#8) the talk (though tbh i don't really think it 'counts' for these purposes; it's just part of season of courtship)

[anghraine]

My daily kudos digest always brightens my day (upside of having written so many fics even if I haven't posted or updated anything on AO3 only started a WIP on DW, shh in a year). However, kudos on shorter fics I'm personally very fond of, but which aren't my "major" fics in terms of popularity, are always particularly nice and today was like... a red-letter kudos day :D

20 Fic Writer Questions

@dreamwatch tagged me and I have been so slammed at work but the show is open now and am able to look at my tags.

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

11!

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

146,941

3. What fandoms do you write for?

On this account its been Stranger Things, Baldur's Gate 3 and Critical Role - because we're sticking to a Dungeons and Dragons adjacent theme completely not on purpose.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

UNTITLED RECORDING rcd ca. 1987-1988 ANACRUSIS ca. 1987 head line sunflower broke wait, runner

5. Do you respond to comments?

I sincerely try to! I get them pretty infrequently so I'm always so tripping over myself to say something in response and surely sound like a total dipshit when I do. I know there are a few in my inbox I haven't responded to yet because work has my free time in a vice grip at the moment.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Oh surely dog at the door - the ending was always intended to be vague and open to interpretation but I cannot imagine any good faith interpretation to the ending is like. good. Runner up is probably of or pertaining to the body, which only takes the runner up status because its an elaboration on canon events that are objectively harrowing, versus with dog where I have engineered speculative misery for the express purpose of being miserable.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

head line, I think, is my only published fic with an unambiguously optimistic ending. I think there's been hope and happiness in my other fics, but not without caveats or as of yet unaddressed emotional complication in the futures of those stories. idk does that even make sense?

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not so far as I know but who knows, maybe there are corners of the internet talking mad shit what do I know?

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I have said it before and I will say it again, I feel like one of my greatest failings as a writer is my inability to write smut without cringing myself inside out. I just don't think I'm any good at it. Smut lives in my heart though.

10. Do you write crossovers?

I suppose it depends on what one's definition of a crossover is? Like where's the line between an AU and a crossover? One time I wrote a DnD ST AU that includes no established WotC DnD NPCs but all of its world building, is that a crossover? Or does a crossover only constitute as a crossover as a matter of disparate series characters interacting? I have questions.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

lmao aint no on reading my business I cannot imagine anyone would be so moved to do so

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I don't believe so, but I also haven't looked into it.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I've definitely worked on collaborative projects before, they all exist in various states of planning or semi-publication or DM hollering. I enjoy it, its like playing toys with your friends.

14. What's your all-time favorite ship?

It really depends what I'm in the mood for? Vibes wise lol? I have a handful of ships that I constantly rotate around in my brain like a rotisserie chicken that re-enter the hyperfocus zone on a semi regular schedule. Ask my about my forevergirl ships.

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?

lol could be any of them tbh

16. What are your writing strengths?

lmao lol even I'm so bad at self praise this is a nightmare. I like to think I have a deft hand with character voice, I like to think my writing feels generally grounded, lived in?

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I really lack rigor, I think, when it comes to writing. I get discouraged by writers block very easily, I make it very easy for myself to walk away from a project. Which, I know isn't inherently a bad thing - some things just don't work out, or you don't have the time for that kind of commitment etc - but I often feel like there is a necessary momentum that I lose that just makes my creative endeavors just stagnate and I really struggle to manufacture that momentum for myself when it starts to diminish.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I think it depends, I think there are contexts where it's appropriate and contexts where its inappropriate. For me it boils down to like, one's ability to use the language authentically and grammatically, if the language being potentially inscrutable to the reader is part of the need of the use of another language - textually, does it feel authentic to the way multi-lingual speakers communicate, etc etc etc.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

I think the first fic I wrote with the intent of public consumption was KHR? I think?

20. Favorite fic you've written?

Hm. This answer changes from time to time depending on how I'm feeling about my work in general, but I think right now sunflower broke is holding that top slot. It got me back into writing, it made me realize how much fun writing Eddie's character was for me, the themes that sort of preoccupy me about him floated to the surface there. Just a little scratch of the surface with that one.

[thenightisland]

fic writer Q&A thing for @tragediegh under the cut bc it's long as my answers to things always are lol

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

2 on my rote account, 21 on the other, so 23 total

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

across both accounts: 274,901 (47,220 in rote, 227,681 on the other one)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

realm of the elderlings at the moment, but i was writing for sherlock as recently as this spring (i feel like that explains a lot about me tbh lol)

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

the sherlock ones are redacted for the purposes of this post, and i only have the two rote ones, a safe place in the world and no other homeland.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

i try to and largely fail lol. i am bad at publicly interacting for some reason. i will talk at length to people in DMs but otherwise i mostly lurk. even the few responses i've given on rote pieces greatly outnumber all the times i've responded to comments on my other account. i never know what to say to people. but i keep every comment i get saved in a file bc they make me feel better and i read through them a lot. @commenters i promise i'm not ignoring you to be standoffish i'm just Bad At It but i love you all so much

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

i don't tend to write anything that doesn't have a happy ending. in rote it's a guarantee even if there's some suffering along the way, and in my sherlock days i spent years primarily as a fluff writer so even before i expanded into longer more serious projects the happy endings were always the point for me.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

rote wise technically only one of them /has/ an ending. but in general my endings are always happy and i'm not sure how to rate one happiness over another.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

despite being involved in fic since 2012, i have dodged that bullet

9. Do you write smut? If so what kind?

not really. i hate writing it lol if something i write has a sex scene in it, it's going to usually be blurry and impressionistic and is mostly a vehicle for a specific chunk of dialogue or internal monologue that i wanted to include. it's an ordeal to write. those scenes take literally 4-6 times longer to write than any others. miserable.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

crossovers no but i love me an au.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

not that i know of

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

oh yeah several. mostly into chinese and russian for whatever reason.

