🎁 - Favorite NPC?
💐 - Most overrated bachelor/ette in your opinion?
☘ - Which game was the most fun in your opinion?
🎁 - Favorite NPC?
I have quite a few! In a previous ask, I had mentioned Pastor Carter. Another favorite of mine is Saibara. I first found myself interested in learning more about him when he was shopping in town and mentioned how hard things were when he first became a widower and had to learn to do everything all on his own. He didn't sound like he was complaining, but I remember the words and expression seeming really sad. He's definitely too rough on Gray in some respects, but he really does mean well. We catch instances of him telling the main character how he wants to make sure he can teach his grandson as much as he can before he leaves this world, and I just get such a lonely vibe from him. Thus, it is my mission to befriend him, hehe. He might seem gruff on the surface, but there are times when he's actually really gentle, and I love that.

💐 - Most overrated bachelor/ette in your opinion?
Uh-oh, time for an unpopular opinion, hehe. I know that my reason for this is based on the times that I used to read fanfiction and also for the way I write this character. I do love writing this character and there are so many interesting facets to write.
Sorry, y'all, but I've gotta go with Popuri on this one (Mineral Town Popuri in particular).
Things have changed in the fandom/fanfiction world for the Bokumono series, and I feel like there is a larger variety out there, but several years ago, I distinctly remember 90% or so fics featuring the bachelorettes to have Popuri. There are so few fanfictions that feature bachelorettes as opposed to bachelors, so it was easy to feel oversaturated by Popuri.
I have learned to appreciate her more over the years, but I feel that her events have some of the weakest writing in the GBA games. I really liked that in Back to Nature, her first event is her running off to cry after leaving the chickens outside and a coyote gets to them. It really showcases that she's still learning about chickens. I guess they replaced it with a runaway chicken in the GBA games so that it wasn't as dark(?) but I think it really lacks that punch that she's a novice and a little immature. Plus we missed out on some great expressions, like the one below!

I feel that the entire Chicken Li'l/Popoultry family could have had some more impactful events. But I guess that's what fanfiction is for - write the stuff you want to see, hehe.
☘ - Which game was the most fun in your opinion?
Oooh, this is a HARD one. My favorite parts of the games are the farming sim aspect, and I love how Back to Nature/Mineral Town have everything accessible with no hand holding. If you wanna save your money to buy a ridiculous golden lumber fence, that's your choice. It's not something you have to wait several seasons to come into stock. The speed of the day feels just right to me. I have to carefully plan what I want to get done. I remember playing Grand Bazaar and adoring the Bazaar portion, but it was the first one I played with the slower timer, one second per minute. I like to milk as much as I can out of each day, so I would just end up jumping in the water over and over in hopes of getting a piece of ore and using up all the stamina that I had left over because the game was too easy in that respect. I think I like the events in Back to Nature/Harvest Moon for Girl more than the handheld Mineral Town games, so my vote's going to go for Back to Nature/Harvest Moon for Girl. If only you could play after marrying as a girl! I'm still frustrated at that. I really would've loved a remake of those games. They could have taken out all of the casual sexism in For Girl and kept all those fun extra festivals, like the Tomato Festival, the Goddess Festival, and special events like Ann's birthday party.

