Signer Dragons: Yusei
Sep. 7th, 2016 11:20 pmWell, that was...really, really difficult, actually, and mainly involved using my phone to flip between different dragon pictures as well as ones of Yusei, but I think I got it looking fairly good. And recognizable, which is amazing. (I'm working on copying it so I can put it on my wall, complete with gold sharpie and color. Wish me luck.)
This goes along with the Signer Dragons series (maybe obvious, just saiyan.)
When researching, I saw a couple Yusei-as-a-dragon pics, but they all had him as Stardust. I wanted to offer a different take on it.
No idea why Yusei is smiling. It's not actually all that common in the show, but it just felt like it fit, here.

(He’s tired enough he misses Jack falling asleep too, and Martha coming out to yell at the pair of them for still being weak and napping outside where they could catch a cold.)

The Satellite doesn’t give many opportunities for flying. The closest he gets is taking his Duel Runner soaring through the tunnels, and it’s an amazing feeling.
He acts as a protector, a beacon of hope. People talk about how different he is, but it’s hard to realize exactly how different. It’s not like there’s a manual for this or anything.
His treasures are his friends. And his Duel Runner. And his deck. He’ll guard those with his life. Mostly everything else is unimportant, or relatively so.
He’s patient. Jack’s not. Jack’s different, like he is, but instead this urge to fly makes him restless, always looking for something new, always getting sick of the old.
When the Stardust Dragon is gone, he feels like a piece of himself is missing, and Jack doesn’t even use it. He’d be able to feel it, somehow. Maybe Jack doesn’t feel he’s earned it.
It’s honestly difficult to say what he’s most angry about. Jack managed to take his treasures. He didn’t take every card; didn’t take more than himself away—it’s Kiryu that did that—but it’s still such pain he doesn’t know where to begin. There’s a fire burning inside. It hurts. He doesn’t want to feel like this, doesn’t want the smouldering anger, but it’s there. Even when there’s still some left, it feels incomplete. (He’s not going to say that to his friends, though; is even more angry that he has to try to keep this feeling from them. It’s Jack’s fault.)
Relying too much on one card? Jack, you may just have a point, and not just about dueling.
He tries his best to keep his friends from seeing the fire, because it burns him sometimes, and it scares him, and what would it do to them? He doesn’t want to know, doesn’t want to see the hurt in their eyes any more than the fear. Jack’s the one who hurt them. They can’t hurt each other, not now. Not when each other is all they have.
They do figure out when he’s touchy, when they should leave him alone with his thoughts. Only Rally breaks through every single time. Which is usually why they send the kid out there when he’s at his worst.
And he’s not sure whether it’s more terrifying, that even as he wishes Jack harm, envisions the fire burning through the blond’s ego and leaving nothing but an ashen wasteland behind, the feeling like he’s still one of them, still a friend, still important, is just as strong. Just as true.
The others are worried about the plan. Not just Nervin. But he needs this. Just as much as he needs his friends, needed to build the Satellite hope.
And they duel again, and he gets the mark on his arm, and he feels like he’s flying.
His teeth are a little sharper, but then, he rarely shows them, so it’s not like anyone notices.
He’s not really conscious for the big revelation, though. The point when they figure out he’s not just your average human. The power had always been there, inside, waiting to be unleashed. The electroshock doesn’t bring out the mark on his arm, but it does bring out a different kind of change.
He changes into a dragon. It’s not unexpected—for Goodwin, anyway—but the damage from the size change freaks out the guys at the Facility. Which probably explains their treatment even more.
