👀 Thank you!

torpid cloak
#

Really quick

#

I have no idea what any of those hashtags mean so I slept it off in hopes I would know in the morning. It does not work

Claire so smart

torpid cloak
#

Hush

wooden beacon
#

What I'm complimenting you EraBrow

torpid cloak
#

You may take me for a jet lagged fool

#

But I am no fool

wooden beacon
#

Whatever helps you sleep, sweetie

torpid cloak
#

whatever honey

wooden beacon
#

Okay darling

violet orchid
#

hopefully the jet lag wasn't too bad

I remember not being able to sleep until my vacation was over due to not adjusting to the time zones in Greece

Based off my experience #1077434433554088056 message movie being filmed in the hotel Kai’s staying at. Accidentally gets a role because he stands out too much.

TLDR: in which Kai becomes an actor by accident. The crew manage to go a whole hour recording and bossing him around before anyone realizes. Chaos ensues. XClueless

#

X is also there, because he’d have actor friends

torpid cloak
#

Adding onto this the ONLY reason Kai doesn’t recognize him. Is because he’s wearing different glasses

#

Introducing my new head canon

#

Kai sucks at recognizing people

#

I’m talking ash Ketchum levels

wooden beacon
#

cookinnnn

#

he says it's cuz he never looks at people too closely

#

bro just has face blindness

torpid cloak
#

He’s just.. like me

#

Think he would recognize some frequent fans though

wooden beacon
#

it's always due to their hairstlyles-

torpid cloak
#

So a lot of his fans wear very similar things- exactly

wooden beacon
#

and other cues :>>

torpid cloak

#

face blindness Kai hc integrated

torpid cloak
#

Bro wakes up and sees X without his glasses or pomp and era without her Hoodie, and he’s just like
“what are you doing in my house”

#

X with his hair down is just. Kai doesn’t know that man

#

Oh- speaking of Kai and X.. my fic

wooden beacon

#

I need some convincing
Why is Kai likeable?

#

How do I enjoy Kai, of all people?

waxen cloak
#

I find him more compelling than some of the other characters because he's a good mix of a basic character type deconstruction and also more relatable than some of the more outlandish characters in the roster bc he has more "realistic" problems than let's say, Juno

#

Like yeah he seems p basic on the surface but he acts as a foil to Juliette, who is by all accounts the "main" character in-story. Like they both have the ambition and drive but she is an up and coming athlete while he's a seasoned pro. She may be more humble and energetic but it's insinuated that Kai's love for the game is real but he lost his passion after being top of the game for so long that there's no challenge any more and its making him sort of languish. There's a level of truth to his egotistical persona but it comes out of an inherent need to be liked because he isn't getting that care from his home life, while Jules is not as accomplished but has the loving family in her grandparent(s?)

#

he also more obviously acts as a foil to Estelle, who is the "talented" player in corestrike. He wasn't the og champ in the roster. She was. He was overly cocky during his debut and he lost, which shattered his worldview. But instead of going into the "this is unacceptable/woe is me" mentality he re-adjusted and got a new team better equipped to take her down and ultimately succeeded. Meanwhile Estelle completely broke apart after her apparent singular loss (which is another compelling character point tbh but not Kai-specific) and she quit corestrike right after which kind of suggests she has the more natural talent but not as intense determination and while Kai is undoubtedly privileged (rich, famous family whose careers are in the same sport) he is also incredibly hardworking at what he does and I think that aspect of his character is usually ignored or reversed. He is not riding on his talent, he does his best to work with it to achieve his dreams and that's very admirable

#

he's also very messy emotionally and doesn't have everything together and for fictional characters sometimes it's really fun to watch LOL like he doesn't know how to meaningfully connect with others and is fairly harsh towards his teammates when they don't do what he wants on the field but it comes from a place of his own high standards on himself and a fear of letting his family down and ultimately being worthless, which sometimes contrasts against his growing need to be challenged and I find it compelling

leave it to Jay to throw a full essay when someone asks "why like Kai"

waxen cloak
#

It's my duty

torpid cloak
#

You can like that he’s a lot like yourself. Although hating him means you probably hate those parts of yourself too

#

Kai is neat. And if we can come to like this guy you can come to like yourself as well

