Big fan of People calling Alastor Bambi, but what I don't see, is people explaining to Alastor WHY they call him that.
This boy died before that film was probably even thought of. He's older than Disney making films in general. At a push he would know Disney as the guy who made the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit shorts, and nothing else.

Everyone knows Artists hate drawing hands, and the other eye. But here some other things I ALSO dislike drawing
Eyebrows
Ears
Shoes/feet
Side profiles
Awkward angles
Reblog/put in the tags things you also dislike drawing. I'm curious
Tumblr media
Also a wip of my next drawing, because its so satisfying when you do something you dislike drawing and it turns out exactly how you wanted it to

Hot take (granted it’s about a show almost 40 years old but I’ve never seen this come up anywhere else): Muten Roshi, the Kame Sen’nin, is one of the most traumatized characters in Dragon Ball. 
Tumblr media
Yes. This dork.
Wait, wait, hear me out, I know his reputation, but bear with me...
I’m essentially expanding on thoughts I’ve had for a while and started putting into to words through an ask for @dragonballwish​ but I had another epiphany on the subject a few days ago and now it’s all boiling over. 
All right, everyone knows Roshi is the OG Dragon Ball sensei character, the one in the memes about perverted old men, who people probably like to laugh at but maybe not talk about at length. I’m not going to list instances of the sort of behavior that gave him this reputation, IYKYK and all, but what if Roshi had a reason for living isolated in the middle of the ocean, away from people, interacting more with animals and sea creatures than other human beings, who in all likelihood will die long before he does?
No, I’m not accusing Toriyama of doing anything other than his usual MO of flying by the seat of his pants, I’m just saying, the pieces are there for a pretty compelling narrative/character arc.
Roshi’s vague about his personal history. When Dragon Ball gets rolling with the Wuxia elements of the story, he’s iffy about taking on pupils; he primarily makes the initial offer to Goku because he’s Gohan’s grandson. He only takes on Kuririn after the boys bring Lunch back to Kame House for... let’s call it companionship. Despite his choice to live alone, one could infer that he’s actually truly lonely. Hell, his goofy perversions could easily be the result of extended isolation, which all of us know does weird things to the mind.
Wish actually brought up this point; his isolation likely started after seeing the results of his teachings in Ox-King and Son Gohan, one a pillager, a murderer and a hoarder of treasure, the other thankfully not violent but uninterested in interacting much with the world (seems like Gohan also had his own sad story.)
He takes great pains to keep Kuririn and Goku from getting swelled egos; perhaps not only for the sake of their growth, but so as to avoid the mistakes he made with his previous pupils, Son Gohan and Ox-King. 
He’s unfazed by most forms of threat to his life; Goku’s Ozaru form startles him, sure, yet he refuses to kill his student despite clearly being capable of doing so and chooses a far more drastic alternative instead. The Red Ribbon army showing up at his house only get taunts, a chuckle and a beating until someone takes Lunch hostage. Even then, he discourages her more violent persona from killing the soldier who threatened her; his appreciation for the sanctity of life could be part of his own disciplines, but it’s just as likely something shaped by his experiences.
He drops out of the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, despite hints that he could’ve gone to the finals again if he’d continued; he plants seeds of altruism in Tien’s mind to sway him away from Shen’s violence and in his words, foster the growth of a new hero. 
We only learn anything of substance about Roshi’s past when 22nd Budokai arc ends and kicks off the start of the Piccolo Daimao saga. 
And it’s here that we see Roshi well and truly rattled for the first time. 
Roshi fought Piccolo Daimao alongside Mutaito and his fellow students; the battle cost him the lives of his friends and his master. Worst still, Shen, the only other martial artist shown to have survived the fight and the Kuririn to Roshi’s Goku, turned bitter; the last friendship Roshi had became so sour and resentful that neither of them could stand each other. 
When the time comes for Roshi, Tien and Chaozu to confront Piccolo, the old hermit refuses to let anyone else face him; for all he’s lived through, he wouldn’t survive fighting another doomed battle alongside friends.
Toriyama doesn’t show or explain anything else about Roshi’s past, but we can infer that, at some point in the intervening years before Goku’s story begins, Roshi established his reputation as the Kame Sen’nin, while Shen did the same as the Tsuru Sen’nin. 
In contrast to Shen, who garnered his reputation alongside his brother for taking the technique and skills he learned from Mutaito and twisting them for the purposes of torture, pain and assassination, Roshi must have gone to lengths to heal, at least somewhat, from the trauma and survivor’s guilt and grow stronger. Personally, I think to assuage his guilt, he would’ve traveled and helped people (maybe ‘twas in this time when he met and grappled with Korin) as something of a... hero.
I know it might feel like a stretch to see him that way, and I suspect he doesn’t feel much of a hero himself despite the somewhat flashy façade he puts on as Jackie Chun. But consider this fact: 
There was a time when Roshi could ride Kinto’un.
We don’t see it, nor is it explicitly stated (that I can remember) but both Roshi and Turtle are surprised when he falls through the magic cloud instead of landing on it when he passes Kinto’un on to Goku. So something that happened between his Master’s demise and the start of the story we’re shown that robbed his purity of heart, at least by Kinto’un’s definition. 
Again, was this traumatized survivor narrative what Toriyama intended for Roshi? Probably not.
I’m just saying, all the pieces are there.

