Some more info on Kali!

- Some Kali x Magnifico ship songs I like so far are Sleeping At Last - I'll Keep You Safe and Soltero - Communist Love Song. In my mind the first one is for when Kali is just starting out as Magnifico's apprentice and sees the wishes for the first time, and also them slowly falling for each other. The second one is after everything goes wrong, and Kali studying forbidden magic to free him (hear me out okay. The first line fits perfectly. I can't really explain it but you should see the AMV in my head). Also The Greatest Showman - From Now On is on my playlist too, it's very Aftermath coded. I love finding songs for my hyperfixations deal with me.

- In the early days of being his apprentice, Kali initially forms a but of an unhealthy attachment to Magnifico due to him providing safety. It does get fixed and they become more normal about him once they get to know him as a person, but the first couple of weeks they're just looking up at him with big ol' starry eyes. He's not entirely sure what to make of it.

- Outwardly Kali is the awkward and shy quiet type that could rival Bazeema, with almost childish excitement over learning magic. Magnifico soon learns they're actually a snarky little gremlin (once they're comfortable with him that is, because he IS a King and you don't just start off being playful with him). The general population (including Amaya) still think of them as unassuming though, which is how they get away with studying forbidden magic in secret. Nobody expected it.

-It takes Kali months to get a handle on forbidden magic, years to even begin to fully understand it. Before they can even begin they need to invent new protective measures, and rewrite most of the spells (as for example Magnifico used people's wishes in one, and that's not really feasible if you're trying to be good).

Figuring out how to prevent being corrupted is difficult enough, but bringing someone back from it is infinitely more difficult. There's nothing about that in the book, not even clues. (We all know it's gonna be True Love's Kiss. It's Disney. Come on. How did we not have one of those in canon. I'll die on this hill).
