*Yang and Pyrrha are watching Jaune and Neptune’s kid*

Noah Arc kid: Aunt Pyrrha, where did you get those scratches from?

Pyrrha, looking at her thigh: Hmm? Oh, I got it from a Grimm a week ago.

Noah arc kid: Oh no! Really?

Pyrrha, smiling: Yes, but don’t worry. I’m alright now. It was a tiny Grimm anyway. It didn’t even hurt actually. Barely tickled.

Noah Arc kid: Wow, really?

Pyrrha: Yep.

Noah Arc kid: Cooool! You’re so awesome, Aunt Pyrrha!

Pyrrha: Why Thank you, sweetheart.

Noah arc kid: Hey, was my dad attacked by a Grimm too then? He has scratches all over his back too. And they’re not big enough for a big Grimm either. Not even for a small Grimm either though....

Pyrrha:........

Noah Arc kid: He got them after a weekend where I spent a night with aunt Ruby and Weiss too. And he won’t tell me how he got them.

Pyrrha:........

Noah Arc kid: Did a scary Grimm attacked our house while I was gone? And why won’t he tell me?

Pyrrha, awkwardly coughing: U-uhm.....Uh....your father, he’s uhm........you know what, let’s just get you ready for bed, okay? Can you brush your teeth for aunt Pyrrha?

Noah Arc kid: But What abo—

Pyrrha: And if you brush your teeth real good then tomorrow me and aunt Yang will buy you ice cream before taking you home.

Noah Arc kid, eyes sparkling: Really?

Pyrrha: Huh Uh. Make sure to brush them good though.

Noah Arc kid: Okay! *runs to the bathroom*

Pyrrha: *sighs in relief*

Yang, whistling: Wow, that was awkward, wasn’t it?

Pyrrha: Yep. It sure was. Looks like we learned something new about those two, huh?

Yang: You got that right.

Pyrrha:......

Yang:.....so which dad do you think she was talking about? Jaune or Neptune?

Pyrrha: I honestly have no idea.

Yang: Like, I’m not weird for questioning, right?

Pyrrha: No, of course not. I’m actually quite curious now.

Yang: I know, right? Like, you can’t just learned information like that and not ask some questions.

In regard to Season 0/the first manga chapters, I can’t help but often wonder, how the series/story would have been, if they stayed with the original ‘King of Games’ and not ‘Duel King’. How things would have been, if they stayed with making different games (or “games” depending on what dangerous shit you wanna pull someone else through), instead of focusing on Duel Monsters only.

I know that focusing on the card game was easier for Kazuki Takahashi; that he didn’t need to come up with a new game for every chapter anymore (and also that you could easily market the card game, I think that was a nice bonus, too). But still...

It wouldn’t have been even necessary to introduce a new game for every chapter or episode. They could’ve just introduce a different game for every arc or just for some chapters. Now I understand, it makes sense for Duelist Kingdom to be a tournament about Duel Monsters, because Pegasus is the designer and developer of Duel Monsters. The same goes for Battle City, because Kaiba’s speciality is Duel Monsters. But between all this, some new and/or different games would have been interesting.

In the anime, instead of Noah and the Big 5 playing Duel Monsters, they could have made their very own game in the virtual world. I also would have liked to see Kaiba actually playing chess against Gozaburo again. Maybe not the ordinary chess, but some fancy, abnormal chess game. The Doma Warriors and Dartz could have had their very own game, with the Orichalcos stone still capturing the players in it’s seal.

Bakura could have only focused on his twisted RPG game, instead of switching to Duel Monsters halfway through.

And all the other characters, Honda, Anzu, Otogi, Ryou, Mokuba and so on, would have been involved as actual players in the different games, too. And not just cast aside as cheerleaders and supporters.

AU where the first words your soulmate will say to you are tattooed on your body at birth

Pyrrha, sitting in her room reading a book: *Content sighs*

Jaune, quickly rushing: Oh my god, Pyrrha, guess what?!

Pyrrha, jolting and accidentally throwing: Oh gosh, what?! Huh?!

