Well, it really threw Zero for a loop when Citrine refused to use him as a shield in the Lion/Sea Witch game because even though Zero knows Drift doesn't like him hurting himself, he saw protecting the teams as an entirely different scenario. So Zero was both trapped by the inability to protect Citrine and the realization that Drift was going to take on more pain for HIS sake. Which really really messed him up because THAT'S NOT HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE. But... he also is team-topped so if that's how Drift wants it, that's what he has to accept. Even if he's totally fine with dying for a good cause.

And then Drift got hurt in Riful's heart and is sort of crushed him because again he couldn't protect him. So he felt really GUILTY about the cake but took it anyway because clearly Drift put a lot of work into it and it meant a lot to him. But yeah, Zero is like I DESERVE NO CAKE. Zero has problems...

Drift's hints that he's distressed also trouble Zero because Drift clearly cares about him but won't let Zero ever worry about him. :( Zero wants to help the bunneh.

Reverse~!

idk Drift really likes Zero '-' BOTTOM LINE. And he gets an extra-special place in his heart since they are ~*~official friends~*~. But this means he's become somewhat possessive and pushy of Zero! He appreciates what Zero does for him and how seriously he takes his duty as a knight (i... if not for Zero and, like, Mikage, Drift would have negative faith in knights lolol)! But Zero as a person can be dumb and he is His Friend which means Drift sees himself as having the right to do whatever he can to make Zero happy and keep him safe :E Under no circumstances does he believe allowing a friend to be hurt is acceptable, so Zero may hate it!!1 but he will just have to Deal because Drift thinks it's the best for him.


IN GENERAL THOUGH, LIKE ... he really likes Zero and trusts him because Zero has always tried to look out for him and listen to him (at least in Drift's earlier days, when he was freer with his words). But he's also really bad at asking for help a... and he doesn't know how Zero will take like, SUDDEN BOMBARDMENT OF ISSUES! and he doesn't want to scare him off or something :x He does remember Zero making him promise that he'd talk to him if something was up, which is a gesture Drift does appreciate! Even if he might not take it up on his own.

How would Zero feel if he knew Ace and Drift have started antagonizing each other?

WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LET ME BE MASOCHISTIC, DRIFT? It's who I am!

Lol, there would be SCOLDINGS. See, as nice as "Thorn" is, he still has Zero's steadfast belief that he can make people do what he says when he needs to. So there would be scoldings on both sides. Would he take it seriously? Probably not. He would just figure you're having issues.

So how's it going with Hatter?

I'M THE ONLY ONE ALLOWED TO BE MASOCHISTIC HERE jeez

... ISH? Seeing Hatter just kind of reminds Drift to loathe himself more, as with anything Wonderland-related. It might not be so bad if Hatter were also fictional! But he distinctly remembers that not being the case, so. This is sort of exacerbated by the fact that he doesn't yet remember anyone who might also be fictional, and while he knows that there might just be someone he hasn't remembered yet, he's not holding his breath. Hatter (and Ace, for similar reasons) is someone he vents these general frustrations on because he's there and an easy target \:D/

THE ENTIRETY AATHER IS ABOUT TO GET DEVOURED BY DARKNESS. Resistance has proven futile! Zero can only choose to save seven people. Who does he choose and why? Or does he short-circuit?

DDD: No, honestly, Zero would short-circuit because he is too much of a team-bitch for words. ;;

But... HYPOTHETICALLY: Ace, Jaina, Drift, Inara, Naruto, Kite and Shuri.

Reverse!

Natsume, Kite, Zero, Spitfire, Oz, Riful, Percy. THOSE ARE HIS SEVEN DECLARED FRIENDS so there is really no question. He would wish he could save a few more, but beggars can't be choosers.

Has any vampire stuff caused problems for Zero in Aather, other than his own personal issues over it?

From: [personal profile] hunting
Wellll, there have been games where he forbid teams from cutting themselves because it would make him want to eat them. :x And there was the time where he chomped Ace in the middle of their making out and hated himself for a while after that. And he does actively get sick in too much sunlight; hence why he uses his kitty transformation. He also gets sick if he hasn't drank blood in a while because he's used to it now and the pills aren't strong enough. They're really not strong enough in canon either because something's been fucking with them. So a few problems I guess. Then of course, there was his issue with how to deal with Mitchell after Mitchell killed Mal...