😳
lemme scream abt our muses!!
you: -joke abt throwing all ur muses at me-
me: bet?
childe: hakuno can be reaal chaotic too don't get me wrong (canonically likes reckless bond quests! and candy :pleading: she is a sweets luvr..) but i feel like she'd def try to prevent childe from doing anything too crazy sdfghj stop him from commiting atrocities, y'know! i feel like what would be sooo interesting to explore when it comes to them would be... family. hakuno doesn't have one! (she is so lonely actually ^_T) from what i'm reading from his character stories, he's being compared to wolves a lot (tho ngl i get more fox vibes but lmk what u think ta!) and i simply hold up bunnykuno (my hakuno is very bunnygirl coded. nodnod) because i'm basic but it's a neat trope!
gorou: i knowww i mostly talk about hakuno being a catluvr (they are her favs... along with foxes!) but she's a luvr of "fluffy-wuffy" (<- actual words she said) in general! what i'm saying is that she'd find his ears and tails super adorable :pleading: saw that he can speak to dogs too, and i think she would be so hyped about that VDNFBS sparkly-eyed stoic and all! i see that he likes sweets too so they can be sweets buddies methinks! (hakuno shares all her candies with him because she thinks his tail wagging when happy is the cutest thing-)
albedo: NONHUMAN FRENS..... ok but humanity is a really important theme for my hakuno and i think these two would be real interesting for that! really like it too because albedo's more of the logical type while hakuno's more emotional (though both of them really have that :| energy GDJFSH). albedo's line about socializing makes me really want them to have a chat about bonds and connection thooo (<- also a really important theme for my hakuno!) i know he likes desserts too so like- they can also be sweet buddies ! :pleading:
ayaka: not to say frens in all caps after i just did but leT AYAKA HAVE SOME FRIENDS!! one of which being a lovely little moon lady (who also wants friends, so it's perfect) uwu✨️ hakuno may look all elegant and ladylike but like i mentioned in the previous ask for murr-- she can be pretty damn chaotic! nothing too bad, but i think it miight help ayaka have a little more freedom in her life mayhaps? loosen up a little and enjoy the simpler things in life :,) her line about stability "I only wish life could be as leisurely as this a little more often... How greedy of me." is something that i can really imagine hakuno saying as well
aimé: HEEELLO TA OC?? 😳 seeing how he roams teyvat, i think he and hakuno could meet easily! maybe they could even wander together in a kinda adventure buddies kinda dynamic? hakuno isn't the best cook either but him liking charred food is so,,, FDJDHSHD (hakuno vc that's... really sad..) but yeah, after knowing that i think she'd definitely try to make him something, y'know, not charred! (pls drop the lore on what his favorite food is hehe-) if you wanna talk abt him :eyes: :eyes: I AM SUPER HYPED 2 LISTEN OKOK! would love to know more about him <3 LEMME LOVE HIM!
hiyori: hiyori being so bright and cheerful v hakuno's gentle radiance is a real nice contrast of vibes methinks! giving me sunshine and moonlight vibes respectively.... i also literally see him be described as overly blinding sgdjgs but that’s also interesting to me because hakuno is more of the type to fade off into the background (f for moon girl-) — not the only point of difference between them though! i kid you not, in canon hakuno was so broke she made a king cry and she’s really conscious about her spendings so-- on a comedic note, i feel like hakuno would pass out internally whenever she sees hiyori so effortlessly make a pricey purchase DVFKSBFN hopefully i've established hakuno as a fluffy-wuffy animal luvr because she would love to see his pics of bloody mary sm!!! would also love to see her okok <3
nazuna: i see nazuna places a strong value on honesty and hard work-- two very hakunocore traits i must say, i'm sorry!! they're both worrywarts that take care of others more than themselves i think, so i feel like they might nag on each other (/POS) a bit. it's because they care tho! i feel like hakuno would find nazuna so cute actually... and my hakuno is very much onee-san coded so- she’s naturally very caring but she’d extra look after him methinks! i see that nazuna does his best to encourage and support others and :pleading: hakuno def needs that kind of positivity in that life :,) she’s a tough cookie to crack though, i must warn you on that! would also just like to mention how they’re the same height (160cm) and i’m sorry but another warning: hakuno can be a gremlin and i just think she’d put on heels just to tease him about that sdfghgdh    
ritsu: I DIDN’T EXPECT TO SEE SO MANY SIMILARITIES BETWEEN HIM N HAKUNO ACTUALLY... okok but starting off, he likes to tease people to see their reactions and i’m so sorry because again, hakuno is literally so 😐🧍‍♂️ fdsfgdhj her cuter more expressive side shows when you get closer to her!! they’re both very intuitive which is interesting when you take into account their similar traits (i.e. ABANDONMENT ISSUES- yet distance themselves from other in a way ^_T). ritsu gives me cat vibes too so like,, can imagine her lowkey doting on him. if she finds him passed out somewhere, he won't have to worry abt a thing be stronk kuno can carry him to safety ! 💪 they both play the piano too so idk idk i think it’d be neat for them to play something together! also, i’ve mentioned hakuno’s sweet tooth a lot but!! i still have to say it: she’d love to try his sweets okok :pleading:
kaoru: if he tries to flirt with her then good luck kaoru because this girl's denser than a harem protagonist FHDSHD hakuno's 🤨 about flirts though, so i feel like there could be potential for some bit of tension there, but i don't think it'd be anything particularly bad! hakuno would definitely understand and relate to his want for validation and i feel like she'd be able to see more to him than just a "playboy" kind of image :thonk: i see that he gets along with the "eccentric" types anddd hakuno could def fit right in there lmao - she may look all cute and elegant, but she's pretty quirky chaotic! it'd be sweet for them to slowly befriend and open up to each other methinks :pleading:

Anya Nion's bio
Anya is my Dragon Ball Z: Saiyan Saga roleplay Saiyan character. She’s a young girl with short dark brown hair which has the illusion of having layers. Her hair was once a bowl cut during her training sessions 3 years before the beginning of DBZ. Her most important part of her story takes place months before Raditz’s arrival and during the Kakarot game. She was sent to Earth for a spy mission to find Goku before Raditz or the bounty hunter Spike would. She was sent to work with the Turnip Force, which are Saiyans who still believe in the old Saiyan beliefs of obliterating planets, wiping out locals, and selling the planets to buyers all across the galaxy. Although Anya and her Saiyan partner Leek don’t believe in the Saiyan ways of old, they were sent to work with the Turnip Force to get money and to find out the new plans of the Turnip Force. Although Leek hasn’t confirmed that she’s not with the Force, she tries to hide any form of betrayal, unlike Anya, who made it clear once she arrived on planet Earth. Once she arrived, she cut off her tail and bought human clothes to appear more humanlike. Her typical attire includes black shorts and a baggy World Martial Arts Tournament shirt with the number 86 on the back and a red bandanna. She was the first Saiyan to actually meet Goku, but when she did, she didn’t mention or indicate anything related to Saiyans and the plan to make him join Raditz. She became a good friend of Goku’s and whenever her tail grew back, she either cut it secretly or hid it with clothing. Anya is 6 years older than Gohan and trained with King Kai during the Namek Saga. She was taken to the Other World by the Namekian girl Daiyo, who was one of Kami’s assistants and became the next Guardian of the Earth until Kami-Sama gets revived. Daiyo became a good friend of Anya and the 2 became inseparable. Just like Goku, Anya has an extreme fear of needles, even though she is a skilled warrior. The reason why I created Anya was to be a character for my DBZ prequel fanfic in which I don’t know when to start. 
