There’s a part of me that wants to write Joshua and Rhyme fanfiction again (but not as a pairing).
Because, listen: I think us Joshyme fans were onto something, back in the day, in thinking these two would be good for each other in some ways. Because, yeah: Sunshine Girl Rhyme always saying positive things would probably help out this jaded god. But Joshua would actually show Rhyme that some people aren’t worth it? And to not be naïve and let herself be taken advantage of? It works. It works well, imo.
I think the only thing you need to watch out for, was when we were accidentally making Rhyme too perfect and a Mary-Sue.
But there are definitely reasons you could write Joshua and Rhyme interacting, imo, since he brought her back to life when he really didn’t have to (since she lost the Game). And many theorize that Rhyme comes back to life without her dreams (since she didn’t win), and I’ve at least read one fic where she confronted Joshua for that reason.
And in Dream Drop Distance, Rhyme seems to like Joshua. And Joshua insults all the guys in that game (Sora, Riku, Neku, and Beat), but not the girls (Shiki and Rhyme).
There’s also that part in Another Day when Joshua figures out that Rhyme’s the spy, and she says she knew that he was the smart one. LOL
