The Cutting Floor
It’s summer in San Jose. The May weather is balmy, even in the orange and violet twilight. I’m waiting in line with friends dressed as Gaara and Sasuke for the masquerade near the convention center.
I’m sweaty. My feet are sore. My drugstore eyeliner, so carefully applied in the hotel mirror, is smudged—half gone. I’m so content to be among friends. The soreness in my ankles is a badge of honor I display proudly on my lapel. Proof that I am a dedicated con-goer.
It’s my first time away from home without my parents. I feel grown. I feel free. I am among people who understand me and who love the very same things that I love. Thousands of people just like me.
Gaara says something to Sasuke—makes a joke. My laughter bubbles up from somewhere inside of me. It is full and trilling. It is a child’s laugh because I’m a child.
Gaara looks at me, his gaze is skeptical and sharp.
“It wasn’t that funny,” he says.
And so I trim that part of me away. It no longer fits in the container I keep myself in, so it’s time for it to go. I have to remember that jokes can only be so funny and laughter can only be so loud.
It is my junior year of high school and I am in love with a boy. He plays guitar and looks good in the color blue. He shows me how to read tablatures and I realize I can learn to play guitar, too.
He has a girlfriend across the country. I don’t plan on trying to ruin that. I am a good girl. But I can’t help and adore him even if the feeling is unrequited.
Sometimes we text late at night. It always makes me feel like I am stealing something. There is a sort of precarious danger to the exchange, but a thrill all the same. He tells me he finds me attractive and my cheeks hurt with how brightly I smile at my screen.
Our language becomes formal and surface level after that. I’m a good girl and he has a girlfriend. I’m not disappointed. I feel so happy to finally be beautiful.
I want to experience love, though. I want to hold hands with somebody and kiss them chastely in public. I want people to see how happy we are. It will never happen with the boy and I can be okay with that. We’re friends and I love that too.
I ask him one night why I am still single.
He asks if I want him to be honest.
My stomach lurches. I don’t want him to be honest. I want him to tell me he doesn’t know why— to tell me I’m a beautiful, interesting girl. But now that I know he is not going to say this I tell him yes. I tell him I want him to be honest.
“You are dark and odd,” he says.
I don’t know what he means, but I am too hurt to ask. I scour every conversation I have had with the boy I loved and trim away anything that looks dark or odd. I weep for the parts of me I have had to amputate and cauterize the open wounds on my heart. It is a painful necessity if I ever want to be loved.
I am twenty years old and I am feeling better about myself than I ever have. I’m recovered from a break up that crushed me and I’m playing the field. There’s a man I’m pursuing. He’s eight years older than me.
We’re best friends. We know so much about each other. We have seen each other cry. He is handsome and he seems to like me. I tell him I want to be with him. He says he’s on the fence.
One day in the summer, he rests his hand on the sun-warmed skin of my thigh as I drive with him through town. The windows are down. The wind whips through my bright red hair. I dyed it myself. I brush my fingertips through the undercut I had my hairstylist shave on the side of my head.
He sighs in comfort but takes his hand back. I’m like his sister, he says. I am not convinced. I steal a kiss from his lips in the silence between secrets. He tells me I’m a trouble maker, but he’s smiling. I’m smiling, too. He feels so close to something I can grasp.
Another day comes and it feels the same. But the marine layer refracts the sun in a way that hurts my eyes. I tell him we can work. I tell him we have all the trappings of a relationship.
He rejects me. I am like his sister, he tells me again. He doesn’t want to throw the friendship away. I bring up his hand on my thigh. I bring up the kiss.
“Look at you. You’re wearing braces. The side of your head is shaved. Have you seen the women I usually date? I date models and athletes!” He says.
I close my lips over my teeth and my brackets feel obstructive and foreign. When he goes home, I tell myself I will give myself a day to grieve the daydreams I had been spinning in rose-colored thread. He promises to be my wingman. I tell him about a boy in my life drawing class who has lips I want to bite.
I marry the boy in class instead.
It’s been ten years and I’m married. My best friend is recovering from an abusive relationship. We talk about the expectations her ex had for her, we talk about how she was incapable of following his rubric. She sounds sad and small. I hate it, because her joy is something bright and beautiful.
Her heart is like mine; full of sea-deep love. It is hard to reach the bottom of it. It keeps going.
Sometimes, her sadness turns to anger. It’s a welcome change after so long of being caught in someone else’s tide.