Jaune: Ope, sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.

Pyrrha, awkwardly smiling: It’s okay. I’m alright. So what do you have to tell me?

Jaune: Oh yeah. I found my soul mate!

Pyrrha, smile becoming cricked: Oh....that’s uh....that’s nice.

Jaune, smiling giddily: I know right! It’s amazing! Look!

*Jaune moves the sleeve of his shirt to reveal a tattoo that reads “Excuse me” the tattoo being highlighted blue*

Jaune, smiling wide: Oh man. I thought I would never find my soulmate to be honest. I mean, this is just a common phrase that I was terrified I might somehow not realize I interacted with them. It’s just a huge relief off my shoulders.

Pyrrha, forcing herself to smile: Well I’m very happy for you, Jaune. Congratulations.

Jaune, raising an eyebrow: Hey, are you okay? You don’t seem as excited as I thought you might be.

Pyrrha, shaking her head: I-I’m find Jaune. I’m really happy for you.

Jaune: Pyr, I know when you’re lying. Something’s bothering you. What’s wrong.

Pyrrha, sighing: It’s just that......I’m sorry. I don’t mean to ruin the good mood. It’s just that.......

Jaune: You’re thinking’s about your tattoo, aren’t you?

Pyrrha, solemnly nodding: Yeah. I just don’t— *sighs* I’m just so confused. I’m the only person in this school without a tattoo. The only one, and I just don’t understand why.

Jaune: Are you sure you don’t have one? I mean, have you...*ahem* have you checked everywhere? Maybe it’s hidden somewhere?

Pyrrha: Yes Jaune. I checked my whole body, multiple times, yet I just can’t find any trace of a word, letter, or even a number. I don’t have a tattoo, and I just wish I knew why. Maybe I just......*quietly* maybe I just don’t have a soulmate...

Jaune, putting a comforting hand on Pyrrha’s shoulder: Hey now, don’t say that. I’m sure you do. It’d be a crime for the gods to make you this beautiful without anyone to flaunt it too. Okay? I’m sure there’s a reason why you don’t have a tattoo.

Pyrrha, sighing: I hope.......*shakes head* Anyway, Uh...I apologize for bringing down the mood. It was pretty selfish of me.

Jaune: No it wasn’t. It’s only logical.

Pyrrha, weakly smiling: So, tell me about them.

Jaune, raising an eyebrow: Huh?

Pyrrha, giggling: Your soulmate, silly. Tell me about them.

Jaune, blushing: Oh, right! Of course! Well his name is Neptune, and he has blue hair that’s has a stylish cut....

*MEANWHILE*

Roman, taking inventory: Alrighty. Ski masks, check. Getaway car keys, check. Tasers, check. Rope, check. Grappling hook uh....shit. Where is it? Ah......damnit. Neo, have you seen the grappling hook?

Neo, looking at her arm:........

Roman: Neo?

Neo:.........

Roman: Neo!

Neo, jolting: *signing* What?!

Roman: Aren’t you listening?!

Neo, signing: Yes!

Roman: Then What was I asking you just now?

Neo, signing: *smirking* If I was listening or not.

Roman, sighing: Youre such a little shit, I swear. Where’s the damn grappling hook?

Neo: *shrugs*

Roman, sassily: Then can you do me a favor and make yourself useful and go find it for me? Huh? Can you do that for me, pumpkin?

Neo: >:P

Roman, sarcastically: Ooooh, so scary. What am I going to do?

Neo: *angrily kicks Roman in the shins*

Roman, hopping on one foot: Gah Damnit! Just stop staring at your damn tattoo already as if it’s going to light up randomly, and find the grappling hook already!

Neo: *Flips Roman off, revealing a tattoo on his forearm that reads “Oh sorry, I didn’t see you there” which was colored red but not glowing*

Roman, nodding: Real cute. Now please find the grappling hook for me.

Neo: *Rolls her eyes before walking away*

Roman, groaning: Christ, teenagers. They’re the worst.

My favourite thing about filler arcs is once they're over, it's like they never even happened
