Kyra Suzuki. I prefer you use a male human oc since this is a romance/enemies to lovers. Her forms and rules are in comments.

Rules!
If it escalates to a ERP scene or you think it is, send me a memechat link. You're both 16-23 (you can pick between these)
No joke ocs, only human ones. I would prefer male ocs to be used, too.

Also this takes place in 1135-1600 CE japan, the medieval age so no electronics or slang.

Yousef: *he saw her, sighed, and walked over* what happened to you then?

(Trying to type with a cat on my arm)
*the child gets shy and backs away*

(awww)
I won't hurt you...

*it glances at its mother for permission before gently putting a tiny hand on his arm*

*he smiled* who are you?

*the child murmurs* A-Akane...

That's cool! I'm Yousef, I come from somewhere else, but I won't hurt you

*Akane giggles slightly* you're tall.

Yeah?
They told me that where I came from too (he's like 6dft)

*akane runs back to her mother, happy*

*he followed kyra into the town,,

Kyra Suzuki.

(no way I've got an oc called kyra)
Yousef...

(sick)
Nice to meet you.

Likewise... What brings you so far from home?

Well, I'm not. the area is my territory.

Oh? Well I hope they don't send out a search party... Makes me look bad

*nods*

What happened with this bear then?

he was on my territory. tried to shoot him away in my dragon form but he attacked me.

I suspect most would probably attack id they got shot at...

*stretches*

Sleep well?

*nods* mhm.

As did I *he stood*

(also sry for the 14 hour delay my parents made me take a break from my computer)
*stands up to* at least the weather calmed down.

(all good dw)
Yeah... Very helpful
Shall we head off?

*nods* yeah.
(Also in Tennesee it feels like 14 degrees bro-)

(well in England it feels like 5⁰c)
*He left the cabin with her*

BLOODY HELL -ron)
*looks around*

(lmao yeah I'm English. Idk what 14 F is but it must be cold, coz 32 is 0c)
*The woods were quiet and still*

Yousef: *sighed, and got on one knee* I won't hurt you yet

Yousef: *he came closer forwards* are you quite alright?

Yousef: stand up then *he stood*

Yousef: who the hell are you

*nods*

Can't stand people who do that...

i know.

Won't your family be worried?

no. Ever since we were raised by hunters we live seperately

So nobody's looking for you?

no.

Oh...
I'm so sorry...

No, its fine.

So you're just on your own most of the time huh?

*When hes in the house he'll be staying in..*

Ooh this is pretty homey...

*knocks,opening the door to peek in* just wanted to make sure you're comfortable.

Yeah it's pretty good! Come in!

*walks in, closing the door behind her*

*he was sat on the couch* nice to have a place here...

*sits beside him* you think so?

It's very kind that's the very least

if you want to stay permanently you can.

A-are you sure?

All the time.

Damn... Ever get lonely?

A lot.

Well... You're welcome to stick around..

Really?

Absolutely!

alright.

*he smiled* partnership of sorts

*smiles*

Where do you live then?

(Im sry i thought this was a different rp just added on can we restart? So sry)

(yeah all good)
Yousef: *saw her, sighed, looked at her* what happened to you then

(Here I'll recomment on your og message)

(ight)

(mhm)
*rests her head on an old tatami mat*

tired?

Not really. just don't want to poke a hole in the roof with my horns.

Understandable ..

*her tail flicks slightly*

*sat down on the floor*

*wraps her tail around him gently*

*he smiled" thanks...

*smiles* you're welcome. *her scales are warm*

You're right... It is toasty...

*shifts into half yokai form*
(-10 C is 14 F)

(Jesus that's bloody freezing)
Just seems too quiet doesn't it

Yeah.

*they start to walk through the forest,

*hears a twig snap and instinctively hides*

*he stopped in his tracks* I think it was a fox...

If it was a fox, it would've been a softer snap where they don't weigh much. especially since now they have kits.

Hm... *He paced backwards slightly* I don't know what that's was...

*still hiding behind the tree*

Do you see anything?

