Stealing from Ikkaku and everybody else ha, I didn't even finish the prompt on my regular journal for this ask my characters any five things questions and they will respond except not Mytho IC because he fails at being self-aware. And Gert might not say anything except telling you to fuck off, so those responses would be OOC. But Bart will!

Five things Mytho remembers about Fakir and Rue as children!

Ha, can answer this IC...

1. Rue's hair was shorter, she had to start tying it up when she practiced before we went to the academy.

2. Before, Fakir walked ahead of me. Now whenever we go anywhere together he's by my side or slightly behind.

3. Rue needed me to help her balance when she was learning. And asked me to practice lifting her.

4. Fakir wanted bedtime stories, and he never wanted to fall asleep before the tale was finished.

5. They smiled more.

Five things Gert wishes Chase would never ever do but he just keeps doing them.

1. Baby, stop poking the sociopaths. You'll give me a heart attack.

2. You really don't want the white vans here in camp. They're worse than delorians and they have pedophile cooties.

3. One day Impulse is going to actually listen to you when you say "Mol's boyfriend" and you will regret it because you are overprotective.

4. Sometimes people don't want to know their futures, stop blurting it out. I know if someone told me mine without asking I'd punch them just on principle.

5. Why do you act like we're going to stay together forever? It sometimes makes me think that we are...

If Gert could go back in time and change five things in her life, what would they be?

Date: 2006-12-22 05:23 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] arse-nick.livejournal.com
I wouldn't because I've gotten enough of the superhero drama and my 'rents to know that would be a spectacularly bad or desperate idea. But maybe if things didn't change too much I wouldn't have minded little things. For example, punching Alex in the face for fucking us over like a bad D&D campaign if it didn't result in all of us being eaten by grues.

I'd tell Nico I was sorry for liberating her My Little Ponies, instead of calling her a facist cowboy. Girl, whatever.

I'd make Chase eat Karolina's baked tofu the first time she made them, instead of listening to my mom making me feel self conscious about eating healthy.

I'd stop myself from reading anything by Herman Melville.

...probably would have been nicer to Chase when he lied about tripping on the stairs and we both knew it was a lie.

Five favorite people to dance with for Mytho.

Date: 2006-12-22 06:00 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wingsinthedust.livejournal.com
1. Tutu, because she makes him feel warm and all the pain he feels in his heart melts away when he's dancing with her. The pas de deux after he got his feeling of love back is still the least sucky moment of his life.

2. Rue, because he's always danced with Rue and they suit each other. Besides, even if he's still lonely and in pain after dancing with her, Rue doesn't seem as sad. And Mytho likes that.

3. Mizumachi, because when he throws Mytho up it's the highest lift he's ever had. And Mizumachi likes freestyle ballet, what with encouraging Mytho to dance pantsless.

4. Rabi, because Rabi knows these strange dances that aren't ballet and Mytho wants to learn them so maybe he could understand expressing feelings better. Plus Rabi can improvise.

5. Fakir, because even if they don't dance together really everyone said they were best friends because they danced well. And Mytho thinks if anything can be a reason for Fakir being near then it would be nice to actually dance with him.

Five thoughts Bart has on the relative morality of buying a copy of Devil May Cry 3 when he gets home.

Five shards Mytho would like to get back ASAP.

From: [identity profile] im-impulse.livejournal.com

1. I'm not gonna buy it until I can get Blue Beetle to promise reformatting the software so Lady's playable

2. ...well it's not like I'm playing Devil May Cry 2, right?

3. I will not purposely make Vergil walk into walls. I will not purposely...

4. If I buy this, I should at least never tell Lady about Dante being an extra in Marvel vs. Capcom

5. Sprock it, I'm just gonna go world hop and help Lady out like a good teammate!

Because Mytho doesn't actually know what these feelings are he couldn't answer IC, but he wants most the shards that would help him fight against the monster raven's influence right now...

1. Courage: to balance his feeling of fear and find the strength to go on

2. Wisdom: to temper his feeling of curiosity

3. Compassion: to not only want to protect those he loves but understand their feelings

4. Happiness: to counteract his feeling of sadness, and to understand what it is to have a true happy ending

5. He doesn't know it but the feeling of relinquishment, letting go...

1. Okay, if I was going to make a business of the cape deal, Oracle is the best way I'd go about it. I mean, this person can network and hack any system. Instead of going out and busting heads she collects information. I bet he likes Macs too...

2. Squirrel Girl. There's no way I could take her seriously mind you, but apparently if she can give the ruler of Latveria problems with nut-chucking rodents...well.

3. Spider-Man. Maybe. I mean, the guy gets enough bad rap. I don't believe the Bugle about how he's the anti-Christ, and I guess there were enough times it was believable that he saved, well, everyone. But I bet if someone gave him enough cash and a cushy guard job he'd probably give it up. Nobody is that selfless.

