((Hearing about all that is only going to give him more reasons to never forgive himself. He might act calm but on the inside he’s very angry at himself. If he finds out about all of that he would basically hate himself and everything he did.))
(Yeah, kinda figured. My Kaito might be mad, but he’ll eventually forgive him when it’s obvious Toichi never meant for that to happen. The ironic thing is, it’s true what Toichi’s said in other threads before. Showing the room, he did, but he never told Kaito to do his job. Thereby meaning that Jii and Chikage did more of the encouraging to bringing Kid back. Jii might not have been happy, but he started it and supports Kaito. Chikage should have known better, though, even if they all might have wanted to know the exact reason behind Toichi’s ‘accident’.
Basically, a lot of assumptions the characters make, even if Toichi actually being alive weren’t a possible thing. Everyone involved has made mistakes in this.)
“But really oyaji? A cassette tape? CDs were around when you were active, you could have put so much more on them instead of a relic that doesn’t do as good a job withstanding the test of time… The anime did one thing better, with the jukebox, but still. Really?”
(Oi, Kid, get out of here. This is mun talk, not for the muse to jump into…)
(Well, if Toichi’s worried about possible nightmares from a few pictures… I’m sure he would love to know about all of this happening to his son in the time he’s been gone… And that’s just Kid damage, let’s not think of possible emotional blows the years following the death of his father had on him.)
“A dirty old sheet is one thing I’m not going to scavenge. People only throw those out when they’re really messed up.” Shudder. “I could just take a fresh one, I guess. Would have to find a secluded place to hang that hammock… sleeping on the ground and on a bench doesn’t attract that much attention, but making a hammock, that’s an unusual sight around here.”
“Depends on the people throwing it away. I’m sure some people just wouldn’t want to deal with a bad stain on some. Though I suppose it’s true that’d be hard to find… And though I hesitate to suggest outright committing more crimes outside of gem searching, it’s less of a concern when you’re on hard times anyway and it’s necessary… If you do steal one, take it from a hotel or such. I know they aren’t the best of choices, but you could aim for an empty room. Those are usually washed, and it’d be better than taking it from a store that might have better security for thefts.
As far as attracting attention…”
“Well… true, it’d be noticed if you set it up in the park… But so long as there’s something to hang it from, there’s no reason something like that can’t be used where there are less prying eyes. Just because you’re on the run doesn’t mean you need to be tied down to how most might act in that circumstance. You’re free to move and be as creative as you want with how to act and live right now, after all. Things don’t have to be all bad, even if they’re a temporary problem. Could even consider yourself Aladdin right now~ Things seemed to work out for him.”
“I am always sore.” Streeeeetch. “These days I make a pillow out of my shirt and lie on that. It’s nice to be outside, though the sun just might bleach my hair at this rate. Can you imagine me with light hair?” A laugh.
“I’ll just go back to the park.”
The image of a fair haired magician did manage to make Kid chuckle lightly, then he tilted his head.
“We need to set up a day for you to relax at some point…Maybe get you another massage, even. Though… an idea for a bed right now. It shouldn’t be too hard to get a sheet or such, so I think a bed along the lines of a hammock would work better than just a shirt pillow… Get you off hard ground, in any case.”
