UH Princess Tutu is pretty much meta of fairy tales which is pretty bitching. The premise is that long long ago a man had the power to make stories a reality and so a bunch of people got freaked out and chopped off his hands but then he wrote a story in his blood about a man who continued to write stories after his death. So the entire world is like A STORY IN A STORY. So Mytho is the prince of the original story and because eventually he got fed up with living in a story that was never going to end and split his heart into pieces to seal the monster raven. The actual anime itself is all about Tutu trying to get his heart back to him, Fakir alternately cockblocking her then turning into a woobie fanfic writing badass, and Rue turning from school yard elitist bitch to genuinely awesome love interest with a really awesome crow motif.
Anyway I think it is about one of the the coolest anime ever so you should watch it.
UM basically I think Aeris hit it on the head in that thread with had. Oz kind of wants to believe that Mukuro is a normal person and that eventually if he asks Mukuro about feelings and stuff he'll get an answer that isn't deeply unsettling but he's kind of... losing faith in that venture a little bit. IDK it's really complicated because Oz does respect Mukuro but I think that respect is in a weird way fading into fear. Out of all of the members of Ruby, Oz thinks that Mukuro is the most likely to actually hurt him. He does think that if he challenged Mukuro on the issue of Gil that Mukuro would hurt him, which kind of yea. Puts more into an already crazy situation. But basically, Oz is slowly coming to see Mukuro as a WHOLE LOT OF CRAZY in a person and while he knows that sometimes that crazy is on his side, he doesn't think that being Ruby would save him if he genuinely managed to piss Mukuro off.
ON A BASIC LEVEL Gil is Peridot! Peridot is Ruby's! Therefore Gil is Ruby's. Ruby is Mukuro's! Therefore Gil is Mukuro's! There is a very large sense of this now.
On another level, Mukuro has a maimcrush on Gil! HE IS PRETTY WHEN I HURT HIM. I LIKE THAT. This is also very simple and Gil has a WEAK GAZELLE PERSONALITY!!!! It was what drew Mukuro to him at first NO LIES.
Annnnnnndddd then there is the more . . . ambiguous level. MUKURO HAS. It isn't like "honestly like" because he doesn't really think of it like that. But Gil is something Mukuro likes. He thinks of it like "Gil is mine" or in the same way one might say I like Orange Juice. But he's also kind of possessive. And there is a not quite just strict GIL IS A THING I FUCK WITH but something else. So. Stuff.
. . . If Oz is told/figures out that being Ruby trumps everything for Mukuro will that change their relationship :|a
HE'D HONESTLY BE CONFUSED BY IT. mostly because Oz's concept of team is actually pretty weak. He wants to help Ruby in any way he can but deep down he doesn't consider himself a member of Ruby. And I think that would to an extent keep him from believing that being Ruby is going to save him from Mukuro. Basically he would need to find out not only that Ruby trumps for Mukuro but also that Mukuro considers him Ruby. Because there was the whole spare thing and even though that's gone now, Oz is still very (unsure) when it comes to Mukuro.
Even so, I think eventually it would make him a little bit more confident to talk about Gil stuff with Mukuro. Provided that he hasn't already talked to Gil about it. :|a
IDK. I AM ACTUALLY JUST. RIDING THE FLOW. I didn't think he'd settle into being as heavily in his personality where he is! IDK WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN HE RECEIVES HIS MORE NEGATIVE MEMORIES olol but just doing whatever seems to work great :3c
UM. Gosh I actually don't really know because Mytho is so crazy he's divorced from team politics except for how they relate to him. So he's kind of being kept on house arrest which he HAET. The extent of his knowledge is that Emerald did something to piss Asuka off so he kind of wants to use that to manipulate her into letting him outside every now and then.
Oh also Itachi is know KK has MIND POWERZ and he hates Jades with a loathing passion because if you are not part of the evil megalomaniac solution you are part of the problem.
The rest of them he's pretty take or leave though. Whatever, dudes, just win me memories. :|
You have to send your characters to different teams, which teams and why! Also like Oz with Gil or whatever is cheating so no doubling up on cast or whatnot.
Mukuro on Peridot unless that is cheating then idk anywhere is pretty the same to him cos he'd hate not being on Ruby. Unless it was FROM THE BEGINNING then idk he is kind of a loose cannon.
Breakkkk hmmm . . . Coral because he would get on best.. maybe. . . idk . . .
Aeris would be able to go on any team :|b
OZ CAN REORGANIZE THE TEAMS OF AATHER! HOW DOES HE DO IT? (includes partnering teams up, splitting teams, shifting people to other teams etc)
DUDE HE KNOWS HOW CRAZY YOU ALL ARE DO YOU THINK HE WILLINGLY WANTS TO PUT HIMSELF ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THAT? NO WAY.
Uuuh, I don't think he actually has issue with how any of the teams are divided? Except idk. He'd put Vincent on like . . . Tiger's Eye or Turquoise or something so that Iolite can just be THE COOL DRAGON and Duke with no Vincent mucking things up. :|
And of course he would pair up Ruby and Peridot. But they're already married anyway.
