? yeah
he'd be that cat. nuff said.

[avanhellica]

@tono ;; aaah sounds good to me <3
I think Kaze will just watch people from
the background and be like "what is
friendship...I don't...feel...or
understand..." but he wont' be
showing any expression o.o just
watching and thinking sad thoughts
that he doesn't understand are
sad; all to himself XD

@koda. kai is so sweet and
fussy, I'm not sure how kaze
would feel about him. Probably
nothing but I've been struggling
hardcore to think of how the two
could communicate or would
react to one another ;-; kaze
would probably bore him XD

[Ayashi]

Posted! Hope it's alright.

@ koda. - I am loving that art! Great job! Very vibrate colors and I just love everyone's expression at the snap shot. ;3

@tono - You know what would make a great picture? Oki waving a black and white DS, carelessly handling while it while yelling out "Heeey Fire Hazard, look at this weird rice ball I found! It's got a real funny taste to it!" and in the background would be Koki freaking out at how he's handling. And later blow up at Oki because there are bite marks from were he try to eat it. Poor Oki would be like "Why are you yelling at me? I thought it was one of those weird human food, like pocky. I mean, who in their right minds eat brown sticks?"

Oki :-/
Koki -.-

Hehehe, Oki is clueless about the human world that is not about war, weapons, and battle.

a short history

The first human out of
the bundle to be taken
by the which. He's lived
his life in this house
of horrors for a roughly
a month now. And it's
certainly been a rough
time in this anti-human
bath house.

He's done nearly
the whole lot of jobs
and has failed each one
thanks to his reckless
behaviour. But since he
knows his way around
and is...somewhat more
approachable than
spirits he's been seen as
a leader type figure.

Not exactly a team
player he's been assigned
to kitchen duty. Here he
partakes in the cooking
duties alongside his arch
nemesis, Koki. Not a full
time chef either, he's
often forced to be one
of the server boys.

some fun facts

Katashi has a secret love
for the ocean and hr
actually grew up in a
nearby fishing village.

He actually enjoys
helping others, even
though it seems like he
doesn't at all.

Tashi's got a bit of and
anger problem..

He refuses to eat
anything besides seafood
and some vegetables.
It reminds him of home.

Hasn't told a single soul,
but, he loves wearing
the pink cleaning
uniforms when he has to
help in the morning.
Claims it looks good on
him...

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Meet the one and only katashi, snide comments and uncivil gestures are are
his specialty. Find some bugs in your soup just after ticking him off? Well...
that's just his way of showing some good old fashion love. You should
definitely expect some more to come by fast shipping.

Don't catch yourself by surprise if you see this fellow literally tripping over
absolutely nothing. It's just his style. Have a precious vase that recently went
missing after you had katashi move it? Lets just say its paying a permanent
visit to the kitchen's trashcan.

Oh but we can't stop there! He's a complete disaster that one, but that
certainly won't diminish his spirit and determination. Always striving to get
better...though he never actually gets better. He has to have a couple of lucky
days to just make it by in one piece.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

close friend Unsure who would take on this role ? I would love for him to
have a friend that knows him behind the scenes of his rudeness.

school boy crush Moriko She doesn't like him, eventually likes his
food, but he finds her clumsiness relatable. Overall Katashi sees
her as adorable but refuses to admit this to himself.

likes Koki Although they've had their share of competitions, they'll
come together under a mutual understanding and passion for cooking.

Akane Maybe she doesn't really consider him as a friend, but he sees her as
one, or perhaps an ally. There's something to her, he's intimidated but
somehow fascinated and pulled in at the same time..

Okinami This dragon spirit really knows how to get under someone's skin and
Katashi definitely likes it. Aside from the terrible nickname of course...
and always trying to command him to do stuff.. hm, maybe he wants to
rethink this relationship a bit.

Chie Her active spirit puts Katashi in a better mood, he finds her immature
self entertaining and that's not very common with him. Her
optimism could rub off onto him.

neutrals Eriko He constantly sees her and a few others sneaking
off to the rooftops, it's none of his business and he refuses to intrude.

Kodama This bird is quite capable of confusing Katashi. Once quite bitter and
now always trying to smuggle food off the human cooks. He's unsure
what to think of this spirit.

Nezumi What? There's a mouse spirit here? I've never even seen him before..
He steals food right? Shouldn't I see him in the kitchen then?

Akira She can be a bit annoying sometimes in his general opinion but he still
doesn't mind her relaxed personality every now and then. She's
kind of interesting to him. - shrugs -

dislikes Kaze Why doesn't he shows he cares about anything?
This aloof behaviour just seems completely childish to him, if he
actually showed some emotion perhaps Tash would come around.

Kai There's something about this guy that just doesn't fit right
with Katashi. He seems unnaturally nice and his boyish self can just
makes his eye twitch.

[aurie]

i posted. cx
sorry if it's a bit rough, it's literally been ages since i've been in a roleplay that got past the planning stage. yikes.
i also realized i'm still missing relations with a few characters, so i'll suggest some tomorrow probs, before the
roleplay gets too far.

psst we should also plan some drama for when the bathhouse opens
bc who doesn't love drama ??

[anraee]

reading mori's post just imagining like

"KOOOOOOOOOOODAAAAAAAAMAAAAAAAA."

also yes I am all for drama because
I'll have you know I'm definitely a korean drama addict.
is it bad that I have no regrets about that?
maybe something stupid like the bath herbs get mixed up with
the cooking herbs and chaos ensues because "NOT THE HERBS."
or something better, that's just a silly little idea.

kreacher. thank you. xD
I wouldn't think that highly of my coding but
I always like to make simplistic but nice looking coding.
pays off apparently

tono. awe kodama's probably going to eventually be pretty
secretly happy about being treated like a princess
all like "okay maybe humans aren't that bad."
EVEN IF SHE'S A SPIRIT THAT MAY BE HUNDREDS OF YEARS OLD
she'll probably still act like some embarrassed school girl pft

[shiki,]

gOODBYE I HAVE FALLEN OVER WITH LAUGHTER AND
SHALL NEVER GET UP
maybe one day i'll understand this thread but today is
not that day so im gonna watch yui flail around for the
5090348th time instead


also everybody's posts are super great! and don't worry
abt not being able to post if you're busy uvu

@AURIE no omg it's totally fine i probs would've done
the same thing tbh
and i feel u man i feel u so many roleplays barely get
anywhere pLS LET THIS ONE LIVE

@TONO hm hmmM ok so i'll definitely not completely
against this idea but like i feel like changing it so that he
has his phone kinda changes up his whole character?? like
he's meant to be all mopey and sulky b/c he doesn't have
all of his technology from before, and i imagine he'd be a lot
more cheerful if he had his phone with him the whole time.
but like it would srsly be so funny and interesting if he did
have his phone so hMMMmm maybe later on he manages to
find it? since he's so attached to it he probs had it with him
when he came to the bathhouse and they took it away and
poked it with a stick and were like "lol wt f is this" before
throwing it in a box somewhere, and at some point in the
roleplay (it doesn't have to be v far away) koki manages to
find it and is all HALLELUJAH
np bby how'd it go


@Y'ALL SO DRAMA
uhh everyone can pitch in ideas? we could do smthg like the
movie with a weird/v dirty/problematic customer that freaks
the whole bathhouse out and like somehow everyone would
play a part in helping out????
or like anra said a mix up with herbs or ingredients
??? ?
