#Hermos

[stormy-knight134]

Ok. Real talk right now. And this is just me ranting, whatever you want to call it. These three. Dragon Knights Timaeus, Critias and Hermos.

I'm dying to know they're backstory. Yeah, we saw a short bit in season 4 but..what were their lives like before Dartz went insane? What are their personalities? What would their modern selves be like? How would they act? I want to write about them but I have other works I want to do first. Im not going to lie, I have a crush on these guys. Maybe I'll put them in my Zombie Apocalypse AU or something. ❤️💙🩵 I really want to know more about them.

The Legendary Knights Hermos & Critias resemble their perspective card user, yet act the exact opposite of them.

Answer every character ask for Joey Wheeler please.

1. Why do you like or dislike this character?

Oh geez, I love my Joey boy so much, honestly. One thing that I think is really great, and I know I've seen other people mention this before, is just how real he feels. His characters is so multifaceted and goes through so much development, and he just feels like such a real dude.

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

Just, everything? He has certified golden retriever energy with his deep love and loyalties, and it's one of the best things about him.

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

I do get annoyed by some of his more obnoxious behavior, and sometimes he's downright embarrassing, but that comes with the territory of being a teenager.

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?

I do think seeing Joey as a random bystander in a Marvel movie would be a good giggle.

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Ship songs aside, the first song I could come up with was Hall of Fame by Gym Class Heroes. Boy knows what wants. Being at the top, right up there with Kaiba and Yugi, is his repeated goal throughout the series.

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

Brooklyn roots, going by the dub. My grandfather was born there, lived most of his life there. The other thing we have in common is being not on speaking terms with our mothers. 🥰

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

The fandom never lets us forget where Joey started: violent, street-tough bully trying to scrape a life together basically on his own. As much as I love cute happy Joey chilling with the scapegoats and his pals, it would be such a disservice to forget where he came from.

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

I actually can't think of anything? I think the fandom generally treats Joey well.

9. Could you be roommates with this character?

That's actually a tough question. Depends on how good he is about cleaning up after himself. I think we could probably with something out though, a deal that involves trading chores for meals.

10. Could you be best friends with this character?

Probably, but I'd probably be at least half as naggy as Tea is with him. The "omg Joey use a napkin boi" kind of nagging, but I think he'd fit right in and we could tease and be goofy.

11. Would you date this character?

I'm married, so the safe answer is no lol

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

Boy had to get good at taking care of himself, so he shops deals and coupons and plans his meals around those, even when he's more financially secure. It's an ingrained habit.

13. What's an emoji, an emoticon and/or any symbol that reminds you of this character or you think the character would use a lot?

🐶😜😄🤬

14. Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character.

90s punk/grunge he could so rock that

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

Aw, I can only pick one? If I had to go based off of the Joey ships I've written, it would be Puppyshipping, but I think Puffshipping is crazy precious. And I can't shut up about Polarshipping anytime he and Mai are in a scene together, their chemistry is too good. So those are my top three. There's so many good Joey ships though!!!

16. What's your least favorite ship for this character?

I don't know that I have one? Not as far as popular ships go. I'm not big into Riskshipping, I can only see it as being unhealthy even with Mokuba aged up. (Irateshipping and Fadeshipping aren't necessarily healthy either, but they're very fascinating.)

17. What's a ship for this character you don't hate but it's not your favorite that you're fine with?

So, on the DM shipping list is Babbleshipping, which is Joey x Kisara, which I just can't imagine working (and I've never seen any fanworks for it either), but I also find the idea of Joey swooping in as Mr. Steal Your Dragon Girlfriend from Kaiba kinda hilarious.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

Joey's got a lot of great pals, but I think Tristan is just such a solid bro to him throughout the whole show (except for hitting on Serenity which is still so weird to me cause she's 12). But the advice he was giving him in Season Four regarding Mai was honestly solid advice: "give up on her, man, you're just going to get hurt if you keep going like this." It's just too sweet. Joey doesn't listen to him ofc because this boy never gives up.

19. How about a relationship they have in canon that you don't like?

Obviously I wish he had a better relationship with his dad, but it's Yugioh: good dads aren't allowed.

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

I think Duke is actually a godd logical, grounding, down to earth presence for Joey to be around. Duke is not afraid to call him on his crap, and I can just see then getting along pretty well, esp once Joey's matured just a little bit more.

22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to ths character? Something you don't like?

I appreciate when people write him with the accent, even if it's only slightly. It's just a fun detail imo. I appreciate the details people create to fill in his exact background as a fighter and how he lives and stuff. The attention to detail with the roots of who he is as a person.

23. Favorite picture of this character?

The first thing that popped into my mind is a fanart of his previous small smile, but I assume this is asking for canon images, so... Just look how happy and cool he is!!!!! And his Lord of Red appearance is just too heckin cool for me to not include.

24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?

I think Ashe Duran from FE3H would be able to relate to him with their roots in poverty and both changing (Joey from a bully and Ashe from a thief) into becoming the best, most noble versions of themselves that they can be. They have the sweetest smiles and would do anything to protect their little siblings.

Rock from Nanbaka is a little similar I guess, but Rock comes from money and has a much more refined palette when it comes to food. Rock was still a gang member though, just like Joey, and they both think with their stomachs and are still brawlers. Also literally delinquents.

