#This ask was sooo fun Thank you so much

[packedice]

what genres of music does each aqours member like to listen to? i think all of guilty kiss are metal fans

This needs to be under a readmore. i... genuienly thought i coudl get through this without needing it but im pausing like halfway in because.... yeah she needs it

Something tells me you listens to like the most radio pop ever. just anything about YEAAAHH LIFE IS AWESOME LETS PARTY ABOUT ITTTT!!!!!!! and also mildly angsty poppunk stuff (and thinks about the Great Chikariko'ing of her life from s1)

and chika is of course a theater kid... im influenced by anju (her seiyuu) being a MASSIVE THEATER KID but also every one of her solos is theatrical soooo. Who's overthinking it its not me!!!!

Ruby of course listens to jpop the most. i think she tried to get into kpop (time period accurate ofc so 3rd gen ish iirc) but i think some of the industry differences + the general Sound Differences make her not very interested. I think also ruby would like izone (i never was into them so idk about canon time accuracy but imagine.)

and then dia loves jpop too obvs but i think she genuinely listens to a litlte bit of everything. i think mari's metal interest (youre so right btw about gk) bleeds into kanadia because once that throuple stops being toxic they are INNNNSEPARABLEEEEEEE..... but dia genuinely likes anything. shes into idol music, shes into more heavy stuff, shes into radio pop, shes into retro, while she doesnt love ANY SONG OF ANY GENRE, she can definitely get into SOME SONGS of any genre! i think dia really really enoys music as a hobby in general so she enjoys trying and finding new things. growing up being fixated on idol culture and music will to taht to you.....

SO OF COURSE MARI LISTENS TO METAL. i think though new winding road is a really interesting tell into her other interests. (...ignoring that her seiyuu is an insanely talented traditional singer (is that the right word. im sorry im high and blanking. please correct me ifthis is like... weird white person vague and i will fix im just soo high and cant think)

hanamaru listened to music but i think was not much of a "Music Consumer" until she was a little older so i think as a result she mostly listens to songs her friends listen to too... her and kanan both i think listen a lot to the actual style Of azalea songs. like edm or whatever. kanan is also a pop radio kinda girly. just whatever plays in her parents shop while shes working etc

yohane liste4ns to ANYYYTHINGGG metal and ANYYYTHINGGG thats like Ohhhh i hate m,yselffff Ohhh im so evillllll... any genre if the lyrics speak to her not being the biggest fan of herself side OR her "little devil" hehe Im evil for fun side.... Ya. its on the playlist. Forrrr sure. To me also the most yohane gk song is kowareyasuki and because of t hat i think songs that sound similar to that are also super up her alley

I will admit i have not been a friend of riko until recently starting to like her a little more.... so my answer is very basic with metal and like piano instrumental/ballads/cute poppy love songs

hiccuping tears into the shoulder + ranchers by chance?

hiccuping tears into their shoulder (1087 words) (x)

For the first time in a good, long portion of his life, Tango despises how silent the night gets. It's not without its natural noise—the balmy, sticky humidity and breeze in the grass, or the crickets, the cicadas quieting down, the sounds of animals rearranging themselves to a comfier sleeping arrangement. He should be doing the same, but he's sitting on the edge of the bed, his spine a rigid line. He can feel the blood in his body, he can feel the spaces where his muscles connect to each other, with every breath he can feel his lungs separate out the oxygen. It's at the very least startling, and at the very most, he feels like he might dissolve on the spot if touched. 

Tango knows how death feels—painless respawn and a few seasons of a life game behind him, but to feel someone else die, too. The echo of death alongside your own. He didn't like that! Not good at all. All his blood and heartbeat-y things are rushing around in his ears. He doesn't even hear Jimmy the first time he speaks up from the other side of the bed, with how his voice scrapes out.

"I didn't know they were aiming for us," Jimmy says.

"Of course not," Tango says, furrowing his eyebrows. "I know you didn't."

He's still looking at his hands, running his thumb over the lines in his palm and pushing into the tiny bones and muscle there. Jimmy flexes his hands like he can feel the pressure and bones moving around. He watches him fold his hand tight around each other and slump, pulling his shoulders to his chest. His breath squeezes in his chest as Jimmy deflates tiredly.

"I just don't want you to think—"

"I'm not gonna think this is your fault, alright?" Tango says, frowning at him. "Why would I?"