Notes
The number 86 on the back of her shirt is a reference to the release year of Dragon Ball, 1986
Anya Nion’s name is a wordplay on the word onion
Her appearance is based on Gohan, Pan, and a little bit of Omega 
She was born in the Saiyan colony of Akapo.
Anya’s hair is also inspired by Zenitsu Agatsuma’s messy hair and Gohan’s bowl cut. 
Anya wishes she killed the leader of the Turnip Force, Turnip. One of the ways she wishes to kill her is by sparring her, to prove she’s not a low-class Saiyan Warrior. Another way is by turning into a Great Ape or Full Awakening form, which is my own Saiyan transformation in which the transformed Saiyan gains increased strength, red eyes, slit pupils, spiked up dark crimson hair, an obsession for revenge, long and sharp nails, sharp teeth, and improved versions of the Saiyan’s already existing attacks. The way a Saiyan fully awakens is on a red moon or a red Blutz Wave.

Yugi adopting Jaden part three
Start - previous - next
Yugi takes Joey inside. The two head upstairs where Yugi finds Jaden working in his deck. “Jaden can you come here. There’s someone I want you to meet.” Jaden looks up and his whole face lights up.
“You’re Joey Wheeler! You were runner up in Duelist Kingdom and fourth in battle city.” The little boy is so excited as he runs up to Joey.
Joey is thrilled as the little boy inflates his ego. “That’s right but you can call me Uncle Joey! Seeing as your my best friend’s kid.”
Jaden is bouncing with excitement at this point. Talking Joey’s ear off about how cool he is and Joey’s priming like a peacock from all the attention. He looks over Jaden to see the boy’s deck spread out on the ground. “Hey kiddo you want to show me your deck?” Jaden gasps and grabs his hand and drags him over to his deck. Yugi following behind with a soft smile on his face. It’s wonderful to see his best friend and his son getting along so well.
They sit down and Jaden starts telling Joey all about his cards. He talks extensively about his favorite cards the Elemental Heros. They are a new archetype. Currently only five different types of monster cards exist. Jaden had three when Yugi adopted him: Burstinatrix, Avian, and Clayman. Upon arriving at Kame Game shop Grandpa had given Jaden Bubbleman and Sparkman as a welcome home present, instantly endearing himself to the boy. The monsters were low level and besides Sparkman’s 1600 attack and Clayman’s 2000 defense all their stats were pretty low. Yugi had a feeling that Pegasus was testing them out to see if they were popular before adding more support and higher level monsters to the archetype.
But if anyone could understand using low level monsters to support one another, it was Joey. He was ooooing and aaaaing at all the right times and nodding his head along, following Jaden’s excited rambling. He asked questions about strategies and started giving Jaden tips about how to power up and defend his lower level hero’s.
Yugi wished he could let them go for hours but he can’t. He needs to go. “Joey I need to ask you a favor.” Yugi catches both of their attentions easily.
“Sure what is it Yug?” Joey remembered what Yugi had said in their phone call, ‘I need you.’ That’s not the thing you say when you just want to introduce someone to your son.
“I went to see Kaiba today.” Yugi started only to get interrupted by and over excited Jaden.
“Thee Seto Kaiba!” Jaden was so excited. All of Yugi’s friends were so cool.
Yugi smiled warmly at his son’s enthusiasm. “Yes that Kaiba, but he wasn’t there.” Yugi said directing his attention back to Joey.
“So, what did you need him for?” Joey is trying not to feel hurt that Yugi went to Kaiba with a problem before coming to him.
“I-” Yugi paused letting out a big sigh. “Jaden come here, please.” Yugi opened his arms and Jaden quickly moved to hug him and sit in his lap. It was a comfortable position, one they normally sat in after one of Jaden’s nightmares. It made Jaden feel safe, and Yugi knew that. He also just wanted his kid close, considering what he was about to do, it might be a while before he could hold him again.
“I told you about Jaden’s adoption.” Yugi said making eye contact with Joey.
“Yah, ya told me.” Joey nodded his head.
“Well that’s where things start to get weird. I tried to get access to Jaden’s medical file, to see if he was allergic to anything or needed any special care but the file was empty.” Yugi held Jaden close as he felt the little one look up at him. He directed his attention down and smiled reassuringly at the boy.
Joey however had alarm bells going off in his head. This was not right. Something was wrong here, and Yugi knew it. He wasn’t going to say it with Jaden around but both teens knew something had happened. You don’t have an empty medical record for no reason.
“So you went to Kaiba..” Joey prompted Yugi to get them to continue with the conversation. He had a lot of questions he wanted to ask but could see Jaden starting to look uncomfortable and knew now was not the time to ask questions like ‘what do you mean the records were blank?’ Or ‘what other documents were missing?’ Those were questions to ask when little ears weren’t around to hear them.
“To see if he could find the original records.” Yugi drew his attention back to Joey. His hand started to rub circles on Jaden’s back. “But he wasn’t there. Mokuba told me he’s been missing for a month.”
“A month?!” Joey exploded. “Where the f-” Yugi sent Joey a sharp glare, “heck did he go?” Joey asked.
Yugi let out a sigh. Here comes the hard part. “He… he went to duel Atem.” Yugi said closing his eyes and taking a big breath.
“But that’s… that’s crazy!” Joey couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “Atem’s” he paused as he knew this was a hard spot for Yugi, “Atem’s gone. He can’t duel him anymore.”
