So I guess Desde told I had a freak-out, huh.

Comments

[naturalcure]

Yeah well, your mind isn't a time bomb if it gets poked wrong.

[wherethewildthingsare]

Yeah, I can only rip a normal person's arms completely off like a gorilla.

[naturalcure]

Hffff.

I'll need to get some help, but I'll. Try it.

Thanks.

[wherethewildthingsare]

...But this isn't why you're talkin' to me, is it.

[naturalcure]

...

Hnnm.

What makes y'say that.

[wherethewildthingsare]

I mean I figured you'd have some kind of valuable insight, or to tell me to avenge you, or something.

[naturalcure]

Unfortunately, I don't have much more insight than what Desde's already revealed, at least not that I can think of right now.

...and I don't really want to be avenged on this one.

[wherethewildthingsare]

Based on what Desde and Kiko told me, I got a pretty good profile on this guy going.

Not 100%, but I am relatively certain I am right.

[naturalcure]

And what's your profile?

[wherethewildthingsare]

...okay.

Firstly, I don't think this guy is a 'new' signer.

I think he awoke as a signer before any of us.

Meaning more than a decade ago.

[naturalcure]

Y'mean before any of you, but, yeah, that's the feeling I got too.

[wherethewildthingsare]

So.

From there, we can draw a couple conclusions.

One, this guy is young. Probably a little past 20 at the oldest. They were a kid when they got this dragon. That's why we never heard of them before. They either were so young Blackfeather stopped them, or more likely, they simply didn't have the agency to get to Domino. Probably either foreign but with Japanese parents, or from somewhere way in the sticks here in Japan.

Two, they have a chip on their shoulder for that exact reason. They know the Dark Gods and the fucking.. that WRGP stuff happened. they have to. And they didn't get to help with either.

[naturalcure]

Yeah...I think that sounds like it could be what we're dealing with.

[wherethewildthingsare]

...There's more.

Kiko says he's probably the one that fixed AFD.

So it sounds like he's pissed we weren't on that.

He never gets to do his job as a signer, grows up, comes to Domino, we drop the ball, he's pissed and wants to prove himself on people he's considering beneath the roles we were given...

...There's one last thing but it's what I'm least sure about. He said he was the 'heart of the signers' right. Like, not 'I have the heart'. But he called himself the heart.

[naturalcure]

Yeah. I heard that part.

[wherethewildthingsare]

....

I think they might be an orphan.

Cause their behavior and that line makes it sound like they consider being a signer the core of their identity.

So they identify that strongly as a signer, never get to act on it, and see us fucking around...

[naturalcure]

...so he decides to set us straight one at a time.

It's not airtight, but...

...certainly sounds possible.

[wherethewildthingsare]

The problem is I now have no idea what to do.

Even if one of us kicks his ass, it probably won't set him straight.

And talking probably work either.

Right now I'm leaning towards 'infuriate'.

[naturalcure]

Whaddaya mean?

[wherethewildthingsare]

To go so absolutely far off their script that it breaks.

[naturalcure]

...

Whaddaya mean?

[wherethewildthingsare]

Okay so.

They probably have mentally prepared for me to try and talk to them, or to try and fight them, or to try and duel them.

So I figured I could do something else.

[naturalcure]

Like what, challenge him to a dance off?

[wherethewildthingsare]

I was more thinking the opposite of anything he'd like me to do.