Jimmy sighs. His jaw works.

"Cause it usually is," he grits. Tango scrunches his nose on instinct, recoiling out of habit before he manages:

"That's not fair, man."

"This whole game isn't far!" Jimmy huffs, waving a hand about.

"Sure but—"

"But nothing, Tango. I just—I can't lose and drag you with me. That's more than not fair."

"I don't care."

"I care."

Before Tango can argue, though, he tastes the faintest hints of anger and frustration at the back of his mouth fade. He watches Jimmy's face contort as he tries to come up with a better sentence, something he probably thinks Tango deserves. Maybe an apology. 

Tango just looks at him. He kind of feels bad, that little bit of gut wrenching cold that trickles in, but mostly he's just confused. Jimmy's words bat around in his brain like dust particles. Dust bunnies. He definitely assumed they were done with this. That maybe Jimmy made peace like he did—though really he hadn't had that much time to make peace, if he's being honest. He's still bitter. He's sure a lot of people are still bitter. But in terms of Jimmy's whole situation? It's not like it could be helped. They just had to be careful. So Tango was being careful, and Jimmy was taking what Tango thought was a calculated risk, so he was mad, sure, but he couldn't really stay mad for a long time. So he takes a long breath and sighs it out his nose. It still tastes surprisingly reminiscent of smoke.

"So what are we going to do?" he asks softly. Jimmy inhales.

"I don't know," he says. "Go to bed? Wake up and start planning?"

Tango hums plainly. He likes that idea. The small spool of feeling in his chest that must belong to Jimmy gives a little tug, like it wanted to take him down with it. 

"Yeah," Tango says, voice coming hoarse. "Yeah, I think so."

For a moment, Tango runs his tongue over his teeth, runs his thumbs over the seams of his knees. He sighs, and then he leans into Jimmy's shoulder with a definitive huff. He's tired. From the ache in his bones, to the breathlessness of dying, to just taking in Jimmy's stress. Man. He's exhausted. Jimmy snorts quietly. He feels him press his cheek against Tango's head. The hand Jimmy had been fiddling with in his lap ends up at the base of his spine, splayed over the fabric. Tango squeezes his eyes shut.

"Thanks Tango," Jimmy says shakily. He sounds like he's on the knife's edge of crying, so Tango fumbles out a hand and lands it solidly on his knee. It's not a terribly comfortable thing to stretch one of his achy shoulders or biceps that far but he does anyway, and Jimmy huffs out a damp laugh. "Guess I'm just... pissed off."

Tango snorts.

"If you think you're pissed, just wait until they rile me up," he says into the fabric of Jimmy's shirt. Jimmy laughs. Tango tries to hold in a grin that he also smothers into his shoulder, but fails. Jimmy's hand skips over his knuckles and squeezes the hand on his knee.

"Sure thing, Rancher," he teases. Tango makes a half-suppressed noise of indignation, squeaking as he bolts upright. He nearly knocks into Jimmy's jaw as he untangles himself with all the grace of a cat trying to weasel out of someone's arms. 

"I'm just sayin'," he grumbles, crinkling his nose. "You seem like you're in a better mood though."

Jimmy sighs, rounding out his shoulders. 

"Think so," he says, working his cheek between his teeth. Tango feels the sensation of prodding in his mouth. Bleh. "Think so."

"Probably a good idea to make good on that sleeping... thing,” he says, reaching up to scrub at his eyes. He barely stifles a yawn as Jimmy stretches, twisting his tall body around in a way that feels surprisingly pleasant to Tango’s stiff muscles. He can’t imagine, especially with the way Jimmy holds all his emotions in his shoulders, that his upper back is doing him any favors. Jimmy makes a little noise in confirmation as Tango turns, attempting to make ample space for him in the small bed. He knows they’ll end up back to back at some point, but as he lies down, shoulder to shoulder, an easy comfort rolls over him. Sure there’s all the red blood rushing around in his ears, and sure he feels it right up on his skin like a bad rash, but for now, next to Jimmy, he shuts his eyes.

They’ll make this time count for something, at least.

So fascinated by the fact you see Vanitas as someone who 'has outstanding morals but an unpleasant personality' because I see him as someone who 'has questionable morals but a charming, fun personality.' This goes to show I'm right about it being subjective lol

dgdhhdhdjghdhdg thats amazing actually.

