Meanwhile in Venice...

Hi there! Name's Judai Yuki, and I'm back on my journey to protect this world from the Dark World and any other world dominating force. Along for the ride we got Haou, who doesn't say much, and Yubel, who does. Not forgettin' my pal Winged Kuriboh either! (In other words, a Bonds Beyond Time/Post-BBT Judai Yuki RP blog. I'm independent, even if I mainly rp with yf-shootingstarofsatellite, so just hit me up if you wanna rp. I'm pretty much game for everything.) Current Location: Neo Domino City Married to yf-shootingstarofsatellite <3 Magic Anon: None

I assume this will be the true farewell.

ooc:

Honestly, I tried to build up motivation to continue playing as Judai, but I think... on this format and in this community, I've been burned out. Judai's a bit tired of it as well. While we enjoy filtering through questions and answering them, playing with other characters, and meeting new friends, the threat of the reason I took a hiatus in the first place looms overhead like an angry boulder.

For those of you wondering why I had taken my first hiatus, I'll gladly explain. I got sick of torturing Judai to fulfill anon and non-anon fantasies. When it was my own plot, I was okay with it. I knew the extent of psychological damage from the start. However, when I was playing by other people's games and rarely counseled as to what was going to happen, I truly felt like I didn't know how bad it was going to be. I know that this is only a roleplay blog and it's only for fun, but I have been rather attached to Judai's character for quite some time, as I've been playing him since before I made this account for it.

I just don't want to get peeved trying to make other people happy anymore. There's no point in me getting frustrated over this.

I'm not going to point fingers. I'm not gonna push blame. I knew what I was walking into when I joined this community, and I'm thankful for the people I've met and the people that are still by my side. I'm glad to call most of you friends, though  you have probably never talked to me out of character for any reason. Yeah.

That's it.

I'll close this blog and delete it after a few days have passed and this has been notably thrown around.

Thanks for the memories,

Angii

The android stood there quietly thinking to himself for a minute. Sure, he loved the mechanic, but still to this day, the mechanic thinks that it's just a plot to destroy him. So to get him to say such thing, that would be difficult to near impossible. The android cleared his throat before speaking again, "F-Fine... I'll get your proof..." He was more than sure he was going to regret this.

"Alright then." Judai smiled faintly and took a few steps up to the other.

"Lead the way, then. By the way, my name's Judai Yuki. You probably already know that, but it's awkward walking around with somebody I'm not at least acquainted to, so I figure if I give my name, you will give me your's." He stared at the other expectantly, waiting for the ring of a name he could memorize to finally drop. At the same time, however, he was inspecting the other's features. Skin that seemed a bit too perfect, and a face with near perfect features. In a way, this guy reminded him of Bruno.

"He's not normal, Judai. I'd keep your guard up." Yubel reminded him, but the brunet waved it off.

I know all of that, Yubel. I'm actually interested where this will go, though.

"I'll have you know that Fudo loves me now." the android declared.

While he knew the words were not true, the inkling in the back of his mind took them for what they said. Who'd love a guy that's never around, anyway...? It took a second to regain his composure, but once he had, it was back to the usual positive act, complete with calm tones and general nonchalant behavior.

"That so...? Well, this is the first I've heard of it. I have to say, though, if it's true, I have no intention of staying in your way. Like I said, Yusei is the one who claims me. I'm just grateful to be able to be with somebody I love." But if he loves somebody else...

"Prove it to me, and I'll leave. Yusei's the only thing that keeps me in this city anyway." It's true. Maybe I should just return to my own time. I'm probably causing all kinds of paradoxes by sticking around... Making it easier for the world to fall apart.

"And I mean proof. You make him say it."

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

The android walked over to the Slifer and shoved him to the ground. "Fudo is mine!"

Upon hitting the ground, the duelist opened his eyes to face whoever was confronting him all of the sudden. He was shocked to see a man standing in front of him, considering that most people who claimed his husband were typically female, but nonetheless, quickly stood up and hopped backwards to give himself a bit of distance from the newfound challenger.

"Yusei isn't anybody's, so don't talk like he's property." His tone, albeit calm, still did show a hint of annoyance. This constant claiming of people was getting on his nerves.

"And hey, he asked me to marry him. I never claimed him at all. If anything, I'm his."

welcome back c:

ooc: Good to be back!