Yugi let out a low chuckle. “Apparently he can. He built a devise that allows him to travel between dimensions just so he can go duel him.”
“But that’s not a different dimension that’s the-” Joey started to rage when he got cut off by a little voice.
“Who’s Atem?” Jaden asked looking up at Yugi with curious eyes. He could tell the name made Yugi sad, and they said he was gone, but he had to be someone special if Seto Kaiba wanted to duel him and he made Yugi this sad.
Yugi and Joey both looked at Jaden. Yugi expression was both mournful but also so full of love. “Atem was someone very dear to me. We went on many adventures together along with Joey and our other friends, but he...” Yugi pause looking up and blinking away the tears that had formed in his eyes before looking back down at the wide eyed boy in his lap. “He passed away.” How do you explain to someone that Atem was a long dead pharaoh whose spirit shared your body?
“Oh.” Jaden said looking down. “I’m sorry you lost your friend.” He tightened his arms around Yugi giving him a big hug, as Jaden wasn’t sure how else to comfort someone.
Yugi was surprised before his face softened and he returned the tight embrace. What had he done to get such a sweet kid.
“But wait!” Jaden cried pulling back startling both adults. “If he’s dead how is Mr. Kaiba going to duel him?”
Yugi winced at the phrasing but Joey was right there with Jaden. “That’s what I’m asking.”
Yugi let out a huff of breath because he was just as exasperated with Kaiba at this moment. “It’s Kaiba. He built a machine that let him travel to the afterlife to challenge Atem.”
“And he’s not dead?” Joey asked. It was a genuine question.
“No. Mokuba has been monitoring his vitals and he’s still alive. He’s just not coming back. Mokuba’s worried that something’s wrong with the return process.” Yugi explained.
“Or he just hasn’t beat Atem yet and is refusing to leave.” Joey stated. Yugi made eye contact with him as the two nodded. Yep that’s the most likely senario.
“Is.. is this normal for you? Going to different dimensions?” Jaden asked with wide eyes as he looked between the two adults.
Yugi and Joey paused passing a look and a thousand words between each other before Joey shrugged “it’s par for the course when your a world class duelist.” Yugi was about to strangle him.
“Awesome!” Jaden was so excited. Yugi and his friends were like real world super heroes!
Yugi dropped his head to rest his forehead against Jaden’s hair. Offering a silent prayer that his son didn’t get into the same amount of trouble he and his friends got into.
“Anyways. Mokuba asked me to go after him. He has a new way to bring us home, but needs someone to go get Kaiba.” Yugi explained Mokuba’s plan.
“Yug that’s insane.” Joey started to argue. This was a bad idea on so many levels. One what if Mokuba was wrong and Kaiba was dead? What if this killed Yugi? What if it didn’t? Would he see Atem again? Could Yugi handle saying goodbye to Atem again? This was so unfair! How dare Kaiba put his best friend in this position.
“You’re going to the afterlife.” Jaden asked, and they could both hear the slight wobble in his voice. “You’re going to die?”
“No, no, no” Yugi quickly reassured him. Holding his boy close again. “I’m not dying. It’s safe. I wouldn’t go if it wasn’t, I’m not going to leave you. I just need to go help a friend.”
“How do you know it’s safe?” Joey asked watching his best friend comfort his son.
“Joey” Yugi shot him a sharp look as Jaden started to get upset again. But Joey didn’t care.
“No Yug, how do you know it’s safe?” Joey pushed. He wasn’t about to lose his best friend to Kaiba’s arrogance in thinking that he could defy death to get his way. He wasn’t going to let Jaden lose his parent a second time.
“Mokuba has assured me it’s safe.” Yugi reassures both Joey and Jaden, keeping his voice even for Jaden’s sake. “I’ll come back.”
“Well if it’s so safe why don’t I go?” Joey offered. There was no way Yugi was going. Not now. Not when he had Jaden to take care of. Stupid Kaiba, getting himself into impossible scenarios and needing Yugi to bail him out. He probably won’t even say thank you! No, not this time. This time rich boy’s going to have to deal with Joey Wheeler coming to the rescue.
“You can’t.” Yugi stated, calmly taking all the wind out of Joey’s sails. “Mokuba already tried. Only someone with a connection to ancient Egypt can go. Meaning only myself or Kaiba could make the trip and Kaiba’s already there.”
Joey deflates at the news. “That’s just not fair.” He looks up at Yugi, who’s still holding Jaden close, reassuring the little boy. He can see the fear in the four year old’s eyes and he knows there has to be something he can do, or else Yugi won’t have called. He blew out a breath before straightening up and meeting Yugi’s gaze. “Alright, how can I help?” Just because he can’t go with Yugi doesn’t mean he can’t help him.
Yugi seems to relax as soon as Joey asks. “I need you to stay with Jaden. He’s been having awful nightmares and I know they’re tied to the spirit world. I just don’t know why. Jaden doesn’t remember them when he wakes up. It’s one of the many reasons I need to get a hold of his records. But if something is reaching out to him I don’t want to leave him without someone who can protect him. Can you stay with him. I know it’s short notice and I don’t know how long I’ll be gone but-”
“Yug.” Joey cut off his friend’s rambling. “I’ve got him. You don’t have to worry about a thing. There isn’t a spirit in existence that can take down Joey Wheeler! Remember I took on an Egyptian god card.” Yugi remembered, remembered watching Joey get fried by Ra’s power. “I mean it Yug. I’ve got this. I’ll keep Jaden safe while you rescue Kaiba.”
“Are you sure?” It was a big ask after all. Joey had just met Jaden and now he’s being asked to watch the kid for who knows how long. Yugi hated asking this of his friend, but there was no one he trusted more in the world with keeping his son safe than Joey.
“Are you kidding? I get to spend time with my new littlest buddy! We’re going to have a blast. You go be a hero and we’ll be here waiting for you. After all, I got to teach my littlest buddy all my dueling tricks.” Joey was all smiles. He was terrified for his best friend but he also trusted Yugi to know what he was doing. Plus there was no way he was going to put any more doubts in Jaden’s head. His dad was coming home. There were no other options. Besides, he was genuinely excited to hang out with the kid.
