rootless | [[PSA]] Skill + Question Meme

Real Body Skill:
Tsuyukusa is a tree ayakashi. As such, his real body is literally a tree. This skill has enabled his real body to be placed in Aather.

So here's the basic info:
Location: His tree is placed behind Turquoise, where a back yard would be if there, you know, was one.
Health: He is somehow able to subsist from the shitty soil, be it because the area around his roots has been given actual nourishing soil or because Aather has shifted his makeup. Idk.
Appearance: He's young, and his tree is also very visibly young. It looks a good deal sturdier than it appears in the above picture, and is easily climbable. I would have used another image, except those that demonstrate its sturdiness also show it... well, spoilers.
Species: I headcanon that Tsuyu is a camphor tree. This means that in the spring he will flower, and when those flowers are fertilized/wither, he will bear fruit. Fun times/hilarity/etc.

ON DAMAGING HIM: Tsuyukusa can feel everything that happens to his tree. Vividly. Snap a branch off and it will feel like losing an arm, and will continue to hurt until it heals, which is a fucking slow process for trees. Because of this, Turquoise is currently questing for a way to keep him from being hurt, but until then he's pretty vulnerable.

If anyone wants to touch/hurt/climb his true body without IC permission now would be the time, before it's rendered un-damageable by team-dere/Personae. Alternatively, at a later date, one could contact me and possibly find a way to work around whatever is put up for tree!defense. I can be found on IRC as Tara, plurk as treefucker, and email at visone.tempesta@gmail. Feel free to contact me by commenting to this post, as well, if you have any questions.

Aaaand because I have no self control and FEEL LIKE TL;DRing... QUESTION MEME FOR TSUYUKUSA!

Tempest for 1-5
The Rest Of Turquoise for 6

Because screw the rules.

RIGHT BACK AT YOU FOR CORAL

...butting in to ask how do you propose to watch yourself perform all of these things on yourself?

do it in front of my real body

I propose that's cheating.

denied. i do what i want.

go ask me an actual question you weirdo

I WANT TO KNOW A SERIOUS ANSWER TO THAT ONE.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO TRAUMATIZE MY MUSE THAT MUCH TONIGHT. REALLY.

your own question '^'

I'm horrible enough to say "yes", but I'm also horrible enough to have already thought of answers and reasonings behind it, so.

OKAY FINE, how would Tree feel if Sion's ideas of planting more trees from his fruits worked and there were suddenly lots of cute birddeers running around Aather?

....god. he would want to cry. because in canon, tree spirits do not raise their offspring. instead they reproduce when they're going to die....

nonetheless he would also be the best goddamned parent.

because his is one of the few cases where inability to take care of self ≠ inability to take care of others.

cares for all the babby birddeers afraids of goddamned everything MOST OVERPROTECTIVE PAPA etc. baby birddeers learn to avoid Acedia by scent and sound alone. They are also probably a lot less tsun than papatree.

papatree just kind of sucks at being a tree spirit, ngl. but that is probably why he is good at other things.

how hard would katou laugh at him

PRETTY HARD MAN, PRETTY HARD. At first, at least. And then he'd realize Tree was a good dad, and then Katou would get weird and awkward about it and never bring it up again unless it made Tree tsun in hilarious ways.

What memories do you want Tree to get back most?

.....the priestesses beating him nearly to death. Montage Of Killing People. Any memory wherein Heihachi tops the fuck out of him sheerly by being adorable. Benitobi kicking his ass.

What skill do you look forward most to Katou getting?

See icon. Also, another picture of it.

Back at you!

-Advanced senses.

-Fighting/general physical awesome.

-Healing abilities.

-Flight.

in other words: all of them

whoops.

How would Katou react if one day Tree suddenly stopped tsunning?

He'd demand to know where the real Tree was, because obviously this one's a pod person.

How would Tree react if he found out about the whole deal with Acedia and the violencesexdrugs thing they've got?

.....In his current emotional state, or as a general rule?

Let's go with as a general rule.

............punch katou right in his stupid fucking face for being an idiot. and then sit on him and make sure he never is with acedia alone again.

in his current emotional state he'd either just. shut down nope fuck everything. or find a way to kill acedia.

It is spring. Tree is in Tree!Heat. What do?

(no seriously why am i awake if i can't even care that i'm asking this)

WHAT KATOU SAYS!1! GOTTA ANSWER MY TERRIBLE THINGS SRSLY. Blue screen of death, go tree go.

Rolo killed
Yayoi gets her leg broken
Echo gets the face!scar
Katou gets to do all of the above because he can take it
Paul has to watch because he at least won't BREAK

Tsunami is nowhere near any of this. Ever.

You're welcome.

NOW DO THAT FOR CORAL

GOSH this is a little harder now that Hound is gone.

One has to be killed brutally (but are revived) - Rabbit? I think this is one where he'd have to be coerced into choosing and I think Rabbit would win. If it was of his own choice and no outside influences, perhaps Raccoon because he seems the most used to death, exploding, dying, etc. '-'
One has to have a leg broken - Kit. Maybe it'll keep him from doing stupid stuff...
One has to get a facial scar - Big bro.
One has to perform all of the above acts - Raccoon (and/or Rabbit).
One had to watch - Ferret.
One can be elsewhere when it all happens - Fawn. She hasn't had horrendously bad trauma yet, and this is a bit too much for first trauma game.

SO WHY CHESHIRE ON IOLITE?

Because i think that's the team Vincent's on but was too lazy to check. And because I'm a terrible person.
