USAGI | NOA KAIBA

[noasark]

Name: Usagi
Contact: usagisquared
Timezone: EST
About yourself: HELLO! I'm never 100% sure what to put in these things but! I'm an aspiring teacher (aspiring in the sense of aiming at the local program Aha), who presently subsists on the art of making grocery store salads...I have two very delightful cats hilariously enough, a small black cat and a partial maine coon, which makes the TDM great in hindsight...

I tend to plurk mostly for Game stuff- aside from Diatu here, I am also in Daybreak, and Ryslig! But I also plurk about some IRL things, and OCCASIONALLY...video games I've been playing. A lot of my fandoms are kind of 'hidden' fandoms outside of the YGO franchise, since I tend to only really talk about them if someone mentions them first...

ANYWAY. Noa's first game when I picked up the muse was actually a Really Old magicschool-focused game as well so I'm absolutely thrilled to be here, especially now that I've been running him more confidently for a while! I'm looking forward to playing with you all!

Character: Noa Kaiba
House: Valhudor
About: Noa is an interesting kid in that he's got the intellect of an 18 year old but the mental and physical state of a 12 year old- go figure being a computer for 6 years is just. BAD. For growth.

But it's okay, because now he's a Person again. To explain, Noa technically died when he was 12- his dad wasn't having it though, so he tried uploading him to a military super computer, making a virtual world for his kid to live in.

Etc etc, that dad was Gozaburo and go figure things eventually came to be that Gozaburo seemingly died, Seto took over Kaiba Corp, and Noa sort of looked at all this from a distance and thought it was totally BANANAS.

So he trapped Seto and a bunch of the YGO cast in the virtual world and had people duel (including....a penguin guy actually...) while taking out his anger on his stepbrother before figuring out that Maybe Being Nice is Good through various things mokuba it was mokuba...and also he ended up doing a heroic computer sacrifice while everyone escaped.

And they never spoke of him again....

The point is, he kind of thought he was going to be dead (again)? And now he's really not, so he's simultaneously decided this is Really Awesome and Really Weird.

He's just going to hyperfixate on the Really Awesome and enjoy things like Eating Food, and Reading Physical Books for now though. (Someone let him try coffee he'll hate it it's going to be great)

IN ANY CASE, Noa isn't exactly...malicious so much as just really prone to spite, and for that matter didn't grow in a situation where he interacted with anyone beyond his dad and his tutors- so on the one hand, WOW, SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE! NEW INFORMATION HE HAS NEVER SEEN! (he really likes learning stuff)

On the other how does one INTERACT with people??? it's probably magic

Hopefully being in musical illusions house will help him figure that out. Or at least, be subjected to people Making Him Figure It Out

CR Goals: fambly Aside from obvious cast shenanigans (Noa is more than Slightly nervous for good 'Former Antagonist' reasons), Noa just in generally doesn't entirely...grasp the concept of how FRIENDS work, so it'll be interesting to see how that plays out here. Over all I'm looking forward to working with all the potential that sits in Noa reconnecting with a lot of what makes life...'LIFE', which honestly he didn't super have in his actual life either.

Also: MUSIC THINGS. N E R D THINGS. PENGUIN THINGS he has an Emperor Penguin familiar who is the Emperor of Penguins i love this,

All of these things are important, let's go,

Notes: Noa is 4'8'' but Emperor Penguins can be 4'3'' so when Adelai is in his palanquin he will be TALLER, technically- (But mostly this just makes things amusing because Noa isn't even half a foot taller than his familiar Ah-ha-Haaaaaa excellent)

oh and uh also i guess this is my moment to throw penguin triva everywhere i'm sorry

Anything Else?:


IT'S TIME FOR... SC-SC-SC- SCHOOL!

[darkenedmoon]

Fellow former antagonist greetings!

Man that dying and coming back is just a kick in the pants, isn't it?

Luckily for Noa Yotsuyu likes children and his apparent age will work in his favor. I also have a dorky rock boy and if she gets in, Noa met Isabel in the TDM! :)

[noasark]

It's time to test the limits....of child leniency

but also I had a blast with Isabel's thread so I'm going to be excited about CR with any of your three I suspect

[darkenedmoon]

Yotsuyu here is probably the most serious. The other two...are teenagers. That's probably enough said.

[blue_ice]

You know I didn't realize how weird it is that Noa and Seto look alike despite not being biologically related at all until this very moment.