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

no and i wouldn't even know where to start. i'm such a solitary creator lol

14. What’s your all-time favourite ship?

i write for exactly two fandoms i'll leave you to your deductions lol. my first pairing that i was obsessed with enough to now label a ship was armand&daniel from the vampire chronicles though (there's a reason my name is thenightisland)

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

i don't really have any active WIPs when it comes to fic (original stuff is a whole other can of worms). i usually can only focus on one thing at a time, but the other day i stumbled across some notes from like six years ago for a bbcs sound of music au that i would like to get back to eventually.

16. What are your writing strengths?

for rote i've been told i do a good job with characterization and imitating hobb's style and tone. based on the yelling i get on both accounts i'm good at closing lines. in every piece i just want to write That One Line that i know will make people feel crazy. i'd like to think i'm good at writing dialogue. everything i write both in fic and original stuff is built around conversations i want the characters to have and it's my favorite thing to write.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

sensory/physical details/set dressing. i get very in the character's head and disregard the surroundings in favor of internal monologue. i know that's because i'm a very internally focused person and so often wander around totally unaware of stuff outside myself (it's the autism lol). which means in writing i'm more willing to gloss over anything i deem irrelevant to whatever is happening emotionally between the people talking. the end result is there are certain details i draw attention to while disregarding everything else. (what color are the clothes? unless it's symbolically relevant, no idea. what are they eating? who knows. what does the room look like outside of the corner they're in? it's a mystery.) i am also the worst about what i dubbed "crutch words" where i'll get hung up on a certain word or phrase and overuse it.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

i've never done it and could probably only manage some bad french

19. First fandom you wrote for?

sherlock lol

20. Favourite fic you’ve ever written?

this may be recency bias but i really like the stuff i've written for rote lol. similarly there was a sherlock fic that i started back in 2017 and was posting as i wrote it and then just. stopped and didn't come back to it until 2022 when i looked back over it and was like wait i like this (this is also why i don't start posting stuff until it's 80%+ complete already, to avoid that ever happening again lol). it was a book length fic and incredibly self indulgent and it's still one of my favorite things i've written. but rote fics allow me to do more with the actual prose bc there isn't the expectation of that specific Fic Tone in the writing and there isn't the weird loathing most fandoms have for first person pov so i'm very fond of my rote stuff.

20 fanfic questions

Tagged by @otterandterrier for this one!

How many works do you have on AO3?

27

2. What's your total AO3 words count?

247,251

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Star Wars

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Purpose of Heritage (140) Every Version of You (83) Collateral (80) Tell Your Sister (71) Confirmed by Sources Close to the Subject (68)

Some of this was actually really surprising -- I did not know a one-shot had edged ahead of Collateral on the kudos front (and I definitely would not have expected that one-shot to be Every Version of You).

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I try to! I think the earliest comments on my first fic never got replies because I didn't know what I was doing exactly, but I do try to respond at least on AO3. I know leaving comments takes effort, and I genuinely appreciate them so much, and I like talking to people about stuff I've written. So...it seems like a good thing to do.

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Oof, it would probably be Collateral if I hadn't added the epilogue, but I did, and that epilogue is angsty af but it also ends on a rising note, so I don't think it fully counts. So, that being said, I think it's actually one of my more recent ones: Entirely Shattered. Everything's broken at the end of that one. And, like, we know it'll be fine eventually, but they sure don't.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I think several fit the bill, but my favorite of those is Confirmed by Sources Close to the Subject

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Not so far. The only objectively negative comment I've received is someone who is actually really angry with JJ Abrams and/or Rian Johnson and just decided I was a good outlet for that via anonymous guest comment on FFN. Also, I'm like 90% sure that comment was left by one of my regular readers over on FFN due to some weird circumstances surrounding it and overall vibes, and if that's the case, they're still reading and commenting even after that negative comment was left so...whatever. Otherwise, I've not really received hate. A couple that have been like...passive-aggressive unsolicited concrit, if there exists such a thing, but meh.

9. Do you write smut. If so what kind?

Nope, not something I'm into.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?

I don't, and I don't read them either. I hesitate to say "never" because you never know what sort of inspiration might strike, but I don't think I'll ever write a crossover.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not to my knowledge, but I've only been posting for like...10 months

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Not to my knowledge

13. Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

I haven't, and I'm honestly not even sure how that works logistically speaking tbh.

14. What's your all-time favourite ship?

I mean. C'mon. (Han/Leia obviously. Though in revisiting The Hunger Games this year, I have a new appreciation for Peeta/Katniss)

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I'm not like...throwing in the towel on this one, but I have a WIP called Macabre that I had originally started for Han/Leia Appreciation Week and it got replaced by Brief Shadow for the "Anniversary" prompt. The whole concept is this idea that Han and Leia celebrate the anniversaries of every time they should have died but didn't -- there's a whole backstory baked in as to how this started and how they even have the dates recorded to do this in the first place (Leia has a calendar, obviously) -- and everyone around them thinks it's kind of a, well, macabre tradition, but it's like a post-war, coping-with-humor thing for them. The problem is I spent a decent amount of time setting up the backstory and how they sort of accidentally stumbled into celebrating an anniversary the first time, and then I simply didn't know where to go from there. I do think the concept has promise, and I really like what I've written so far (I've posted multiple snippets here! Because I was so sure it would be finished and posted in August!), so I won't say never. But I seriously don't know where to go with this. (Like, honestly, if anyone has any interest in giving it a read and making suggestions, I'm game.)

