When the young priestess agreed with his words – drunk or not, he found himself cringing a little. Why did he have to say it? Why had he sought her out to say it? Honestly, he couldn’t put two and two together.
He was an idiot. That was true.
He was emotional and irrational. He didn’t make his best choices based off of logic or anything – he did what he wanted to, and that’s what made him unreliable as the BRAVE of WIND. And, regardless of how hard he tried, he seemed like he couldn’t get any… better. He’d reached the peek of his skill and yet, his rivals all continued to grow. And with it, grew his own self-loathing. He enjoyed fighting. And to an extent, he was alright with losing. However, it seemed, more and more recently… all he ever did was lose. Again. And Again. And AGAIN. . .
“… boring as fuck.” That was the only answer he had to Isanami’s comment: “What is life without some grief.”
Kamanosuke enjoyed to lose to an extent. Pain was more then acceptable. The B r a v e of W i n d was an oddball like that. “But that doesn’t mean ya don’t regret it. Most people fuckin’ do. Why the hell… am I even here anymore?”
Drunk Kamanosuke wasn’t very fun – in fact? He couldn’t help but obsess a little. Why was he here anymore? Was it still to beat Saizou? Because that wasn’t a dream in his reach anymore. Saizou kept getting stronger and stronger. The best outcome he could wish for at this point was Saizou killing him. But, at this point, the BRAVE of LIGHT and him barely had time to spar anymore… and Saizou kept shining brighter and brighter, while his wind remained the same. “I can’t… do what I wanted to do. I can’t even figure this shit out. I’m still mad. I can’t get revenge on him, and all I can do nowadays is pick on you… and… shit, even you’re getting stronger. What about me, though? I can’t… do shit. I haven’t done shit.”
Surprisingly, tears were beginning to show up in the former Bandit’s eyes now.
At this point – he recognized that he was weighing the team down a bit. Everyone was improving except him, and? As soon as a situation arose, it would only take moments for even their LORD to realize he wasn’t worth his weight in a fight anymore. Perhaps it was time for him to take his show on the road again. . . “If you someday surpass me, what the hell am I supposed to do about that? I-I –“ he hiccups then, pulling his legs to his chest once she’d jabbed at his forehead. An action that he barely acknowledged. His self-loathing was strong together. “Fuck, I should just go. I’m not… changing anymore. I’m not growing anymore. Why am I here still?”
G’luck Isanami. He’s in a bit of a spiral of self-loathing. Drunk Kamanosuke has one of two moods – ether everyone is his friend and he wants more alcohol. Or? He hates himself and everything else. Today is the later.
❛ KAMANOSUKE!!!! Have you ever sneezed so hard that you knocked down a tree or something? ❜
The moment she started yelling he knew this conversation wasn’tgoing to go well – he could feel himself cringing visibly at the others obnoxiousyell. Not to mention, when it finally “CLICKED” to the Brave of Wind what she’djust asked???
Annoyance shows visibly in his features.
Really? Really?? RE A L L Y? ? ?
These were the sorts of things he was going to waste histime with now? ( And let me premise this with: And they have been getting along– well, okay??? Lately? ) “Seriously, bitch? You hunt me down, screamat me, and asked me something that goddamned stupid?” Welp, their goodstreak can’t last forever – if they don’t have moments like this every once anda while? The rest of the BRAVES would wonder who these imposters are.
“Have you ever sneezedso hard you put out the goddamned sun? Have you? Because whatever your fuckinganswer is? Then you know the fucking answer! Now get out of here before I kickyour ass!” Kamanosuke has become a bit better in the teamwork department.And? To be fair, the two of them have gotten along surprisingly well for the last while – it was about time one of themblew up.

The Brave of Wind, Kamanosuke has joined the rest of the Brave 10 on request of Yukimura… but? Mostly due to the fact that he’s seeking revenge and a rematch against his self-proclaimed rival, Saizou. (You know, his new leader.) Because of this? He can often be seen looking for the other, and causing trouble around Ueda Castle. A former bandit, now learning to be a member of a team… run by his rival? Yeah, this is going to end well.
Kamanosuke is becoming restless. Peaceful times are alright, he’s calmed down some, but? Whenever the chance to fight presents itself, he becomes uncontrollable. Unmanageable. But? Despite his eagerness to fight? Despite the fact that he loves battle, it appears he’s fallen a little behind his fellow Brave’s. Be it skill, or mentality? It’s hard to know.
This verse encompasses the time after Kamanosuke left the group, after his particular encounter with Saizou and up until his return during the battle with Izanami. During this time, Kamanosuke is hopeless for a time, depressed even- But? Finds unlikely help in the form of Saizou’s old teacher. With some help? The Brave of Wind has gotten much stronger, and is now returning to the others. Enthusiastic, again, about continuing his battle with the other- And actually holding a candle to him, once again. “Wait until you see me now!”
A wandering bandit, Yuri has very few friends. Instead? He has a fairly decent sized group of bandits that he keeps himself around. People that he knows won’t judge him for looking or acting weirdly, because? He’s strong enough to back himself up, and carry the rest of them with him. It’s how he’d become their leader, and? It’s how he’s found the only safe place for him, at this moment. He’s restless, relentless, and cruel. Because? He has no reason not to be.
A young princess in a foreign kingdom, Yuri doesn’t have a great many friends… In fact? For the most part, she appears to be avoided, due to her strange hair color, and her facial tattoo. Regardless of that fact, she doesn’t seem particularly heart-broken by her isolation. Instead, using the time to better herself, and hang around the few people who do matter to her. (Yes, this is based off the “dream” that Kamanosuke ended up having in “Brave 10.”)
This little piece of shit? Is very rarely seen around the school grounds. A delinquent freshman, he really just… sort of does whatever he wants to. Non-surprisingly, he’s found himself in a few less than favorable scuffles with people, because of it. But? He can really find himself particularly caring. He can take a few bumps and bruises. In fact? He always appears to be ready for a fight. Even one that he’ll likely lose.
