Rei walked into me yesterday evening.
Riona: I'd say 'I'm sorry for elbowing you in the boob,' but you sort of boobed my elbow.
Rei: I did boob your elbow. I'm sorry. Don't worry; this bra has a lot of padding.
Riona: I'm... okay, I can't think of a better way to word this. I'm not afraid to touch your tit, Rei.
One of the best parts of Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance is that Sora, a perpetual optimist who is used to interacting with Disney characters, meets Joshua Kiryu, cynical little shit from The World Ends With You.
Joshua: (goes on for ages about how Sora and Riku are in different versions of the same world, divided by an unknowable distance)
Sora: Don't worry. He's with me, even when it might seem like he's not.
Joshua: Then you two are lucky.
Sora: You and your friend are lucky too, Joshua.
Joshua: (laughs) I appreciate you saying that with conviction, even though you have no idea what you're talking about.
I love Joshua. It's weird to me that I love Joshua so much, given that I hated him when we first met in The World Ends With You, but somehow he ended up winning me over just by being unapologetically awful. Maaaaaybe a candidate for my all-time top ten fictional characters?
At some point I should put together a 'top ten fictional characters' list and make an entry where I just enthuse wildly about everyone on it. Ellie, Yuna, Patrick Jane and Squall Leonhart definitely belong on the list. Who else? This is going to be tricky.
I just thought 'maybe it'd be easier to talk about my favourite character from each of my fandoms' and then thought 'wait, how many fandoms do I actually have?'
Anyway! Joshua! Here's a terrible thought: has anyone ever written fanfiction in which Joshua Kiryu and Kokichi Oma meet? They'd try to piss each other off, fail, try to manipulate each other, fail, and then team up and make life absolutely unbearable for everyone around them.
I think this might need to exist, but I don't think I can write it, unfortunately. I can't really envision Joshua and Kokichi interacting. They're too similar! It's like trying to bring the same pole of two magnets together.
I never finished that World Ends With You fic in which Joshua's following Neku around, but nobody else can see him, so Neku's left going '...am I hallucinating, or is Joshua making himself invisible just to screw with me?' Maybe I should replay the game at some point and see if I can pick it up, because I do like the concept. (Of course I like the concept; it boils down to 'WHAT'S REAL?', which is the theme of half the things I write.)
Wait, I need to stop getting distracted by replaying things! I still haven't finished NieR: Automata!
