BTS! ▼ - opinion or value of theirs I disagree with ( one opinion for each Boy )
DARK: he does his best not to share his opinions and avoids conflict, even if something goes against his moral compass. i dont think thats something you should ever do, within reason-- stand up for what you believe is right.
JACE: jace very strongly feels that if you see someone in trouble or in need of help, you have an obligation to help them however you can. and while i think thats a very kind thing to be able to do, i dont think you have an obligation-- your first obligation of help should always be to yourself.
VOLKNER: volkner doesnt really work very hard for things; he used to, but nowadays hes more of the belief that effort and hardwork dont mean much because things will just happen however theyre meant to happen anyway. i... kind of sympathise with that i guess? but i dont think you should completely stop putting in effort. but i know that can be hard.

Shadow Triad #1 & #3
(( so there aren’t actually a lot of npc’s in dark’s story; of the three i’ve talked about so far, i actually made one up specifically for this meme. so instead i thought i could talk about my own interpretations of the other members of the triad! i’ve put it under a read more since i’m technically talking about canon characters. ))
His mother died not long after his birth; he cannot remember her, and carries an old photograph of her at all times.
His father, a wealthy businessman, resented him for the death of his wife, and neglected his son. Eventually this neglect led to various forms of abuse.
Ghetsis found him at the age of six, and offered to take him to his home in Unova.
He was twelve when Ghetsis brought Liam back to the castle. He was by his bedside almost constantly while he recovered.
Emotionally stunted; distrusting of almost anyone that isn’t Ghetsis. He finds it difficult to interact with people on a social level, and mostly keeps to himself unless contact with others is absolutely necessary.
He sees N as a traitor, and still has not forgiven him for abandoning Plasma.
Kuro did not willingly leave Plasma; Ghetsis had ordered the Triad not to look for him, and his brothers had decided to leave (abandoned him, in his eyes), there was simply no reason for him to remain in Icirrus City.
He currently wanders Kanto, though he was in Alola for a short time.
Born into a large and extremely impoverished family. He was the second oldest of seven children.
A bright child, he understood from a young age that his family were unable to properly provide for him because of its size.
He was nine years old when he left home– a choice he made of his own accord. He believed his siblings would be better taken care of if his parents didn’t have to worry about him.
Ghetsis found him at age ten, and asked him if he would like to return to his home in Unova with him. He was immediately suspicious of the man, but decided to use him as a means of survival as long as he needed to.
He regularly acts as the voice of reason when Kuro and Dark butt heads, which is surprisingly often.
After Ghetsis goes back into hiding and Dark disappears, he tries to convince Kuro that they should leave too, now that there is no reason for them to stay. He is unable to convince him, and reluctantly leaves by himself.
While he is thankful that he met Ghetsis when he did, he feels no sense of obligation to the man, unlike his adopted brothers. If anything he would say that he has “paid his dues” to Ghetsis by being a part of Plasma for as long as he did.
The way to his heart is through his stomach. Coming from such an impoverished background where he regularly spent days going hungry, he tends to eat quite ravenously.

Kazuma Fujimoto
Alias: K, KeiAge: 25Gender: Cis maleStar Sign: LibraHometown: Ecruteak City, JohtoResidence: Violet City, JohtoOccupation: (Ex) Plasma Grunt, Pokémon TrainerHair: Blue-BlackEyes: GreyHeight: 5′11Personality: Curious; compassionate; ambivalent
Like many others, he fell for Ghetsis’s propaganda and came to Unova in order to join Team Plasma.
Often went on missions with Dark / the Shadow Triad. He showed an interest in Dark and attempted to make conversation with him on numerous occasions. He hoped to be able to befriend Dark and learn more about him, as he was concerned by how isolated Dark kept himself from others.
He never did manage to befriend Dark, who kept everyone at arm’s length at the time, and wasn’t used to people trying to be his friend. Kazuma never pushed him.
Fled back to Johto after the first collapse of Team Plasma. He currently lives quietly in Violet City, and hasn’t been out of the region since.
How many renditions has Dark had? Have you ever reworked him?
this is technically my second rendition of dark! i say technically because i haven’t changed him a whole lot since i first mused him-- originally he was much more skittish and timid, but i think both he and i found that very frustrating.
also his very first fc was allen walker from d. gray-man, but for some reason that i can’t really explain i’ve always though that shion suits him much better. ; u;
what's your favorite aspect of dark? favorite thing about writing him?
UM OH BOY WHY IS THIS ONE SO MUCH HARDER
honestly i love how much of a big heart he has. even when he’s in life-or-death situations he finds it in himself to worry about the people around him (coughsophiacough) and he hates the thought of his actions endangering others (coughwescough)
he’s just such a pure character, and even though he’s made mistakes in the past he does his best not to let those things define him
(( also one of my favourite things about writing dark is just casually having musa sleeping on him somewhere ok musa is an angel and ill throw him into threads wherever i can ))