16. What are your writing strengths?

I have been repeatedly told that I stay true to the characters' voices, which is really important to me, so I hope that's true. And, like, if I capture the right vibe, I can write some kind of heartbreaking gut punches.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I have a hard time writing things that are not angsty but are earnest. Like, earnest fluff. People actually saying their feelings straight-out. Anything like that. I feel like I need to talk about this in therapy or something.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

Ah...I think as long as you do your research, it can be fine? I don't really do this, though.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Okay, full-circle moment because I forget about this, but I just remembered it recently. I usually say that the first fandom I wrote for was Left Behind: the Kids and that is the first fandom I posted anything for. But, but, the first time I entered a Star Wars phase, I found out fanfiction was a thing, and before my 11-year-old self was exposed to some racy Trip to Bespin fic that scarred me and made me scared to look for fanfiction (this was the late '90s. The Internet was the Wild West and I don't think people were rating their fics, or at least not in a way that was clear to me. I had no real way to avoid running into stuff I didn't want to see, at least not that I knew of), I had actually started writing a little story that I was going to submit to some fansite I found. I remember nothing of it except it took place on Endor the morning after the Battle of Endor and Han had asked Leia to marry him. I actually don't even think I had a plot fleshed out. I just really wanted Han and Leia to get married. I mean, girl, same. When I say they're my OTP, they are my OTP.

20. Favourite fic you've ever written?

Complete dark horse moment here, but I realized today, that I actually think it's Brief Shadow. Like, I do think Purpose of Heritage is going to hold a special place in my heart if it doesn't drive me insane first, but I packed a lot into less than 800 words for Brief Shadow and I'm really proud of how it turned out.

I think everyone I'd tag got tagged by @otterandterrier (thanks for the tag!), but if you want to participate, please do! These are fun.

[buttered-ghost-toast]

Listen, if you don't fill out all of those numbers and tell me everything about your MC I'm going to feel robbed

Oh geez, fam! ...aight. That took me a minute. But below you will find out more about my girl, Niri! 

1.      What is their favourite food?—

Cheeseburgers and carrots. 

2.       Do they have a fear of an animal? If so, what animal? –

Not a fan of snakes, lizards, frogs, sharks.

3.       What do they wear to bed? –

Shorts and a t-shirt. Sometimes nothing at all!! That had to stop when she moved into the HoL though. Brothers poppin’ in at all hours gettin’ an eyeful. Lucifer was upset. 

4.       Do they like cuddling?—

1000000000%. Niri’s a big ol’ cuddle bug. Asmo’s all about it. So is Beel. 

5.       Do they have a secret handshake with anyone? -- With Astaroth. It’s quite elaborate and they only ever do it when they decide to get up to trouble.

 6.       What do they look like? – 

She cute if I may say so myselffff (don’t judge me, she’s a self insert hah!) Mid to slightly above average height for a human female, fairly toned. Brown eyes, mid-back length hair that’s brown at the root, fades to a teal and purple under layers. Sometimes her hair will fade to a light yellowy-green. She has the hookup for dye from Barbatos who likes to procure things for her from the human realm. She also has quite a few tattoos.

 7.       Do they like chocolate? –

Only dark. She’s allergic to additives in certain milk chocolates so she doesn’t eat it much. 

 8.      What are their good and bad traits?

Good: Helpful, kind, encouraging, quite a hard worker in any task given her.

Bad: Easily swept up into trouble by others, will prioritize naps over other stuff sometimes, awfully flirtatious which gets her in hot water with Lucifer because apparently lesser demons keep poppin’ by the house with gifts also HUMAN, DID YOU REALLY JUST SAY THAT TO LORD DIAVOLO?! Oopsssssss~ Also, you know how Luci’s always doing the “MAAAAMMMOOOONNNNN…”…yeah, that’s almost always followed by “NIIIIIRIIIIIIIIII….”

 9.      Do they have any artistic talent?

Yes. She’s a musician so there’s that…and she likes to paint.

10.  What is their favourite room to be in, in the house they live in?

She likes the music room since the boys tend to spend quite a bit of time in there together, but she’s usually found in the kitchen making loads of food and baked goods…also, that’s where you’re more likely to find Beel, and she reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally likes Beel.

11.  Do they believe in luck?

To an extent. She believes that luck exists, but she thinks relying on it is a bit naïve.

12.  Can they do magic?

Like pull a rabbit out of a hat type thing? Yes. She picked up a few little tricks here and there from a friend who loves show magic. Def not the real stuff though.

13.  Do they believe in dragons?

She didn’t until she went to the Devildom. Not that they just have dragons hangin’ out all willy-nilly, but she’s heard stories from the brothers and others about dragons.

 14.  What is a pet peeve of theirs?

Rudeness and liars who don’t give up even after they’ve been caught in the lie. Also people who demand things of others as if they’re property and not living beings with feelings …this isn’t about Belphegor at all. Nope. She doesn’t have issues with him still.

15.  What was the last thing they cried about?

She was able to talk to all her bandmates at once for her weekly call home. They all just really miss each other, ok? It sucks that she has to lie to them about where she is because she knows they’re worried about her, but it was just nice to hear their voices.

16.  What is their sexuality?

Pan.

17.  Do they have a best friend? If so, who, and what makes them their best friend?

We’ll narrow this down to the Devildom. Niri gets along with everyone and literally loves all the beings she’s met and knows she could count on them for most anything, but there’s definitely a more solid feeling to her connection with Beelzebub. They sort of just get to be vulnerable and entirely open with one another and there is never judgement or ill will, even when Beel eats her secret snack stash…again.

 She’s kind of getting to that point with Astaroth as well, but she can sense he’s still a little guarded in certain aspects, and she’s not going to push.

18.  Have they ever been in a romantic relationship?

Yes, quite a few. It’s not her favorite thing to talk about since she’s been quite unlucky in that aspect, but hey, the past is the past.

19.  What does their relationship with their family look like? Are they close? Distant? Ect.

Her actual family family (with the exception of her brother) are not close in the least. They’re sort of barely on speaking terms. Her chosen family (comprised of her band and some of the closest staff) is extremely close.

