Headcanon A:  realistic

 

Fai struggled in Yama.  Another world with chopsticks, Eastern-style armor, and other things he doesn’t know how to do, and this time he couldn’t even ask for help! Kurogane probably had to demonstrate how to put on the armor.  Repeatedly.

 

Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious

 

Sure, Fai was hiding his magic by saying “hyuuuuu” instead of whistling, but he also just kinda got to like saying it.  He’s not even trying to annoy Kurogane anymore, that’s just a bonus.  He likes the way it sounds.

 

Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends

 

On one hand, losing an eye pretty much does away with those moments of early-morning confusion when he looks into the mirror and thinks he’s seeing his twin staring back.  On the other, it tosses several of his plans for bringing the real Fai back out the window, because he absolutely refuses to subject his brother to living in a body he’s damaged.

 

Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.

 

They do make it to a world where there’s both a Fai and a Yui someday. Fai expected to be bitter, jealous, hit hard by grief–but instead, he’s just so grateful that he got to see this, and that there are versions of him and his brother somewhere who weren’t touched by tragedy.
