[ryslig] I know I'm only here for 4thwall (and I need to do stone tags, I didn't do any yesterday whoops) but man sometimes I think I'm clever and sometimes I think I'm funny and I know I'm not either
kaiba's talking to chara (which is already A Bad Idea) and kaiba's just brought up the idea of like. if they're not chosen by the fog, and the fourth obviously doesn't have shit to do with this, what if there's a new third faction based on all of this sea shit
and given the f-theme, the sea theme, the fucked up creature theme, and the fact that i'm a dresden files nerd, I have already dubbed this imaginary 3rd faction Fomor
as an aside, now having re-listened to high noon over camelot for mordred's sake, man. bifrost incident is so good and I genuinely had a moment while watching loki that my brain started thinking about sigyn
I'm def just going under the assumption that dear brother noa hooked up his bruh with a laptop because seto would fucking riot otherwise. he's a magitech wizard. don't keep tech from him!!
neither of whom seem to have any particular sway over, specifically, The Sea. people coming from The Sea is kind of freaking people out! they sure ain't foggy's. both sides have opinions about The Pearl but have no direct control over it. no sides are claiming to have any influence over The Dreams about The Sea and the insistent eternal pull toward it
if the laptops have this capability, marik is going to take screenshots of kaiba talking about god and print the screenshots of kaiba talking about god and stick them in his pocket in plastic wrap on the offchance that when he makes it back to his world he will be able to show his sister
makes sense for kaiba to go 'NEITHER of these fuckers get to see shit', better to just slap it all up for everyone to see. first of all the high and mighty priests would just snitch and second Do You Think He Cares, He Does Not, Come Smite Him If You Want, Whatever
part of me is like 'ugh what if I sound stupid on the fake internet of the internet' but I keep having to remind myself that given the information at hand, a third player at...play is a fair theory to float (heh) even if it's absolutely wrong
it makes a lot of sense to me and also kaiba being a know it all ass about the plot only to end up wrong is supremely ic anyway so even if you're off-base you get to 1) be ic 2) thread kaiba suffering a disappointment. he takes those so well
he's not even going about it in an I've Figured It All Out Losers way he's going Here's A Theory Can Anyone Corroborate Does Anyone Have Any Further Ideas Thank You
man I still am not fully sure about monster prom but even if I do the prompt will end with 'and he just fuckin boogies on out of there babes' at least until someone drags him back but the more important realization this morning is that
I could narratively bring up something I'd considered before and that's I wonder if he had any feelings about school graduation and not being there for it. like no he wouldn't care. but also like.
he's been to school that is canonical you cannot just say it didn't happen, and it happened enough that it wasn't a big deal or people deliberately tried not to make it a big deal
I headcanon that there's some stipulation to his independence/emancipation/attempt at adulthood at like 14/15 where the govt was just like. look but you gotta go to school [x] number of days a year
given being super rich super (in)famous and uh at the time we're introduced to him super dangerous, I imagine he skates by without having to actually do any work so long as he can prove he was physically there
I feel like just an important visual note is that he will always wear his locket. maybe he grows out of his clothes and his body is a weird undulating shape, but the locket! stays! around his neck!
okay..........but, like, okay. he doesn't trust the Fog and hates being told what to do and he's not a big fan of dealing with magic that isn't his own/that he can't work himself rip. but I'm strongly considering him giving up his deck. Or at least...everything that isn't the bewds
maybe between the monster thing, the seeing everyone else getting the pull to the sea, and just the general fucking insanity, he might just desperately and half-crazed go LOOK! /chucks individual cards into the roaring vortex, perhaps with a manic laugh-sob
I wish I had something a little more interesting but he's got zero interest in the tage right now. I might do a thing later, or dump into someone else's tl, about maybe sacrificing his cards but I'm not putting it in his tl I think
man remember when I said kaiba's keeping his locket on, guess who blearily first thing in the morning suddenly remembered the bros aren't wearing them in dsod
like I want to think this is some kind of good development, that they realized holding the keys to the company around their necks is probably not actually like. the safest idea. and being secure enough in their love for one another that it doesn't necessarily feel...uh, necessary
he will be able to show his sister
I'm not surprised you know what it's like to be a real monster.mmmm he hates that even if he decided to argue it he can't actuallyalso me: man all these juicy tasty kaiba tags are good eats
and also kaiba being a know it all ass about the plot only to end up wrong is supremely ic anyway
so even if you're off-base you get to
1) be ic
2) thread kaiba suffering a disappointment. he takes those so well
