26, 37, and 41 for scc
this got SO much more angsty than i imagined, but thank you for the prompts !! (it's late i apologize if anything came out wrong or confusing ^^)
26 - "what sacrifices do they make for each other ?"
obviously, they all sacrifice each others safety with going out of their way to rebel against queen together, but other than that . i feel like capns sacrificed dates before to be with k_k and sweet (pre polycule ofc) . say he finally got a date set up with a girl after so long, but k_k wants to have a fun outing in the city with them, having a full plan set up and being SO happy to spend time with the both of them . he can't bring himself to just decline that smile, that damned smile . he cancels the date and goes with k_k and sweet instead .
for the others, i feel sweet sacrificed the harsh ideals brought by their upbringing to be with the others, while the roots of the harsh perfectionism dig deep, they abandon the ideals to always be stern and stoic to let themself be energetic with the others .
and for k_k ? they sacrifice their reserved nature . i feel that k_k was very reserved before meeting sweet and capn, keeping go themself and the quiet smile, but it's impossible to be reserved, to hold feelings back when around them . sweet's energy, capns coolness, it means everything to be around two darkners as cool as them .
37 - who's the most emotionally sensitive/cries most often ?
this is a hard one, but i'd probably say capn . he'd never cry in front of his partners, he'll even the slightest feeling of sadness is bad news, as it tends to show cracks in the cool dude persona, so he tries to stay away from anyone when his sensitive self esteem is damaged .
however, there have been times it's broken in front of sweet and k_k . it's embarrassing to him, but just breaks sweet and k_k to see their partner be under so much to just break then and there . comforting words are given, and if he's alright with it, gentle holds are taken . holding him, telling him he means the absolute world to them . it doesn't fix things instantaneously, but it at least reinforces the idea to capn . even if he still hates to show emotional vulnerability, he knows sweet and k_k would NEVER judge him for showing it when it becomes unbearable to hold back .
41 - what would they do if they lost each other ?
ouch . ough . owie .
revert back to bad habits . sweet overworking themself to point of disrepair and low battery, nobody to remind them that the mentality that they're nothing unless they can be useful is bad . capn hiding every emotion behind shades and a smirk, nobody telling him how harmful that truly is to his mentality . k_k pushing every emotion besides happiness down, nobody to tell it that it's ok to not be happy sometimes .
i hc that before the band, all three were very secluded and alone . to finally find someone who understands you, to finally feel complete, to have someone who cares about you to worry about your habits and help you break out of them . and to lose that, it's very easy to revert back into the mindsets you were in before .
all three make sure that never happens, they complete each other . one without one of the three is an incomplete product . you can't have one without the other two . they love each other so much, they can't go back to the loneliness from before . their life has gotten so much better now that sweet capn cakes has formed and that they're all dating, they mean the world to each other .

thinking abt bllk (no surprise there) and how (at least until now) all (well, most of?) the characters backstories aka basically the reason for their most prominent issues are, instead of extremely tragic and complex events, simply children's logic applied to recurrent situations in their daily lives (and especially the sport they love):
bachira feels lonely: bachira was a weird and lonely kid who was also extremely passionate abt (and talented in) football, more than any other kid, making bachira feel isolated even when he was playing with others. this got even worse when the kids he played with started to resent him, calling him a "monster" and bullying him. while talking with his mom, she told him to keep believing in his inner voice and ignore those who dont understand him, resulting in bachira giving that voice the form of a "monster" that can play football with him to feel less lonely. which, obviously, made him even more lonely, even if it was an imaginary friend created to aliviate that feeling. because bachira still felt lonely, even after many years and even after playing with other people in school who werent any fun for him, he kept the monster by his side. believing no one could ever beat this monster (thank GODNESS he did 🎉!!! HE is the monster no one can beat!!!! his arc is one of my favs hes literally unstoppable now, i love him dude i love h)
isagi holds himself back too much: isagi (i read the light novel abt him hehe) was a timid and mild mannered kid until he discovered football, which he fell in love with. while playing the sport he could let go of his shyness and actually be selfish and go all out. uuuntil... he entered his high school's reputable football club, where the motto was to play as a team above everything else (a very anti-blue lock logic lol). isagi then, in an effort to accomodate to the social norms of the club (bc hes isagi, and off the field hes calmer and timider), had to simmer down in the field as well. supress himself. at times it seems like his on and off switch is kind of stuck.
barou has main character syndrome: barou was a very, on top of talented, meticulous kid and therefore the best in football out of every other kid he knew, who didnt take it as seriously and were more than happy to let him score all the goals. he didnt understand why they were satisfied with letting other people take all the glory, so he secluded himself, convinced that he was the only player that actually mattered on the field. the best. the Main Character. everyone else was completely worthless, their only use being to serve HIM. (until he got his ass kicked by isagi and became the villan instead of the main character, bc oh, shit, barou's not actually the main character???? then he'll hunt down & DESTROY the main character).
rin (god, rin) has a brother complex (i used to hate when ppl oversimplify whats wrong w him w this term but tbh it does boil down to this lol ToT): rin idolized his older brother like crazy and wanted to be just like him. bc he was also blessed with talent and also had a great relationship w sae, he had everything he needed to fulfill his dream of being the 2nd best striker, the 1st obviously being his older brother, who rin viewed as the best, most talented player in the world. when sae comes back from spain and tells him 'the world is big and im not actually the best, you go and be the best striker by yourself' (basically: our (your) dream is over), rin has a fucking breakdown. its not really a tragic, despair-inducing event, objectively speaking. but in the manga its framed as such bc for rin, in his childish logic, it is. bc his brother IS the BEST player, what the fuck do you mean hes not number 1 outside of japan?? ....then what about rin? if his brother cant be the best, rin cant be the 2nd best either, let alone the best. he feels like sae ruined everything, gave up, broke their (rin's) dream!!!! after sae humilliates him, rin directs all of his frustrations at him and bows to defeat him. as long as rin sees himself as sae's little brother, he's never gonna be able to surpass him, bc in rin's mind, sae is still the best, his talented big brother.
ness believes kaiser, not him, is the magician: ness's case is more serious bc his family was (is?) emotionally abusive towards him. basically, like every other kid, ness believed in magic. the concept of magic is exciting for children and gives them, in the form of play, the opportunity to express their creativity and exercise their imagination; work out a way to make the impossible come true. bc this is so important for their development, usually its the parents role to, at least to a certain degree, keep alive the belief that magic is real. ness's parents, on the contrary, shut down this belief bc it didnt match with their own views. they saw his interests as a waste of time, even letting his sibilings bully him and treat him badly to make him give up on them. ness, however, didnt, and instead found a more socially acceptable way to 'do magic' and express his creativity: football. he feared greatly, however, that football would be taken away from him, so in that faithful match in which he met kaiser he decided to put all of his trust and hard work on him, bc ness believed kaiser was the person who would be able to make the impossible, the magic that ness wanted to create, happen. i think the key to unlock his full potential is stop relying on kaiser so much and start believing in his own magic (kind of like what happened in hiori's arc). we have yet to know kaiser's backstory but i have a feeling those two enable each other's worst traits...
ETC !!!! sorry i got tired of writing lol
anyways these r just my interpretations of the characters feel free 2 b like "was is she ON about"