Anyway, welcome! I am very excited to see all the fun Noa and his penguin get up to, and Seto's still awkward as hell about all of this, but he's learning how to people too, even though his challenges are different. They'll figure this out.

[noasark]

Honestly I very often wonder if Anime-verse Gozaburo adopted Seto partly because of that resemblance and Boy what a barrel of worms that would be-

(in his other game we had a Seto Rosenkreuz for a hot minute and Noa eventually came to the conclusion that somehow, someway, that man's genes were why they looked so similar despite having Numerous degrees of separation pfffftttt)

Nothing says family like awkwardly figuring out how to handle the other's existence, but hey, they're smart. Figuring it out is....Probably going to happen...

[blue_ice]

That's even creepier...and makes so much sense. Guh. They have a lot to unpack there.

But yes! Definitely looking forward to shenanigans.

Re: USAGI | NOA KAIBA

[nobodys_puppet]

YAY!!!!!!!!!! WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Sorry in advance form my three. They all probably make Noa look good at being social and well adjusted by comparison.

[noasark]

Wheeze idk I think Sho and V at least will have him beat on 'Social' ahahah

BUT YES!! After that Xion thread I'm pretty excited to see how re-meeting goes...

[nobodys_puppet]

V maybe. Sho.... decided the way to stop an old man from being annoying with his gong was to kill him. He's also threatened to kill multiple students already.

And yes, he and Xion are going to be all kinds of fun in game.

[noasark]

ok maybe not sho then

But yesssss this is going to be great

muffled 'what makes a heart' nonsense on the horizion,

[king_of_egypt]

Welcome to the game Usagi! I'm excited to see another member of the ygo cast, also I'm super curious as to what other " Really Old magicschool-focused game"you were referring to. I mean there have been a ton of magical school games I'm sure, but I have been in a few so..... YES. ALL MY CURIOUS.

[noasark]

I HONESTLY CAN'T COMPLETELY RECALL...It might have been Magicdrafted??? (I know I had SOMEONE there...)

Anyway! I'm pretty excited myself! It was already great to see a Seto, but to see an Atem (and a Yugi for that matter) as well was pretty much what cemented my decision to work on the app haha!

[king_of_egypt]

It must have been a while back like you said then. I'm not familiar with a magicdrafted. I was in Squarewarts (a Hp/FF based magical school).

I hope it'll be a lot of fun for you here with all the family and cast shenanigans! Atem might not know how to take you at first Noa, for reasons, but I think it'll work out alright!

[noasark]

Oh man HP/FF though? Now I WISH it was Squarewarts...

Noa, quietly: oh no it's the one who gave me a wild headache when i tried to possess him,,,

Re: USAGI | NOA KAIBA

[hotheadwarmheart]

Greetings from yet another former antagonist who died (sorta) and came back! Also the only one currently in game with hair crazy enough to rival Yami and Yugi's. :3

I expect it'll be interesting to see how these two interacting plays out. :3

[noasark]

Oh EXCELLENT, Hello Lea -!

It's definitely going to be interesting, yeah- I'm looking forward to so much of this though oh yessss

[hotheadwarmheart]

Same here! It'll be especially interesting to see how things play out in relation to any interaction he has with Xion. :3

Also, mind if I add you on plurk? :3

[noasark]

Not at all! Add away!

[outofyourshadow]

At this rate, Lena probably will start a club/support group for all former antagonists. There really are a lot of them there.

That said, hello~

[noasark]

It'll be the best club, clearly (also HELLO,)

[thirdpint]

Welcome to the game!!

Sora is absolutely gonna try to teach this guy so much about friendship. SO MUCH.

[noasark]

Oh man YES

FRIENDSHIP HIM SORA- !

[talkyourwayout]

Hey Usagi! I'm Frankie, and I play Louie Duck (DuckTales '17) and Kamala Khan (Marvel Comics) in Diatu. Also, basically everything in your OOC intro had me giggling. Noa seems like a really entertaining character to build CR with! Kamala's very friendly, whereas Louie's friendly enough, but there's... Often a catch! He's a schemer. But he's also accustomed to making friends with people who don't really know how to social, so that might be a point in his favor.

Mind if I add you on Plurk?

[noasark]

Oh rad, Kamala! (AND MORE DUCKS!!)

I'm glad to have entertained, it was my hope after all...

Add away! you'd be 169- Nice
