Fear & Loyalty

“DAMN.” QUESTIONS FOR MUSES

FEAR. - what are your muses biggest fears?

all of his fears boil down to not being the best, or being anything less than his idea of ‘perfect’. and to him, being ‘perfect’ is a quantifiable thing, mostly in terms of being number one on lists or having the highest numbers compared to competitors. when he falls short of that, its a nightmare. he uses his anger and shame to fuel his comeback buuuut its not always successful (such as with him dueling atem 29539 times and losing the same amount of times). it takes a long while for him to accept that he’s not the best at something in his area of interest. 

i’ve said this so much that im probably a broken record, but kaiba bases his self worth in his accomplishments.. and he sets incredibly high standards. so when he doesn’t meet all of his standards, its… terrifying for him. he ignores his fears by looking to the future 24/7, where his past failures can’t reach him. but he spends so much time focusing on the future and not learning from the past that he gets caught up in a vicious cycle of disappointment and anger.

LOYALTY. - does your character have any loyalty to any group?

absolutellllllyyyyyyyyyy not. i was going to try and argue that he is loyal to kaiba corp but… he is kaiba corp. its the same as him having loyalty to himself. he doesn’t have much loyalty to his employees because he’s anticipating for them to let him down.. he can’t trust people who aren’t him when it comes to making his visions a reality. i mean of course he’s going to hire the best of the best, but kaiba recognizes that human error can still factor into the equation.

overall, kaiba has a hard time giving loyalty to anyone or anything because its putting faith in someone that could break it. that’s why he likes to be the one who people put loyalty in; if you have people’s trust, then you have power over them. and hell, he’s used that to his advantage, even with mokuba.. (ie when he blames mokuba for telling gozaburo that he plans on taking over the company by buying up stocks).

Element & Humble

“DAMN.” QUESTIONS FOR MUSES. 

HUMBLE. - answered!

ELEMENT. - what is your muse “made of”, what is their character like? 

i hate to say anger for some reason buuuuut.. half of who he is was wrought from the anger he has towards those who have wronged him. the other half is his excessive pride in himself. (he wouldn’t agree with being labeled an angry individual, but sees nothing wrong with being proud of himself lol)

HUMBLE. -How does your muse handle praise?

“DAMN.” QUESTIONS FOR MUSES. 

kaiba sort of expects praise but acts like he isn’t fazed by it. this is with relation to him accomplishing a feat deserving of praise, such as him winning the duel monsters championship before the start of the second series. but even though he gets praise in those situations, he’ll act as though he doesn’t need it –  his accomplishments are temporary and he’s always looking to what bigger and better things that he can achieve in the future. he wants praise because he wants his worth to be validated, but doesn’t want people to know that. it’s all about keeping up his whole ‘i am powerful and in control of myself’ appearance. i can see him responding to praise with “it’s only natural” or similar phrases because he’s so certain of his abilities.. he KNOWS he’s good at what he does so when people praise him he’s just like “well DUH of course i’m that good”. and i guess he also wants praise cause he wants people to vocalize that they believe that he IS the best. so uuuuuh tldr; he agrees with praise rather than like.. thanking people for it or denying it. 

i remember touching on kaiba not liking praise when it becomes bootlicking some time ago, but yeah, he’s wary of excessive praise.. but mostly from employees imo. if its from fans or even someone he knows outside of work, the worst he’ll find it is annoying and tell whoever to shut up. as i said, he’s so certain of his praise that he doesn’t need people telling him over and over again how great he is cause like… he already knows! 

his rivals/enemies will die if they try to praise him, ESPECIALLY if he loses to them. he bases his self worth in his accomplishments, so if he loses, then everything about that situation is a Failure. praising him on his failure is like rubbing salt in the wound. 

but getting praised by a significant other… well.. thats Very Good.