20.  Do they have a pet?

No. She loves animals and had a dog up until recently, but they passed. It’s okay though, they had a good long life and it wasn’t painful for them when it happened.

21.  Do they have a familiar?

Nope. Non-magical.

22.  Are they a supernatural being?

Nope! “Boring” human, but she does seem to always find herself in weird situations that are sorta paranormal.

23.  How do they usually wear their hair?

It really just depends on the day. If she had time to work on it, it’s down and straight. If it’s a rush in the morning (read: fight for the bathroom because Beel won’t MOVE) she’ll toss it in a bun or ponytail depending on how hot it is outside. There are the odd days when she’ll just let it vibe in its natural wavy/curly state, but she kind of got fed up with the brothers calling her a sheep because it’s so fluffy.

24.  Can they play an instrument? If so, what instrument and what can they play?

Yes! She learned guitar and bass at a young age and was tinkering with drums before she was whisked away to the Devildom.

25.  What type a high schooler are/were they?

She was the quiet weird kid that didn’t quite fit in with the weird weird crowd, but also wasn’t popular. Plenty of people knew her or of her, but she mainly stuck with her group of friends and was nice to everyone.

26.  Have they ever been in a physical fight before? If so, with who? Who won?

Yes. Just small bits of violence. No one of import, tbh. But there was that one time they all went out to party at the fall and Mammon and Levi started teasing her and in her drunken state, Niri went to punch Mammon who managed to duck so she hit Levi square in the nose. He was fiiiiiiine.

27.  What is their favourite holiday?

Halloween because it’s fun, Christmas because of the togetherness, and EASTER BECAUSE MARSHMALLOW PEEPS!

 28.  If they could have one wish, what would they wish for?

A pass to go from the Devildom to the Human realm and back whenever she wants forever.

 29.  Do they wants kids? If they already have kids, do they want more?

No. Never.

 30.  Do they have a job?

Yes? Being a singer in a band is a job, right? It doesn’t always feel like a job because it’s awesome, but it’s a job.

 31.  Do they know how to drive?

Yes. She has convinced Mammon to let her drive his car on a few occasions and every time they get back he swears NEVER AGAIN. She a little speed demon.

 32.  Do they get stressed out easily?

Funny story, actually…YES. But she is pretty good at not letting it show. So on the outside she’s like la-la-la~ but inside it’s all AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~~

 33.  Did they ever dye their hair before? If so, to what colour? Did they like it?

Absolutely lol. Niri has gone through a few colors in her life, but her favorite is and always will be the teal. (Fun fact: the purple came from a happy accident a few years back when she dyed over a pink shade and a layer turned out purple. She liked it so now she does it that way on purpose.)

 34.  Have they ever broken the law?

Never anything egregious, but she’s gotten tickets for stuff in the human world. Disturbing the peace, speeding, she was fined once (along with her bandmates) for a surprise free show they did in front of a train station which got a lot more attention than they were expecting and wound up shutting down a couple city blocks. Oooooooooopsss~

 35.  Do they own a plant?

She’s really bad with plants. REALLY bad. She was gifted a plant by Simeon a couple weeks into the exchange program and it took an embarrassingly long time for her to notice it was a fake plant…since he knows she sucks at keeping things alive.

 36.  Have they ever rode a horse before?

Once, and it was a terrifying experience so she just keeps her distance now.

 37.  What is their favorite gif?

anything featuring Titus Andromedon.

 38.  Do they get along with others easily?

 She tries to. It’s not always possible, but she tries, dammit!

 39.  Do they have any tattoos?

Several, yes. One arm sleeve done, starting the other arm, both thighs have massive pieces on them and both ribs done as well. There are also a few small things on her fingers and back.

 40.  If I wanted to draw them, what would be distinct physical features that I would have to know to draw them correctly?

Lotta hair. Looooooottttta hair. And heavily winged eyeliner. Big lashes.

 41.  What is their favourite breed of dog?

Huskies. They’re just so cute and sassy! And perfectly sized!! Great cuddle buddies and fun to run with!

 42.  Do they live with anyone? If so, who?

Not in the human world, but she’s got 7 kinda irritating roomies in the Devildom!

 43.  Where is their dream vacation?

She’s traveled extensively, so there isn’t anywhere she dreams of going that she hasn’t already seen. Her favorite place is anywhere mountainous and lush.

 44.  Do they know more than one language?

Yep. Niri’s a language nerd. Because she likes to speak to fans and stuff, she has set it on herself to learn as many languages as she can. She’s not perfectly fluent in all of them, but it’s a good handful that she can hold a full conversation in. She and Satan like to practice with one another around the house, despite complaints from the others.

 45.  Are they a quick learner?

Depends. Most things, yes…..math and processes requiring math, NO.

 46.  Have they ever won a contest before? If so, what for? What did they win?

No, she’s not really the luck having type.

 47.  If the world were to end in 24 hours, where would they be and who would they be with?

Probably hugging Beel. They hug often. They’re kinda always together. It’s gross according to Leviathan and Belphegor.

 48.  What does their room look like?

She didn’t change much in the room she was given at the HoL. Just added her fake plant from Simeon and a few human things…she actually got the “Hang in There” kitty poster just for kicks. Lucifer hates it.

 49.  If they could have an extinct animal for a pet, what would they have?

A dodo bird. Because they’re weird and cool.

 50.  If they got called out by someone, what would they do?

Laugh and argue probably. Depends what they’re calling her out on.

51.  Have they ever shot a gun before?

Yep. Actually enjoys shooting, it’s a fun stress reliever. She makes a point to drop by shooting ranges every once in a while back home.

 52.  Have they ever been axe throwing?

Once at a renaissance festival on an odd week of downtime. She didn’t do so well. The throwing was fine, but she never hit the target. Just be glad she didn’t hit a person either!

 53.  What is something that they want but can’t have?

At the moment, all the people she loves in one place.