(well, this reply got long - and spoilery - so. my reasoning under the cut to those interested <3 )

i think hes the second option because every character in vnc notes on how vanitas is insufferable and just. unpleasant to be around lmao. he may be fun to watch for us, but everybody strongly dislikes him for a good while after meeting him (and its by design - vanitas wants to be "free" after all. so he lays it extra heavy on making sure nobody will like him). only once they see through his many many self-defense layers (noé's line of "you are lying about lying" in the tower), thats when they start to like him.

meanwhile he's the one absolutely hell bent on curing vampires (supposedly to track down who corrupted Luna but like. he doesnt have to cure them to do that?). he rigidly refuses to give up his hard earned autonomy + values consent so extremely he drugs himself to not be able to give consent and fight to the death for it if needed. subsequently, when he wanted to make sure jeanne hates him he did the thing he would've hated the most (ep3) (unaware that that was jeanne's parents mating ritual essentially lmao). they were violating him in the lab but still volunteered for more to save misha from death. he claims to "hate everyone equally" but still treats the dhams with the dignity they dont get from basically anywhere else. he repeatedly advises noé when he gets into a moral conflict (most notably with astolfo).

the list goes on but i think you get it 😄 hes a very skilled actor in the process of dying for his morals, essetially.

What kind of characteristics or traits do you think Annie's baby has that reminds her of Finnick??

omg i love this question so much, thank you for asking!! especially since whenever i do write odesta's kid i do have to make a very big effort to remember that its canon that annie says their kid reminds her more and more of finnick as he grows up. these hcs are mostly based on things ive mentioned in the Deep Dive universe, but i will make sure to explain the more Out There stuff so that it makes sense even without context!!

whereas i think annie is very talkative and energetic, i think odesta's kid would take after finnick and be more on the quiet side. if we want to run with the hc that finnick has always been a people pleaser, then i think its very possible that he was a perfect blend of a teacher's pet and a class clown. Odesta Baby is effortlessly likeable (i love annie cresta, but i don't think she'd be effortlessly likeable i think she's likeable in a way that intrigues people yet also might annoy them. like "do i fuck w her or does she just ignite something contrarian in me" but anyway this isn't about annie cresta this is about her son)

with that being said, i also repeat the phrase "careful precision" like my life depends on it whenever im writing a fic with odesta/johannie and the baby, but i think it holds so true. i think finnick basically tackled everything with careful precision and was overall a very calculated person, so i think it would be jarring for annie to see how that manifests in more casual ways with their baby. like, maybe he creates outline after outline whenever he does his homework instead of taking on annie's "fuck it we ball" approach. or maybe when someone is explaining card/board game rules he impresses everyone with getting things right the first time bc he is like i need to understand it the first time through i need to understand it the first time through i need---etc etc. i just think that it is very obvious that the wheels are turning in his brain in overdrive mode bc he doesn't want to fuck anything with anyone up and something something perfectionism screams finnick odair. but also obviously i think that they are all very smart, i just think that finnick and the baby get anxious about needing to be perceived as intelligent

i also think he's a writer!! i think finnick's victor's talent (poetry) was rooted in some truth, so i like to think that when he and annie were kids they came up with silly little stories to pass the time, and Odesta Baby eventually picks up the mantle and annie is like who taught you that. i also think he looks at everything and creates stories behind it: clouds, toys, furniture, you name it! which i also think would be very finnick this man would bump into a mannequin, apologize, and then not even have that "oh i just said sorry to an inanimate object" moment"

i also don't think he loses his temper very quickly. i know i am kinda getting into "nurture vs nature" territory here, but even though i think johanna and annie (who i hc raise Odesta Baby) have very short fuses, i think Odesta Baby came out of the womb nonchalant. i have no backing for this other than anecdotal evidence that my brother is the token nonchalant person in the family despite everyone else Not Being Nonchalant

i think this is getting way too long so i will just leave it at this: i think he is a sore loser, just like how i think finnick odair, youngest victor of panem history, would also be an extremely sore loser. and i think annie would get a kick of seeing Odesta Baby sulk just like finnick used to bc it would be very quiet yet obvious discontent and she'll be like girl. all we did was race to the buoy and back its not like your firstborn child was on the line

toji fushiguro and 2 for the character ask game 🤍🤍

favorite canon thing about this character?

