Feel free to make your own threads!

Did you find out your weapon form?
Keepin' this vague because that thread isn't finished yet, orz
[And it had been a pretty unexpected experience.
Yuugi holds out his hand as well but stops before making contact.]
Do you want me to try to transform?
ahaha, I'll stop asking questions about it then
Usually that's what weapons do when they resonate.
[Though he can't stop the slight pang when he remembers his first time resonating with Aion. The weapon hadn't been able to fully transform yet.]
Just please forgive my ridiculous lack of description. XD
He swallows and closes his eyes, reminding himself that if he can't do this--if he can't allow himself to resonate with someone--then his being brought here would be rendered completely pointless. He won't allow that; it would be like abandoning his other self in the midst of their battle for his memories and not having a reason.
The transformation is clearly not effortless and takes him some time, but after a few false starts and a brief struggle, he succeeds in changing to his weapon form. If he had more skill, he would try to angle himself in a way that didn't put Takuto at risk of being cut by the blade, but he's not quite there yet.
So it's up to Takuto to catch him properly or get out of the way before that longsword falls towards him.]
you're going to have to forgive my heavy reliance of light and water metaphors
...and his wavelength crashes into Yuugi like a rainbowed tsunami. He'd forgotten all about holding it back when he'd seen Yuugi's weapon form. A sword. A little longer than his star swords, and quite a bit heavier, but the basic idea was the same.]
You're a sword!
I love metaphors!
At all.
He recovers himself very quickly for someone who is supposed to be new to this resonance deal, mentally bracing against Takuto's wavelength and providing some counterbalance to the connection.]
'Yeah! It's not what I expected.' [The answer is somewhat delayed, and somehow, despite the fact that Yuugi is a sword right now, rather breathless.]
[ooc: Icon is Yuugi's reaction to being smacked by a tsunami. Not an indicator of his emotional state. >.>
I don't have any good icons for this tag, sorry!]no subject
[As if that is a good enough explanation for his uncontrollable wavelength. He passes Yuugi to his right hand smoothly and then holds him up towards the sky. He belatedly takes a deep breath... and realizes he's more or less crushing Yuugi under the weight of his own wavelength.
To be fair, the other boy is holding up pretty well... Still, he can vaguely sense that Yuugi is bracing against the pressure of his soul, which is rather uncomfortable once he notices it. He takes another deep breath to try to steady himself and feel more closely for Yuugi's wavelength, rather than just steamrollering it under his own.]
no subject
While no longer feeling as though he's about to be crushed is a good thing, the sense that Takuto is searching him out admittedly triggers a different kind of discomfort. Yuugi tries not to close himself off or push the other boy away and again, considering his limited experience thus far with resonance, he controls himself well.]
'You've fought with them before?' [The question is merely an attempt on his part to carry out a normal conversation and pretend that this isn't difficult or strange.
(Just for the record, being a sword and especially being swung through the air was really strange.)]
no subject
[Fighting inside giant robots is also his specialty, but those are quite a bit harder to come by out here.
Yuugi's wavelength is stronger than he imagined it might be, but it also seems to make perfect sense. Yuugi's soul feels like solid ground, which is almost a relief. On the other hand, there's the sense that the pressure of Yuugi's soul is also a wall. Takuto can lean against it, but he's not going to get past it.
He lowers the blade, trying to point it out straight in front. Awkwardly, he has to use two hands to keep the tip from dropping. He's going to have to work out a bit if he expects to accurately wield Yuugi with one hand.]
no subject
Since it's really beginning to sink in that this resonance attempt might lead to a good deal more in the future, he tries even harder to concentrate and not be concerned with whether or not Takuto will begin to sense the gaping hole in his heart. One thing he'll need to get used to is this being moved around like an object; having no control over the movement of his body is just odd. Not to mention, it means he'll need to have even more faith in his meister, in addition to what resonance itself already requires.]
'It's heavy, isn't it?'
1/2 "this resonance attempt might lead to a good deal more" heh heh heh
[Actually, Yuugi's a bit heavier than what he's used to, and Takuto is also out of shape. But the weight seems to suit Yuugi's soul, too, and Takuto has the beginnings of the desire to become stronger, not just physically, but... whatever way it was that gave his soul strength.
He'd had to get over the gaping hole where Aion used to....]
2/2
Asdjkfl; I'm going to have to be careful how I word things around you.
Drawing that parallel, he realizes immediately that Takuto is trying to hide something. It's not within him to pry about it but he can't help being concerned.]
'Takuto-kun, do you want to stop?'
I'm surprised this wasn't apparent earlier?
[Well, yes, he does, but not enough to actually stop. He can't give up so easily, but he's trying to fight back that lonely feeling and he knows that facing whatever emptiness is inside Yuugi is only going to make his own worse.
Maybe it's really too early for him to attempt resonance. Self-doubt erodes his already tattered wavelength, creating cracks along the wall meant to keep Yuugi out. Maybe... he still needs Aion....]
It was, but you reminded me again. XD
He understands.
His own wavelength strengthens again, compensating for Takuto's. Once again, Yuugi doesn't fight and he doesn't overwhelm; the force of his wavelength is the kind of push that brings someone back to their feet rather than to their knees.]
'Takuto-kun, it's okay!'
[His own heart still aches so deeply... But he can't let that hold him back forever, and neither can the other boy.]