4. The Question is a paranoid conspiracy nut. But at least he would have called the Skrull burger mess way beforehand.

5. ...Molly. If she doesn't grow out of it, I think she'd be someone I could trust to do the right thing. And fuck you, she counts.

Five things that Mytho would do for Kairi. Just because.

Five ways that Mytho would show Kairi how to dance.

Doing the easy one first

Date: 2006-12-23 12:12 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] wingsinthedust.livejournal.com
1. “Dance with me.”

Kairi blinked and looked at Mytho as he finished his routine. She had accidentally came upon him as he was practicing, but

“Mytho, I don’t even know how. Isn’t ballet really hard?”

“It doesn’t have to be ballet.”

Kairi giggled. “The only dance I know is the Hokey Pokey, and the way Goofy gets mixed up after the second turn around...”

“I don’t know it. Would you teach me?” Mytho asked, his hand held out.

Kairi looked at him, at his hand, and then sighed. “Okay, you put your left foot in...”


2. When Mytho silently took her hand and led her out onto the dance floor, Kairi thought maybe this was how Aurora, Snow White, Jasmine and Belle felt when they were treated like princesses. She loved Sora beyond all sense, but knew he would have a hard time not stepping on her feet. Riku would be better, but imperious when leading, and inevitably it would end up the same way with her running into him, or racing to catch up.

It was like Mytho was barely guiding her. There was no weight as he cradled one outstretched arm, his other hand on her hip as he glided them along the floor in a waltz. One, two, three; one two three... Each time they spun it felt like she was the turning point and he was circling to meet her.

At first she looked for his face, hoping for a cue when his eyes met hers but they merely stared on past her. It was only when she finally got caught up in the music did she realize he was doing it to frame her steps, and compliment her by paying attention to what she wasn’t consciously thinking about when she moved. When they finally finished Mytho bowed.

“I didn’t really do anything,” Kairi declared.

“You did everything,” he responded quietly.


3. “Are you sure about this Mytho?”

The fairytale prince nodded. “Ballet takes years of practice, but he said this was much easier for beginners.”

“You haven’t tried this kind of dance either, huh?” she mused, “Well, it will be fun learning together.”

Impulse perked up from where he was setting up the screen and flashed a thumbs up to both of them. “Okay you guys time to DDR!”


4. “That is an arbaresque,” Mytho explained to Kairi as Fakir held Ahiru’s waist and tried to keep her from overbalancing as she stretched upwards. “The ballerina may hold that position before leaning on her partner as he turns her. Or he can lift her.”

“Hn,” said Fakir. Who, to Kairi’s eyes, was clearly not minding the procedures as much as he thought he should since he wasn’t scowling, but merely trying to keep himself from looking pleased.

“Wh-why am I--we doing this again?” Ahiru asked as Fakir picked her up into the air.

“Because you need the help,” Fakir said, not-unkindly.

“And Rue threw a shoe at Fakir the last time they danced.”

Kairi tried not to giggle at the image. “How did that happen?”

“From the fifth position,” Mytho said, in that literal way of his.


5. “First, you remember.”

“Remember what?” Kairi asked, feeling self-conscious about how her ankles had turned out to the sides and her arms were held above her head.

“Posture. Sight. Breathing,” Mytho said, “Everything you forget when you exist. Because you don’t need to remember it all the time.”

A twinge of concern sprang up as Mytho echoed something she heard from the Nobodies. He wasn’t like Roxas or Namine, but it still hurt her to think about him in the same situation as those closest to her. She looked on but he had yet to notice her look of compassion, or he didn’t know what it was.

“The body comes first. It moves when something like music makes it move. You don’t need to think, or feel anything, just let it happen.”

“Then what?”

“You’ll dance how your feelings tell you to,” he said as he moved behind her to adjust the position of her shoulder. Kairi could feel the faint irregular beat of his half-finished heart. “By then, you don’t need to remember everything else.”

1. Falling asleep in the library wasn’t a good idea. Even if it was more silent than normal cabins, they didn’t have comfortable desks and chairs to sleep in. Kairi rubbed her eyes, trying to remember which fairytale she was reading, hoping for another connection to the worlds she had heard of, when she sat up and a blue coat felt off her shoulders.

Kairi yawned and picked it up, noticing the familiar pattern. “Fakir?”

“It wasn’t me,” the dour knight replied. Then, as if offhandedly remembering he liked her, “The idiot thought you would be cold since you were reading ‘the Snow Queen.’”


2. Kairi was out in the woods, surreptitiously practicing her keyblade technique. She would become stronger, like Riku and Sora did. But maybe after she finished the basics—another swing and she spun to find Mytho looking on silently.

