Noukie Yakuma

[Stoner Kitty]

Quote:
They tell me to act
my age when most meet
me for the first time. But can
I ask you what the fun is in that?
Life's a party and I intend to be the life
of the party. So loosen up and have some fun!"

Theme: Careless & Carefree - Inuyasha - OST 2

Name: Noukie Dai-Bolin Yakuma

Nickname(s)/Alias(es): Nou, Ukie, The Black Dog, Little Brother, Freak - He gets called freak by those who don't like the fact that he's bisexual. He's not shy about it. But he hasn't told his sisters yet..worried they they may not look up to him anymore. However for those thinking of calling him a freak, be forewarned.. He is very hot heated. When you call him a freak, he will lash out without batting an eyelash. And Black Dog he was given his first week in the army. The reason was simple.. His black hair and the fact that he was punched by one of the other recruits for being bisexual... The punch in all honesty should have knocked teeth out of Noukie's mouth, but instead Noukie bit the hand as it connected and refused to let go. It took Haru talking to him to calm him down enough that he'd release his bite, and Jianyu to pull him off the guy and hold him back from attacking the red head again. And the only one that can get away with calling him 'little brother' is Jianyu.

Gender: Male

Age: 30

Birthdate: August 8th, 1980

Birthplace: Bayankala mountain range - China

Race: Human

Nationality: Chinese

Languages Spoken: Chinese, Japanese, German, English

Current Residence: War - He's wherever the war takes him.

Eye Color: Soft Brown

Hair Color: Black

Height: 6ft

Weight: 160 - He may not look big, but the majority of his weight is muscle. Something that isn't seen unless he's caught in bed clothes rather than his yakuta or kimono.

Distinguishing Markings(Tattoos, Piercings, etc): He has very long jet black hair that is just below the lower back...nearly hip length. Due to his hair, from behind if he's standing just right, he looks like a female. Though if called a girl, he'll merely turn to face the person before laughing and correcting the person. This long hair he also refuses to cut. And when he's out in battle, it's either worn in a braid, or pulled back into a pony tail. Though when he's not in battle or in a fight, it's usually worn down. And he's actually light skinned in skin tone. He's not pale, but he's not tanned either.

Morality: Chaotic - He's a major sweetheart that wouldn't hurt a fly. The only real way to get him to snap so he will attack till the person is either in critical condition or almost dead is to talk bad about his family and friends.. or to make threats to them. He's protective of his family and friends. People that know him will tell you that he is also short fuses. It only takes a few wrong poor choice of words to reach his ears and he'll snap and start attacking. Easiest way to know you've really pissed him off, he'll grab for his sword. And if he don't have it with him, then he'll grab for anything made of glass.

Disability: His secret crush. Trying to make him reveal it, he just won't. And he'll actually change the subject or dodge the subject. Mostly because he worries that he won't make a suitable husband with being at war. Secondly, he has ADD. So even the slightest amount of sugar will send him bouncing off the walls. Another one of his bigger issues, ocean travel. He gets sea sick very easily. As such, when traveling by boat, one will often see him drinking water. And if he eats at all, it's only crackers. This way if he gets sick, it's not too rough on him while traveling. Drifting away from that, he has a soft spot for all of Haru's family. And a soft spot for his own family. He's protective of them all. And if anyone ever tried to hurt them, he'd probably go after the one responsible. He's got a soft spot for cute guys. Though he never acts on what he thinks of the guys. He also hates being dirty. He's also absolutely petrified of spiders. He HATES spiders with a passion and if one drops near him or gets close, he immediately backs away.

Allergies: Strawberries - They seal off his throat, making it impossible to eat, drink or breath. So if not taken care of ASAP, it could very well kill him.

Blood Type: A +

Sexuality: Bisexual - His father and his best friend/oath brother know. That's it. He hasn't told anyone else. Also, despite his shyness around Momo, that's not saying he's a virgin either. He's been with both genders. His first crush was a Japanese boy. Though it didn't work out. The boy only lived in the area a year before moving. So the only distance he got with him was a make out session. Then there was his first girlfriend. He was with her two years before she broke up with him..She claimed he was nuts because he got into a bunch of fruit and some other sweet things and ended up zooming off the walls.

Love Interest: Momo Hidoshi - Being at the age he is at, he has been paired with two women in his life ( not counting Momo ).. The first one, they got into a screaming match over his family. She wanted him to leave his family behind, wanted him to forget his oath brother and best friend... And his uncle. When he refused, she slapped him. He called her a bitch and told her to get out. He never saw her again. The second one, he adored. Was going to marry her...but her family had to move away..and in doing so, took her with them. After that, he refused to let his father pair him with anyone. It took him a month after that happened before he came to terms that he had fallen for Momo. But she was married.. So he couldn't do anything with her.. So he wouldn't even flirt with her. Then of course, once her marriage was basically broken off... He's still too shy to say anything.