'I know it isn't easy, but... You're strong, I can tell!'
[He doesn't say it exactly but the meaning is clear enough: Takuto is strong on his own, even without his partner.]
no subject
It's a bit of a jolt, the shock almost physical through their connection, but it's the kind of jolt that opens Takuto's eyes and makes his hand close even tighter around Yuugi's hilt.
The thing is, if they're going to do this... if they're really going to do this, they're going to have to do it together.]
So are you.
[The wall crumbles, and Takuto is shining again, the light from his soul enveloping Yuugi without fear or regret. Yes, there's a huge, gaping hole that was once filled by Aion, and yes, there is still something deep and dark that even Takuto doesn't shine light on, and there are likely lots of things he's going to have to explain to Yuugi later, but for now, this is enough. For now, this much of the dazzling yet vulnerable soul of the Galactic Pretty Boy will have to do.]
no subject
While a part of his soul still longs fiercely for the connection with his other self, he's glad that they did this today. Takuto reminds him of Jounouchi; he has the same passion and refusal to be downtrodden. If he were in his normal form right now, Yuugi would give him a warm smile. Like the other boy, he still has many things that he won't reveal right away--but starting from this moment, he truly considers Takuto a friend.]
sdlkfjlds my feelings are all tangled up in this thread
Although he's admittedly not very good at sensing the soul of the person he's resonating with, he catches a whisper of Yuugi's longing for partnership. It's true that they both are searching for some missing other half....
But it really is too soon for Takuto to be thinking that. Still, it's with less pain from loss and more understanding of his own mindset that he sets that thought aside.
It's strange, really, to feel so bolstered by a weapon's wavelength, but there really is a kind of hidden strength in Yuugi that Takuto didn't truly see before. Maybe because it was surrounded by such an innocent warmth. Either way, Takuto can't but feel that bit by bit, he's slowly reclaiming his true radiance.
He hopes Yuugi can do the same.]
Someone once told me... when what you want to do and what you ought to do are one and the same, you can hear the voice of the world. [He breathes deeply for a moment, lifting his eyes from Yuugi and staring up at the sky.] I think I'd like you to hear it, too, sometime.
♥! Glad that Yuugi could be of service~
What you want to do and what you ought to do...
The words strike a chord in his heart, and though he doesn't know what Takuto means by 'the voice of the world', he finds himself wanting to understand this thing that has such meaning for the other boy.]
'I'd like to hear it, too!'
[What he wants to do and what he ought to do... Mostly, they are the same. There's still a part of him deep inside that shrinks with fear of the outcome of the task that he's been given in his world--especially right now, when separation from his other self is such a real thing--and he's not sure that part will ever disappear completely, but...]
no subject
I'm sure you will, if it's what you want.
[When Takuto feels this strong, it's impossible to worry about outcomes. He can control the fate of the people he cares about, and of the entire world. It comes back to him like recollecting an old memory, his desire that was once the reason and purpose for his being in this world: Takuto is going to save the world. The thought resounds throughout his soul, becoming stronger with each echo and hopefully passing through to Yuugi as well.]
Let's practice! [There's something of a laugh in the shout, and he spins around, looking cheerfully for some kind of target. It looks like they might have to sneak into the weapons handling area to get at those dummies, but that isn't a problem!
He dashes off, his grip firm around Yuugi's hilt. He isn't going to get better or stronger by sitting around doing nothing, and he isn't going to be able to save the world if he issn't stronger.]
no subject
Takuto really is strong--incredibly strong! To pull himself up so quickly, and now he's practically shining with optimism. Yuugi feels it too, though the sudden swinging and running jars him back to earth somewhat.
He's still new to this 'weapon form' thing, remember?]
'O-okay!'
[Not that he thinks Takuto's going to drop him, but he wishes there was a way for him to... hang on or something. Still, the best way to get used to his new form is to practice, just as the other suggested, so he wants to do that!]
I insist there was no way to write this without it sounding so....
Yuugi is hard to balance, being much larger and heavier than what Takuto is used to. He puts another hand on the hilt to steady it for a moment, and then just passes Yuugi to the other hand entirely.
It's not as if he's any stronger with one or the other, of course. But with a grin and a flourish, Takuto aims Bakura's tip at the neck of the dummy, expecting to just get a small, neat slice across the throat. Instead, Yuugi thunks deep into the side of the neck.]
S-sorry! You're longer than I realized!
Sure, Tobi. Suuuuuuuure. ♥
'It's fine! Do you want to try again?'
[This latest realization sparks some curiosity. How strong is he in this form?]
it's actually canon for him to never make a mistake twice
He pulls the edge of the blade from the dummy, and then tries again, this time getting the tip slicing perfectly across the throat. His grin returns and he finishes the move with a spin and then a downward slice against the dummy's legs. This time he purposefully hits the leg squarely, pulling the hit's strength only slightly because he doesn't want to actually damage the dummy and he also doesn't want to be slamming Yuugi into everything at full strength.]
Ahahah, that's gotta be nice.
'You weren't kidding before!' [It's going to be a while before he can be completely comfortable in his weapon form but he feels a good deal more at ease in Takuto's hands after seeing the evidence of his skill and realizing that it does not, in fact, hurt him to be smacked into things.
He can't help but be pleased and a bit excited as well, considering how well his form seems to suit Takuto's abilities.]