 54.  Do they know how to fish?

Nope! She’s a mess with that kind of thing. Also, she doesn’t like the idea of fishing for anything herself. It makes her cry to think of the fish on the hook :<.

 55.  What is something they always wanted to do but too scared?

Hmm…Niri tries to live her life in a way that she won’t have regrets, so even if something is scary, she’ll pluck up the courage to do it. But…she still hasn’t jumped out of a plane.

 56.  Do they own their own baby pictures?

Absolutely not. She cringes thinking of the outfits her parents used to put her in, so she did her best to keep those kinds of things buried and acts like they never existed. Nope. Was never a baby. Nope.

 57.  What makes them standout among others?

Niri is a pro at pretending she’s confident, so she tends to draw attention when she walks in a room like she owns the place. Also her hair is kinda bright.

 58.  Do they like to show off?

Not really. She’s flamboyant in a sense, but she doesn’t go out of her way to call attention or to be center stage…heh.

 59.  What is their favourite song?

She can never pick, honestly. There are so many songs that are so amazing!

 60.  What would be their dream vehicle?

That’s a very good question. Probably something sitting in her garage back home. Probably being driven by one of her bandmates. Because hey, what are friends for?

 61.  What is their favourite book?

Not that she isn’t a big reader, but she doesn’t really get the time to enjoy books. There’s always something that needs attention or someplace to be and she’s required to engage, so focusing on a book or story is hard, but she’s a fan of classic novels, poetry, and Greek tragedies are always good!

 62.  Who, in their opinion, makes the best food?

She likes everything Barbatos makes and thinks Luke’s desserts are fantastic, but there’s something about a human recipe that just warms her heart, so…..herself. Lol.

 63.  Are they approachable?

Absolutely! If you can get past her intimidating resting face.

 64.  Did they ever change their appearance?

Not drastically, but she has gone through a few different phases until settling on a good one.

65.  What makes them smile?

The silliness of those around her. Thinking of good memories with family/friends. Puppies.

 66.  Do they like glowsticks?

Yes. She has a stockpile of glowsticks that the brothers keep adding to.

 67.  What is something that is simple, but always makes them smile?

Watching the brothers bicker, even if it’s getting out of hand. It reminds her of her friends and how they always pick on one another.

 68.  Are they a day or night person?

Night, usually. Not that she dislikes the daytime, but day usually has so much stuff to be done whereas night is the fun stuff that doesn’t need a schedule.

 69.  Are they allergic to anything?

Some milk chocolate, bell peppers, and certain devildom plants.

 70.  What do you, the creator of this OC, like most about them?

She’s a spunky little thing who loves to have fun and make others smile above all else.

 71.  Who is their ride or die?

In the Devildom, Beelzebub and Astaroth.

Beel for most things, and Asta for the stuff Beel won’t do.

 72.  Do they currently have a significant other? If not, are they going to get one later one?

Erm…eh…look, it’s never been officially labeled or anything, ok? Like yeah they’re kind always together and have pet names for each other and like always touch and cuddle and like snuggle up in bed together and stuffffffffffff but like, idk? Is Beel her dude? Like….do we wanna even get into that?????? I mean, maybe someday? Like…what? What was the question??

 73.  What attracts them to another person?

A genuine heart, a killer smile, and a rockin’ bod. Yeah okay look everyone can be a little shallow sometimes okay get off her case >__<.  

 74.  Who is one person that can always make them laugh?

She’s a damn fool and will laugh at ANYTHING, so it’s not hard. Everyone makes her laugh. The girl will 9 times out of 10 laugh at herself for the dumbest moments.

 75.  Have they ever partied too hard and their friends had to take them home?

Oh yes many times. Many many times.  One of the first few times she hung out (went on a date) one-on-one with Beel they had a drinking contest and as it turns out, he can really hold his devil liquor.

 76.  Who would be their cuddle buddy?

She’ll cuddle up to Beel 99.9% of the time because he’s big and warm and always happy to hold, but she also really enjoys cuddling with Asmodeus. He’s such a sweetie and he smells so nice and they just snuggle and talk and laugh and it’s a nice escape. (Loads of times there are Asmo x Niri x Asta sandwiches in Asmo’s room.)

 77.  Who would cheer them up after a long day?

She tends to go to one of the brothers depending on what kind of day it’s been. Most of the time it’s gonna be Beel because again, big/warm/happy to hold her, but there are occasions where she’ll drag Beel to one of the others’ rooms and they’ll just hang out.

 78.  If they had a nightmare, who would they run to?

I mean…Beel. Lol. He’s right there.

 79.  What object to the care for the most?

She has a picture of her friends from back home that sits on her desk. She treasures that above all while she’s down in the Devildom.

 80.  Do they like other people’s children?

Sure. Kids are fine as long as they go back to their parents after a bit.

 81.  How would they react if someone broke into their home?

Seeing as there’s always someone coming into her room regardless if she’s there or not, she probably would just shrug it off. If someone decided to have a bad lapse in judgement and break into the HoL? She wouldn’t have to lift a finger.

 82.  Does anyone make them have butterflies in their stomach?

I mean….Beel. Lol. He so big and cute! Also Diavolo because he also big and cute.

 83.  What is something that they are good at?

Crying to get out of trouble. She’s a little shit. Lol.

 84.  What is their neutral expression?

Niri kinda always looks pissed off or uninterested?  Until she smiles and you realize oh, she’s just a big ol’ faker.

 85.  Do they like to cook?

Yes. It’s one of her very favorite things to do!

 86.  What is something they can’t leave home without?

Her phone! (and Beel) but like, there’s just so much a phone can do!

 87.  Who is someone that they rely on?

Have I mentioned ever that Simeon is (or was at one time) Niri’s guardian angel? He seems to always be there and ready to help in any way, so she’s pretty reliant on him and hopes he feels the same toward her. (He does. Cue uwu’s)

 88.  Do they liked to be tickled?

Absolutely not. She’s extremely ticklish and hates being tickled. She flails and cries.

