he's never summoned ra before, so it would be very experimental for him! he'd be pretty easy to goad into it because he wants to be Cool and Powerful... he's kind of a dope in that regard. that being said, dumb accidents with summoning are very, very possible. again, he has the means the summon ra, he's just never had a reason to try it.

possibly depending on what the next event is like, that would be a good excuse for him to try to show off? if not, well, again he'd be pretty easy to rile up to the point where he'd try it.

development wise im kinda muddling around at the moment! i think regardless of how we do it, i can get a memory from this (he and bakura kinda fucked up big time summoning ra) so i'm definitely getting something out of this! malik is just in an awkward stage where he's not totally bad anymore but also not... good...
