okkkk but demon king!dungeon lord!laios wherein Something Something happens and laios not only devours the lion inheriting the kingdom................ but perhaps the lions curse manifests differently too....

#dm #i dont know quite concretely what i would want from this but just like #perhaps the lion curses him with the wish granting ability along with the never having desires fulfilled i.e. no matter how happy he makes #everyone else no matter how Valuable and Needed he is its not ever going to be satisfying #to satisfy everyone else #i think it would be an interesting lens to analyze his feelings of alienation #even if he can be everything for everyone he will always feel nothing to no one #also i think this would manifest more as like #alexithymia tbh i.e. he knows what he wantsand needs and he can get it but it never quite scratches the itch #of course i think this would kind of mirror the whole bodhisattva thing he has going on #acceptance of a permanent middle path and whatnot #but also i think as his biggest desire is Not like enlightenment or whatever but much more material and interpersonal desire....#i dont think enlightenment would be something anywhere near his train of thought esp in my scenario #i think it could be an interesting inversion of his typical avoidant strategy instead throwing spaghetti at the wall #i think his thoughts would go something like:#no matter how much i avoid trying to bother [my loved ones]... they always come back around #i dont know why they come back around when they clearly dont think much of me... so clearly theres something i can do for them that they #know about and wont tell me...#*cue obtuse rubber goose green moose guava juice giant snake birthday cake large fries chocolate shake*#also i think it would be like about laios learning to adapt to his curse of course lots of sad and hilarious scenarios here #i.e. Desperate Friendship Appeals #or Wish Bureaucracy #or political secrets and intrigue if perse its a double life scenario #Where do the king and his cohorts go at night? What lurks under the castle? How do our resources never run dry?#marcille would be his biggest enabler i feel <3 #he and kabru would be like #kismesises kind of... yknow in a watered down way #he and falin.... i dont think theyd have a great relationship #i think laios would feel a lot of shame #and falin of course would be repelled due do laios' desires being unfulfillable and ik hed love for her to stay around forever
