this is like twenty questions, i think i am understanding this now
DECO TEAMS VS BASKETBALL TEAMS HM well
first of all, Kuroko only has Teikou to compare any team with! And Teikou is a school where basically, winning is The Priority. What little he can glean from his memories shows him that (wow his captain is kind of scary) he's at a really prestigious school and they have to win - and he enjoys that and thinks that's pretty much the goal of basketball, and if he wins = he'll enjoy the game. But that's so different from Sage, because Sage is like WELL WE WANT TO WIN BUT WE VALUE OUR WELLBEINGS MORE and sometimes the two intersect, see: Dragon's game. And while yes, he does enjoy basketball and yes, he does enjoy winning! He can see the value in not wanting to sacrifice everything to win, and that losing is okay. (It helps that they're not playing basketball games, and that they're playing more dangerous games.) Still, Sage is like..... instead of a tightly-knit team (like Seirin) or instead of a singular-goal umbrella that everyone can sit under and fight like hell for team (like Teikou), Sage is more like roommates that don't really have either teamwork or a singular goal - moreover, Deco teams aren't really like that either, from Kuroko's perspective. Instead of just a "team", where they get together and accomplish something and break apart and have generally separate lives, they're more like "family", where sleepovers happen daily and they share meals together, but they're still not so close or dependent on each other that they'll be completely useless without each other and they can still accomplish things individually. Kuroko is much more close to Sage on a familial level than he is to Teikou (especially now), but at the same time, he's more independent because on Teikou, he's literally the most useless guy on the team save for his ~special ability~ that doesn't even work throughout the entire game AND HE KNOWS THAT, EVEN WITH LIKE ONLY FOUR MEMORIES HE KNOWS HOW USELESS HE IS BACK HOME and he's kind of glad everything isn't basketball because of it!
It's almost like Teikou!Kuroko fastforwarded to Winter Cup!Kuroko where he isn't so horribly dependent on either Aomine or Kagami as his "light" in order to be able to do anything at all, except the change didn't happen because Kuroko got sick of Teikou but because Sage was just the more appealing team in comparison.
LARK'S TOP 5 PEOPLE only like two can be from Celeste.
DO I NEED TO PUT THEM IN ORDER? I'm going to go ahead and not put them in order BUNNY MARCH ABSINTHE MERCURY PHANTOM :U if Phantom is cheating then in that case Mint instead of Phantom. this list would be the same even if I were allowed more Celestes...
REVERSE? you can do two lists one with Sages and one without Sages
as for where he frequents, he probably just kind of... wanders around...?? mostly he just hikikomoris in Celeste but when he does leave he probably doesn't have a particular destination in mind ever. maybe ends up frequenting the lower levels of the tower more than anywhere else though I guess.
he gets jittery and wants to hold the ball ): and when he feels like that, he goes out for a run around the gallery. He usually goes for a morning run, and then goes into the tower's basement to just
idk lie down on the court and absorb the energy there or sOMETHING more like he does... pretend!training and pretends to be holding a ball........
also, he reads a bit. '-'a LIBRARIES \o/ BOOKS \o/ he loves books, and although he hasn't been attempting to go back up lately (because of Sys's game) he will start again....
CELESTE, SAFFRON, FAWN, SHELL, TEAL, LILAC AND CARDINAL are the only ones that Kuroko............... really knows/cares about.............. so i guess the lists would look kind of like this:
because saffron/fawn/celeste are the teams with the people he REALLY DOKIS AT and then teal/cardinal/lilac are the teams he's GOT PEOPLE WHO HE DOKIS A LITTLE AT and also these are teams he's seen interact with shirayuki. shell is last because he doesn't really know anyone from there?!?! but elliot is boyfrandos with someone from shell so he keeps shell on the list.
FAVORITES...... AS A GENERAL WHOLE TEAM, IT'D BE JUST CELESTE -> EVERYONE ELSE because out of all the teams that he likes, it's more like just one or two people from each of those teams that he likes. but if we're taking the people he likes into account, it would look pretty much like the list above except shell wouldn't be on there because NOT KNOWING PEOPLE FROM SHELL....
but both these lists will rapidly change depending on which team Aomine ends up in, because then it will be THAT TEAM -> SAFFRON/FAWN/CELESTE -> TEAL/CARDINAL/LILAC -> SHELL. canonmates are Priority.
rank teams according to which teams lark would be Most Okay with throwing under the bus in a trauma/safe game
HE'S ONLY MET LIKE ONE SCARY PORTRAIT (DRAGON) and everyone else is p cool except??? sys??????? what are you doing to the gallery????????????
heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee is kind of. confused, by the portraits and also unsure about how he should feel when there are little girls for portraits too. but! he thinks he can get along with most of them, if not all of them (this is excluding dragon, he doesn't really know how he can deal with dragon and in order to be able to deal with dragon he'd probably have to be drunk)

I mean there's lots of magic AROUND but he can't really use it SO REALLY
WHAT HE MISSES IS BEING USEFUL TBH
he just kinda. associates that with magic.
RANK TEAMS ACCORDING TO KUROKO'S FAVORITES/PROTECTION PRIORITIES? in separate lists if applicable
no subject
Date: 2012-12-08 08:31 am (UTC)CELESTE, SAFFRON, FAWN, SHELL, TEAL, LILAC AND CARDINAL are the only ones that Kuroko............... really knows/cares about.............. so i guess the lists would look kind of like this:
PROTECTION PRIORITIES:
SAFFRON/FAWN/CELESTE -> TEAL/CARDINAL/LILAC -> SHELL
because saffron/fawn/celeste are the teams with the people he REALLY DOKIS AT and then teal/cardinal/lilac are the teams he's GOT PEOPLE WHO HE DOKIS A LITTLE AT and also these are teams he's seen interact with shirayuki. shell is last because he doesn't really know anyone from there?!?! but elliot is boyfrandos with someone from shell so he keeps shell on the list.