*follows*

*constantly looking about*

where are we going?

Out of these woods for a start

the only opening is where the village is.

It can't all be wood for the rest can it?

wood, water, mountains, mostly.

Where's the next nearest settlement?

Well, the Dragon yokai one.

How far is it?

*sees him, tenses for a moment before explaining* m-mauled by a bear yokai. I-im fine. *that was a lie, shes bleeding badly*

Yousef: you really don't look it....
If you want help, you do have to ask for it

Why would you help me? Youre supposed to kill my kind.

Yousef: *he thought for a second, sighed again, then spoke* I'll be honest with you, I don't really want to be here. This wasn't my choice. I value my morals over my orders

Really?

Yousef: *he nodded, placing his weapon down* what choice do you have?

Dont really have much of a choice. I was born this way.

Yousef: *he gestures with his head* come with me. I'll help get you fixed up. Or you can stay out here in the cold. Your choice *he held our a hand*

*gently takes his hand*

*he pulled her up with quite some force. In one movement he had scooped her up, and started to walk off, with her in his arms*

I hope so...

(LMAOO they gotta repopulate 👀💀)
*He was sat right by her*

(Oh fu-)
*spacing out*

(lmaooo DW probably won't do that here)
*He put an arm around her* you oka

Im fine.
(Oh, okay- wait you're still implying we will lol)

(idm tbh)
Promise?

Promise.
(Idc but as long as its in memechat)

(obvs)
okay then... if you say so..
i feel like i wanna help out the community

If you want, you can.

Id love to

*okay?

*lands on the outskirts of a old village*

Woah... This looks cool

Stay on my back until i calm them down. *walks into the village* theyre not... Welcome to insiders

Understandable... *He held on tight*

*sure enough, a warrior dragon sees him and alerts the others*

*he kept quiet for now,

*After a while, she calms the yokais and he can get off*

*he slowly got off, looking around at everyone*

*a tiny yokai child approaches him curiously*

*he crouched down to say hello*

Couple miles. But I could fly us there.

I feel it may be safer

*transforms into dragon form, crouching so he can climb on*

*he climbed on*

*takes off into the air, flying toward the village* you just have to promise not to kill them.

Did I kill you?

No.

Then I'll treat them like you

Alright. *continues to fly*

*watching the ground belowz

A little

*he scooched closer* must be cold up in your cave

Yeah.

I'm not a huge fan of being cold, but I don't know how the heating works in this cabin... Seeing as it isn't mine and all

Yeah. *chuckles*

I'll go see if I can find some blankets or something

Alright.

*he went onto the other room*

*follows curiously*

*he was searching for blanket*
O-oh hi-

They were in the main room.

*he couldn't find anything* damn... Nothing at all?

*shrugs* its fine.

Guess we're staying cold until we find firewood or something

Here. *shifts into dragon form* my scales are heated.

*he looked a bit surprised* woah... That's pretty cool

(Took me forever to draw)
Thanks.

(YOU DREW THAT?!)
*He stood quite close*

(yep. on IBIS Paint X)
*lays down, folding her wings on her back to give him room to be close*

(no way)
*he tried not to be awkward, essentially stood next to her*

(I got to get off whenever my dad gets home so whenever i dont reply he's home)
I mean, we're not really struggling except for with the population...

(ah Oki doke)
Wouldn't that mean like some jobs aren't being done?

No, no. Its the population thats the problem. We're getting wiped out faster than we can reproduce.

oh my god...

Yeah.

Wow... What other problems does that do?

Thats really the only problem we're having... And i dont really know if you can help with that.

Hm... (Is this time to go to DMS or sm I missing SM?)

(Prob. I already followed you)

(alright)

Yeah, you do. I just dont want to take the risk after what happened to my father...

What happened?

He hid amongst humans, lived in the plains beside the forests and close to the village. He got stressed and shifted to dragon form, and a rabbit hunter spotted him and reported him.

Oh... I'm so very sorry...

