#brotp: generational sentimentality

[hythlodaeus-mynewoldfriend]

Happy belated Fathers Day to this family right here!

They out here just having the best outing one could ask for :’) so proud of them all honestly. Everyone also needs to know in my heart that apron has a some cheesy grill pun on it I just didn't have the energy to edit on each individual shot 🙃

[tigsbitties]

norm for the character opinion ask meme? :>

Sexuality Headcanon: I think Norm is technically bisexual. I say technically bc i one: do think he’s mostly into women and two: don’t think he’s really the type to use labels. Just not something that appeals to him personally.

Gender Headcanon: Uncomplicated cis guy. Or at the very least if there’s anything else going on there I don’t think that’s a journey he’s going on anytime soon.

A ship I have with said character: NORMGINGI FOR SURE easily one of my top dialtown ships. I will say I think they’re “dating” per say. I think they have an emotional bond that sort of transcends that? out of all of the datebles Norm and Gingi have the most emotionally intense relationship but also the one that’s least well defined. Also because I think Gingi calling Norm their “boyfriend” would make him die of embarrassment. he’s too old for all of that he had a wife and kids damnit .

A BROTP I have with said character: I think his interactions with Randy are super cute, especially in the dtf segments. His relatively likeable sea urchin with the heart of a champion<3 I really like Mich’s headcanon about Norm building a house near the woodsy outskirts of the funfair and Randy occasional leaving her post to go bother him. I’m so sorry Mr. Allen sir I had the chimp dream again and I don’t think I can be alone right now knowing there are around 2,000 known chimps in the US.

A NOTP I have with said character: I don’t really care for when people ship him with Mr. Dickens but it’s not something I have any kind of active distaste for either. To me it just feels like one of those ships that exists to fill a quota? like back when a lot of people thought norm was super old for some reasons but still wanted to yaoi him with someone they had to go with the old man™️. I could definitely be misinterpreting things though. I’m sure someone could do something interesting with it (i know dogman has mentioned wanting to write a short thing about a hypothetical dynamic between the two of them, which i unironically think would be super interesting to read) I do think the two of them could have a lot to talk about— i just haven’t seen anything shipping wise that’s caught my eye just yet. maybe some day.

A random headcanon: less a random headcanon that spawned from the ether and more of an observation but i love that he lies about not believing in evolution. Makes perfect sense to do that in the 1960s i’m sure but now it makes him look genuinely fucking insane. Oh Norm you make me giggle

General Opinion over said character: I love him sooo muches you don’t understand it’s kinda of embarrassing. I see him and immediately transform into a teenage girl in a movie writing her crushes name a million times in her diary and encircling it all in hearts. Dialtown Chapter 3 and Norm by extension are super important to me I get really sentimental thinking about it. Visual Novels are good you guys.

[kyouka-supremacy]

Ask game can you do kyouka

Yay Kyouka!!!

Favorite thing about them: HER EXISTING. The fact that she's one (1) fleshed out female character and for one I will love her for that. I also generally really like the trope of little girls facing unimaginable horrors and defeating them, it gives me hope. The fact that she was able to get out of an abusive environment by her own forces is very inspiring, too. More Kyouka love words here.

Least favorite thing about them: I feel I'm cheating at this with always mentioning things that are really not about the character but rather about the way they fit in the story but... I'm very disappointed when the author flat out forgets about her. 55 Minutes and the whole airport arc. I've said it before but I really wish she would have intervened during the Atsushi / Akutagawa airport fight because what were she and Yosano and Lucy doing the entire time. In general, I wish we'd see her more outside of her relationship with Atsushi which I LOVE but that is starting to feel quite limiting of her right now.

Favorite line:

Eheh. It's been this blog title since day one. It's just that crepes is one of my favourite desserts too but most of all I really appreciate the feeling of carrying on living even if it's just for the small nice things in life. I may be worthless, and with no right to breathe; but crepes still make life worth living. I appreciate the sentiment. Ss/kk should learn from her it'd spare them a lot of trouble lol

