Kyo XD The benefits of working sloooowly on vacations.
I realized today that I have no last name for Kyo. And I think I'll keep it that way. ^^ But Kyo is my favorite OC evar, and for odd reasons. He's like Ryo on many ways, but he's like...complete. I can't think of the word. While Ryo questions life and fate, stuff like that, Kyo has an acceptance of it, or rather he understands it better. He's got more calm of mind compared to Ryo, who can't really find calmness. He's intelligent, while Ryo has shreds of intelligence, but can't really apply them to situations. But both of them have bad pasts I suppose. And while Ryo cannot let go of his past, Kyo is better able to accept it and move on from it.
Kyo suffers from amnesia (innovation at it's finest) and has no memory from before he was about 10 or so, and has been living on his own in the wild for years. Then he finds Kaira and company, and falls in love with her (Daww...) Eventually he does discover his past, and for awhile it does haunt and torment him. But with Kaira he's able to accept it and move on, as stated.
As I said, not the most original character, but he does surpass Ryo as my favorite because he's better able to deal with his own inner demons than Ryo is, since Ryo is consumed by his inner demons while Kyo has already defeated him. In a way, he is what Ryo can become, but in a way, never will.