OKKKK I LOVE THIS QUESTION!! i had to think abt it first bc i'm gonna go big and say my favorite thing is that toji doesn't have ANY cursed energy. he just has MAJOR skill and has this fuckin 6th sense + his 5 other senses are heightened which makes him on TOP.

like he is SOOOO op and he doesn't even have the number one thing you need to be a jujutsu sorcerer— it's all skill and pure power.

like he so could have killed gojo, he was right there but out of luck, literally just luck and what adrenaline? gojo is like blessed with reverse cursed technique that screws his head back on, which results in toji's death. i love gojo, don't get me wrong, but toji is gonna be my #1 baby

and what i think is so funny is when he marches into the cave? with suguru and the stargirl, bro just shoots her and suguru is like horrified and is like "how did you get here?" and this crazy bastard just goes "what? like it's hard?" and drops this major bomb on him that he killed gojo and beats the SHIT out of him 😭

bro if i was suguru i would hate everyone who coudnt use jujutsu too LMFAOO. toji is just so OP it's funny.

Almighty Empress of Sukka! I have a spicy Sukka question for you:

What are some things that Sokka and/or Suki do (unknowingly or otherwise) that get each other in the mood? Like little quirks or habits or clothes they wear or just random everyday stuff that makes the other go 😯🥵🤤? (For example, maybe Suki drinking a milkshake or slurpee with her lips wrapped around the straw is just a bit too much for Sokka to handle. And maybe when Sokka takes his shirt off after a hot, sweaty workout, not matter how awkwardly he does it, Suki gets a little hot and flustered herself.)

Sorry, that was a lot. 😅 But Sukka’s irrepressibly spontaneous love for each other always makes me want to gush! 🥰

And I know you’re busy with Sukka Week right now, so no rush to answer this at all! I’m very patient.

Lord, have I really been sitting on this ask for nearly two years??

I need you to know, Dearest Anon, that it doesn't feel like I've let this ask go for so long because I have actually had it on my mind that entire time, wanting to answer it and waiting until a good enough answer surfaced.

But I think I was going about it the wrong way. I don't really have a lot of headcanons that exist independently of putting a guy in situations. And if I put a guy in enough situations, I might end up repeating similar ideas until they become headcanons (like my headcanon that Suki has a particular fondness for lotus seed buns).

So! It occurred to me that maybe the best way for me to answer this question would be to put these guys in a situation. And now, at long last, we have...Suki getting really turned on by Sokka cooking... 😏

Suki stepped off the back porch of the house, perched the steamer basket full of rice on her cocked hip, and bit her lip. Framed beautifully in her field of view, amidst a glorious backdrop of lush green foliage and the island’s tumbling, sparkling brook, was Sokka, standing over the makeshift grill he’d thrown together from a large cast iron pot and some wire mesh he’d gotten off one of the fishing boats. The air was fragrant with the savory sweet aroma of seared meat, Sokka expertly working the grill in a calculated dance between flame, timing, and seasoning. And Suki’s mouth was watering. 

“Hey there, grill master,” she crooned as she approached, abandoning the rice on the table that housed Sokka’s setup. She ran one hand over his shoulder, down his back, then lower still so she could squeeze a generous handful of ass cheek. 

He yelped before glancing at her out of the corner of his eye, one brow quirked in amusement. “Hungry?”

“Starved,” she said, sidling closer and pressing up against him from behind. Her hands quickly found his hip bones and traced the muscle there before teasing lower by just a few millimeters, and Sokka nearly dropped his tongs. 

“You know Mrs. Kotoji can see us from here…”

Suki turned her head towards her next door neighbor’s house just in time to see the shutters slam shut on one of the windows. “Nothing scandalous for her to see here,” she countered breezily. Then she found the slit in the side of Sokka’s tunic and traced her fingers down his thigh.

“Keep doin’ that and there might be,” he grunted, and Suki chuckled, dropping her forehead between Sokka’s shoulder blades as she laughed. 

“Listen…” she said coyly. With her head still resting against Sokka’s spine, she drew her hands slowly around his hips and up his flanks. “I know you’re still cooking, but once you’re done, you think you could…scandalize me a bit before we eat?”

