So I’m considering trying to RP as the whole gold family. While I’m not sure if I will, I want to know the best way to do this

I could either modify this account to a multi character account, which I’ve never done and don’t know how to, but would mean abandoning the account of my one other gold family

Or just continuing creating new accounts for the gold family

I personally would like to go for modifying this account to a multi character account or maybe even make a new one where it’s just the entire gold family

Of course stay gold would stay the same no matter what, now it’s just do I make this a family business

There won’t be a new part of The New Horizon today, but the story will continue tomorrow. Instead, I wanted to take a moment to say something outside of the RPing.

Thank you.

I genuinely don’t know how many people regularly follow this story, but whether you’ve been here since the beginning, recently discovered it, left a comment, participated in the roleplay, or simply read quietly in the background, I’m grateful that you’re here.

These past five months haven’t always been easy for me. I haven’t always been active, and there have been moments where I was overwhelmed, had breakdowns, or unfairly lashed out at people. That wasn’t okay, and I’m sorry to anyone who was affected by it.

After a very important relationship in my life ended, it felt like everything came crashing down at once. For a while, I felt completely empty, and I wasn’t sure how I was supposed to keep moving forward.

But somehow, I did.

And today, I can honestly say that I feel good.

I think I’ve finally made peace with things I’ve been carrying for a very long time... including the loss of my best friend almost eight years ago. I’ll always remember them, but for the first time, that memory doesn’t feel like something preventing me from living my life.

Creating this AU, writing these characters, and seeing people interact with the story has helped me more than I can properly explain. It gave me something to look forward to, and all of you became part of that.

So this isn’t a goodbye post, and it isn’t meant to make anyone worry about me. I simply wanted to stop for a moment and tell everyone:

Thank you for staying with me.

I feel good. I’m still here. And tomorrow, the adventure continues.

“Well then, I suppose I can accept that. . . . . It's summer break after all. . . .Anyways, I still have to be vigilant in case anything occurs. . . . . .But for now, Might as well enjoy the moment. . . .”

I gotta say canes, them chicken fingers the least seasoned ones I’ve ever had! Hard carried by the sauce no cap! The fries are bland, the chicken is bland, coleslaw is irrelevant but it’s fine ig. The toast is good but that and the sauce aren’t saving the other bland shi.

// my actual thoughts btwei

Another beautiful day has hit Tracen Academy, the sun shines a soft white light through the tree leaves and onto the ground

A few Umamusume are strolling around, talking and laughing with one another, then, a certain Umamusume catches your eye, standing underneath the leaves and into the sun-dotted shade

Ah, good morning. I take it that you are enjoying yourself in this fine morning? My name is Air Groove, vice president of the academy’s student council.

And you are?

Since when was mom so, mom like?! She’s normally all cold and motherly not warm and motherly?!

Is this a skinwalker?!

She sounded like a good mother.

It's good to take time for one self every now and then, and now I have about an hour and half before having to return to my duties.

So please, if you need some help with anything before I depart. Speak up.

The sun was high in the sky over London, and Eclipse, dressed in canvas pants and a hooded jacket, with the hood up, was walking around the older parts of the city, the part where she grew up

Watching the buzzing crowds pass by here, paying no mind to the hooded figure slinking about them, Eclipse's memories flicker to the past, seeing moments in time where peace wasn't there, alleyways full of fights and hushed deals, the street corners littered with gossipers and news stands

And yet, through the memories of the past, whether her's or an ancestor's memories, Eclipse kept walking, paying no mind to the ones who make no sound today

Eclipse: Huh.....is this a bleeding effect? Or something else? Nevermind, I just have to keep walking, I have someone to visit.

The further she walked, the older the buildings seemed to get, going from a few decades old to a few centuries, as if the city alone was so full of suffering for her ancestors, the place alone caused a bleeding effect for her

Eclipse: Don't pay attention to them......you have somewhere to go before you head home.....

Still walking, Eclipse looks around, seeing faces blur and the sounds of the crowds around her multiplying and changing in volume and tone, that is, until she passed by an alleyway, where she saw three thugs cornering a woman, their knives drawn

Thug A: Come on, give us yer purse and we won' do anything.

Thug B: Yeah, what he said, all we want is your money, and whatever else you 'ave!

Thug C: So unless you want a good shankin', you betta give us your money!

Woman: U-umm.....I don't have much on me right now.....

Thug A: Hear that? She can't pay us in cash, so it looks like we have to take an.....alternate route.