We’re talking one day and I pull out some tarot cards for myself. When I read the message in the cards, though, they seem to be for her. The card that represents her ex stares me down. He disapproves of the message I pass on to her. Good. That means she needs to hear it.
We parse through the cards and she shares a deep sadness that he could not love her for all that she was and all that she wasn’t. I can hear in her voice the frustration in retrospect of being unable to fit into the ideal he’d crafted for her.
That’s when I tell her that she’s not a failure for not contorting her body to squeeze into a box he’d made for her.
Sure, the box may be shaped like her, it may even be her favorite color, or be filled with all sorts of creature comforts that she likes, but a box is still a box. It still limits her. It still is forcing her to be artificially small for someone else’s comfort.
It’s one of the rare moments of clarity I have from time to time; when all of my own aches and traumas crystallize into an understanding I didn’t know I’d internalized. It feels good to say it to her, and it feels good to hear it come out of my own mouth. It feels good because I am also used to trying to make myself small for the comfort of other people.
Speak less, laugh quieter, dress this way, have these interests, get rid of those ones. Every day is a constant series of checks and balances to see if the me I am portraying is the one that is acceptable to the people around me. I see the evidence of everyone else doing the same thing.
Women who claim they're too old for pink and purple hair. Teenagers apologizing for their love of a certain type of music, or their fixation on a hobby of theirs. My clients asking if a look they want to try for their hair is a good one for them.
It strikes me as silly.
In a world where so many of us are trying so hard to make it through every day, why should we apologize for our joy? If our happiness doesn’t come at the expense of someone else’s, why should we be ashamed of it? If our understanding of the world around us has protected us and brought us to where we are today, why should we try to make our own unique flavor more palatable to someone who would never like it anyway?
Is it not better to simply find the people who love us for what we are and aren’t?
It’s not easy. It’s scary and vulnerable. It opens us up to pain that is sometimes worse than it was before. It’s easy to cope with rejection when it’s not the real us they are rejecting.
But when we find the people who love us, and I do mean truly love us, it is the warmest comfort there is.

wip wednesday thursday
this has been in my drafts for so long idk if I'll ever finish it buuuuut sns as rival hairstylists ✂️
////
Uchiha Sasuke is the most sought after hairstylist in Konoha. His salon, KUSANAGI, is consistently booked solid months in advance, with his own appointments scheduled even further out. After opening KUSANAGI at only twenty-two, he’s spent the past seven years building its reputation as the best salon in Konoha—the best stylists, the best service, the best experience. Their regular clients never leave unless they’re relocating, and even then, a few make regular trips back to Konoha just for their services.
Which is precisely why Uchiha Sasuke is currently perplexed. 
“That’s the fifth regular we’ve lost in three months,” he states, not bothering to hide his irritation. 
“I know,” Karin replies. “I got it out of Hinata that she’s seeing some guy who rents a booth at the salon suites in New Leaf Square. Ino is going to him too. He just moved here in January and apparently already had a big following online, so he’s been blowing up fast from word of mouth.”
Sasuke’s jaw clenches. He’s losing clients not to another salon, but to some freelancer? 
“Show me.” He walks to Karin’s side as she switches from the KUSANAGI business account that she manages to her personal Instagram account on her phone. A moment later, she hands it over.
Sage Studio, it reads, and beneath it is the stylist’s name—Uzumaki Naruto—along with the incredibly tacky tagline of hair with care. The profile picture is a close-up shot of an objectively attractive blond with the biggest fucking smile Sasuke’s ever seen. Ugh. He quickly scrolls down, looking through the various images of completed jobs. The guy is obviously talented, easily on par with their stylists, but certainly not better.
“I don’t get it.” He looks up at Karin, brow furrowed. “He’s good, but not good enough to make several of our regulars switch. Is he undercharging or—”
“No, his price list is comparable. From what Hinata said, it’s more about his… vibe.” 
Sasuke stares at her, uncomprehending.
“He’s…” Karin braces herself, “friendly.” 
“We’re friendly,” Sasuke says, sounding very much like he’ll murder anyone who disagrees.
“Right. But we’re more, well, professional, and he’s… like talking to a friend, I guess.”
Sasuke’s lip curls.
“I know, but that’s what people want. Some of them, anyway. I doubt we’d lose, say, Shikamaru or Gaara to someone like him.” 