Mun: Rai Age: 21 Relationship status: Single and fine with that Character(s): Kaito, Spider, a Descole somewhere in my mind… Axel, no, you’re not a muse, put your hand down Do you follow others of the same character: Yes. Flaws: Horrible at communication. Speaking to others, handling calls, maintaining contact after I move away from people… I tend to never forget and relationships don’t change no matter how much time passes, so it might seem weird that I can never speak to a friend in over a year or two, then randomly call to say I’m in town and say hi. And that one carries over to my muses as well, they rarely forget interactions, no matter how long ago it was or how short it may have been. Roleplaying experience: Almost a year on tumblr. Maybe a cumulative of one to two more between chats and forums, but tumblr is by far the longest I’ve kept it. I basically came in without a clue how to do things, so that it went this well is amazing. (And I get the feeling people might have thought I knew what I was doing… Kaito’s easy for me to grasp, but I had a much harder time with setting Spider up solidly.) Ships: All DC/MK canon pairings, most pairings between the Gosho Boys and some between the Girls, LaytonxClaire, KyokoxRen AntiShips: None that I can think of at the top of my head, I’m pretty open to things, even if I don’t necessarily ship them myself. I’m not actively against any. Favorite character besides your own: Heiji, Hakuba, Akai, so many from anime that I don’t even Do you play AUs? I can, though I play canon more by default. Just a habit. Angst Rps? Sure NSFW? Yep Fluff? I will drown you in it, stg. Crack? Actually… much as I like reading crack, it’s hard for me to be random myself. I’d say yes, but with a grain of salt, since I’m not sure where the line would fall between crack and Kaito being random again? Are you selective? Not really… Though I’ve been thinking about saying I’m semi-selective? Because I’m fine with any fandom, OCs, Anons, anything, but I do have some stipulations now that I’ve seen more. Because I can now tell when people really aren’t ones I’d like to RP with, regardless of how open Kai might be with them… Other blogs you’d like to recommend? littledetective, flora-reinhold-cosplay, flyawaythief, thexdemorextwins, osakandetective Final words? I will eventually be back more consistently! …I hope. I know everyone is sweet and doesn’t mind, but it bothers me more since I do keep up with everything and do want to interact, and I miss everyone just because of decisions I’ve made and still need to make
“…… Mmm, so you’re now saying, in some really weird way, that if one of us dies then things just sorta keep going and nobody realizes that a Kaito sorta… vanished? Dropped dead? Bit the dust, all that? And that ‘cause I found my Pandora, I made all of us harder to kill?
“I don’t follow that last bit. I’m the only one who has immortality. Aaaaand even then it isn’t absolute. I have at least one death condition that I’m aware of. It’s not like I’m sharing my lifeforce or whatever with all the other Kaitos.
“Also, I don’t know why I did what I did. It just sort of happened. I didn’t mean it.”
“… Not really. People would notice if, say one of us died in front of them. And if no other Kaito is sharing the universe at the time, then it’d still be noticed in world as a whole. Just the crossing over makes it more likely for there to be more than one in the same dimension.
And you attaching Pandora to yourself didn’t change anything about the rest of us. When I say ‘collective Kaitos’, I mean if we think in terms of all Kaitos as a whole. Umm… a being made up of smaller versions of itself, if you will. Killing one of its parts would make it smaller, until you completely get rid of it.
The individual versions are us without dimension crossing. The larger being is all of us together with the crossing, in terms of existence. With us together, we’re harder to be destroyed.
You using Pandora strengthened a part of the being. Not all of it, just one unit. If we all did that, the being would be impossible to kill. Never said it’d be impossible to kill the ones who use Pandora, just makes it a lot harder. It’d still be best if none of us died normally, though, immortality stone or not…
The last part… If Pandora was gone from all the worlds, there wouldn’t be any dimension crossing. Period. And no chance for ‘immortality’. You choose not to destroy it, so people still can even if all the others might be destroyed. If we all do what we set out to, you’re the one that’d still be letting people talk to alternate selves, because Pandora would still exist. It’s not entirely a good or bad thing…”
“Maybe breathe once in awhile so you don’t pass out in front of me. Handler wants to ask if you can break up those walls so she can follow better! Her brain has trouble reading biiiig paragraphs.”
(Hush, you.)
“So… you’re saying there’s more than one Pandora, and it’s ripping up the universes?”
“Ah… sorry.” Tends to get out of hand with rambling when a train of though catches hold.
“That’s basically it, yeah. Though, not ripping in any ‘end of the world’ type of way, just enough for some interactions to keep the chain of potential immortals going.
Think of it like how you have infinite lives in some video games, but where you have to reset to a certain point because of it. Except, instead of one person having all those lives, it’s spread infinitely though the universes. Doesn’t do much for them separately, but if they can interact with each other, the collective ‘Kaitos’ could, say, have two or three ‘lives’ in one universe.
It wouldn’t care about the individuals though, so it’d be the death of one, but if there’s more than one Kaito in the universe that happened in, then to the world, he never died. One is dead, but there’s still an existence.
Finding and using Pandora increases the resistance to death for each individual Kaito, making it even harder to get rid of all of them, and thus, granting a sort of ‘immortality’ to us.
…But that might also mean that if we all destroyed the Pandoras, then the holes would close and we wouldn’t be able to see our other selves again. …So while what you did might not have been the best of plans, situations like that might at least let us continue talking like this. It just also makes it harder to entirely get rid of the problem of people looking for it.”
