random rambling in looking through some old chat logs that I…. apparently saved?? huh
just random kai rambling, but more on past portrayal and. stuff. lightly.
seeing the talk of Kai a few years ago is quite interesting
I really was at a crossroads back then… and reading some of this I’ve realizing, even before I started talking to Aisu I was leaning more…. away from the…. totally antagonistic portrayal
Which…. thinking about it, had been a gradual thing from the start, I just kind of held onto it just a bit since with pre-V3 stuff it seemed….. expected….? Like I had to….? Considering.
It wasn’t until the first Kaitou situation that I totally decided to look more into their other sides and not just the ‘bad’ side
Which, I’m glad for, because in going that direction I actually managed to flesh them out more and get more of their true character through and other such things.
even if that first Kaitou thing is retconned now, I’m still keeping the basic change there— it’s just likely in the new timeline something else probably had Kai realize and try more.
…
which has me wonder what exactly, now….. I guess perhaps Rin talking about her nightmares more openly to them? Maybe? Hmmmmm…….
regardless, current time is essentially a couple or so years after whenever it happened, so.