Sasuke shoves the phone back into her hand and sighs. “Just… keep an eye on it. I’ll figure out what to tell everyone at the next staff meeting. And let me know immediately if anyone else leaves.” 
Karin nods, giving him her best reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, Sasuke. It’ll be fine.”
-----
“You fucking jinxed us.”
Karin groans, sprawling onto Sasuke’s couch with her glass of wine sloshing dangerously in her hand. “No one could have predicted Shikamaru would be taken by sunshine boy. Or Gaara, for fuck’s sake. He's gotta be—I don't know, giving out complimentary edibles or something."
When Sasuke doesn’t respond, she frowns, wiggling to sit up enough to see him in the kitchen. Sasuke is in the midst of typing furiously on his phone, his own thrice-emptied wineglass beside him on the counter. “What’re you doing?”
“Requesting an appointment.”
“What?! With Uzumaki?”
“Hn,” Sasuke confirms, finally setting his phone down and uncorking a new bottle of wine. “I’ll find out for myself what’s so special about him.”
“You do realize that means you’ll have to actually let him cut your hair, right? You never let anyone touch your hair!”
“It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for the sake of the salon," Sasuke says grimly, expression stony as he fills his glass.
"Yeah, okay." Karin snorts and relaxes back into the cushions. "I bet you cancel as soon as you're sober."
Sasuke glares at her darkly. "You're on."

Their relationships pt. 2 (Modern!AU) - ikemen sengoku (Uesugi-Takeda forces +Kennyo)
KENNYO SWEETIE IM SO SORRY I HAD TO GIVE YOU SUCH AN ANGSTY LIFE SKIFJDJSJ😭😭😭
Shingen is one of Kenshin's most frequent clients. The pianist needs to maintain his looks in order to impress his female audience! Another reason why he loves going to the hairstylist's boutique is because it's always swarming with beautiful ladies that swoon at the sight of two stunningly handsome men like Kenshin and Shingen. Needless to say, the latter never was one to wast an opportunity to flirt, and happily bestowes his attentions upon the women in the shop, causing the God of hairstyles to scoff at his annoying client. "Stop flirting with my clients, you horny boar." Though he may act like this, the two of them also have a relationship based on reciprocal respect and understanding, born from the countless drinks they shared over many years that eventually brought them closer
Shingen's old neighbor moved out, and in his stead came a young married couple with their little son, Yukimura. The boy's parents were enthusiastic to discover their favorite pianist lived in the apartment next door. Shingen, seeing how tight their schedule was compared to his much loose one, offered to babysit the little boy from time to time, earning the spouses' endless thanks. And so, Yukimura grew up spending more time with his neighbor (and his occasional female guests) than his parents, developing a deep sense of admiration and gratefulness for him, though hiding everything under his typical tsundere facade. "Yuki~ whenever you have a problem with a woman, don't hesitate to call me!" "Oh, shut up you old flirt!!". He believed that contrary to his frivolous appearance and behavior, the man also had a profound and respectable side to him, whereas the eternal bachelor who never seemed to set his eyes on one woman at a time, became unexpectedly attached to the boy, raising him up and treating him as if he were his own son
(Bonus: Shingen going to Yukimura's school plays in his parents' stead since they couldn't come because of work, and ending up chatting up the boy's teachers)
Yukimura and Sasuke were high school buddies! Despite having to move from one school to the other because of his parents' jobs, our astronaut has found in Yuki a real friend, making sure to keep in touch with him and hang out with one another even after his departure. When they were still classmates, PE was one of their favorite subjects; always on the same team together, their perfect dynamics and coordination made them an invincible duo with great physical skills, too. After his bestie moved to another town Yukimura was a little heartbroken, but he has never admitted such a thing even as an adult who can freely the other whenever he wants. Sasuke on the other hand, felt pretty guilty about the whole situation, but it certainly didn't kill his willingness to be with his first friend ever, and even when he goes to space for long periods of time, he always makes sure to facetime with him and narrate his space adventures