Kairi, feeling sheepish, tried to hide jewel laden keyblade behind her. “Hi Mytho! What are you doing here?”

“Birdnest,” was all he said. Holding out a fallen branch and showing off a few scratches from where he fell trying to keep it secure in the tree at the price of his own balance.

“You’re hurt!”

Mytho looked down at his scratches. Then back up. “Ah. ...is that a sword?”

“Yes,” Kairi said sheepishly. “I was practicing. But we should get you back to Fakir or the hospital—!”

“To protect?” Mytho asked, completely ignoring her concern. Kairi had begun to understand Fakir’s frustration for caring about someone who had no regard to their own safety over others. But then, she had grown up with Sora.

“Yes. I wanted to use my keyblade. Like that time with the heartless.” A small flinch crossed his face, and Kairi knew it probably wasn’t from his injuries. She sighed. “I’m trying to get better.”

Mytho was silent, then, with the expertise made innate in him, he threw the branch up and caught it to hold out like a makeshift sword. “I could show you.”


3. Kairi didn’t know how Mytho convinced Rue to let her watch them dance the pas de deux from Swan Lake, but she was glad he did. Rue, for her part, was pleasantly civil before they started, and only as visibly possessive of Mytho as far as it was Odile’s role.

When they finished, Rue made a dismissive farewell and went off to change.

“That was wonderful, Mytho. How did you get Rue to agree letting me watch?”

Mytho looked on where Rue had disappeared. “It’s because you’re her friend too.”


4. When Mytho held the pet rabbit Rabi gave him for Christmas, Kairi was always a little amazed at how very gentle he was. It was as if, when his attention was on it, the rabbit was his entire world.

And then Mytho held it out to her, murmuring softly. “Please. I know you will be gentle with it, even if its heart beats so fast.”


5. When Mytho kissed her hand she wouldn’t say it was a surprise—okay, it was a complete surprise but somehow she felt it shouldn’t be, because it was very slow and formal and if she had just been paying attention...

“Have I upset you?” he asked, still knelt down and holding her palm.

“Not-well, it’s more—why did you do that?”

“I wanted to,” he responded in all innocence. “Is that all right?”

Kairi was suddenly reminded the Nobodies weren’t quite the same, and felt a little relieved. There were some things she just didn't want to explain.

Five things Mytho wants Fakir to say or do:

1. Be kinder to Ahiru/everybody who is trying to make friends with them. Make friends Fakir :/

2. Stay. Even if he’s already doing everything in his power to keep by Mytho and not die like the story says, the thing Mytho will always think when he’s asked “what do you want Fakir to do?” is “continue to stay with me until the story ends.”

3. Say “I’m happy.” And Fakir has mean it, in the obvious way that Mytho could physically see.

4. Promise to stop him if he threatens to hurt anyone should the raven takes over his heart again. Even if it means shattering his heart or killing him.

5. Say “I don’t protect you simply because the story gave me that role.” Mytho would never be able to believe it, but Fakir fighting against the story plus maybe acknowledging he cares for Mytho as more than the prince would...well, be something he would want to keep in his mind when he was despairing.

Five things Mytho wants Rue to say or do (ooh parallel):

1. Be kinder to Fakir/everyone who is trying to make friends with them. Make friends Rue (a-and stop trying to maim Fakir especially) :/

2. Stay as Rue.

3. Say “I’m happy.” And she has to mean it, although she could cheat better than Fakir does about fooling Mytho.

4. Let him die if he becomes the prince of ravens. Because Mytho knows he won’t love anything if that happens and her holding onto him even then is a terrifying feeling for him.

5. Stop loving him. Which he will never actually get except for the “being in love with you causes her pain, so if she stopped loving you it would be better” because he doesn’t get love, he’s only had it for a few months and it’s messed up already. And he would still love her in the way he loves everything else so it would be okay.



And, um, five things Fakir will never say to Mytho/Ahiru/Rue because of spoilers (but he really wants to)? ♥~?

danceallknight: (our happy ending)
From: [personal profile] danceallknight
...uh. Well to all of them he'd like to say "I'm sorry" for being the only one with closure at camp and not being able to help them here. But I don't think that really counts, since he'd like to say sorry for a lot of stuff.

To Rue: I misjudged you. Be happy with Mytho.

To Mytho: I know you can defeat the raven. Be happy with Rue.

To Ahiru: I don't deserve you. Don't leave me. I like it when you smile. Don't stop hoping. I'll stay with you, as long as you want me to.

...it was really hard to think of stuff for him to say to Mytho, actually, because Fakir is kind of least retarded around Mytho as far as spoilers go. (He really should flat out tell Mytho "You're my friend" one day, but that isn't a spoiler thing. >>)