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

Oh thank God, you're alive!! I was wondering where you went! *holds up a photo album and some peppermint chocolate brownies* these are for you!

ooc: I left because this blog was getting to be pretty emotionally frustrating to keep running and because I was gonna be starting school and theater and knew I wouldn't be around very often. When I found out that my life wasn't going to be absorbed into extracurriculars and I had felt I had given Judai a break from all the emotional horrors, I figured it was a good idea to come back. Don't worry, I'm not gonna die on any of you. :3

Especially when I was running a different rp blog while I was away from this one. XD

Judai: Brownies! -takes them and flees-

ooc: ... He means to say thank you. He just hasn't had brownies in a long time. Thank you for the gifts, though. I'll make sure the slacker gets this. -takes the photo album and walks after him-

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

ooc: TUMBLR. HOW COME YOU DIDN'T TELL ME I HAD ASKS. ;A;

-Ahem- uhm yeah sorry bout that. And aha, thanks so much. It's good to feel wanted and welcome back, after leaving you guys for so long. :3 -huggles-

“That should change, but I guess that’s our faults. Hey, why don’t we take him to Martha’s tomorrow? He could play with the other kids, maybe make some friends over there. Then you won’t have to worry about where he goes if he goes over there on his own.” A nonchalant hand finished his suggestion, as if he was suddenly not the humanoid’s parent anymore. Though in his mind, he wasn’t. He was never around, so the title of parent didn’t belong to him.

“Whatcha say?”

The turbo duelist nodded. “Yes, that sounds like an exceptional idea. Although, I would be still transporting him there for the first few times until I knew for sure that commute isn’t too terrible risk wise.”

He seems… Exceptionally urbane today… jocund even. It’s likely a polite defense mechanism but I won’t question it.

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

"Well, I figured that. I meant later on." Kizuna continued padding along their sides, noting the obvious tension before wagging his tail straight into Yusei's leg as if telling him that even a dog could feel the tension in the air. Judai, however, paid no mind to it. The brunet's mind was more at keeping the other from thinking about things that were plaguing his mind and causing him stress, and maintaining a level of comfort and joy, for sure.

Perhaps it was just the traveling that was getting to his head, though.

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

The brunet continued walking the route he knew led back to the garage with a small smile as he listened. Yusei always had people coming to visit him. It must be nice to be remembered like that, he thought before dismissing the idea entirely. It wasn’t that people didn’t remember him, but rather that he was always moving and never stayed in one place for very long.

“Quiet, huh? Guess the exciting things only happen when I’m around to bring my brand of trouble.” The duelist joked, knowing full well that it could just be that Yusei’s “nothing” was actually that: something. He wouldn’t question it any farther, though, seeing as it was obviously bothering him.

“…S-So! H-Has Stardust made any new friends?”

[yf-shootingstarofsatellite]

The mechanic, although, was caught up once more in his thoughts before answering a bit distracted. “Hmm? Oh yes…” He smiled slightly for the other. “Yes, things are definitely more interesting when you are around.”

“Stardust…? New friends?” New friends… New friends…

“He… Hasn’t exactly per say… no.” Well it was possible to sound worse aloud than how it did in my mind.

Though in his mind, he wasn't. He was never around, so the title of parent didn't belong to him.

"Whatcha say?"

[yf-shootingstarofsatellite]

The mechanic smiled down to the dog that walked with the two duelists. “Is that so… Do you help Judai on his journey’s Kizuna?” The dog simply walked along as if it knew it did, but couldn’t be bothered to acknowledge such as a bark to the mechanic to show so.

Changing the subject… I get it Judai…

“Anything happen… Things have been quite quiet I’ll admit, although… there have been a few people from my past that have shown up once more - even your past as well. Though… They don’t seem to be causing any harm, however one’s words are a bit concerning to me… Not as much concerning as doubtful I suppose. I don’t believe their words… I simply can’t see such a dramatic shift compared to the last of when I saw and spoke to them.”

"...S-So! H-Has Stardust made any new friends?"

[yf-shootingstarofsatellite]

The mechanic couldn’t really argue with that. “No… I suppose not, I may have dramatized such observations.” He poked the other duelist’s cheek. “No mountain man for you huh? Not even when you’re travelling in the mountains?” The turbo duelist asked, taking the labeling a bit too seriously.

After a few moments however, the mechanic noticed the ex-Slifer student’s eyes begin to wander as if they were in search of something. He was about to ask, though his query was soon answered as the brunette informed him they should walk while conversing in order to find the malamute pup they both knew as Kizuna.

“Of course, I bet he’s gotten bigger as well.” The turbo duelist agreed as he began to walk - hoping he was heading in the correct general direction of the whereabouts of said animal.

[thatsliferslacker-blog]

As predicted, the fluffy white dog came running at the sight of his owners walking away from their current position. He slowed to a trot once he was next to the two, though, and barked an apparent greeting to Yusei before turning to focus on the path ahead.

"Yeah. He's like a sled dog, now. When I go on the longer voyages, he even gets his own backpack to help hold all the supplies we need. It's really... helpful." Judai explained casually, but almost in a way that said that he was tired of talking about his journeys already. "So... anything happen to you while I was gone? I'm sure there had to be something cool... a repair or a person you met..."