“Thank you Joey.” Yugi softened. Joey really was the greatest friend he could ever have.
“No sweat. Now let’s get your deck ready to go, I’ve got a feeling you’ll need it.” Joey stood up. He reach out a hand to help Yugi up. To his surprised Jaden wrapped his arms tight around Yugi forcing Yugi to pick the boy up with him as he stood, holding the boy comfortably on his hip.
Oh wow! His friend really was a dad now!

So, Television was apparently very limited to new york and Maryland in the late twenties. During the 30s Television was only affordable to the very wealthy and had a very limited audience in America
What im saying is that Vox might have been the first tv set alastor actually saw. He probably didnt know what he was, or how big tv had become/taken over radio when they first met.
Not saying that i may be thinking of ideas for a first meeting cooking in the background

I just need to get these ideas outta my head before I lose it (tagging @healterskeltergirl cause she is amazing and normally listens to my rambles in Discord DMs about ideas I hyper fixate on).
ATLA Prince Zuko/OC fic idea with Zuko turning good at the end of season 1...
OC if reborn from our world into ATLA, but isn't "aware" until she's 5 (it don't matter anyways, cause she "wakes up" when she's 5 in the ATLA world). Classified as an "Old Soul" by the Islanders that raise her.
Ends up as a waterbender. Why? Cause 1) why not? And 2) I want her to be a surfer from her first life.
Her first life as a surfer overlaps heavily with her new life that bits and pieces of the Avatar world gets lost, very few things stick. "Water Tribe? North Pole. Princess Yue. Moon... Koi fish? Fire Nation? Kuzon! Dragons dancing. Earth Kingdom? Bumi! Ba Sing Se... Someone with a name rhyming with Tough?"
Knows random shit and says it and no one really understands until later.
Chieftain of Kame Island.
Turtles everywhere... Yes, even turtle ducks. Very turtle friendly.
Magic Island. Only very few people can find it.
Firebenders, earthbenders and waterbenders live in harmony on Kame Island.
Very removed from the war.
OC is originally from Hawaii and a Lilo and Stitch fan.
Ends up Talk no Jutsu-ing Zuko during the North Pole raid.
Zuko actually stumbles upon Kame Island while searching for the Avatar before Kiyoshi island.
He and the crew stay there for a bit, and Zuko is befuddled by their culture and OC saying "Ohana".
Zuko finds out people from the three surviving nations are living in harmony on the island with the OC as their young leader and he's having a minor crisis.
Sees everyone work together to take down a large pirate ship that was dumping oil in Kame Island's waters (pirates did not make it... OC lives by the 3 strikes rule).
They end up saving a Sky Bison calf. It gets named Kiki.
OC travels with Zuko until the North Pole shit.
Ends up convincing Zuko that he's better than Ozai and cause he's still the Crown Prince, the navy is technically his to command when not on Fire Nation soil.
Lots of deprogramming brainwashed soldiers.
Zuko uses the painful memory of his father scarring him to win over his people, because Zuko fucking cares for them and he didn't want needless deaths before he got the scar, and he sure as hell doesn't want more now after watching the siege.
White Lotus spreads the story through the colonies and the poverty stricken areas of the Fire Nation that Prince Zuko is for the people and is Very Tired and wants Peace.
Iroh tells Zuko about Avatar Roku.
At one point Iroh introduces himself as Zuko's uncle to OC and she asks on which side. He says his father's side, and without missing a beat she tells Zuko he must've gotten his looks from his mom cause he has a very delicate look to him that is very attractive.
Zuko doesn't know what to do with this, and just points at his scar. The scar gives him a story and character, she says, but the ponytail is a no.
Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. Zuko ends up being a spy for Team Avatar cause he fakes the betrayal during Ba Sing Se... Azula has no idea.
Zuko @ Ozai during the Solar Eclipse: "Ohana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. You've never been my Ohana, because you've always left me behind! Uncle and the Avatar are my Ohana!"
Zuko learns fire dances and fire eating (maybe sword swallowing) from OC.
OC is chaotic and Toph loves her.

Shining Force 2 All HQ Quotes - JP & ENG
Quotes from the first game here
[put this off for a while since i feel there are less mistranslations, the dialogue in this game is mostly just abridged for ROM space reasons I suppose. Still, there’s still interesting things to see. Unfortunately there’s also even more sexual harassment gags than in the previous game, and hitting most of my favorite characters no less. Yay.
To save those characters a bit, I’ve also translated some stuff from a japanese guide book. That guide book sadly doesn’t have much in terms of character trivia and such, it’s more focused on gameplay stats only, but it does give each character a spicy quote or description for flavor (some are very ambiguous on if they’re first or third person, I’ve noted them as such). And if you stick til the end, maybe you’ll even get some words from our great leader as well? Wouldn’t that be a change of pace.
Most screenshots here are mine but I still had to take a few from RRPG as I didn’t finish my JP playthrough. That’s all the rambling I had, let’s jump to it.]
Sarah
Active: english version is accurate
Tumblr media
"Got it? Don't be reckless! You're our leader, so we lose if you're defeated."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"That Jaha! I won't forgive him! ...He was harassing me so I beat him up real hard."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote/description (ambiguous if it's first or third person):
Tumblr media
"Divine punishment dealt in a flash with Hellblast!"
Chester
Active:
Tumblr media
"*Whinny!* *Snort*... When I imagine the next battle I get kinda pumped up!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"That Jaha, man... He is way too flighty with his crushes! He keeps hitting on everyone!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote/description (ambiguous if it's first or third person):
Tumblr media
"Face the enemies in our way with a powerful charge!"
Jaha
Active:
Tumblr media
"Get ready for anything! I'll be on my guard as well! Huh? Ah, I forgot my helmet."
Originally Jaha says 兜の緒を締めよ, which literally means "fasten the straps of your helmet", but is meant as an expression for "be ready/be on your guard" (kinda like "buckle up" i guess, but that's more related to vehicle so it felt weird to use it). He then follows up on the literal meaning by going to fiddle with his helmet before realizing he just tied a cloth to his head instead. Which is, uh, sure a mistake one can make??? It's pretty nonsense and i didn't find an equivalent expression anyway so I took liberties with it. Do I look like I respect canon Jaha anyway.