Tell me more about Drift's issues with being fictional.

toolate: (fall apart without me)
From: [personal profile] toolate
Gosh where do I start. FROM PRETTY EARLY ON IN AATHER HE'S FELT DIFFERENT. Stuff like being the only person with rabbit ears, or not understanding ~team spirit~, or not understanding things like "fun" made him feel sort of left out! He felt like he had to work a lot to compensate for it somehow, and it frustrated him that he just wasn't on the same level as everyone else. And he sort of started feeling less than people! This wasn't so bad for awhile, and it was ameliorated by the fact that he started to get along with others.

Then they worsened once he started to get his memories about Alice, which came hand-in-hand with his fictional issues. His failures in Aather were suddenly magnified, even though he wanted to hold off of buying directly into his old life. He started indulging in self-deprecation more and getting more anxious! But, at the same time, he felt his feelings had validity! He had just as many rights as anyone else and he wanted to be happy and do this and that and be Drift!

Only actually lol no because guess what, his feelings don't have validity if he isn't even real! He doesn't... know what to do with himself, it kind of scares him? Because he's been suspecting it for awhile and having it almost entirely confirmed is just the worst thing. He feels utterly alone -- because there is no one else, that he knows of, who is also fictional in Aather right now -- and he doesn't know who to talk to because. no one understands. He doesn't want to hear "You're just as real as any of us!" because that sounds privileged to him. Of course they can say that! They don't know what it's like to not be real! They don't understand his feelings! But it's not like they're wrong not to understand his feelings because his feelings aren't real and don't mean anything and he should just disappear \o/ SUDDENLY EVERYONE EXCEPT HIM IS RIGHT because they are actual people. Like would you ask a piece of paper how it feels? Really??

It scares and depresses him because that means everything he's done up until now is pointless, and he feels like a reject because he has a memory specifically stating he should have never developed a consciousness in the first place. HE IS A FAILURE AT BEING WORDS ON A PAGE how much lower can you even go. He sees his "existence," if one can call it that, is meaningless and anything he tries to do other than to compensate for whatever he was written for is just running away (something he resolved not to do, hence why he actually read Alice in Wonderland). HE DOESN'T KNOW WHO TO BLAME so he just blames himself. He wishes he had never been written so he would never had to experience anything, and he wishes he had never gotten his memories back so he could have lived in ignorance (but not bliss, because he sees himself as ruining his own chances even with amnesia, that is how much he sucks!!).

A small part of him still wants to believe himself to be real -- which is why it hurts him so much; he's still struggling. He wants to have friends, and have fun, and do this, and do that, and believe he's just as worthy as anyone else! He wants it so bad but he doesn't want to believe in something that isn't happening. He's somewhat indignant at being something -- as he says in the drama cd -- that can be changed and tossed and written to be played with at one's leisure, for fun; but at the same time he wonders if that's really all he's good for. His memories provide Alice someone easy to focus his thoughts on, so that's what he's doing -- he's going back and forth on what he wants to think, but right now he's settled on self-deprecation.

Another thing is that he's kind of terrified of what this will do. Like -- he tried to hide it until his sort of breakdown after Odile's game, but he is genuinely terrified of how people will take it, and if they'll just confirm his fears that he's less than them, or that they'll give him pretty, privileged words (which, to him, indicates a lack of honest caring about him). Like, in particular, he's utterly terrified of the word getting out to Natsume. NATSUME HAS ISSUES WITH SEEING THINGS THAT AREN'T REAL so he is so certain that if Natsume ever found out he'd be not only betraying his friend in the worst way, he would also lose his first and closest friend. And then he will truly be all alone.

He just really wants to disappear right now. Barring that, he might need a good cry, but he doesn't actually know how to cry in Aather or in canon.

Did Zero ever wonder what happened with the book Drift quested for . . .

Somewhat. But mostly because Drift was so tense about it when he asked Zero if he knew it. :x Also, I'm sorry but "He fails at being words on a page" made me lol a little. >> Poor terrible life for bunny. :(

Whose booking would absolutely destroy Drift?

I AM NOT ENTIRELY SURE I think he would be pretty crushed if Natsume or Kite were booked, since they're currently the two closest people to him. If all his friends were booked, or the entirety of Citrine were booked (all at once in both cases), that would .... that would probably make him a wreck. IF HE LOSES SOMETHING he tends to cling to what he has while mourning what's lost! If he loses everything he. doesn't deal so well.

Someone Zero really wants to see from his world and someone he really doesn't?

HE REALLY WANTS TO SEE MITSUKI 8( He would literally kill to see him here. He knows he shouldn't wish for his friends to show up in a sucky place but w/e w/e issues gimme my friends :B He's kind of terrified of Alice/Mary Ann showing up, or any Alice candidate honestly, because that would mean he'd have to deal with all his canon stuff in Aather which he is not confident he can do.

ryner vs zero battoru who would win