If I had to compare him to someone in UtaPri, I'd say he's got the same mischief vibes as Reiji, but the better match is the happy sunshine child Otoya Ittoki who's been through a lot and had a rough childhood but won't let it get him down. The future is full of opportunity for these boys.

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

Oh geez, let me think back to twelve year old me... I really can't recall. I remember one of my first impressions in fandom was rejecting puppyshipping, partly just because it was popular, and then the more I learned about the characters separately, the more it compelled me, but that's another story.

My impression of him now? I love this man, he is a beacon of love and loyalty and getting better, which is a good example that all of us need sometimes honestly.

26. FREEBIE QUESTION!!

GUYS I KNOW SEASON FOUR HAD ISSUES BUT IT DID GOOD STUFF FOR JOEY. IT GAVE US HERMOS. IT GAVE US ATLANTIS JOEY. JOEY IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS YUGI AND KAIBA IN A METAPHYSICAL SENSE. HE'S JUST AS MUCH OF A HERO THAT SAVED THE WORLD. HE'S NOT "JUST JOEY." HE IS JOEY FUCKING WHEELER, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.

Seriously though, imagine how validated that made Joey feel? Surrounded by shadow magic and "chosen ones" and all this talk of reincarnation and destiny, and he thinks he's just along for the ride until wham! No bitch, you're special too! That's gotta warm his heart and make him smile, even after bad days working shitty jobs, or getting second place at a tournament. He's a legendary knight, his soul is tied to the Spirit World just as strongly as Yugi and Kaiba. He'll never lose his confidence ever again as long as he remembers that.

Also, I love the idea of him having all daughters. He's going to spoil them and be so crazy protective of them. He will never let them think they're anything less than gorgeous. He will sit down to tea parties with the frilly princessy one and give fighting tips to the butch one and adore all of them and very publicly threaten their partners with bodily harm if you ever dare hurt his girls. Dad Joey makes me happy. ❤️

Right after defeating Dartz and the Great Leviathan, the Legendary knights return to Earth, and decide to have a conversation with their chosen Duelists. Somehow, this leads into various revelations, and some very complicated arguments.

Today’s fic for @rainstormcolors's Super Yu-Gi-Oh! Rarepair Week (yeah I posted another link today, but it was for yesterday’s fic that i posted too late, sorry there). It is a Legendaryshipping fic (that is Timaeus/Critias/Hermos).

I always love seeing the Atlantis knights get some love!

Critias and Hermos

[yugioh-rare-pair-poll]

Hermos really needs someone dig his claws into... if you get what I'm saying. ;)

Put down your choice for that kind of fun in the Yugioh Rare Pair Poll!

[hapotonradio]

Haluun takas sen ajan ku ei ollu someja/ne oli vasta hyvin varhasessa vaiheessa ja sen sijaan oli keskustelufoorumit missä perseiltiin. Ja se että bändeillä oli kunnon nettisivut mistä pääs kuuntelee biisejä ja kattoo musavideoita ja sinne päivitettii kaikki maholliset haastattelut ja uutiset ja oli vieraskirjat ja kaikki. Pliis sanokaa etten oo ainoo :(

Time Magic Hammer

While not quite as funny as Rocket Hermos Cannon is appearance wise, this thing being the very first Hermos fusion ever is funny in and of itself. Not funny in a "I infected this cool dragon" way, but in more of a "there is no way a dragon was involved in this fusion” way. The Time Wizard elements are self evident (he even gets a little silhouette cameo in the background!), this being a hammer that warps other monsters into the future, but as for Hermos' influence????? Nonexistent. Not that this hammer needs it, because it’s super cute and sleek regardless. I really love the addition of the little floating wings; they help this card seem like more than just a hammer. While the background is a little busy, the green swirls are a direct reference to Time Wizard’s own background, with deformed clocks added in there to help emphasize this card’s time magic abilities.

Rating: 10/10, Weaponized Time Wizard

ROUND 1A, MATCH 11 OUT OF 16

Monster Stats & Propaganda Under the Cut:

The Claw of Hermos is used by Katsuya Jonouchi ("Joey Wheeler" in the dub). Though this is technically a spell card, it was used in a way more similar to a monster card hence why it is included. The real reason why it is included is because Mod didn't realize it wasn't a monster until I already made a bracket listing.

Description (according to the anime): Send this card and 1 monster you control to the Graveyard to activate an Equip Spell Card that is a fused version of this card and that monster.

Propaganda:

[None Submitted]

The Fang of Critias is used by Seto Kaiba. Though this is technically a spell card, it was used in a way more similar to a monster card hence why it is included. The real reason why it is included is because Mod didn't realize it wasn't a monster until I already made a bracket listing.

Description (according to the anime): Send this card and 1 Trap Card you control to the Graveyard to Special Summon a fused version of this card and that Trap Card.

The Legendary Knights of Spirit world: Timeaus, Hermos, & Critias

[rosalind-hawkins]

Watching Yugioh Season Four with my husband and we got to the point where Pegasus explains that the Legendary Knights were turned into dragons by Dartz to "make them weaker" and my husband lowkey lost it

Him: "I'm sorry, turning them into dragons made them weaker?! That's fucking terrifying! Who the hell were these guys?!"

Honestly, super valid point. If turning you into a dragon makes you weaker, you must have been a giga-chad to start with.