 89.  Have they ever been a sword fight before?

No. No she has not lol. Unless empty wrapping paper tubes count? She’s done that.  

 90.  What is a joke that they would find funny?

All the bad ones. All of them. Ugly laugh here we go!

 91.  Do they have a place that can go and turn off their brain?

The gardens at RAD. It’s peaceful and there’s a great  view of the sky.

 92.  What was their childhood like?

Not bad, but not memorable. There was a lot of pressure put on her to be a perfect kid, and she didn’t get to have a whole ton of fun.

 93.  What are they like as an adult?

Responsible, but definitely fun-loving. Like I mentioned before, she likes to live in a way that she won’t ever regret not having done something she wanted to do, or regret any actions she took, so she’s always got an open mind and welcomes new experiences. She’s a big ol’ kid.

 94.  Do they take criticism well?

Yes. She welcomes criticism in any form as she is always looking to be the best person she can be.

 95.  Have they ever jumped out of a plane?

No. Not yet!

 96.  Who do they like to make jokes with?

Literally anyone. A total joker. Big big clown.

 97.  Have you ever drawn them before? If you are comfortable with it, would you post a picture?

Yes! I draw Niri every once in a while. I actually need to draw her again soon! I miss that girl.

[royal-ni-fe]

1. Scott

2. 17

3. April 3rd

4. Aries (I don't believe in the zodiac and I don't match the personality of an Aries)

5. Green. I also love gray and blue. Neutral/cool tones are my favorite.

6. I don’t believe in luck but 37

7. My brother has a dog named biscuit

8. America

9. 5'8"

10. 9-9 1/2

11. 5-6

12. I’m really not very good at remembering dreams. The last one I remember was horrifying

13. I play guitar, sing, write, make art, run long distance, do Crossfit

14. I'm INFJ haha. Joke

15. Right now, it's probably Cold Blooded by Khalid

16. The first Incredibles :')

17. I could go into detail here so.. I will. Physically, I really should find her attractive. But if we're talking "Build-a-Bear" style: long, brown, soft hair, fair to darkish skin, deep and bottomless honey-brown eyes, smooth skin, pretty and white smile. Personality wise: intelligent, principled but not prudish, purposeful, stylish, family-oriented, confident, kind, interested, multi-layered, polite, uninhibited when she should be, a serious Christian, good kisser

18. At least 3, maybe 4. I'd also like to adopt!

19. Absolutely!!

20. Very! I love Jesus and he loves you!

21. RSV as a young child

22. No haha

23. I can't recall honestly. If I have, they weren't A-list

24. Showers but baths are lovely on the occasion, especially when you're equipped with fancy stuff

25. My feet are nakie, usually black

26. No but I don't think I'd mind to be

27. I would actually, but I'm fine not being one. I'd want to be known for my talent and then my kindness and love for the Lord and THEN my appearance though!

28. Very specific taste. Khalid, Hozier, Ariana Grande, Madison Beer, Zac Brown Band, Barns Courtney, The Weeknd, Lorde, TS are some examples. It's hard to nail it down to a genre

29. Only if you count losing my trunks in the water. Tbh, it does sound fun

30. Three on the right, two on the left

31. Literally every position.

32. Middle class American, basic ranch house. I think it's pretty though. I want a big Neoclassical or maybe Victorian house when I build my own though.

33. Frosted Mini-Wheats!! Strawberry lately! My favorite is blueberry though. Non-disputable

34. I like shooting. I'm not bad actually

35. I'm awful with a bow and arrow

36. Velichor- the strange wistfulness of bookshops

37. I don’t curse with the exception of being in traffic. I try to keep under wraps though.

38. Probably no more than 36 hours

39. Yes! My eyebrow has a small scar from my baby brother dropping a cup on my head. I have one on my left palm from my friend accidentally cutting me with his pocketknife, even though we weren't goofing off. I have a scar from a scratch on my left arms that my baby brother gifted me with during a fit. I have one on my right elbow from a bike-wreck that I reopened while playing basketball. I own three tiny ones. Two are on my left abdominals and one is on my right elbow, all from treating some small bumps contracted from a friend at baseball. I'm a clean freak and I hate that I have them. They're hardly noticeable. And then, on top of it all, I have some very faded and hardly noticeable stretch marks. I think everyone has them and they're nothing to be ashamed off. Slim and bigger people alike, male and female. I'm pretty slim, I just have very sensitive skin that scars easily.

40. I've had quite a few who eventually admitted to it or were snitched on.

41. I don't purposefully lie. But I'm good at stretching or editing the truth and excellent at faking emotions.

42. Generally, I would say yes, for sure.

43. Oh, a plethora! My best is Doctor Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb!

44. Northerners would say so. I don't think so. It may have a tiny southerness to it.

45. British and Scottish maybe! I also love Asian accents.

46. INFJ 3w4, Ravenclaw/Slytherin. I would describe myself as very kind. A little different maybe but I fit in almost anywhere with ease. I'm an intellectual and artist at heart.

47. Maybe my North Face coat? My shoes? I'm not sure. I'm the only one in my family interested in expensive things.

48. Yes!

49. Innie

50. Right handed, but left eye dominant

51. Most spider. I like tiny spider and jumping spiders

52. Anything Mexican with cheese, chicken and rice

53. Anything Mexican with cheese, chicken and rice

54. Generally clean, messes give me anxiety

55. “Tea?”

56. Crossfit/family

57. I always give myself an hour or more

58. I do honestly, and I should work on that, but I think I have a reason to have one in all honesty. I’m confident, attractive, kind, a good conversationalist, helpful, talented, atheletic, popular, multi-facited, somewhat intelligent, well-read and very focused on other people. I actually do not talk about myself much unless I’m around family. I suppose that really does sound like a lot of bragging, but I hardly ever brag and I’ve worked hard to become many of those things.