This is the part where I get lazy and just keep stealing your questions. |D TO MUKURO.
He would put Vincent and Asch on the same team. And then sort of divvy shit up randomly. Maybe Sharon and Kaworu and Kanji can come to Ruby. He doesn't have a lot of personal desires outside of immediate wants. . .
What do Oz and Mytho REALLY REALLY DEEP DOWN WANT RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!
Oz wants Gilbert to grow like HALF A SPINE and break up with Mukuro and smile more often. AND ALSO MAYBE FOR THE WHOLE THING WITH GOKUDERA AND CASS TO GET RESOLVED CLEANLY.
Mytho-the-raven wants HEARTS >E
Mytho-the-prince wants the raven gone. :/
Uuuh. HOW EXCITED WOULD YOU BE FOR AN AGE-UP GAME?
Memories have influenced Mytho the most! Cuz the raven thing is lolo canon but whatevs it was something I wanted to play with since I apped him.
Uuh, I'd say just RUBY AS A WHOLE has influenced Oz the most. He's gotten a little bit of nudging in particular directions from his memories and talking with Aeris and Elliot, but BY AND LARGE a lot of what differentiates him from canon!Oz is due to Ruby's horrible influence.
What's the most self-indulgent trauma happy thing you want to have happen to any of your characters?
Break is kind of a self-indulgent trauma character cos he just shuts down and claws his eye socket when he has angsty problems so :'D; his general existence.
MUKURO IS ALWAYS CRAZY? So I guess that is kind of self-indulgent trauma? I mean in terms of it happening TO him I guess get in over his head like he was with Riful.
At the current juncture I'd want to see Oz do something stupid and self-sacrificial that Ruby judges him for :|a IDK mostly I just want him to willingly get maimed in a game and for people to get pissed off at him for it.
Alternately, ONCE WE HAVE AN ALICE and he has his crazy powers back, I'd love to see him go crazy in a game situation and scythe the hell out of the other team.
FOR MYTHO I want him to take someone's heart. :I PREFERABLY LIKE. CUBIA OR KITE'S because Cubia is his replacement Rue and I think taking Kite's heart would be SO HILARIOUSLY BAD FOR THAT RELATIONSHIP.
plus Mytho would really regret it once he gets himself back.
Five characters you most want to see in Aather who are not from your canons!
He would run lots of silly games where you would have to like MAKE FLOWER CROWNS with your rivals or alternately apron fashion contests or crossdressing. Stuff like that. Outside of games he would play pranks on teams and be a huge troll.
TRICKERY GAMES!! The occasional sadist game. Mostly mindfuck games. Would lounge around being a lazybastard not during games. HAS A SEEKRIT DERE SPOT but in general is an asshole troll persona.
Uuum they are sort of all over the place. Like I mentioned with Oz, a ping that can hit me really well is having pretty angst. And not just being sad for the sake of sad, but when a character has legit trauma or issues and we see them struggle against it. Oz is a good example of this, so are Tokitoh and Konatsu. Aside from that, in terms of personality traits I tend to like shounen dumbtards, flailtsun, or silly noble boys. Kind of like Prussia or Rin for the shounen fail, Konatsu and Elliot for the tsun, and Oz and Ramza for the noble ping. I also can really like a character who′s full of themself if they fit some other pings as well.
HOWEVER, you will note I said boys! My pings for boys and girls are different. For girls it is pretty much necessary that she cannot be moony in love with anyone. This isn't to say I don't like girls in love, but I only like them if they play with romantic tropes or clearly exhibit strength in their own right. Haruhi and Shirley are good examples of my girl pings because while they're both kind of romantically involved it isn't like they can't handle themselves without the guy around. I also like girls who are comfortable in their sexuality like Lottie and Simca.
Also this isn't even touching on my villain pings which are pretty much...Jim Moriarty, Ukoku, and Lottie. In a nutshell.
• complicated relations to authority • dynamic personalities ( in terms of change or personal growth ) • bizarre faith or moral codes • STUFF I CAN ESSAY ABOUT ~FOREVER~ • traumatic pasts are a ping :|a • whacky family dynamics • POWER PLAY!!! I love weird power dynamics
OZ AND MYTHO IN SABRA TELL ME HOW IT WOULD GO DOWN
God it is so tragic that you will never play Kubota.
Uuuh man they would both probably be on Lacerta. Though maybe Oz on Cepheus and I suppose Mytho could be on Cetus. Anyway Mytho would depend on his memory order. He would be hilarious super blank at first and his team would need to take care of him. If he went raven it′d be hilarious cuz sabra is less tight knit so he could get away with more. If not he would just sacrifice himself a lot in games and try to help every team. People would side eye at him a lot.
Oz would probably wind up building his mental barriers and coping mechanisms a lot faster than in Aather. He′d be willing to take the dive for his team and would probably get pretty jaded to trauma games and team rivalries. He would try to break the mold sometimes if he met the right person but I think he′d be a lot of sad forever and just pushing on.