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Oww... Is my cheek still red? I just messed around with Sarah a bit and she slapped me real hard!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote/description (ambiguous if it's first or third person):
Tumblr media
"A single swing of this axe can shatter even mithril!"
Kazin
Active:
Tumblr media
"When it comes to battle strategy... Yes, Sir Hawel's teachings will be very useful after all..."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"I'm just... *crack* stretching! My neck gets stiff from using magic, so I have to do some exercises once in a while."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Flames of the demon world, burn my enemies to ashes!"
Slade
Active:
Tumblr media
"I'm skilled at throwing knives! Passing it from one hand to the other helps it pick up speed. Hah!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"After this battle is over... Hehe, I wonder what I should steal next... Ah, you heard that?"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"A great thief like me, caught by the likes of you?"
Kiwi
[As mascot characters often do, Kiwi has a speaking quirk of ending his sentences in kame (turtle). This stuff usually works better in japanese.]
Active:
Tumblr media
"I've learned... how to talk... a bit, but... it's tiring... Fighting.... not as much... Turt..."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Neck goes in... in... I'm training... how to dodge... Neck goes in, in, like a turtle..."
The word he uses for retracting his neck is スッポン, an onomatopoeia for things fitting nicely into a hole/entrance. It can also mean softshell turtle though, and I feel it's an intentional double meaning so i added the "like a turtle" to flow into his ending quirk. Literally the only time I'm happy with how I adapted it.
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"I'll repay you for saving me, turt..."
Peter
Active:
Tumblr media
"We phoenixes are really great when it comes to battles! Even if we fall, we can revive without needing the church."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Hmpf... Hey, Bowie! I'm not brash, right? Seems some people have been saying about me!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote: basically the same thing
Tumblr media
"Hey, hey, I'm not brash, right?"
Matilda
Active:
Tumblr media
"As a centaur who can use a bow, I'm a good match against any enemy!"
Tumblr media
Rest: english version is accurate
Tumblr media
"Say, what's Grans Island like? I was born in the countryside, of course... I really wanna see big cities."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"The red shooting star running through the fields, that's me..."
The japanese word for shooting star, 流星, is made up of the kanji for flow/drift/stream and star. As far as I know any wordplay with "shooting" happening here is purely accidental and I love it.
Gerhalt
Active:
Tumblr media
"If you ask me... Using weapons to fight is dirty! Real fighters should use their bare hands!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Grrrrr, grrrrr... So? Scary, right? I'm trying to be intimidating, but..."
Tumblr media
Guide book description:
Tumblr media
"The gentle werewolf with a great sense of justice."
Luke
Active:
Tumblr media
"The ones who can freely use swords are you and us birdmen! Let us make them ring in the next battle as well!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"It's a relief to come back to headquarters. We might get rusty if we stay in the Caravan all the time..."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote/description (ambiguous if it's first or third person):
Tumblr media
"Can you survive this swooping kill?!"
This one is another reason I decided to bring up the guide book in this post. I find it curious that his active quote is one of the few changed in the english version for no discernible reason and happens to match the guide book quote. Obviously both are referencing his attack animation and thus could be a coincidence, but it’s still curious.
Rick
Active:
Tumblr media
“We centaurs are the main fighters in a battle, so we can’t ever let our guard down.”
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"I knew that I wouldn't be bored if I traveled with you all, but I'm impressed with how the surprises never stop."
Tumblr media
Guide book description:
Tumblr media
"A young centaur brimming with curiosity."
Elric
Active: English version is mostly accurate although he says enemies from the sky are "ours", plural.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Ah, some time to relax! Once you're clean of all the filth from the battlefield you can feel like yourself again!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote/description (ambiguous if it's first or third person):
Tumblr media
"Hit in a single blow! No missing the target!!"
Karna
Active:
Tumblr media
"I've been in adventures before so I'm not scared of any battle! Let's head to the next one already!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"That hobbit! I won't forgive him! He's been doing a bunch of naughty things in the Caravan. Maybe I should teach him a lesson next time!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"If it's healing magic you need, leave it to me."
Eric
Active:
Tumblr media
"Even while lost in time I didn't neglect my training, so I won't be a burden to you."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"With this many centaurs gathered our value doesn't stand out as much, but... I might be the one with the greatest lineage here."
It was cut in the english version, but Eric mentions in the og game he used to be lord of a castle.
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"I shall assist you, with my pride as a knight at stake!"
Tyrin
Active:
Tumblr media
"My magical power is still far from rusty! Let's defeat those devils."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"What are young people thinking nowadays? Am I getting old? I can't follow it..."
Tumblr media
Guide book description:
Tumblr media
"A middle aged wizard who doesn't look like an elf."
Randolf
Active:
Tumblr media
"You sure? That no coward is gonna chicken out when the battle starts? There's a bunch of brats to look after here!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Bravo, bravo, here it comes! It's great that I can even drink here. Drinking and fighting, that's life for me!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Attacks of that level won't put a scratch on me!"
Janet
Active:
Tumblr media
"Fighting is... always dreadful. But I'll give everything I've got to protect the peace of this land."
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Hee hee! Ah, I'm so happy! Being with Elric is all I need to feel blessed."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Aah Elric, you left me behind!"
Rohde
Active:
Tumblr media
"The dwarves' technology is amazing! With this cannon, I can fight as well!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"The Ancients' technology is amazing! There's nothing greater than riding in a vehicle!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"I'm tempted to use this cannon!"
Higins
Active:
Tumblr media
"I've recovered from my illness so I won't lag behind anyone! Let's show these devils our power!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"I heard that those possessed by a devil become unable to die... That could have been my fate back then!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
“Loathsome devils, I’ll stab you with this spear!”
Taya
Active:
Tumblr media
"No matter how strong devils are, they don't compare to the power of nature. Spirits! Lend me your strength!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Goddess Mitula might look young, but she's been like that since the distant past! Just how old is she, exactly?"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Come, o great Atlas! Heed my call!"
