+1 historical figure

[tuberculosis]

and an obnoxious gif

Hello once again, Haven! Aly here (player of Hubert Oswell and Roxas), bring in a third character. He's Souji Okita from the otome game about dating vampire-demon versions of historical figures, Hakuouki! Which sounds pretty ridiculous, and I guess kind of is.

For those unfamiliar, Okita was a real person, so characters from Japan or that would be familiar with Japanese history (or tv shows/games/anime etc) are more than welcome to recognize him as such, since he was a prolific member of the Shinsengumi and it's a pretty popular media thing. Actually, I encourage it. Otherwise, a bit about him: He's usually smiling, kind of a sarcastic jerk a lot of the time, and it's kind of hard to tell where his intentions are... considering he does things like threaten to kill his love interest. He's kind of quick to threaten to kill anyone, but he'll only follow through when it's necessary. He's not a bad guy, but what he says and what he thinks are usually miles apart. Aside from that, he loves both children and cats, which is a pretty big contrast to being a bloodthirsty (literally and figuratively) Shinsengumi unit captain.

He'll be in #5.004 and not understanding how phones work. And I can (as always), be found on plurk at elympios for chatting/plotting/what have you!

[keystroke]

in conclusion, i am the

[notvessalius]

demon samurai YES I love Okita even though all I've done is watch the anime and not play the game like the failure I am...

[tuberculosis]

NO SHHH there is no failure here, only beautiful(/hideous) things!!

[notvessalius]

.////.!!! the most beautiful things

[tuberculosis]

and simultaneously hideous! as most things relating to okita must always be.

[3d2y]

yes neighbours but why 'tuberculosis' ..........

[tuberculosis]

because tuberculosis is what was killing him before he became a demon-vampire thing. and also kind of a big part of his historical... history...

[dragontemptress]

i'm still upset over that username

[tuberculosis]

me too and it's mine

it keeps me in check because it's hakuouki and it should always be upsetting

[dragontemptress]

i'm not prepared to play it

but i will tag the hell out of okita so we get to do stuff together

[tuberculosis]

i think even when you know, you can't be prepared for it, in all fairness

i end up sobbing whenever i replay any of the games

BUT YES LET'S DO THINGS, i think he and presa would have interesting cr for sure!!

[encored]

hi sooj i heard you like small rude not-human brats who wear capes

--THAT IS i am excited to see hakuoukis in game huhu

[tuberculosis]

he's pretty sure one is enough CAN WE NOT (no it needs to happen)

I'M GLAD THOUGH!! he's definitely been my long favorite character to play, so other people being excited for him pleases me greatly

[encored]

AND SO IT SHALL HAPPEN he can be the exception to okita's cats and kids favoritism

but yes a circle of appreciation for tragic vampire-demon losers A+, haven will be... a great place for him surely...!!

[tuberculosis]

yes, of course!! something about kindred spirits and learning about other vampire-demon types

surely nothing could go wrong here... because nothing ever goes wrong in haven. or when you're okita.

[encored]

it's bound to be a trainwreck but at least they can earn an A for effort or maybe like a C for vague attempts at effort.....

okita clearly needs one of those little good luck charm foxes izumo was handing out earlier tho

[tuberculosis]

he does, because he does have the shittiest luck ever

he even comes in not knowing yet what over-using his rasetsu abilities means, which will be fun. you're either dying of tuberculosis or turning yourself into dust GOOD JOB, GOOD EFFORT

quality existence right here

[encored]

LMFAO..... oh no truly he is carrying on the tradition of being a generally tragic existence. singletear.png, a great effort was made.

[haramaki]

oh no.... that username... aly..... (pretend zoro's sweat are his tears emote)

but that said, i am super excited to see okita and hope to play with him soon.

[tuberculosis]

i get progressively more terrible as time goes on but i don't think we can deny that it's fitting :(

okita needs to see this directionally challenged guy with three swords. it needs to happen!!