59. I try to suck, occasionally bite and then get mad at myself

60. Often. I discuss ideas and feelings with myself mostly. Sometimes I argue. Sometimes I pretended I’m being interviewed

61. Almost constantly

62. I would say so, yes. I’m a tenor with a decent range and a pretty but masculine voice.

63. Drowning or being unloved. I refuse to be clingy though haha

64. I’m very selective with whom I share gossip. Almost never maliciously, but more in the style of poking fun at humanity and its many natures.

65. My mind’s gone blank. Maybe Sense and Sensibility?

66. I’m a guy and I prefer short hair on myself. I prefer long hair on a girl but it’s also cute when they wear it short. I’m not the kind of person to tell people, especially women, how they should cut/wear their hair however. They aren’t here for me or other men to admire.

67. Begins song “ALLLLABAMA alaska Arizona Arkansas California, CONNECTICUT..”

68. Literature

69. INFJ. So I’m an introvert, but my aux Fe makes me seem like an extrovert.

70. Nope. Sounds fun but also terrifying! Rock fish? Lion fish? I have to laugh.

71. Being accused of something I didn’t do. Idk why. I never know where I’m at or what I’m doing. My alibi would be botched and inconsistent.

72. No. I find the dark warm and comforting. Way before that *one* post.

73. Depends on the gravity of the mistake or the consequence thereof.

74. Extremely

75. No? That’s kinda psychotic?

76. I’m often put in posistions of authority. To adults, I think I come across as an uber-friendly ISTJ. They tend to trust me almost immediately.

77. No lol I’m a tee-totaler.

78. The occasional Benadryl when I can’t sleep is the closest I’ve ever came to doing drugs.

79. My next-door neighbor Journey!! I was 2-3!! We played Hungry Hungry Hippos!

80. Zero

81. Choir teacher: “Okay.. WHO is rolling their R’s???!”

Me at eleven: “timidly raises hand”

82. Ridiculously fast on my phone, not very fast on the keyboard

83. I’m not a sprinter, but I can run a 5K in 21:25 and a half marathon in 1:56:25!! :)

84. Wheat blonde

85. Steel blue. At the risk of sounding like the meme, they turn tropical blue in the summer.

86. Shellfish

87. I’ve tried a few times. I’m afraid that’s more of an Si thing. Not that I’m limited by my type, but I am much more concerned with the future than the past. Although I would call myself conservative and traditional in many ways and I do enjoy history.

88. My dad is a pastor and my mom is a counselor.

89. I’d rather be 26 with my own house and a steady job but sure.

90. Abortion. Injustice. Parents who refuse to take care of their children. Corrupt governments who let their people starve and continue to tax them to death.

91. I think Ward is a pretty name honestly.

92. Of course! Not that I definitely won't change my mind but- Jack or Scott. Or Jack Scott. Mercy or Liberty. Ladd for a middle name. John Peter. Elinor and Marianne are so pretty to me. So is Madelyn. I love Greek names but I doubt I'll use them.

93. Both! I would be sad if I only got a boy or only a girl!

94. Empathy, principles, reason, determination, consistency, artfulness, purposefulness in my relationships, openness towards change, love for my family, confidence, creativity, planning, consoling and encouraging others, not being constantly emotional and bringing others down with me despite being a feeler.

95. A little narcissistic honestly, but I really think it's just internal. No one really complains about me being that way even when they complain about other things. Maybe too idealistic. Easily disappointed in people. Slightly materialistic. Clumsy.

96. Family name

97. Yes! British royalty!

98. I'll continue this one in the next post

[remi-demi94]

1. I started 2 years ago, but I installed it like a year prior to that. Lol... I kept seeing the ads for it and I saw the main characters and I thought they were all gorgeous, so I wanted to see what was up...

2. What got me into the game was probably the strangeness and vagueness of what in the world happened to Count Lucio. When you originally enter into the game, you have to play through the Prologue right? I was salty that Asra had suddenly left me there, dramatic ass Julian just kinda hopped up in my crib outta nowhere, and this gorgeous Goddess called Nadia was asking FOR MY HELP???! HELL yeahhhhh I was hooked within the first damn interactions. I was also curious about Muriel... I wanted to know why he barely spoke and why he was so cryptic.

3. Julian. Lmfao definitely Julian. He drew me in with those break-ins and that drink at the Rowdy Raven (I didn't leave the Palace the first time I did the Prologue though, I did it twice before I started any of the routes). And because I just couldn't bring myself to believe that he killed the Count. It just seemed like he was the scapegoat of something bigger.

4. Damn... please don't make me choose!!! Um... development and heartbreak wise? Definitely Julian. Boss ass goddess wise? Ofcourse Nadia. Discovery wise? Asra FOR SURE. They've all had a different affect on me.

5. Um... hmm.... I'm not sure... at first I would've said Asra's because I just felt like he was purposely keeping secrets from MC and I don't like that type of personality. I just... idk I wasn't connecting with him in the Prologue... so I just... wasn't excited to start his route, but now that I'm more aware of his story and everything, I love it. I still want more information about him because he's the most mysterious... can I just predict that I'm gonna hate Lucio's (prolly gonna love his the best in the end lmfao)

6. I think I've played all of them except for Lucio's animals. I would play Melchior and Mercedes but I haven't got around to it yet. Call me crazy, but I get some good spins and stuff with Pepi and Inanna for some reason lol

7. Originally it was Julian because of his goofy ass commentary, but now that we've got all 6 to romance, I'm gonna say Muriel. I just like reading his responses because he barely talks as it is.

8. I kinda really wanna romance the wine daddy er I mean Valerius. Idk why I just wanna see how he'd be if you romance him. Ooooo and Volta!! She's just soooooo precious. I rrreeeeaaallllyyyyy can't wait to see how Muriel's route continues... I just wanna snuggle that big bear man. I would say Lucio but it wouldn't be for the romance, I need some plot holes to be filled tbh.