Family: Two Brothers, Two Sisters, Mother & Father, Adoptive Uncle

Class(es)/Occupation(s): Lord Of Bayankala China, Soldier Of The Chinese Army

Abilities: He's a near master swordsmen. When it comes to sword play, he's fast on his feet and likes to strike hard and fast giving the enemy little time to think. He's also an excellent martial artist and trains every morning before meditation to calm himself after a workout. And then a bath.

Weapons: Duel Edged Sword, Several Throwing Knives (Knives are kept concealed in the long draping sleeves of his yakuta or his kimono...depending on what he's wearing. Hands, Feet, Teeth - He will bite. He will not hesitate. If he's mad at you and you go sticking your hand in front of his face, he's liable to bite. So you've been warned.

Biography:

August 8th, 1980 - The soft cries of a baby boy would welcomed into the bed chambers of The Yakuma homestead. Two months premature, and yet so full of life. Once handed to his father, he'd grab his father's spiral bangs and drool on them as he stared up at him. His father, Junjie, he'd smile down at the baby.. Tears glittering in his eyes as he'd gently hug the boy before giving the small bundle the name Noukie.

Growing up, Noukie ws the first born to the family. His parents did a lot of fighting. Mainly just yelling matches. Every now and then, he'd witness his father being slammed into marble shelves or through walls by Mei (Nou's mother) when things didn't go her way. So as a small child, Nou would usually be found following his father around.. He was quite the daddy's boy. At the age of four, Nou would become a big brother.. His mother having given birth to a set of twin girls. The moment he was allowed in the bed chambers to meet his sisters, he'd try to pick up both girls. Junjie had his hands full for awhile trying to make sure that Nou didn't accidentally hurt them. But once the girls were old enough to be walking and talking, the three children were always seen playing together.

By the time Noukie's sisters were two, Noukie and his sisters would meet a little boy from their father's friend... His name was Han. The girls were instantly wanting to play with him. Nou played once in a while. But mostly he was found still following his dad around. And always wanting his dad to pick him up or to get piggy back rides.. that sort. Just the typical daddy's boy right on through.

At the age of seven another would join their family... Nou would get a baby brother. Chung. Right away the moment he met his brother, he had tried to pick him up and carry him off. But his father had always stopped him. When his brother was able to walk and talk, Nou would start teaching him anything and everything that he had learned from Liu so far. Of course with Chung being so little, the boy didn't pay much attention other than to drool on himself and keep asking for cookies. But Nou loved him all the same and once Chung was old enough to understand, Nou would again try and teach him what he had learned. He wasn't very good at it though.. Because of that, Chung would start following Nou to training.

By this point, Nou's family now had five children counting him. The youngest having joined the family when Nou was nine. Another boy... Jiuye. Just as before, Nou took right to his brother. Adored him.

As the years would go by, Noukie had made friends with the neighboring Lord's son...Haru. They'd become fast friends and Nou had stopped playing and hanging around his sisters all that much. His time mostly spent horse playing and goofing off with Haru. Every once in awhile Chung and Jiuye would join in on the fun.

At the age of thirteen, Nou would form his first crush. But it wasn't on the gender most would expect.. He had taken a liking to a Japanese boy that had moved into the area. Thankfully, the boy returned Nou's feelings. When Nou had become convinced he was in love with the boy, Mei forbid him to see the Japanese boy. It got to the point that Nou would sneak out at night to go meet the boy by the lake. They were together a short time.. Not really long enough to get far with one another. But they did care for each other. The boys would be caught making out a year later. The Japanese boy's mother, grabbed her son by the arm and forbid them to see one another again.. Wasn't a week later and the family had moved away, leaving behind a broken hearted Nou. For the first three months, he did nothing but mope around and cry because he wanted the one he loved. Though it took him some time, he did eventually get over the boy and move on.

At the age of sixteen, he'd meet a girl in town that was new to the area. The two became friends and Nou would start hanging around her from time to time. The two grew close. Over the course of three months, the two had begun getting closer. Till the night he slept with the girl. From there on, the two were inseparable.. Always together. They were like that for two years.. During which the girl had never once seen Nou on a sugar high.. The one day it happened. He had been hanging around a fruit tree, got into a some fruit and prior to that, he had been eating cookies.. When the sugar kicked in, he was bouncing off the walls on an insane amount of sugar. The girl thought he had gone crazy and broke up with him.. Of course she waited till he calmed down to break it to him. Oh how he cried. He locked himself in his room and wouldn't come out. It took Haru and Chung to drag Nou out and 'help' to get him straightened out after Nou had been locked in his room for a good week.