You dont need to apologize, its not your fault. *pulls her knees under her chin*

is there anything i can do?

No, not really..

Hm... * He moved the chair to be sat by her,

*Looks over at him*

*he gave her a small smile* you cold?

*didn't realize where she can't feel pain*

I'll have a look for some dressings for that. You just stay there... *He went into an adjoined room*

alright.

*he came back after a while, with some cloth*
No first aid kit. This will have to do to cover your wounds*

*Nods*

*he wrapped the cloth round her leg, careful to not cause pain*

(she cant feel pain)
*watches*

*tied up the dressing* better? Well, at least it won't get infected
(Presumably he doesn't actually know that yet)

*nods*

So... *He stepped back and pulled up a chair* who are you

*rests her head near his leg, getting slightly sleepy*

*he smiled* looking tired himself

*falls asleep*

*they slept through the night*

*that morning...*

*he got up first, and realised he slept leaning on her*

*still in dragon form, snoring loudly which sounds like a growl*

*he tapped her side gently*

*awakens, shifting to human form* hm?

H-hey

Yes. Half of the houses in the village are empty, anyway.

Have you lost a lot of people or something?

Yeah, we have...

Oh I'm so sorry...

Its fine. *sighs*
(Also you can be the one to start the romance part of the rp whenever you want idc)

(Oki doke. I'll do my best)
*He moved closer to her* you don't sound it

(Lol its ok. Im not good with starting romance either)
Its just... We've bern cut in half since last year. Theres only about 30 of us left.

(lmao me in RL)
What's been going on? You're being hunted?

Yeah. For our horns- which have healing properties-, scales which make good armor, and for fun.

Wow...
I'm so sorry...
I really hope you guys don't go extinct or anything

*there are at least 30 yokais*

*he tries to look at everyone and seem friendly*

*she shifts and leads him through the crowd*

*he followed behind her*

*they stop at the last house in the street* this is where the chief lives. you need to talk with him.

O-oh I see

*walks in with him*
(we can skip all the dialogue if you want)

(sure idm. Just need a summary)

(sent that too soon. anyway, he walked in and the chief questioned why he was here and his name, all that. basically after you explain how you dont want to be a shinobi, you're welcome to stay in the village as long as you want or when you need to)

(fantastic)

yeah.

So... You're a yokai?

*nods*

And I'm supposed to be going after you?

yes.

Guess I didn't pay attention to my dad then..
What a shrprise

*nods*

so what does that make me?

A Yokai hunter.

i suppose so...

*looks up at him as he carries her*

*he was focussed on the journey ahead. After a while of trekking, they find a small cabin*

Who's is this?

Yousef: mine now *he took down the door, it was empty*

*follows him in*

*he bolted the door back in, closed and locked it, and had left her on a chair*

*sits patiently*

*he walked over to her, crouched to her eye level and locked eyes* what seems to be the problem?

nothing.

*he looked down at her mauled leg, then back at her* nothing?

yeah.

How well can you walk on your leg?

*stands to test it. shes a little wobbly, though*

Best you stay in then for now...

*sits back down*

*the weather starts to turn for the worse*
Damn... Doesn't look good out there

it's always like this.

Okay, but I think it's safer in here for now..

*nods*

*he gave her a slight smile* looks like you're stuck with me

nearby. the mountain is my territory, so I live in the cave system.

well thats no way to live is it now

Well, I'm a dragon, aren't I?

You have a more human form

good point there.
(have you seen the dragon form image yet? I forgor)

(nope)
So why not live like one?

Eh. more of a chance I'm found my hunters.

you raise a good point...
nobody said you had to live near them though

*dumb moment*

*he smiled* got you there

No.

Hm... Tread carefully

*its a wolf yokai*

Oh- *he dukes down behind down shrubbery,

*grumbles* they're not supposed to be moving north yet.

What do we do?

Wait for them to pass, there aren't many of them.

*he sighed* it's not safe to stay still in the forest...

*after a couple minutes, the wolves pass*

*he got up and went off at a faster pace*