Or something

# waxen cloak he also more obviously acts as a foil to Estelle, who is the "talented" player i...

Point to be added: his abilities, too are so basic compared to, let's say, Juno or even Drek'ar. People like X/Zen are at the peak of human/oni physical prowess, and people like Era or Atlas or even Luna are at the peak of their specific fields.
On the contrary, Kai's abilities literally are "Go fast and shoot balls". The fact that he's able to stay at the top/near it means he isn't depending on his abilities to carry his skill, but rather is depending on his skill to carry his lackluster abilities

#

the lack of crazy abilities you'll def notice if you've ever been in a "I'm about to get stuffed by this Juliette" moment realizing the only way you could have prevented this exchange from happening was if you blocked that pass 5 seconds ago

Cough

#

Wrong channel

#

Anyways

#

Kai wears reading glasses

#

He’s trying to look like his dad

#

you think Kai’s dad notices. And for his birthday gives him along other things, an eyeglass chain that matches with his own

#

honestly, I’m almost certain KaiDad knows Kai looks up to him. He probably enables this behavior

#

and speaking of Kai dad. Kai grandpa probably treated him the same way

#

and that’s why he’s harsh on Kai

#

It’s how he was raised

#

So, he might not tell Kai good job, or that he’s proud. But he does things like that. Where he’s may not care much about Kai outside of corestrike, he still notices things about his son

#

not saying he’s a great dad now. But he’s human

#

———————

#

on this note

#

Because I feel like most HC with Kai and his dad are just (son you disappoint me and you’re never good enough and pshhh.. you suck) and (oh sorry dad ohh.. I’m disappointing my father im a disappointment sob.. ugh. My dad doesn’t care about me)

#

calling myself out

#

I think it would be neat, if Kai and his dad could have moments like that. But also both sit in the living room and read books in silence together, or have passionate discussions about corestrike

#

Kai dad fixing Kai’s coat before he goes off to play corestrike. Kai asking his dad for advice for strategies in corestrike.

#

Kai dad calling Kai downstairs to watch a movie.

#

Kai asking his dad about his past achievements

#

Is it so much to ask, for father son bonding moments..

#

And I don’t wanna erase his Dads character. He’s harsh, and at times hardly acts like a dad. He berates Kai and doesn’t praise him. But these things tend to coexist in most families, where a parent can be harsh and caring at the same time

#

Where he wants Kai to learn, to improve, and become better.

#

but I feel like there can be a balance between the harshness of corestrike, and him just being a typical dad

#

I want them to go out on hikes, talking or not talking at all. I want them to take strolls around parks and sit on benches and feed ducks. I want them to go the library together. I want them travel together and visit countries and go sightseeing and take family photos. I want them to go golfing together, watch sports together, play chess, go to museums together.

#

I want their relationship to be nice, except when it comes to corestrike.

#

I want his dad to be harsh, in a way that contrasts these things. So Kai hates that side of him, but understands it. So that he can feel the pain of disappointing him, because he knows his father believes he can be better

#

I want Kai’s efforts to not be only proving his father wrong, but proving to himself he can become more

Unrelated

X is sunshine protector

#

Sunshine is Kai

waxen cloak
#

tbh yeah I love that approach

#

in my own hc it's like corestrike kind of looms over that whole family so the family 'legacy' kind of soured the whole relationship but I like to believe it was good once

#

your take on it would be great though :v;

torpid cloak
#

But that one fic.. that pig guy.. man..

#

I just want Kai and his dad to go fishing.. and talk about normal father son things

Bonus if every time Kai dad says gay he struggles to say it a little, perhaps even tears up like he’s saying Kai’s got a chronic disease

Then at least her leaving after a loss would make more sense, since she’s getting old

And not just a quitter

wooden beacon

Ye xD

Estelle quitting not because she’s a sore loser but because hip problems and Kai is annoying

Which then, makes their rivalry funnier, because it’s just this middle aged lady (early mid 30’s ) throwing hands with a young adult

Also, what would be incredibly funny, is if Kai and the EM still go to university (im assuming X too he’s massive i cant tell if he’s the same age or older as them)
And every day, Estelle pulls up in her car just to make fun of Kai for still going to school

I think it would be one of the things Rasmus realized Estelle stopped doing, and took pride that he was significant to her in such a way that she actively chose not to, so seeing her drink it again is almost like a sign she moved on entirely
