when you’re a kid and you’re feeling weird and detached and you fall asleep in the late afternoon with school clothes still on and you wake up and its dark and dinner is almost done and time feels like a thick jelly

HIS OWN FATHER….

*Toa Jaller and Toa Hahli, beating the shit out of Velika for trying to kill his friends and take over the world.*

Turaga Vakama: “Stop, both of you! He’s defeated. Let the Order lock him away. I know you are angry, but think of what Matoro say if he could see you now!”

Ghost of Matoro standing off to the side, cheering them on: “Hit him again!”

Two of a Kind

At some point, Velika is going to run across Kapura and panic because he’s 99% sure that he’s another Great Being that decided to download himself into a Matoran body. Kapura is certainly off for a Ta-Matoran, a weird guy who can teleport, speak in an odd manner, and seems to be playing a part in every major event in the Matoran Universe. 

Velika panics (oh shit, Oh Shit OHSHITOHSHITOHSHIT) because if it is another Great Being, how much does he know and can he interfere with the plan? He can’t kill Kapura outright without being sure, too much risk of attracting attention and spoiling his takeover plans. 

Velika spends months nervously walking up to Kapura and hinting about old projects and plans only another Great Being would know about. Kapura never gives a yes or no answer to anything and often switches topics to the weather or some wise advice from the Turaga. Occasionally he gives unnervingly accurate answers to whatever riddle or tale Velika spouts out.

Velika becomes increasingly more paranoid of Kapura and obsesses over new ways to prove he is actually a Great Being. He becomes convinced that every setback in his plans is orchestrated by Kapura because something he said weeks prior somehow ties into each event. By the time the other Great Beings track him down and haul him away, he’s a shaking, eye-twitching mess that spends all his time babbling paranoid nonsense about Kapura. 

The other Great Beings can’t be certain he isn’t one of their numbers either, many went missing around the time of the Core War and were never accounted for. 

All of Kapura’s friends who see the exchanges don’t have any idea what’s happening but are just happy he seems to have found a friend who shares his odd mannerisms.