brOTP: I LOVE LOVE LOVE HER RELATIONSHIP WITH ATSUSHI. It's really one of my favourite things. I think Kyouka is about the only person Atsushi truly cares about beyond his own selfishness and it's really heartwarming. They make each other's lives better every day and comfort each other that they're good people capable of doing good. I also think Kyouka really helps Atsushi in the way she's so blunt and straightforward, she helps him overcome his insecurities and second-guessing everything; she's a reassuring presence for him because he knows she wouldn't lie to him. And Atsushi allows her to be a child, and it's so sweet!!! They need each other in a lot of ways and they're so perfect for each other. Platonic soulmates fr. I also really like her relationship with Kenji, that too is so wholesome, I'm happy she has someone her same age she can do 14 y/os things with!!! Oh and I LOVE her relationship with Lucy, they're so much fun in their low-key animosity but I like to think they truly care about each other and that Lucy fully took Kyouka on as her annoying little sister she wouldn't hesitate to die for. AND the potential of Kyouka and Yosano, AND Fukuzawa. AND Akutagawa and Kouyou (more as like, relationships to explore rather than think they'd actually get along). I think about Kyouka's relationships with other characters a lot lol.

OTP: You know I'm fully convinced I would have been a full flagged Kyouka/Kenji supporter if only they were a little older, but the way I can really only think of them as children kinda makes it hard for me to say I ship them just because personally I don't really like to imagine them in a romantic picture in general (个_个) It's a shame because again I know what I like and this kind of sun/moon coded het ship is something I would have been really into ;;

nOTP: Likely Kyouka and Kenji for the reasons mentioned above :// It's just something I noticed I'm not very into when it's brought up in ss/kk fics. That said, it's not like I have any strong feeling against it either.

Random headcanon: About that, I really like to think she and Kenji are going to be partners when they're older.

Unpopular opinion: Not sure this goes here but right now I can't think of anything else– I do think that in the early chapters of the manga there was some level of writing Kyouka like she was Atsushi's love interest. Overall I think the manga verges way less in the “siblings” direction than the “eventually couple to-be living together” direction than the fandom makes it to be (I don't think they were ever directly associated to siblings in the manga, like, ever? I don't remember Atsushi ever saying he sees Kyouka as a little sister or something in those lines). Which I personally do not like, but in my reading interpretation that's the direction the manga was going for. That's why the chapter 15 opening is extremely distasteful to me, it really feels like pushing forward the stereotype of little dainty young house wife waking up early to prepare breackfast for her husband... And the way we know she's so young makes it downright disturbing. (But again, that's only as far as my understanding of the manga goes, feel free to disagree with me on this).

Song i associate with them: Shinkai Shoujo by Yuuyu-P!!!! It's just so her, both in the girly j-pop vibes and lyrics. It literally talks about a girl sinking in the darkness but managing to find the light in the end :')

Send me a character?

[jamisonwritestf2trash]

Spy? 🤌

Sexuality Headcanon: Bisexual, he'll steal your mom and your dad, so watch out!

Gender Headcanon: Genderfluid

A ship I have with this character: Engie and him <33333 I love them so much!

A BROTP I have with this character: Him and Scout being friends makes me sob. It makes me feel new emotions. Spy and Pyro being friends also makes me very happy.

A random headcanon: He has never been seen in public wearing an outfit under like 15k but secretly has a few old shirts that have sentimental value, he probably has a "world's best dad" shirt he got from Scout's mom that he wears to sleep on nights he feels really bad about the past </3

General opinion of the character: I actually don't hate him as much as I think I should. I like him, I like his son more, though 😨

[getvalentined]

Torn (For the Ask Game)

TORN

🎟️ SEXUALITY HEADCANON: Torn is biromantic and somewhere on the asexual spectrum. Not purely asexual, because he does find some people very sexually attractive, but it's pretty rare.

⚧️ GENDER HEADCANON: If asked, Torn would say that's none of anyone else's business.

💕 A SHIP: I honestly don't really ship Torn with anyone? I have an AU where he ends up with a version of Jak, but it's overly complicated and would never work in anything remotely closer to canon. I do think he's in love with Ashelin, but I also think he has terrible taste so it's not really something I'm into.

🖇️ A BROTP: Torn+Tess is probably my favorite, I love the implied character dynamic between them and I wish we'd gotten to see more of it. They seem to trust each other implicitly, and I'd love to know how they got to that point in their relationship!

🚫 A NOTP: Torn/Erol was reasonably popular back in the day but I'm really not into it. I appreciate a good hateship as much as the next person, but I don't think either of them would put in the effort to actually engage with each other in that way.