Skreech
Active:
Tumblr media

Tumblr media Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"I won't ever forget how you saved me."

Tumblr media

"Ah... It's so comfortable here! Never seen a place where you still get a meal without doing anything!"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"To the east today, to the west tomorrow, I'm a wanderer across battlefields."
Frayja
Active:
Tumblr media
"How terrible are these devils... My wrath is the wrath of the gods, and I'll fight with their power!"
The word Frayja uses for power here, 法力, seems to be about powers attributed to buddhist priests. Another example of the religious term salad that makes up this series.
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Hellblast! It, it feels great. Though we who serve the gods shouldn't indulge in violence..."
Tumblr media
He does not learn blast spells in game. This is false advertising.
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Gods! Please grant my prayers!"
Gyan
Active: english version is mostly accurate, though he's not as forceful, just asking to be put in the front.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Traveling has been a hobby of mine for a long time. Look at the souvenirs I got for my family! This one's for my wife, and this one is for my son!"

Shout out to my phone for constantly suggesting the crying emoji through this one.
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Gathering strength from every inch of my body... Haah!"
Zynk
Active:
Tumblr media
"The conflict against the devils... Comes from those ancient times. We must end it!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"*Click* *clack* *click*... You look puzzled. I'm taking apart my body to oil it. *pop*"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"I won’t be called a tin soldier!"
Claude
Active: english version is accurate, though i'd say duty instead of destiny, but it's a minor nitpick. Also it omits Claude's tick of saying "oon"/"olon" all the time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"No one comes near me inside the Caravan, they say they hate getting covered in dirt, oon."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Olon! Forgive the power of magic!"
Chaz
Active:
Tumblr media
“I usually seem gentle but, I’m thrilled when in battle. Perhaps it is in my nature to like conflict?”
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Everyone here... They say I have the airs of a noble and shy away from me. *sobs*"
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"Was it that one...? No, no, that's not it."
Lemon
Active:
Tumblr media
"Like Peter, I cannot die, so you needn't worry no matter how harsh the battle!"
Tumblr media
Rest:
Tumblr media
"Could you take my hand for a moment? So, how it is? Cold, isn't it? But despite that I'm still alive..."
Tumblr media
Guide book quote:
Tumblr media
"My king... I believe in you."
Bowie
Guide book description:
Tumblr media
"A hero who achieved balance between offense and defense."
...and more!
Tumblr media
sadly nothing in this guide book compares to the beauty that is Max's diary, but there is a small part with Bowie commenting on things as they return to New Granseal. It's largely just the HQ interactions you've read above, but hey! More words than you've ever got from Bowie before! Enjoy.
"Phew, there really is no place like home to relax, am I right? We gotta rest a lot to prepare for our next journey. Everyone worked hard to rebuild this town to the point you can hardly recognize it from before, so we have to do our best too, we'll definitely bring peace back to the world!
We usually don't have much time to just chat, and there's new people here as well, so I've been spending time with everyone else at headquarters. Unlike in the Caravan, there's plenty of space here, so they're relaxing and making themselves at home.
Those in the active party are standing by with an air of 'bring it on, any time!' They've got a lot of fighting spirit. As for those who've been staying in the Caravan, they're having tea, lying around in the beds, or training for battle. I think I saw Kiwi practicing how to dodge earlier. By the way, it feels Sir Astral always wants to be in the same table as the girls for some reason...
Speaking of that, seems Jaha's been hitting on the girls in the Caravan, and they hate it. We're in the middle of a war with the devils, what is he thinking?
Despite that, everyone is fired up for the next battle and that's really reassuring. Let's gather our strength and defeat the devils together!!"

Finale rewatch liveblogging!
On the one hand, Hop is CLEARLY hurt in multiple places. On the other, he deserves to be [redacted]
ARGYLE BADASSERY! I love that even the first time around, I knew exactly what he was thinking and then I thought, “SEE! Without Argyle, they couldn’t have gotten this far!” I mean obviously with the van, but this resource too! They’ve had other people freak out in the beginning- THEY freaked out in the beginning!!! And they need to stop taking Argyle for granted!!!! Also Argyle being smart AF and knowing that Jane needs fuel for her to fight!? Amazing incredible showstopping-! And for providing some lightheartedness that Jane BADLY NEEDS to help give her a break from the awful, awful way she’s been treated for so long- pretty much her entire life, really.
The most believable moment in this entire series is a child getting a lego stuck up his nose and his caretaker being both confused and panicked about how it got up there and how to take it out.And then using tweezers to get it out, which is considered surgery. Evidence: my sister got a tiny jingle bell stuck up her nose when she was 4, and they had to call my mom (who was teaching another grade just down the hallway) to get the jingle bell out because my sister’s teacher was not legally allowed to do it.
JONATHAN REAFFIRMING THAT HE LOVES WILL AND THAT HE’S GONNA LOVE WILL NO MATTER WHAT!!!! THAT HE IS A SAFE PERSON FOR WILL TO CONFIDE TO!!!!! I LOVE HIM I LOVE THEM THEIR FAMILY IS SO GOOD!!!!!!
Jane’s face when Jonathan says “It’s time” 😭😭😭
Derailing all of this emotion to day that Jane’s socks are so cute!!!! Lavender knit with little cats[?]!!! Oh my god I WANT THEM!! Her undershirt is super cute too!
I love how everyone kneels on the floor to be at Jane’s level when she goes into the sensory tank.
The way Jane tells Max that she’s going to help her and to hold on!!! 😭
Confession: The first time I watched this,  I hadn’t seen the previous seasons since those had aired. I had COMPLETELY forgotten that Max was in s2 AT ALL XD But they were so little in the flashbacks!!! They’re all so frickin’ cute! It’s wild to have watched these kids grow up on screen. I don’t follow most of their real life stuff- that’s not my business. I always send my well-wishes to child stars because I have heard the horrors so many of them grow up with and encounter when they’re no longer little and cute.
I still don’t understand the significance of the skateboarding scene??? but I’m curious if they’ll bring it up again in s5.
