#trophy clone

So I think for the scenario to work Red Son definitely has to know it’s a clone, but whether or not he knows it’s a clone right away is a different matter. He could have kidnapped one of MK’s clones during a battle in which case it’d be pretty obvious it’s not the real MK and he could behave as such from the start, with his intention being to use clone MK for practice from the very beginning. However, it could also be fun if Red Son is planning to kidnap MK, y’know in standard demon courting style, and accidentally yoinks one of MK’s clones who is out and about doing MK’s chores or whatever he happens to need a clone for that day.

If Red Son thinks it’s the real MK at first, maybe he does his whole confession speech to the clone and just waits for a reaction. Trophy Clone is like, “oh uh... yeah that sure was something dude. Listen, I’m not MK tho and I was in the middle of some chores so can you let me go?”

This is obviously disappointing and also a little embarrassing because he grabbed some clone and not the actual Monkie Kid, but also HEY he practiced that speech a lot and that’s the only reaction this stupid clone can give him? Was it at least good? Does he have some feedback??

Trophy Clone is kind of paying attention but mostly just wants to go back to his chores though, because the clones are kinda made with a purpose in mind and they tend to get really focused on that purpose the longer they exist. This is the reason that no matter how much Red Son tries, he can’t get the reaction he wants out of the clone.. he just won’t listen to his words of love or accept his affection. It drives Red Son deep into despair, because he thinks the clone is basically a copy of MK and doesn’t know that they tend to differ in personality.. so if he see that this MK is disregarding him like this, then the real MK would probably behave the same.