(I have 0 idea what kennyo's childhood was like, this is completely made up!) Kennyo grew up in a big but tranquil family, and has been friends with Shingen ever since the two were children. As they went to school together, Kennyo assisted to the birth of the other's incorrigible flirting habits, though this didn't make him value their friendship less. When college came into the picture, Shingen decided to apply for a foreign music conservatory whereas Kennyo was more interested in theological studies. The two of them rarely saw each other for a couple years, and when the chestnut haired man came back to Japan, he barely had the chance to see his friend before Kennyo departed as a member of a humanitarian organization that operated in the Middle East. His habit of putting others first was what brought him to make such a decision, and a couple years after his departure to war-torn countries, news came that he got into an accident trying to defend some civilians. Forced to come back because of his injuries, Kennyo shut everyone out of his life and went through a tough couple months, struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, trauma from war, etc. When Shingen visited him at the hospital, he was shocked to see how much his old friend had changed; a big scar was running from the upper right part of his face 'till the bottom left one and his eyes were dark, full of regret and hatred (probably towards the people that made war possible in those countries). It took Kennyo years and a lot of support from his family and his friend to go back to somewhat normal life, though still bringing within him permanent scars of his experiences. Despite not being very religious himself, Shingen made it a point to try and distract the priest from his heavy thoughts, going at a pub one night, taking him to an art gallery the other, and always reserving a VIP seat to his concerts, hoping to lift his spirits even if just a little
Sasuke was looking for a part time job to take on while he was attending college. One day he stumbled upon a beautiful man that looked as if sculpted from a block of ice, hurriedly trying to make his broken down car work again. Kenshin was in fact running pretty late to an important company meeting, where the topic was transforming his shop into a brand, and he definitely couldn't miss it. Sasuke, being the kind soul that's a bit of a jack of all trades when it comes to science and mechanics related things, offered his help and fixed the car in no time at all. Kenshin was left stunned at the agility with which the young man was moving his fingers, and gave him his business card, telling him that he wouldn't have hated the thought of someone like him working in his shop. In the end, Sasuke found his temporary job, and worked his ways through the ice cold hairstylist's heart, who grew to appreciate and consider him as one of his best employees. When our aspirant astronaut had to resign in order to make the next big step in his life, Kenshin felt betrayed and coldly accepted his resignation, cue Sasuke promising him to come back after achieving his dream job to help him with his business and Kenshin agreeing with a smile on his face

Things I would like to do after seeing this rooftop moongazing drinking party
Tumblr media
Find out who is the designer of the tiddy-window tops. They are fab and should be hire to create castle uniforms. Also, tassel earrings? LOVE.
Find out if the Fujibayashi twins braid each other’s hair? Or did they do each their own? Did Genya blackmail Sakuya?
Orrrrr is there a new hairstylist cause Hanzo’s ponytail is the bomb. Also Hotaru and Sasuke’s mops are extra fabulous.
Sougo should stick to this hair but somebody tell him he doesn’t have to wear his kimono ALL the way like some proper human being - he’s a ninja - just half would do.
Find out where Hanzo get his arm bracelet - gold looks fetching with that ensemble. Also, yes he should totally try Hotaru’s ultra gloss gel nail polish.
How did Hotaru keep his nail polish intact during missions? Oh wait, he doesn’t have to use his hands, just say the murder words. Kotodama is handy.
Sasuke, are you injured all the time? Take off that makeshift bandage (not an acceptable haramaki) so we can ogle your aaaabbbssss.
Yeah, Shima’s right. Maybe ditch the green scarf, Kyo? It matches your eyes but clashes with the colour scheme you silly red peacock. Also why are you two so layered? Let your skin breathe!
There is no way anyone here weighs less than 80 kg. Voltage needs a reality check on how much muscle weighs. Also I don’t see the point of stating character’s weight on their bio? What? Like we’re going to fatshame them?

Beautician!Kenshin Headcanons
ALRIGHT SO I’M LATE, BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY #1 LORD AND LOVER, KENSHIN UESUGI! Here, have some personal headcanons I have for Beautician!Kenshin because I couldn’t stop thinking about him. -Admin Yukari
Being well-versed with a sword, it wasn’t strange to see Kenshin wield a pair of scissors and be extremely talented with it.
While Kenshin was good with scissors in beauty school, he had to really work hard to keep up with the other necessary beauty skills, such as dyeing hair, washing hair, and practicing quality customer service. Sometimes his instructors would tell him to work on smiling more instead of frowning.
He used to practice on Sasuke, Yukimura, and Shingen but that all ended when all three of them were too scared to be near him and a sharp pair of scissors. 
