I finally got around a short for the Arc-V au. It's a little story from Michael's pov after the invasion.
Hey, love your work! For the 5ds world, if Sayer doesn't show up, would Akiza instead be under the control of Roget? Just to give him more people to control (and have an excuse for her to be in the Friendship Cup and meet the other signers there)?
Thanks a lot <3
That's a really cool idea! I wasn't entirely sure if I was gonna put in Sayer or a stand in for him, but that would be really interesting. Having Roget manipulate Akiza and maybe other psychics to serve him in return for protection, or having them be a special unit in security maybe?
Maybe Akiza accidentally hurt someone and Roget promised to excuse the incident if she would work for him in security. And while she starts working there she gets to meet either other psychics or she meets Sherry and Roget manipulates them into believing that Neo Domino would turn on them if he wasn't in charge. When the lancers come to the synchro dimension maybe he sends Akiza &/or Sherry to test them and eventually try to beat them in the friendship cup.
Hi! I love your ideas for the signers! Do you think that Yusei and possibly one or both of the twins would get an invitation to the Fortune Cup? Cause that would be awesome to see! Also, would they meet Akiza and possibly the rest of the lancers?
Speaking of, how would the rest of the legacy characters interact with the Arc V characters? How would they meet? Would they all switch sides to the Lancers or some stay villains the whole time?
Sorry if this is a lot. All the ideas you gave have intrigued me so much and I can't help but ask questions!
Sorry this took me a while to respond to.
I think that it would be a fun homage to the origional to have Leo or Luna duel in the friendship cup, I think it would also be super cute to have Max cheering the twins on.
As for Yusei think it would be kind of funny if he got into the friendship cup via a lottery win or something and he couldn't really turn it down, not sure if that's what I'll do, or if he'll competing in the friendship cup at all, but it's a start.
They'll definitely end up meeting Akiza & the lancers (as well as Crow and Jack) at the friendship cup in some capacity.
I'm still working on how each character will fit in but generally the lancers will meet the legacy charcters in the dimension their from or in the first arc. I also actually think that's a really cool idea to have some of the legacy characters stay villains the whole time or almost the whole time but I don't have that fully thought out yet either so I'll probably write more about that in the future.
& No worries I really like getting questions it can help me go over and somewhat organize my thoughts, or give me new ideas!
Love your ideas for the other series so far in the Arc-V rewrite! What's your ideas for the 5ds characters? (Mainly the rest of the signers and possibly others like Bruno, Sherry, and/or Carly?)
I've been thinking about this since I wrote the 5d's post and you can see my thoughts on Yusei, Akiza, Leo, & Luna there. For this post I feel a little bit more solid in my idea for Bruno and Sherry has grown a lot on me since I first started thinking about what would become this au so I'm going to throw out some Ideas for her.
Bruno: He grew up with Yusei in the tops and is his best friend. He's a professional duel-runner mechanic, so he works to make things like the runners seen in the friendship cup etc. He'll play an updated T.G. deck.
Sherry: She'll probably be a part of the friendship cup. I feel like you could kind of go three ways with her. She could be paired up with Akiza which would be a lot of fun, maybe looking for some vaugue sense of revenge with her. She could be a more solo force, who eventually joins the lancers. Or (least likely) you could pair her Crow and Shinji and have her working to bring down the tops (This is mostly because I've been listening to too much Les Mis lately).
Carly: I don't have tons of ideas for Carly which is sad because I love her. I feel like she could be pretty similar to cannon, or maybe she could be working on Jack's pr team/be his spokes person due to her press experience.