9. Asra.... Asra's an enigma to me. I love him to death, but... there's just something about him that doesn't sit well with me. Idk if it's his elusiveness or his need to travel and leave MC alot, but I don't like some of his actions. I also don't like his relationship with Julian... but I do love his clap backs against Lucio and caring attitude towards MC and Muriel. Ya fluffy boi has been through a lot, so I understand some of his actions, but... idk

10. Julian... ooooo do I love me some Julian. Lol I adore his horny dramatic ass. Honestly I just wanna show him all the love and affection that he deserves. Yall I get real emotional about him because he's been through some shit too. He drives me crazy af sometimes but it's all good. What the FUCK... but he's a crafty disaster boi. I really enjoy that about him.

11. Momma told me that if I don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all... I mean, I HATE him for all the things that he's done, and I hate his interactions with most of the characters, but I don't feel like I have the right to judge him entirely all the way yet. I think I need learn more about him from his route before I can really get a feel of this man. I mean clearly he's handsome af and he loves animals, but that doesn't mean shit when I hear about all his other actions. I just... need to understand him or something

12. I really like Muriel. Ya mountain man has some serious traumas in his life, and I can relate to that. I just like how he's quiet and minds his business... much like I do lol. He'd definitely rather be left alone but he'll still talk to you to some extent. He has tons of scars, and I do too. Honestly I think he just needs some nurturing, understanding, affection, someone who acknowledges his trauma and boundaries, and someone who will be there for him. Once he trusts you, I bet he's the chillest and coolest guy in Vesuvia.

13. Nadia is my queen. End of discussion. Lol no but I related her when she talked about feeling inferior and demeaned by her family and Lucio. I know exactly what that feels like. However, I learned that a lot of those insecurities I felt were from my head because I have this mindset that I have to be perfect and excellent in everything that I do, and I definitely have not been feeling accomplished recently. That's the feeling I picked up on in her route as well, but unlike me, Nadia opened up a can a whoop ass and shut all her haters down. She's a fighter and a hustler, and I really admire that about her... I would happily be her bottom/switch as well lmfao.

14. Portia is the best! Lol I love her! She's like the optimistic version of myself that I wish I could reach someday lol. I love her gossipy self too. I just absolutely love how she reached out to Nadia's sisters while she was still asleep. That's the type of person everyone needs and I'm not even kidding. Portia wants what's best for everybody, and that caring attitude is rare nowadays. I love how she talks with her brother lmao classic sibling interactions. She seems like she'd get along with anybody too... minus Lucio. I feel like she'd cheer me up in a heartbeat.

15. I like the Star and the Hanged Man, but I also like a few of the other cards as well, especially the ones involving the wands and swords.

16. Lmao do coins count? I wanna buy the keychains, but I gotta get my money right and tight. I did buy the tarot deck though, I can't wait to see them.

17. Hmmm.... my favorite CG... from each of them or in general? Hmm... well Julian is my love sooooo.... hmmm... who tf am I kidding. It's obviously this one lmfao

There's no way they didn't fuck after he gave my MC that look lmfao... Also... I gotta thing for his shoulders.

18. I don't have any themed arcana blogs, I just have my personal one and my artwork one ( @remzirgraphicdesigns ) , but I post and reblog tons of arcana stuff on this main blog. I follow tons of arcana blogs though lol

19. Yessss I do! I haven't posted many because I'm pretty self-conscious about them... I just want my art to look EXACTLY like the characters I'm drawing, and I feel shitty about them when they don't. I've only recently drawn Julian and my MC Remy, but I like these two of my artworks the best. I promise I'll post up more when I work up the courage to do so.

20. Ummm... Well you see... let's... I made my apprentice sorta look like a new and approved version of myself (you know, longer hair, slightly more toned curvy shape, etc.), but the personality is much of the same... my apprentice is a little more confident in herself more than I am too.

21. I sure do boo!! Lol I should've BEEN introduced her to my fellow arcana players and lovers but I'm still tweaking her appearance... and I'm scared to show my drawing lol. Her name is Remy, she has a living parent... her mother and her name is Indigo. Her mother SPIT HER OUT, okay?! She looks just like her momma. Remy is 5'3-ish, she's a scorpio (Nov. 10), she has yellow citrine eyes and super curly reverse ombre royal blue to ash white hair (post-plague, just royal blue pre-plague). She's the same complexion as me, which is just a smidge darker than Nadia. She has 2 nose piercings and a shit ton of ear piercings. She has moles under her left eye that look identical to the big dipper constellation. She has tons of burn scars from her "death" and are insecure about a few of them, especially the one on her cheek. She's a curvy girl like me too lol.

22. One thing that could have the arcana theme made with it... hmmm... damn that's a tough one... the devs already made a tarot deck and keychains... hmm... maybe another game that follows the main 6's lives after the drama from this one? Ooo or maybe one that focuses on how the Courtiers got so corrupt??? That would be pretty cool.

23. Hmm... probably Portia and Nadia, I feel kinda shitty romancing Nadia when I love the idea of those two beauties together. I'd actually love to see Portia with Muriel too... idek why I just think they'll look good together.

24. Oh shit... literally anybody with Lucio tbh... ummm.... idk maybe Julian and Nadia? I think they'd LOOK gorgeous together, but I don't think Nadia would want to deal with his troublemaking ass. He'd be an excellent bottom for her though lol.

25. On my first playthrough, I got all Upright endings, and there's NNNNOOOOO fucking way that I'm about to purposely go through it again to change that... I DO NOT like what I heard about the reversed endings... I don't need that negativity in my life right now lol. I do like picking up on what choices effect the LI's reactions though and how they ultimately grow as a person throughout the books. I just go back through the routes just to experience it again.
