So… about that audio…

i think we need to talk about this unit thematically

i know it's "haha april fool's day, they're stuck in a futuristic city and rui wants to study the silly sekai aliens" but like... hear me out

im pretty sure these 4 were picked because they all have one major thing in common— the fact that they were failed by society.

kaito v1 was a commercial failure on release, to the point where other vocal synth companies looked at his low sales and consequently made less male vocal synths— leading to the large gender gap in vocal synths that we still have today (although its less than what it was ~5 yrs ago imo). i think clpl actually considered this when picking kaito for this unit solely because it's vbs kaito— the kaito that most strongly resembles old fanon kaito in how he can easily be described as a carefree dumbass that loves icecream.

rui was ostracized his whole life for being "dangerous" with his shows by his classmates, as well as being isolated because of how he was "different" from the other kids (implied neurodivergent). this lead to rui struggling with depression as well as a myriad of other issues (such as his abandonment issues) later on.

akito was ALSO ostracized for being too serious about his passions and having a "bad attitude", which lead to him developing an inferiority complex as well as leading to him essentially being overly polite to strangers because of his past trauma where he was publicly humiliated, had his reputation ruined, and brought disgrace to a place he loved just for accidentally spilling water on someone 💀 (find a way out is so real) ((also i choose to see akito as neurodivergent mainly because of how his behavior is framed idk i feel like him being overly polite is him masking, esp. when u compare his behavior between different people.. recent example: how he acts around rui vs how he acts around mafuyu for example)) (((also, he's rui's narrative foil, so it just makes a lot of sense???)))

and then there's haruka, who was so close to being the "perfect" idol but couldn't because of her trauma from hurting mai— she was unable to meet the expectations of being an idol under the pressure of probably not only her managers but also the large fanbase she always wanted to give hope to

subscribing to a fic isn’t enough I need the author to blast a bat signal into the night sky whenever they update

My headcanon for Tim Drake is that he has very odd and highly Specific rivalries with every single one of his own personal Rogues gallery.

Anytime Moneyspider crawls out of the coding to play, Red Robin is on it before it’s even a blip on the Batcomputer. He shucks all his current cases off on other family members and unearths this fucking ancient computer, holes up in the basement of the Nest, and locks himself up so tight only world ending shenanigans and Cass can bother him. (Cass always does, primarily because watching Tim’s expressions is like watching tellanovella: unnecessarily dramatic and amusing, and also to poke food at him and knock him out after 72 hours.) For his part, Lonnie sees Tim coming and immediately switches from high maintenance servers to shitty ones. Between the counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-counter-hacking that occurs, Tim and Lonnie also play chess on the oldest server possible, even though Lonnie says it’s a stupid game (he’s the one who jokingly suggested it years ago) and Tim hates it (he learned how to play just to beat Lonnie). This entire process is how they live— it was started when they were both fourteen and Lonnie only had access to shitty tech and Tim found out that shitty tech is the only thing that can access shitty tech and they keep up with it because they hate each other. In the end, Red Robin has way more shit to do than clack away at a damn box for weeks, so he goes: ‘oh no🙉 🙊 you killed the terrible rich, white men I hate’ and he’ll dismantle the rest of Lonnie’s plan and they both call it quits. It’s a little like enrichment to the both of them.

With Lady Shiva, it’s a game of sabotage. She charges into Gotham to kill Tim, Tim does his level best to fuck with her surroundings. This, of course, started with the god damned hotel chocolates. If Tim wins, he gets to mock Shiva’s prone body and be all ‘wow, another life debt, Shiva??? Cass must really get her talent from herself’ and add another heart to his little video game lives when it comes to Shiva. If Shiva wins, she only halfway maims him and is all ‘foolish little bird. you never stood a chance against me. the next time you won’t be so lucky’ and Tim has to scribble out one of his hearts. The game will inevitably end when Tim runs out of lives, but both he and Shiva are usually too busy to play their game too often. Joker gas pellets have been stuffed in her shoes, fear gas mixed in her shampoo, paralytic in her favorite hairpin, and there was one really convoluted plan involving a horde of alley cats, one of Gotham’s public school’s meals, and the only Trader Joe’s in all of Gotham that Tim will call his magnum opus to this very day. And those were only the plans that succeeded.

With Ra’s, it’s all. About. The. Property. Damage. I don’t think even Ra’s knows what game they’re playing when they play it, but anytime the League of Assassins pokes into Gotham or any of Red Robin’s allies, Tim is on him like white on rice. He goes to the furthest distance possible to make a complete nuisance of himself until Ra’s is forced to put all of his attention to Tim and then Tim just stops. It doesn’t happen enough for it to become anything more than a probable pattern to Ra’s, but he finds it amusing enough to let it go. Until the next step of his master plan, that is.

The best part is that once any of Tim’s main Rogues have a clear shot at killing him they’re all like ‘…well…’ because this guy is just too damn funny and annoying and entertaining and terrible to kill. All they really want is to completely humiliate this fool, like absolutely decimate him and never let him live it down. And so the cycle continues.