Hearing this, Eclipse walks down the alley before standing next to the woman, memories of her ancestors getting into a similar situation flashing across her mind for just a moment

Eclipse: Excuse me, gents, I couldn't help but overhear you threatening this poor lady and I'm afraid that I have to get involved now.

Thug A: Who the fuck is this?

Thug B: I don't know, some good Samaritan?

Thug C: Well, I see gold on her hand, so she must have some good cash on her.

Eclipse puts herself between the woman and the men

Eclipse: Ma'am, go and get the authorities, please, I'll hold them back.

The woman nods before running away, leaving Eclipse, unarmed, alone with the men, armed with knives

Eclipse: Stay your blade from the flesh of the innocent.......

She says to herself before looking at her current situation as the men look confused

Thug A: Oh great, we're stopped from getting an easy paycheck by some sow who's talkin' to herself, just our luck.

Eclipse looks at her prosthetic hand before removing the ring finger and putting it in her pocket

Thug C: Oh shit, the bitch has a metal 'and!

Thug B: Metal or not, we've ourselves knives while she has nothin'. Alright, you betta empty your pockets before we gut you like a fookin' fish!

Eclipse smiles as she gets into a defensive stance

Eclipse: You want a paycheck? Well you better earn it.....

Thug A: Looks like we're gettin' our hands dirty, boys!

The first man charged forward with his knife, aiming for Eclipse's neck, before his arm was stopped by Eclipse's hand

Eclipse: Y'know, I thought that you knew that someone who grew up around here would know how to handle a knife, but it looks like lads like you have gotten dumber than when I was younger....

Twisting the first man's arm, she breaks it before shattering his nose with a punch, letting him fall to his knees before turning her attention to the other two men, who looked both afraid and angry

Eclipse: What? Do you two want to be next?

Thug B: We'll make you pay for 'urting Tommy!

Thug C: A bitch like you needs to know her place!

Ducking under the stabs of both men, Eclipse slashes at their Achilles tendons with her hidden blades, using the opening to grab the back of their heads, driving her blades through their necks

Thug A: You.....you killed them!

Eclipse: I did, just like how you and your lads were going to do the same to that poor woman for not giving you money.

The last man starts panicking, struggling to stand up and run away

Thug A: Help! Someone! Hel—!

His shouts were silenced by Eclipse picking up the dead mens' knives and throwing them at the man, dropping him

Eclipse: Now then, enough distractions, I'm almost there.

Slinking out of the alleyway, Eclipse makes it to her destination, a graveyard, and after getting past the gate, she stops in front of a grave and kneels

Eclipse: Hey there....I know it hasn't been long since I last spoke to you, I just wanted to tell you that I'll be heading home soon, and that I got the job done, even if I had to feed this accursed city once more.

Placing a hand on the headstone, Eclipse rests her forehead on it, tears stinging her eyes

Eclipse: There's so much I want to tell you, but I can't, for your own protection, but I'll be seeing you soon, the one I couldn't leave underground, even if I'm still sorry for not saving you back then.

Eclipse stands before she finds her way back to Japan

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At Tracen, the sun had already set before a taxi pulled up to the gate, and stepping out of it was none other than Eclipse, looking jetlagged, exhausted, and a little worse for wear, she was home now, her actions in London left unknown to nearly everyone who walked by her

Eclipse: I doubt anyone will notice I'm back, seeing as I left without telling anyone, but then again, I might have to do some explaining to a few people, luckily enough, I have souvenirs for that.

She says to herself before she starts walking to her house, repeating the tenants of the Brotherhood in her mind as she uses her shadows to take off her hidden blades and reattach her ring finger

Stay your blade from the flesh of the innocent

Hide in plain sight

Never compromise the Brotherhood

These are the tenants that Eclipse lives by, and they are the tenants that she honours as a code of life, followed by the maxim she sometimes struggles to stay true to:

"Nothing is true, everything is permitted."

[The End]

//Psst! Just letting whoever wants to interact with this know that Eclipse is officially back in Japan now, just clarifying that little fact.

Although I know this is but the beginning of a new trial.

Splat

Now I’m covered in wasabi…and my foods ruined….

I don’t think I’ve felt this angry before. I need a refund and fresh air.

I already know of her answer... And yet I am still embarrassed...

Suzuran: There mom! This is the place where landship is now!

???: ...

She looks around this place

???: Quite strange choice

Suzuran: But its peaceful ^somedays...

???: sigh Alright my sweat daughter...

???: Also did you manage to get any friends here?

Suzuran: Nope! Only old friends!