Something clattered loudly while Sokka fumbled around with the grill, and then suddenly he was whirling around, gripping Suki’s waist and tugging her close. “Tui and La, woman… I will scandalize you so much, you’ll be reading about it in Ba Sing Se next year. In those scandal sheet things. That they circulate in the Upper Ring. Whatever, it made sense in my—” And he cut himself off by closing the distance between his mouth and hers. 

Suki threw her arms around his shoulders, laughing into him as he penguin-stepped them back towards the house. When they collided with one of the porch posts, Sokka used the opportunity to deepen the kiss, slotting one thigh between hers, creating delicious friction for them both. Suki moaned.

“So, you like the way I handle my meat, huh?” Sokka teased, breathy against her lips.

“Oh yeah,” Suki rasped, delighted, sneaking her eager hands back around to Sokka’s backside. “And now it’s my turn.”

what a silly guy!!!!!

[significant-narratives]

hiiii 💕 ⭐️🌷 9 + 11 + 23

MWAH thank you lovely!! 💕💕

9. Best month for you this year?

okay so i ended up having to go through my photo album to jog my memory lol but having done so: june!! i got to celebrate so many milestones with some of my favourite people on the planet, and getting to witness and be part of their joy gave me so much joy in return. my cousin / surrogate big sister graduated (and she looked stunning and i'm so proud of her), my baby brother graduated with honours (and i almost cried like six times at his ceremony), my other cousin had her baby shower for her first kid (and i was scared it would be awkward since i was the youngest 'adult' there but everyone was so incredibly kind and welcoming and i had so much fun), and we threw a small birthday party for my mom that she absolutely loved and is still talking about months later.

it was a month full of so much happiness and celebration and like. it sounds cheesy but it really did remind me that at the end of the day, the point of living is to spend time with the people you love. love is the whole point!

honorary mentions to january as a month where i had so much fan as a leafs fan specifically (willy extension + 1688 'mitch tackle' celly etc) and september (mainly for one reason -- it was when i got to hold my baby cousin for the first time)

11. Something you want to do again next year?

explore more secondhand bookstores! (and 'niche' stores in general) i visited a couple this year and each one was such a unique experience. i hope to eventually have a list of all my favourite bookstores around the city <3

23. If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?

oh this is a tough one because i was really Going Through It on the first day of the year lmao. so i wonder if i would give myself situation-specific advice or not... hm. i'd probably tell myself that you've gotten through hard times before and you will get through them again. trust your gut. be brave enough to allow yourself to be vulnerable with people, even if it doesn't allow lead to the outcome you want. don't take things personally. tell your best friend you're grateful for her every chance you get. when the girl in your research methods class asks if you want to grab a coffee, say yes. also head's up you are going to continue to let the leafs dictate your mental health so like... prepare yourself.

End of the year asks

[hecatesbroom]

To be honest I was wondering if you have a top 5 of books 👀

Hii! Now, that's a hard question :') I have so many!! I think if I were to make a top 5, it'd look something like this:

(Limited to English books only because I really wouldn't know how to choose otherwise haha)

The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir (if I had to pick just one, it'd be Harrow the Ninth, book 2 in the series)

The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien (which he wanted to have published as one big book, so hey, this isn't technically cheating!)

Carmilla by J. Sheridan Le Fanu

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

The Kingdoms by Natasha Pulley

I tried to vary a bit in genre with this, and honestly my favourite books change quite frequently, but I'd say the top 3 are pretty stable! (I'm not sure anything will ever be able to beat The Locked Tomb for me anymore haha)

[appallinnballin]

suuuuuuuuch a huge fan of the minuscule details you add to the characters when you draw them in your style. the reptilian elbow scutes on aldryx. ruv’s lips that make him look ursine. sarv’s drapey wings. everyones’ body types. the list goes on,, they suit all of them fantastically

this is such a lovely message THANK YOUUUUUGGHJ

[undermine-the-instinct]

I found your last fic with Yuji and Mahito really interesting, the writing is so good! I just love the way that you write Mahito! Do you ever plan on writing one with Mahito and the girlfriend before she died?

Oh, most definitely.

Mahito is a particular brand of evil, and he knows it. He's got this childlike curiosity, that's so at odds with the horrors he so likes to inflict, and reader is Special. If he wants to understand himself, he has to understand his enemy. To understand Yuji, he has to understand you.

Everything about you. There was no way you were ever going to escape once he got to you.
