#01 – Ring
In the heat of their little playtime, Judal sees the "magi" surrounded in a ring of white light; it is a gentle glow, but for some reason, it is painful for him to look at it.
#02 – Hero
Despite what Ugo-kun told him in the Holy Palace, Aladdin thinks he is far from being the savior of the world as he watches Judal cry out in agony.
#03 - Memory
They are small shards of his broken childhood - the smiling faces of a mother and a father, a peaceful village, a ticklish warmth - but these things remind him that he lost to the fourth magi.
#04 - Box
When they meet again, it is as if Aladdin had opened a Pandora's Box; Judal is unforgiving and cruel, and he no longer wishes to play but to battle.
#05 – Run
Before his little legs could even move, a harsh hand grabs him by the wrist, pulling him up. Aladdin notices that the other magi is grinning.
#06 – Hurricane
When the Aladdin looks up to watch him with stormy blue eyes, Judal's grin falters.
#07 – Wings
"Aah. I don't feel like killing you anymore. Instead I'll just clip off your little wings and send you off to Kou empire. Let's play a lot there, hmm?"
#08 – Cold
The magoi restraints around his hands and ankles are heavy and cumbersome but they are nothing compared to the emptiness of his luxurious prison.
#09 – Red
Judal always visits when the sun dyes the sky orange, his eyes a piercing red as he pulls on the chains of his restraints.
#10 – Drink
As Aladdin slowly drinks in the atmosphere of the palace, Judal gleefully waits to see if the pure white of the boy's Rukh will change like his.
#11 – Midnight
When the next full moon rises, Judal goes to check on the boy because waiting has never been his strong point, but the Rukh floating around the sleeping boy is still irritatingly uncorrupt, a stark contrast to his midnight ones.
#12 – Temptation
The temptation to break out of this palace is strong, but the thought of endangering his friends leave him dry-mouthed and jittery; he wishes desperately that he has a friend here.
#13 – View
The room servants who take small pity on Aladdin gives him treats – little things like peaches and apples – but the sight of Aladdin's smiling face aggravates Judal, and he punches the servants across their face as he walks past them in the hall.
#14 – Music
When Aladdin finishes playing the flute his friend once resided in, he finds a bored Judal sprawled out on the top of the mattress, and when he comments that he plays like crap, Aladdin asks why he stayed to listen.
#15 – Silk
When the Emperor summons Aladdin to the banquet, he is bathed and dressed in pretty silky robes, but he is horrified to learn that they once belonged to Judal.
#16 – Cover
The black rukh in the banquet hall is suffocating, Aladdin almost gags, but a cold hand covers his eyes before the corruption overtakes him.
#17 – Promise
"Not yet, Chibi." Judal chuckles behind him, "I still haven't had my fun."
#18 – Dream
It's almost dream-like, the food, the dancers, and the laughter, but dreams aren't real, Aladdin reminds himself as he glance at the yawning Oracle beside him.
#19 – Candle
When the crowd dissolves and the candles dim, Judal doesn't forget to give Aladdin a smug grin before leaving – Aladdin hates to admit it, but the other magi had helped him.
#20 – Talent
Aladdin quickly learns that Judal has a talent for making him baffled and angry, and of course, Judal does not waste his talents.
#21 – Silence
There are rare moments of silence between them, not filled by taunts or shouts, and they just gaze at the evening sky.
#22 – Journey
Aladdin dreams of wonderful places, of precious friends, of adventures, but when he tries to run toward them, Judal appears and yanks him by his braid.
#23 – Fire
Judal thinks Aladdin is just like his element: warm, inviting yet dangerous all the same; even with this knowledge, he still reaches out.
#24 – Strength
Aladdin thinks Judal is like a lost child, he has lost his fated path and wonders around aimlessly, alone.
#25 – Mask
Sometimes their masks slip and reveal Aladdin, a boy who simply wants to find affection in the world, and Judal, a youth who can't grasp his reason for living.
#26 – Ice
"The ice is melting," Aladdin says absent-mindedly as he and Judal watch the winter end.
#27 – Fall
Aladdin laughs as he falls down on the pile of fresh leaves, and Judal is surprised to discover that the sound doesn't irritate him as it should.
#28 – Forgotten
He forgets the reason why he keeps Chibi around and becomes too immersed their little games.
#29 – Dance
Due to Judal's strong "insistence," they play tag in the pouring rain, but as they dance around the mud puddles for hours, the rain becomes something very trivial.
#30 – Body
His body is feverish and his mind is drifting in and out, but Aladdin distinctively recognizes the hand cooling his brow.
#31 – Sacred
"Some magi you are," Judal scoffs childishly as he plays with the sleeping boy's braid.
#32 – Farewells
When this playtime ends, what will happen to them?
#33 – World
"I want to understand this world," Aladdin looks up to meet his gaze, his wide blue eyes reflecting the summer's light like the surface of a calm lake, "I want to understand you too."
#34 – Formal
When summer begins, Aladdin is invited to a formal tea party, this one with the Empress of Kou Empire.
#35 – Fever
"I heard he had a fever. Poor thing is still young. I am sure he needs a gentle care of a mother." The Empress smiles at Judal, her eyes curving into pretty but dangerous slits.
#36 – Laugh
Judal laughs for a good while – it's just too rich coming from her – but in the dark corner of his mind, he is anxious.
#37 – Lies
"That tea party is just a big hoax. They are trying to get you," Judal says as he watches Aladdin faces changes but looks away when he realizes how ugly the fearful expression looks on the kid.
#38 – Forever
Aladdin's voice shakes a little as he tries to smile, "I did come to like playing with you. Although you probably wouldn't care. It's too bad that it couldn't last - …."
#39 – Overwhelmed
All kinds of emotions swell in Judal chest - anger, anxiety, pride, and vexation - and they make him grab Aladdin's wrist, hard enough to turn his knuckles white.
#40 – Whisper
"It doesn't have to."
#41 – Wait
Three days before the fateful tea party, they wait until the sun sets and jumps on Judal's magic carpet.
#42 – Talk
During the ride, Judal tells Aladdin about his past with Al Sermen, and Aladdin stays close and listens.
#43 – Search
Three Kou brothers and even Hakuei reject the Empress's order to conduct search for the two magi, all with a spiteful smile gracing their lips.
#44 – Hope
Even if he knows Al Sermen is after them, Judal feels strangely brave; what is this bright fire burning deep in his chest?
#45 – Eclipse
When they reach the outskirts of the desert, Judal surprises Aladdin with an agonizing shout and writhing only imaginable to dying persons; meanwhile, the black Rukh dance around them madly.
#46 - Gravity
Before the older boy tumbles out of the carpet, Aladdin hugs him tightly and falls down with him.
#47 – Highway
"It's okay now. You'll be okay. I will make sure your pain ends now. I will help you find the right path."
#48 – Unknown
As the white Rukh start to embrace the two, Aladdin closes his eyes and leans his forehead against Judal's.
#49 – Lock
Judal hears the lock in his head shatter and something overflows out of him – or maybe it is him that is freed.
#50 – Breathe
What he first sees when he opens his eyes is Aladdin's happy smile, and when he breathes out, he hears himself call out the boy's name.
"Aladdin."
I have no idea what this is. I am sorry. I am sorry fandom. I mean, I didn't mean to make this romantic, but in the end, it kind of turned out this way. I just hope it still has friendship, brother-like undertone I aimed for.
Also I wish people would write more about Aladdin because he is seriously complex character for a ten year old who likes to motorboat ladies with big boobs.