I’ve skipped most of Eddie’s scenes simply because he never meets Jane (horrible, he should have met Jane and especially Will!!!!) but I had to watch the guitar scene bc it is EPIC and I love Eddie and Eddie’s skills being recognized!!! also him being happy for once 😭
Completely unrelated to all of this, but I’ve had The Neverending Story song stuck in my head since I started my rewatch. It may end up on my top Spotify playlist, so what? XD
JANE’S GONNA SAVE HER GIRLFRIEND BEST FRIEND!!!
THE WAY MAX IS TENDER AND COMPLETELY CONFUSED AT THE SAME TIME!!! ajslkfjaf Whether you ship them or not, Max and Jane are a TOP TIER dynamic!!! I love Max pinching Jane’s cheek and Jane look at her like ??? And then the way Jane takes Max’s hand and holds it??? don’t look at me I’m touch starved and my partner lives over 2,250 miles away
“I piggybacked from a pizza dough freezer” ajsdfjadsf SHE SAYS IT SO EARNESTLY AND IT LEAVES MAX EVEN MORE CONFUSED ajlskdfjafs truly top tier comedy this season (yes, I am easily entertained, but I also love the trope of one person being sincere/serious and everyone else is like ????)
“If you touch her again, I will kill you again.” FUUUUUCK I love when Jane is menacing and protective!!! Truly, younger me would have wanted to BE Jane or else had a crush on Jane and not realized it for another 10 years
Vecna: *speaks for two seconds* Me: shut UP!!! I cannot tolerate arrogant men. I feel like I’ve made this very clear. even if I haven’t talked about one of them, they are included in this statement. Dustin, however, has never done anything wrong in his life, and we know this. The rest of these men can die, meanwhile I would die for Dustin. (I do not hate men. I hate arrogant assholes. I know Angela is a teenager but she’s still included in the major assholes territory.)
Max, dear, I love you so SO much but screaming before you attack kind of ruins the entire “by surprise” strategy.
I’m sorry bitch, you’re telling me that an EIGHT YEAR OLD made you into a monster??? STFU!!! I mean I know it’s to tear her resistance down and make her suffer, but GET OVER YOURSELF!!!
I believe that “He was the monster” and “He was just a man, a mediocre man who sought greatness in others” can and SHOULD coexist
Jane having to watch Vecna torture Max? 😭😭😭 And MAX DOESN’T DESERVE THIS!!!!
Will, YOU are the heart!!!
“My life started that day I found you in the woods” You mean when you were screaming for Will and desperate to find him??? Meanwhile Will’s over hear like “What am I, chopped liver? You’re even using my speech!” Like everyone else has said, I miss s1-2 Mike 💔I
 know it would have been noisy but!!! I would have loved if Will and Jonathan had a chance to encourage her too
GO LUCAS GOOOOOOO!!!!!
Seeing Max’s body snap like that- no bueno
I know that people make fun of her yelling but I think that Jane deserves it!!! I wish I could scream that much!
I didn’t actually see Hopper’s fights against the demogorgon last time around because even tho I love the characters, that plot line mostly bored me? And I skipped most of it this time around, but I HAD to see his final fight because apparently he chopped that creature’s head off??? And I never knew??? (it was completely worth watching!)
Jane and Lucas grieving over Max together 😭😭😭
“No. You’re not going.” Restarting Max’s art was very cool and badass of her
Okay so I remember the time skip being two MONTHS later fjakajdka Two days later makes waaaayyyyy more sense! But god, everyone’s faces when they go back to Hawkins 😭😭😭 
“The news. Indistinguishable from the tabloids.” The only thing that Ted has ever said that I agree with
Erica being with Lucas in Max’s hospital room 😭😭😭 The double hug of Lucas, Will, and Mike is so SO GOOD! My soul needed that
By the way that Will and Mike look at Jane, I’m assuming she never told them about how she restarted Max’s heart.
Jane not finding anything in Max’s mind breaks my heart!!!! 😭😭😭
I can’t believe we saw a neurodivergent wlw interaction with best buddie Steve watching fondly
Cleaning up Hopper’s cabin 😭
Okay so they DO know some of what’s happened to Jane because Mike sounds like he’s talked to Jane before about what’s happened with Brenner
OH MY GOD I MISSED THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE BOTTLE THE FIRST TIME!!!! From her and Max spinning the bottle for Jane to spy on people! 😭
HOPPER AND JANE REUNION!!!!! “I kept the door open… three inches because I never stopped believing!!!” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I want to shake whoever keeps writing in fat jokes about Hopper because that’s attacking David Harbour too!!!
Jane and Hopper joking about each other’s hair! Joyce and Jane hug!!!! The hair patting! The joke about the Brittanica conference’ XD
The lady government agent is good people. I liked her from nearly the beginning
I want Will to be happy for one goddamn day PLEASE!!!
Joyce and Hopper holding hands!!! 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺💖💖💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💕
I love these characters and if they aren’t happy by the end of s5, I will shake the writers hard enough to give them whiplash 
I am so glad that I made this into a separate post because having eps 8 and 9 together would be SO LONG!!! This is long af as it is!!! Thanks for reading it, whoever chose to! Or whoever was listening to me ramble in our IMs XD

Gonna copy paste a small ramble about lits donnie i made a month ago on discord and add a few things on top of that cause it's something i think about a lot
donnie never really had a name that actually felt like one until, like, around the end of the farmhouse arc cause that's when he started going by donatello
buki felt more like a reminder of what was expected of him than a name and kame (what pretty much everyone called him before shredder dubbed him buki) was just a statement, like yeah, he's a turtle, who would've guessed
he was never really attached to either names, to the point where you could refer to him as pretty much anything and he would still answer, and because of that it did take him a while to actually grow into the name donatello cause he just, wasn't used to having a name that actually felt like one
he most likely had more than one identity crisis because of that
to karai, he was always kame even after shredder decided his name was buki, and to shredder as well as the rest of the foot, he was buki, but like i said earlier, neither felt like him, they felt like labels he was supposed to accept cause it was what was expected of him and not because they actually fit, and there was nothing more that he wanted than to have a name that fits him, which is partly why he was so desperate for recognition
