ok sorry one more Kisarapost and then i'll throw my computer into the sea

but, you really can't separate Kisara and the Blue Eyes White Dragon. The whole thing with Kisara is that her ka is atypical; her ka and ba are both the White Dragon. This is why it can only be summoned when she's unconscious, because it is literally her consciousness.

This is why I use "Kisara" and "BEWD" interchangeably in a way I wouldn't do for, say, Mahaad and the Dark Magician. In YGO's worldbuilding as it pertains to Ancient Egyptian beliefs, people like Mahaad will have a ka that corresponds to whatever monster represents them. The ka is one's "life force," and actually it's normal for the ka to separate from the rest of the soul after death. The ba is one's personality, or what makes their 'self' unique. So while you can separate Mahaad and his personality/self from the Dark Magician, you can't do the same for Kisara and BEWD.

There's lots of interesting thematic stuff to dig into here with Kaiba (how Kisara and Seto both relate to the concepts of humanity vs. monstrousness, how that ties into power vs. inclusion vs. acceptance, etc.) and with death in general. Kisara's death is in fact a reunion and actualization, which is closer to the real Egyptian beliefs around what happened to the soul - the ka and ba were supposed to reunite after death to form the akh. This is also why I don't think Kisara being "fridged" in the narrative is the only interpretation. She's onscreen all the time and communicates with Seto frequently! If you can reconcile a giant swag ass lizard with a pretty waifish anime girl and hold them in your head as the same thing.

(Do I ship them? Well, yes, no, in a mutually destructive and beautifully transformative and fucked up and undefinable way that doesn't have need of a strict platonic/romantic dichotomy. You know. just a guy and the absolutely fucking massive unholy creature he perceives as 'his' because he can't make sense of his feelings in any way other than ownership, but actually she's the one stalking him through millennia and dimensions, so maybe he's the one who got owned. #justdragonthings)

“I’ve missed you,” Character B murmurs, holding Character A closer to them, a soft noise of appreciation slipping from Character A’s mouth as they lean into Character B’s warm embrace.

“I’ve missed you...” Character B groans, hips thrusting into Character A’s as Character A lets out a soft whimper at the sensation of Character B slowly filling them up to the brim. “So fucking much, you don’t even know,” Character B breathes out, dipping their head down a little and resting their forehead against Character A’s.

“Mmm,” Character A murmurs, clenching around Character B on purpose, enjoying the soft gasp slipping out of Character B’s mouth. “I’ve missed you, too,” Character A says softly, hand wrapping around the nape of Character B’s neck. “I’ve missed this, too,” Character A says, pulling them down for a long awaited kiss.

Like no matter how gay you think akutagawa is being right now I promise he’s got 20 years worth of repressed yearning built up in there despite only knowing Atsushi a fraction of that time