Shingen complains that Kenshin isn’t gentle when he washes his hair and makes a point that customers can complain about getting headaches. Kenshin scoffs and calls it nonsense since Shingen’s scalp needs the harsh wash to get rid of his dandruff flakes.
Once, Kenshin tried buzzing off Yukimura’s hair with a razor, and it did not end as well as he thought it would. Yukimura was left with a few uneven spots in his hair and he was mortified to go out afterward. After this, Yukimura told Kenshin to work on his skills before using him as a sacrifice again in the future.
When Sasuke, with hesitation, decided to offer himself up to Kenshin to trim his bangs, it ended with Sasuke screaming in horror as he saw the straight blunt bangs across his forehead after Kenshin chopped it all off. It wasn’t until Kenshin stylized it in its usual manner did Sasuke sigh in relief and felt his heart return to its normal beat.
Kenshin is not fond of dyeing hair or bleaching it. He’s not a big fan of the lengthy process or the smell. He always says that it “takes up too much time” and doesn’t like how it gives his clients dead hair a few weeks later.
If they were brave enough, some of Kenshin’s classmates would ask him if he bleached and styled his own hair because of its unique style, but he would quickly tell them no and that it was “all natural,” much to their disbelief.
After graduating from beauty school and getting his license, Kenshin started off by joining a well-known hair salon in Echigo. It was the perfect opportunity to hone his skills and develop them even more. 
Right after he had his own booth, the owner of the salon started to notice the increase in clientele and couldn’t help but wonder if it was because of Kenshin’s skills or just himself in general. 
While most of his coworkers refuse to cut hair for young children because of their fidgety habits in the salon chair, Kenshin doesn’t mind. He usually gets them to stay still and quickly works his scissors through their hair, all while telling them to remain still if they didn’t want him to accidentally cut them. 
Even though women (and sometimes men) come flocking over to the hair salon and demand to have an appointment with Kenshin, he’s usually booked several months ahead. People usually have to wait 4-5 months for his next opening because Kenshin doesn’t like to pack his schedule too tightly.
Once Kenshin was informed that the hair salon would extend into other beauty services, he decided to quit and open up his own hair salon. Doing makeovers and nails was out of the question for him and he didn’t enjoy it as much as he did with hair. 
After opening up his own hair salon, Kenshin decided to establish his own rules. Sake Saturdays would be a thing among his employees, and he would happily accept sake and pickled plums as payment from his clients. 
Surprisingly, Kenshin gets also booked to do hair updos for weddings or special events. He’s willing to travel to his clients if they promise him a quality brand of sake too. 
Kenshin always participates in hair donations for organizations that use hair to create wigs for cancer patients. He believes in good causes and likes to make his hair salon known for donating the most qualified hair. It’s good publicity! 
Has a poor habit of talking with scissors and pointing at things with them. If things get heated in the salon, you better pray that Kenshin isn’t snapping his scissors at you as his voice darkens and he speaks faster than usual. 
Kenshin doesn’t listen to the music his hair salon plays. Instead, he carries his own black earbuds and smartphone to block out the salon’s pop music. He prefers instrumental music or even alternative rock.
One time Yoshimoto came in after hearing about Kenshin’s success with his new salon and he “accidentally” changed the music playing in the hair salon to extremely loud screamo music. It wasn’t long before Kenshin chased him out of the hair salon with his scissors and banned Yoshimoto from ever returning.
Even though he was taught to interact with his customers in beauty school, Kenshin is not much of a talker when he works on his client’s hair. He prefers to just listen to his music in silence, only speaking when he instructs his clients to follow him to the sink to wash their hair or to look at a certain angle while he cuts their hair. 
Despite this, Kenshin’s charisma always draws his customers to come back to him. It’s hard to resist him and his prices for his services too.
Kenshin cuts his own hair when it gets a little longer. He doesn’t trust anyone else to do it. 
Keeps his hair salon clean and sparkling every day. Kenshin can’t stand seeing a piece of hair on the floor if it hasn’t been swept and he doesn’t like seeing empty bottles of hairspray on the counters either. Proper sanitation is a must.
Kenshin’s salon eventually becomes the #1 go-to place for hair in Echigo, and he’s quite proud of his hard work. It’s a victory worth showing off! To celebrate, he eventually comes out with his own professional line of hair products and it hits off well among his clients and Echigo.  
