Actor!Kaito au where Kaito has put down the mantle and became a great magician as himself but then decided to pursue other things alongside magic.
Kaito is notorious in the industry for never breaking character in front of the camera. Every single cast member could be breaking out in laughter and Kaito would just look into the camera with a deadpan stare. His co-actor is already on the floor dying of laughter but Kaito continues with his lines, even improvising which makes his co-actors laugh harder and everyone else in the room breaks. He's always in the blooper reels but it's never him making the mistake. It's always his co-stars in tears, choking, and out of breath.
It's not like he doesn't smile when everyone's practically breaking their backs laughing. But he doesn't just smile, he grins. There's a twinkle of mischief in his eyes and playfulness on the upturn of his lips. Because, ah! Of course this is a game to him, of course. Kuroba Kaito commands you into a fit of giggles and considers it his win.
After a while, it becomes some sort of challenge to try and make Kuroba Kaito break out of character, to make him laugh. On shoots, his co-stars will try and fail every time. This man is unflappable.
But there's one man who also wanted to challenge the great Kuroba Kaito. Always had, even when he was tiny and less than half his age.
Kaito seems pretty smug about the whole thing so Shinichi decides to show up on set one day with no warning, determined to wreck havoc.
He was sooo gonna mess with Kaito.

shit shinichi does whilst directly in kaito's eyesight while he's filming:
puts on that one blue sweater kaito loves to see him in (cause it makes shinichi look soft and it makes his eyes pop, but most importantly, because that sweater belongs to kaito).
starts sucking a lollipop. it's sweet but it's also coffee-flavored. he came prepared. kaito, however, was not.
blatant eye-fucking, real sultry, seeing kaito flub his lines unexpectedly turns him on, he's gonna visit sets more often.
lots of lip biting and lip licking. are his lips dry and cracked? yes. is he gonna keep biting and licking anyway? if the way kaito can't stop staring at him continues then of course he's gonna keep doing it.
winks at kaito. actually winks at him. kaito trips over air.
drops something behind him accidentally which leaves him no choice but to turn around and bend over. kaito actually chokes.
--
When Kaito walks up to him red-faced, supposedly annoyed, but looking more begrudgingly pleased, Shinichi knows that Kaito knows exactly what he's doing.
Shinichi summons his best Conan act and cutely feigns ignorance. Kaito is sulky but the pout is cute. He understands now why Kaito loves to pull shit like this on him.
He decides he's gonna do it more.
He brings out the banana.

(alternate version under the cut lol warning it’s corny)
there was a different version of shinichi making kaito laugh lol
it’s still about kaito being an unflappable man but this time shinichi doesn’t purposely make him laugh.
anyways, i wanted them to laugh at something stupid that kaito’s chuckles carry over to the scene he’s filming
kaito is filming overseas and shinichi is on a visit. they’re in his waiting room where kaito practices his lines and shinichi reads a book. kaito has a line where he goes, “...his chin caught...” or something like that and shinichi snorts out of nowhere, trying to stop his giggles but ultimately fails.
kaito asks whats so funny and shinichi still can’t stop laughing.
he then reveals that the line sounded like “chinko” or dick and it made shinichi laugh
it’s so dumb and stupid but shinichi has been hearing english everywhere for days and suddenly he hears kaito say something that sounds like ‘dick.’ he just couldn’t help but laugh.
kaito looks at him unimpressed. doesn’t particularly finds it as funny as shinichi does but seeing shinichi laugh so heartily pulls the giggles out of him easily.
later on when kaito is finally filming the scene, he gets to the ‘dick’ line and he can see from his peripheral vision that shinichi is trying to stifle his laugh. kaito is caught off guard and he can’t fight off the giggles suddenly bursting out of him. oh he is fucked.
they try some more takes but kaito cannot stop laughing. can’t even start the line without bursting into laughter anymore. shinichi is dying trying to hide but can’t help his laughter.
“SHINICHI! I’M SERIOUS, STOP IT!!” Kaito yells as he tries to stifle his laughter and profusely apologizes to the director and his co-actors.
“O-okay..pfft- sorry! I’m leaving now.” He leaves giggling all the way out.
Kaito can’t help but smile.
(This alternate version was cause I watched this compilation from Uramichi Oniisan where miyano’s character was laughing at dumb dick puns and it made me think of kaishin doing the same. just kaishin laughing at dumb things and inconveniencing the entire staff lol)

What is the relationship between Naera and Miryah?
Short answer: toxic af lmao. Longer answer: It’s bad, but they don’t hate each other. In fact, Naera and Myriah’s whole relationship is built on love and rotted by the world around them! Myriah loves her daughter, and so wants her to be safe- therefore, she can’t let Naera stumble or ruin her life in a court that’s cruel at best and downright murderous at worst, and so doesn’t let Naera indulge in activities or behaviours she wants to participate in.
Naera meanwhile loves her mother, but is too prideful to understand that Myriah not taking any of her bs isn’t her mom being particularly cruel over things her brothers could get away with. Therefore she gets angry at Myriah specifically, and so resents her whenever she can’t resent Daeron. All in all- it’s a bit… Complicated, but ngl a lot of mother-daughter relationships are lol

in the universe where mtl went on longer i would’ve killed to see an episode of sorts where they talk to/interview background people/side characters. like besides one time villains (tho i mean y’all know me i’d love to see a rikki comeback) i mean like. recurring people you see in the background.
set the episode up like this: a documentary crew wants to make a doc about dethklok and the effect they’ve had on the world. the whole episode is framed through the lens of a camera. a part of making that doc would be talking to people who are consistently at whatever event the band is at. get their side of the story. i wanna hear from survivors from the duncan hills incidents, or nathan’s reign as governor. hell, get magnus on there for a minute. perhaps the episode could end with them actually getting a chance to interview dethklok themselves (presumably dying at the end ofc; the screen fades to black with text talking about how someone else “found the footage” and put together the film in their place)
it’d just be a fun way to see favorite recurring designs as well as give the overall world itself more depth. interviewing any villains that still lived would also be fun like i said, but i see this more as an opportunity to focus on the everyday person in the world of mtl.
