Would you mind doing Kikyo for character meme? 2,12,17 and 20?
2. Their emotional/moral weak spots
Byakuran is the biggest weakness emotionally. He knows that Byakuran may not care for him as some version of him probably haven’t, but Kikyo knows he’s useful and more importantly knows how to keep his distance while still knowing how Byakuran is feeling.
Better than invading his space like some uncouth child or as a pestering swordsman who really wants to worship his god, personally.
12. Grudges or vendettas
Kikyo is the grudge master. Also the passive-aggressive schemer and he just smiles when he thinks that someone deserves it. He’ll ignore it or terrify all those involved. Maybe both at once.
He’s got this serial killer/business shark/have a nice day smile, you see, so if he’s ignoring Bluebell trying to drown Zakuro on dry land, Zakuro has probably done something to annoy Kikyo. Something Zakuro knows not to do.
About the only one exempt from this is Daisy and that is because Daisy is the good child. He doesn’t bring home messes and is mannerly. Generally the only mess that happens is when he fails to die through some new attempt at suicide but that’s just sad and not a reason to hold a grudge.
Byakuran isn’t exempt from grudges though.
Marshmallow shortages, them being out of date and more. Kikyo has ways to make Byakuran suffer without leaving a mark.
17. Regrets
Eh, if Kikyo had one regret it would first be that he spent so long in the corporate world, being belittled and hated. Thankfully he knows that his alternates generally did leave it, if not always for Byakuran so much as their own reasons.
In other worlds they ruled as kings after all.
A kingdom is founded on blood and bones.
20. What-ifs/Alternate Timelines
King Kikyo is a thing I think about sometimes.
Also Kikyo in Jurassic World, playing with the raptors. Just quietly imagining Byakuran buying the premises out and that’s where he got the dinosaur-DNA for the carnage boxes.
Oh and Varia Kikyo.