Wasn't even a year later and his father had tried to pair him up with a noble's daughter. He wanted his son to have happiness.. But it back fired. The two did nothing but fight. Especially when she demanded him to cut his hair. Horrified and insulted, he snapped at her..This lead to a screaming match between the two. Shortly after that, when things had calmed, she'd turn to him and demand that he move in with her and leave behind his oath brother/best friend and his family. When he flat out refused, she called him a flaming gay freak, he grabbed her arm and lead her to the door before stopping at the the closed door. He screamed at her...calling her a closed minded bitch before opening the door and demanding her to leave. She slapped him and he called a bitch once more before slamming the door in her face.

Four months after that, his father attempted to once more pair him up with a girl. It worked. He fell in love with her. He was going to marry her. At the age of nineteen, she had become pregnant to him. He was over joyed..He was going to be a father. They began to rush things for the marriage, wanting to hurry and get hitched before the baby was born. But tragedy struck. She had been hit in the stomach by a boulder when she and her sister were fighting. She had been pushed and landed hard on it. She lost the baby because of it. Of course Noukie and the girl were both heart broken. It wasn't even a month after that, her family packed up and moved, taking her with them. Once again, Noukie was left with a broken heart.

The years would slide by, by this point Noukie was twenty two. He had picked up the pieces once again and moved on. Though he was left behind in a sense.. His oath brother/best friend had left for the army. Noukie felt left behind. So he'd begin to look into joining as well. The recruiting officer would tell him that he could help Nou with his swordsmanship...make him into a better swordsmen. Nou already was good. But he wanted to be better, so he'd agree. Though before he signed up, he began to pester his dad for two straight weeks about joining. After many 'hell no's' his father caved and finally said he could. Nou would leave three days later, joining the army. It was right after he left that his mother would 'die'.. Though Nou didn't know about that till he reached the training grounds.

His first week there, a fight would break out. It started out with a red haired guy asking Nou if he had anyone back home waiting for him. Nou simply shook his head no.. Sure by this point, he had a crush on Momo, but she was spoken for.. So technically speaking, he didn't have a girl waiting for him back home. He spoke the truth. The guy would shrug saying that's a shame. Nou had looked away, distracted by a cute guy, bent over making a bed. He had grinned saying the guy had a cute butt. At his words, the red haired guy rounded on him and called him a faggot before pushing Nou into a wall. That's all it wrote. Nou instantly went for his sword. The guy having seen this would kick Nou in the stomach before going to punch him. Nou snapped and bit the guy's hand hard enough to draw blood and still wouldn't let go. As he bit the guy's hand, he'd poke the guy repeatedly in both eyes before punching the guy in the stomach with both hands repeatedly. It took Haru and Jianyu to not only calm him down but to also be able to pull him off the guy. And even when he was pulled off the guy, Nou had a mouthful of the guy's blood, which he promptly spit in the red haired man's face, telling him to take his blood back too. This would land him with the nickname 'Black Dog' or 'The Dog' due to what he had done. Of course this lead to Noukie being punished later for his actions. He nearly sent home for it. But the commanding officer decided to be cruel.. Instead, he'd make Nou wear a mouth brace that was like a muzzle made for a human whenever the red head was around.

His first day on the battle field was the day after everything happened. He had come running out to Haru in tears, holding the brace. He was going to show Haru what he was going to be forced to wear. Though he'd get so far before a root of a tree that had been sticking up caught his foot and sent him flying into a pond, thankfully though he had dropped the brace on land and just sat in the water dazed before sitting...holding up one finger saying 'I meant to do that.' Before he'd try to get out. He'd reach for Haru though when he was close enough, accidentally pulling him in. Then he was fished out by Jianyu only to get slapped by Haru which would ensue those two beating each other up before they were pushed back into the lake. Though Noukie had pulled Jianyu in with them. Though this would also get the trio yelled at by the commanding officer, the man threatening to worsen Noukie's punishment if he didn't behave.

Over the years, Nou would be allow to return home on vacations and breaks from the army. Especially when it came time for the Chinese Festivals. During those return trips home, once home..He'd always find himself watching Momo.. Falling for her. Though still...she was taken.. He couldn't make a move.. And he wouldn't because he respected her marriage. Perhaps that was why when he left for the army after break, he'd always be found lounging in his hammock below deck when he wasn't sea sick with a pillow over his face. He'd look like he was sleeping..when in reality, he was shedding silent tears and didn't want to be called a girl for it by the others.

So now let's skip ahead to current days. Since the divorce of Momo after it was discovered her husband was beating her, Nou spent time with her while his father, Gau and Haru went to deal with the bastard. Spending time with her, he realized how much he really loves her. But still, he's not sure if he can tell her. So even after he returned to the army, his mind is still on her frequently. He may not have the courage yet to tell her how he feels, but at least he can think about her and wonder how she's doing.

He spends his time now, usually horse playing with Haru and Jianyu when they're not busy running drills. And at night, he always falls asleep thinking of Momo.
