I think you could do a LOT of interesting things with Taiki
I WANNA TRY. I’ve always been hesitant to write much with the Starlights, but I’m at a point where I don’t care about an drama and and actually want to do the leg work to male sense of their backstory and personalities.
I’ve had THOUGHTS about Taiki for a while, mostly around her particular brand of awkward nerd, like, canon almost gives us hipster-lit-nerd Taiki, but it always falls back on making her rivals with Ami, which she IS, but it’s because they have contrasting types of intelligence, not the same (just like Ami CAN read Taiki isn’t BAD at math/science, but she’s not gifted in it and she can write circles around Ami, especially when it comes to creative stuff)
Granted I am absolutely basing this on that one episode where Taiki quotes poetry at Mako and Usagi (Whitman, I think?). THIS NERD LANDS ON A PLANET AND IMMEDIATELY STARTS READING POETRY IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES.
Also based somewhat on that ep, I pair her more with Mako than Ami, I think they’re complimentary.
