ALT [ID: Kyojuro and Akaza side-by-side from the chest up. Akaza has leaned over into Kyojuro's space, butting his head against the side of Kyojuro's face. Kyojuro is smiling, the eye nudged by Akaza's head closed, his other looking at Akaza with equal affection. END ID.]
my kny oc ideas:
- corps tailor that beats the shit outta masao and takes his place. originally from the swordsmith's village. always masked. likes offering to hide unnecessary weapons in people's uniform design.
- gardener/botanist that takes care of the wisteria. built like a giant. mostly silent. wants to help shinobu more by growing things for the butterfly estate's medical supplies but gets too flustered to ask for details. ends up gifting her just giant bouquets of random things
- crowkeeper. actually the first kny oc i thought of but i got nothing for them except He Keeps The Crows. has a haori made out/decorated with crow feathers
why are all my kny ocs in support roles. tbh it's cute and fun world-building.
fumingly adds mitsuri redesign to my to-do list. my hero deserves the cutest uniform that makes her feel hot WITHOUT it being patronising on a meta level. and she needs to have Actual Muscle and have her guns out. obviously.
ppl who say mitsuri's uniform isn't misogynistic bc "she's continues to wear it of her own free will" are so dense. did you forget she's a character made by a mangaka. where am i. where's your basic common sense. there are ways to do a hot chara design that aren't patronising.
if you're gonna have a canonically big-breasted chara who has a physically-demanding job GIVE HER CHEST SUPPORT. OMG. how did you make a cutiepie chara who's hilariously super-strong and not have that as her main gag. instead of the Sexual Harassment Uniform. i'll kill you.
if tengen gets to have a sleeveless uniform for his massive guns, so shld mitsuri. what better way to show that the strength she was shamed for is now something she proudly uses to save people AND she knows it makes her super hot. c'mon. i'm dying here -_-
kyojuro having a really skewed opinion of how nice akaza actually is bc akaza is only Toothrottingly-Sweet to him and no-one else is a comedy gold mine i don't think we've fully tapped
kyo: yesterday he gave me flowers and said they reminded him of my eyes... i rlly think his humanity is coming back
tengen bleeding profusely from the shoulder that has a cartoon bite mark: okay well yesterday he gave me rabies.
akaza: hiii kyojuro i went around the festival and got you food from every stall ^_^ if you want, i can hand-feed it to you 😳 haha just kidding ^_^ ....unless? 😳
giyuu, also there: can i have some
akaza: there's free dirt on the ground.
