This week marks 12 years since I watched HetaOni for the first time (and fell in love with Hetalia as a result) so I wanted to do something to celebrate :')

The screenshots with art are from @cookies-hetaoni, which I totally recommend checking out if you like HetaOni!!

Bonus (quote courtesy of my friend):

tag game: 9 people you'd like to get to know better

thank you!! @pomegranates-and-onyx and @lowoliet!!! <3 I'm missed doing these tbh. I reordered the items so the sequence makes more sense xoxo

Favorite color: I usually say purple but I don't really feel that strongly

Relationship status: lmaoo I'm aro (greyro-ish?). I actually have long thought I would like to fake-date/date for fun, but just the other day went "I still haven't kissed anybody and I know plenty of ppl have a 1st older than me but tbh I don't think I ever will". Other than that, I've got a few friends I really like, a few friends I kinda don't, and some people in between. Solid nuclear family tho 👍

Currently consuming (eating, by the looks of the trend): Waiting on a response from a friend to see if her cookies (mint & chocolate) are tree nut-free. I hope I can eat them; they look great.

Last song: "Capital M-E" by Taking Back Sunday (I cheated a little b/c last night I listened to a bunch of random songs lol)

Current watching: Dan and Phil? Hbomb's latest video? theoretically, Death Note, Cunk on Earth, and Akira and Akira.

Last movie: Die Hard haha

Three ships: lawlight, tntduo … hm, Arthur/Eames from Inception is a favorited Ao3 tag I do regularly go back to

First ship: Not *too* sure either but I think it HAS to be Snowbaz b/c of the Fangirl -> Tumblr blog stalker thing & that book introducing me to fandom (whoops, that 'thing's not universal knowledge... after Fangirl I scoured Rainbow Rowell's blog which led me to gingerhaze.tumblr.com (he did the cover art) and b/c I couldn't read Nimona online I read his blog instead. b4 that I only went to youtube.com and minecraft.net) WAIT NO. I've always considered genderswapped Johnlock (SheJane) to be my first ship hahaha. (yes, it had to be genderswapped. reality was different back then)

Currently working on: sooo *twirls hair* there's these Hamlet scene analyses (plural)... that were due today.... also some Calc I think... my portfolio for a writing contest... Blind Justice Light Yagami drawing, if the motivation holds. And my Death Note fics I listed here :D

tagging @detective-horse-girl @l3mon-boy @cmstyles19 @sophaeros @i-could-bee-an-angel & seconding @drfurter well @novaliae I know you pretty well but you too of course :) no pressure to anybody if you'd rather not do it tho! & feel free to join in the fun and let me know u would like to foster mutual affection :D

OC DEEP DIVE TAG.

i was tagged by @thatndginger - thank you! (and you can find their answers here!)

RULES | answer the following question for your oc's.

i answered for Casey from my wip 'Half an Heir' because honestly, i didn't already have all the answers and he talks to me more than the others. it's probably the older sibling in us getting along.

what uncommon/common fear do they have?

Casey's scared of flying, but he'll deny he's scared of flying even while he's sitting on a plane and clutching at the arm rests with a white knuckled grip.

he's also scared of losing his family, of being the reason that they get hurt, and not being able to protect them.

do they have any pet peeves?

so, so many. people who don't have manners, people who walk slow, people who chew loudly, people who tailgate, or speed, or drive slow... and the list goes on. he's not afraid to tell you about it, either.

what are three items you can find in their bedroom?

Casey's not much of a 'stuff' person (or, he doesn't feel like he deserves to be a 'stuff' person, but we won't get into that right now.) other than the furniture you'd expect to find in there, you'd find an old, well-used blanket, a picture of him and his brother, and various weapons scattered around, and that's about it.

what do they notice first in a person?

if they're a threat.

on a scale of one to ten, how high is their pain tolerance?

about a nine out of ten. y'know how some dads can have a knife sticking out of them, be like, 'eh, it's just a scratch', wrap a tea towel around it and then just carry on with their day? yeah, Casey's like that.

do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure?

fight. he'd be out numbered ten to one, crack his knuckles and be like, 'this is going to be fun'.

do they come from a big family/are they a family person?

it was him, his baby brother, his mum and dad (until it was just him.) but he's the biggest family person, even when he struggles to open up and let his little found family in (and feels like he doesn't deserve them), he loves them with his entire being and would do absolutely anything for them.

what animal represents them best?

i'm not sure. what animal's depressed, grumpy and fiercely protective?

what is a smell that they dislike?

he probably wouldn't be fond of really sweet smelling candles, like the vanilla or cookie ones.

have they broken any bones?

yeah, many. he's broken a couple of his fingers before, his arm, his collarbone, his ribs a fair few times, and his nose more times than he can count.

how would a stranger likely describe them?

they'd say he's an asshole.

are they a night owl or a morning bird?

Casey's more of a 'get black out drunk no matter the time of day and then pass out cold for 12 hours straight, rinse and repeat' kinda person, but we'll call him a night owl.

what is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love?

he hates root beer. he loves marmite.

do they have any hobbies?

does drinking count?

boom, surprise birthday party! how do they react to surprises?

anyone who knows him knows it's a terrible idea to surprise him, you're more likely to get a weapon pulled out on you than you are to get a 'thank you.'

do they like to wear jewelry?

not really, he wears a watch but nothing else.

do they have neat or messy handwriting?

he writes like a dad, in all caps lock. it's a little messy, because he always rushes, but if he put a little care into it, it'd probably be quite nice and neat.

what are the two emotions they feel the most?

grief and anger.

do they have a favorite fabric?

not particularly.

what kind of accent do they have?

i'm still not 100% sure exactly where i'm going to set my wip, so i couldn't tell you specifically, but he does have a british accent.

apologies if you already have been, but i'm going to gently tag: @aether-wasteland-s @oh-no-another-idea @revenantlore @ashfordlabs (feel free to let me know if you'd rather not have me tag you in things!)

full list of the questions under the cut to make it easier for you:

What uncommon/common fear do they have? Do they have any pet peeves? What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? What do they notice first in a person? On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? Do they come from a big family/are they a family person? What animal represents them best? What is a smell that they dislike? Have they broken any bones? How would a stranger likely describe them? Are they a night owl or a morning bird? What is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love? Do they have any hobbies? Boom, surprise birthday party! How do they react to surprises? Do they like to wear jewelry? Do they have neat or messy handwriting? What are the two emotions they feel the most? Do they have a favorite fabric? What kind of accent do they have?