Ok I'm gonna be a little self indulgent with this next ask but,,,, Myla, Tiso, Quirrel, and Ghost?
i love you and your self indulgences 🥺 (Tiso, Quirrel, and Ghost are being banished in the readmore corner) -Myla- -How I feel about this character- SADNESS. She was one of the first good characters you meet and then,, she slowly,,, 😔Her humming was adorable, and even though she didn’t get very far with her mining in game, she is a TERRIFIC miner and that’s that on that. -All the people I ship romantically with this character- Well the big one is Shyla, but in my canon I enjoy the poly ship of Bretta/Myla/Cloth a lot! -My non-romantic OTP for this character- Marissa and her are singing buddies!! :D -My unpopular opinion about this character- 🤔I don’t have one! Are there any unpopular opinions about her? The fuck. Illegal. -One thing I wished would happen / had happened with this character in canon- Seeing her slowly get infected was actually very nice and interesting and I’m glad it’s in the game cause she’s the only one who we see actually go through the process, but also she deserved better and huuuuu :(
-Tiso- -How I feel about this character- Hoo boy... Okay, canon wise Tiso sucks. He’s a rude cocky asshole that fucken, has nothing to back up his cockiness whatsoever and he dies before he ever does anything impressive, let alone good. That being said, fanon Tiso is a lot better. I’m not a big fan of stuff where his personality is solely just like, mad or tsun (not a fan of those types of characters anyways), but ideas where his cockiness is to hide his insecurities, and where he is very reluctant to get close to people but he actually does have a good and soft side that mostly shows whenever he’s around people who he loves and cares about is good! Makes him way more interesting and fun to engage with! Like, I would like canon Tiso a lot more if he just dialed back on thinking he’s hot shit cause that kinda personality annoys me lkjsdkljds but! Your interpretation of him (and mine) are my favorite, and that’s how I’m pretending Tiso is actually like. 🥰 -All the people I ship romantically with this character- Quirrel, Lemm, and God Tamer! This ant is Bi as FUCK. -My non-romantic OTP for this character- Him and Emilitia and Cloth. They are always down to square up with each other and I think that’s beautiful. -My unpopular opinion about this character- Like with Pale King, I think he’s overrated in the fandom LKDJKLJSDSLKD -One thing I wished would happen / had happened with this character in canon- He fucken did SOMETHING worthwhile while he was still alive! God he talked so much shit about how he can’t be bothered talking to us cause he has to find the Colosseum of Fools and when he gets there finally he just! KERSPLATS. If he had grown to be nicer to us by the time he died, then that would have been great. -Quirrel- -How I feel about this character- MY BOY. He deserved SO much better. Omg him and Ghost are amnesia buddies. Like he loses his memory only to get it back because he had to help kill of someone he cared about, that’s so fucking SAD and I wanna hold him and protect him from the world :( -All the people I ship romantically with this character- He’s in a poly relationship with Tiso and Lemm and that’s how it be. 😌 -My non-romantic OTP for this character- Monomon is basically his mother! I LOVE Momnomon so much! Especially if raised Quirrel from a baby,,, she jus,,, she just hold the baby rollie pollie,,, And he’s definitely 100% the best uncle to Ghost! He’s like the first friend they’ve ever made, and they stay friends Post-HK! -My unpopular opinion about this character- I don’t have one! -One thing I wished would happen / had happened with this character in canon- I WISH WE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM! Like, I get that people are a fan of ambiguous endings for characters, like they go missing and you don’t know where they are and literally anything could happen to them and it’s all up to interpretation, but I don’t?? like that?? I like knowing the endings of characters, especially if they’re ones who I care about! Like just make it obvious what happened with them so I don’t have to question it. (Also he’s definitely still alive in my head tho) -Ghost- -How I feel about this character- THEY’RE A FUCKENGNIN BABY. They’re a WONDERFUL protagonist and playable character, and they are so fucking cute and they are just!! All around a very good character. I love them so much holy shit. -All the people I ship romantically with this character- Like I said in the Grimmchild ask, Adult!Ghost and Adult!Grimmchild have a good childhood friends-to-lovers story possibility, but as they are right now there’s definitely NO ONE who I ship them with. Not even in AUs where they’re an adult, cause every single character in the game meets and knows them as a child* at first and that shit is fucking gross no matter what. (*or child looking equivalent, if some of you reading this are the types of morons that are like “oh, well, i think they’re actually 1000000000000 years old so it’s okay to ship them with adults.”) -My non-romantic OTP for this character- GRIMMCHILD AND GHOST ARE BEST FRIENDS FOREVER DO NOT SEPARATE THEM. -My unpopular opinion about this character- THEY ARE NOT EMPTY!!!!!! THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE GAME IS TO TALK ABOUT HOW THE VESSELS AREN’T ACTUALLY EMPTY. -One thing I wished would happen / had happened with this character in canon- I wanted them to get an actual happy ending :( They deserved so much more. Send me a character!