Kenshin avidly avoids gossip and drama and refrains from participating in it. He wants his employees to keep it professional, but that all changes when a certain client keeps coming back to his hair salon and Kenshin develops the desire to get to know her better. His employees tease him about it and ask “What happened to the “zero tolerance policy” for gossip?” 
Eventually ends up hiring MC to be his social media and marketing promoter for his hair salon. All of Kenshin’s works of art for hair can be found on his Instagram and other social media websites thanks to MC’s meticulous work. 
His budding romance with MC starts when she allows him to use her hair to create more pretty updos and to test new methods. It isn’t long before Kenshin becomes quite comfortable with MC and loves the feel of her hair. He’s sure he won’t find anyone as open and accepting as her when it comes to being his test subject.
Once Kenshin and MC planned to get married, he asked her if she would allow him to stylize her hair for the wedding, and she agreed! It wasn’t every day that she had the chance to let Kenshin play with her hair. 
If Kenshin had children, they would be set for life when it comes to hair. He would be their one and only hairstylist. He can’t stand the thought of them seeing anyone else. Yandere much?

Their modern jobs pt. 2 - ikesen headcanons (Uesugi-Takeda forces +Kennyo)
Kenshin (hairstylist)
Kenshin's salon is always so full of people he even has a queue outside his shop
He only hires the best professionists out there, and he is definitely on top of the list when it comes to elites.
His long and delicate fingers are very skilled, they know what they're doing, and the feeling of having them running through your hair is a divine experience
He's said to be capable of doing miracles. Even the worst-looking and ruined hair will become like silk after his treatment! (some even say he's able to cure baldness lmaooooo)
He divides his time into dealing with his clients and thinking about commercial strategies to beat the others stylists' working places. He's so serious about it he considers it a war, and it also helps him get more and more popular!
Every employee is very friendly and kind towards the clients, whereas Kenshin is the only one who is unsurprisingly cold as ice, making him even more charming and adored by his fan/clients
Shingen (pianist)
Just like Kenshin, his fingers are of the most talented and experienced you'll find in the field, earning him a wide and supportive fanbase
His music style can vary from classical to original pieces that have a more sensual and elegant vibe to them. His songs are usually made into playlists used during romantic dates for couples all over the world; he even plays live for this very purpose! (he may or may not flirt with your woman, pay attention)
He's known as the "sexy pianist" (that sounds a bit lame doesn't it) and he receives hundreds of requests from magazines that want to interview him or have a photoshoot. Having Shingen as the cover for your journal will increase the sales a lot
But he's not only popular among women, due to his very friendly and laid back attitude, he's made friends with thousands of people and has connections in many countries across the globe. His audience is usually composed of adults, but the gender varies
Yukimura (firefighter)
The cutest firefighter you'll find in the fire station. His boyish charm make him very popular among girls and poor Yukimura is the subject of endless teasing from his elders
Despite him being young and inexperienced, he fights bravely and fearlessly against the flames, putting citizens' lives before his own
Refuses to do photoshoots for sexy calendars, he's so embarrassed by the thought you can see him going as red as the enginemen's vehicle
He's friends with many old ladies, having saved them and their cats multiple times from various incidents and stuff. He also helps them cross the road or carry groceries whenever he's off duty
Sasuke (astronaut)
Well, are we even surprised? Going to space would mean being on cloud nine for our genius scientist. We already know his love for astronomy is very deep and personal to him so becoming an astronaut would be a dream come true
You can bet he's going to make terrible space-related puns for the whole time, exasperating his fellow colleagues
Generally, he'd be very very grateful for the experience. His passion aside, he's finally able to make some friends and probably long lasting bonds with someone! It's like almost all his problems found a solution in space
He doesn't slack off either. He's one of the most hardworking ones in the team, although he often finds himself lost in thought as he stares at the Earth
Kennyo (priest)
YOROKOBE SHOUNEN he's kirei kotomine from the fate series
He takes care of all the strays he finds, be it cats, dogs or even kids. He feeds them, finds clothes for them through charity, and teaches them basic knowledge
He might even open an orphanage
At first though, many people are kinda scared of him because his slightly dark aura and tough appearance, but as they discover what he actually does, they warm up to him and help him by donating money to the church
He's never alone since he's always surrounded by his brethren. There's this solemn atmosphere that gets interrupted only by the ruckus of little kids playing outside
If it wasn't for that ambience, people would probably fall asleep during mass because of Kennyo's deep and smooth voice