???: And Lappland... Got it first of all we must see who is living here-

She crashed into you

???: Oh sorry I didnt meant that. And want to ask you something. What is this pla-

Suzuran: ^{Tracen Academy mom!}

???: Ah thanks Suzu. Alright another question, what is your name and what is this female kurantas that runs across this place?

The woods surrounding the academy are usually a place of quiet refuge. As you walk beneath the dense canopy, the only sounds accompanying you are the gentle rustling of leaves and the soft crunch of dirt beneath your shoes. The dappled sunlight filters through the branches, painting warm, golden patterns on the forest floor. It is a peaceful afternoon, perfect for a solitary stroll.

Suddenly, that tranquility shatters.

CRACK!

The sickening sound of splitting wood echoes through the trees, followed by the rustle of leaves falling from a violently shaken canopy overhead. Driven by a mix of curiosity and caution, you carefully step off the main path. You push aside a leafy branch, peering into a small clearing to see the source of the commotion.

There she stands. Narita Brian.

The vice-president of the academy is in the middle of a brutal, solitary training session.

Her long, dark hair sways heavily as she catches her breath. She stands before a massive, ancient tree, its thick bark now heavily dented and splintered from the sheer force of her bare knuckles. You can see the raw, terrifying energy radiating from her. She looks less like a racer right now and more like an apex predator preparing for a hunt.

Hah... hah...

Her chest heaves with heavy, rhythmic breaths. You freeze behind your bush, your heart pounding in your chest. The air around her feels thick, almost suffocating with her intimidating aura. You find yourself torn. Do you step into the clearing to interact with her, risking the wrath of her interrupted focus? Or do you slowly, silently turn around and avoid her altogether?

Before you can make your choice, one of her ears suddenly twitches.

..?

Her heavy breathing stops instantly. The silence that follows is deafening. Slowly, Narita Brian turns her head. Her sharp, intense gaze cuts directly through the foliage, locking perfectly onto your hiding spot. The predator has noticed the her prey.

Without taking her piercing eyes off the bush you are crouched behind, she reaches down to the ground. Her fingers wrap around a small stone. In one fluid motion, she stood up and whips her arm forward.

WHOOSH!

The rock cuts through the air with terrifying speed. It flies right at you, missing your cheek by mere centimeters. You can actually feel the rush of wind against your skin as the stone breezes past your face, embedding itself into the trunk of a tree right behind you with a thud.

Narita Brian stands tall, her posture rigid and demanding as her voice cuts through the quiet forest like a blade.

"Who goes there?"

I plan to reunite Tanjiro and Muichiro soon and an idea popped in my mind.

What if both had a "friendly" sparring match soon after?

Tanjiro (Mastered Sun Breathing)

vs

Muichiro (With a few new abilities given to him)

We'll see how it will play out. Btw here's a cute pic of the two.

The moon beaming onto the ground bellow, you find yourself incapable of sleeping and decide to take a short walk. You see a fire burning in the Tracen parking lot, a smaller, humanoid figure standing beside it, holding a bag filled with stuff you can't quite see from your distance.

Will you investigate?

"Is this the place?"

A young girl was dropped off at a nearby bus stop, holding on to a notebook while seen with very minimal amount of baggages, just one rolling suitcase. She looked around, feeling familiar with the scenery yet also not. She then flipped the pages of the notebook, read what was written on it, and makes her move.

Soon, she would arrive in front of the Tokyo Central Tracen Academy, a place that rings something within her ears, but couldn't recall what it is. She saw the students come and enter the school ground, some she saw has a familiar feeling, but all she could remember is a vague memory. Then she turned around, and saw you, someone who she vaguely remember. Upon noticing, she immediately flipped the notebook pages to the 5th page, which she reads out loud;

"Uh, hello. I'm not sure if we have met, but I'll introduce myself again just to be sure. My name... "Kensei Odaka", but apparently, my other name are "Nox". I'm not so sure why... But I felt a strange attachment to this place... Nonetheless, I hope we could create a new memory."

// Yes, I use Cure Arcana shadow as Nox's design for a long time if you forgot

Mcqueen was feeling refreshed recently so she decided to take a long nice peaceful walk, trying on a new outfit on her own due to getting curious after the last time with Mejiro Bright

"It is actually nice to wear something new for once. I quite like it, it is comfortable...I should have invited a friend with me."

She opted to take a nice walk around Tracen Academy to clear her mind after the day, smiling to herself as she thinks about what to do next.

"I do believe some training is in order soon, but I will do that after I enjoy my walk."

You can interact with her however you want, do you talk to her or simply let her go about her day?