💭 A RANDOM HEADCANON: This one is pretty common now, but I've been in this fandom so long that it wasn't really the accepted fanon theory back when I was most active and thus I still treat it like my own headcanon—Torn's voice is Like That because his throat was slashed open during the assault on the Sacred Site that led to the loss of the old holy district. This attack also left him in a coma for multiple days, during which time Samos dedicated all his energy to helping him pull through, and Torn was presumed dead by Praxis and the rest of Haven's leadership. He survived, obviously, but honestly never fully recovered, which is why he always has a respirator (even if he's not using it) and very rarely works in the field anymore.

🗣️GENERAL OPINION: I'mma be honest, I fucking love Torn. I love his character development, the introduction as a gruff hardass and then the revelation that he's sentimental enough to put everything at risk for the safety of one person, followed by him standing up and refusing to wallow in his own guilt. Such a cool character. I can see why his people follow him so fervently.

(For the character ask game.)

[lych33dragoncookie]

Lychee dragon cookie for the ask meme!!!

grins

Sexuality Headcanon: ABSOLUTE SEX GOD DO NOT APPROACH NO MATTER WHAT OR WHO, AVOID AT ALL COSTS YOU WILL GET YOUR SOUL SUCKED THROUGH YOUR DICK AND GET YOUR PEPSI STOLEN. also probably somewhere on the aro spectrum? maybe demi idk Gender Headcanon: Agender, probably. Fem leaning of course, but considering all the dragons are they/them they probably have no concern for the standard human concept of gender. In my mind they're probably she/they, though.

Ship: Incredibly tough pick, I'm honestly mostly between Shadow Milk and Cotton Candy, depending on if I want them to be enabled (made worse) or if I want them to have nice things. Basically toxic yuri vs healthy yuri, your pick BROTP: Uuuuuuuhhh I. Genuinely don't think I have any options here? Lychee kinda just... Hates everyone, for the most part. Rambutan maybe??? But that could just as easily go on Ship, so... Yeah, no idea. NOTP: Obviously all of the dragons would go here big duh they're related, but as far as plausible ones go, again, no idea. They're even totally indifferent towards Snake Fruit, for the most part, so I don't think I can pick anyone here.

Random Headcanon: OK THIS ONE ISN'T RANDOM BUT LET'S GET THIS OUT OF THE WAY; THIS IS NOT A CHILD. I've seen quite a few people interpret them as such and while I somewhat understand the sentiment THAT'S A SUCCUBUS, THIS CHARACTER IS DESIGNED AND THEMED AFTER SUCCUBI, sure they don't actually have sex with you and steal your energy and/or kill you, but the visual traits are absolutely there and they do still charm/hypnotize people and steal their energy that way with a bunch of heart imagery attached, alongside the little black bat-like wings that are so customary in pop culture succubus depictions. And that's not even considering all the ridiculously slutty lines that they have. Seriously, it's almost baffling this kind of character can make it into Cookie Run, let alone Ovenbreak, but I'm here for it <3. Anyways, they still are probably the youngest of the dragons even if they're an adult. That, or... Maybe they're a runt? No following, smaller size, powers that focus less on actual destruction or raw power and more on getting what they need through other more manipulative methods... Hell, they're probably the weakest of the dragons, as far as physical force alone goes. Unless later updates give us evidence of the contrary, maybe it's the lack of worship and power compared to the other dragons that made them such a powerhungry conniving little shithead.

General opinion: ... I mean. Look at my blog.

This one is perfect. A match made in heaven for me. I love jesters, my one set of neopronouns is jest/jestself, my sona is a jester, and they have shaped my identity on a near fundamental level. Add on top of that the succubus motifs, the :3 mouth and the little fangs, the personality, the axe (second favorite weapon right behind hammers), the color palette (dark purple, pink, black, white and greenish cyan?! fuck yes please), how much of a whore they are in general, their entire vibe, and... Yeah, they're perfect. Not only are they just like me fr, but I am wildly attracted to them and absolutely adore very single second they're onscreen. I love you Lychee Dragon Cookie you're the absolute best <3

A NOTP I have with said character: uhhh I don't really have one tbh.

Pearl from Pearl

u are my goat Im sending everyone who has ever entertained me w these lil ask games kisses forever

Sexuality HC: well in terms of the story I do believe she is a straight girl w said heterosexuality tilted a bit to the left ykno </3 doomed to the confines of it in her era like everything else . I think she could get a little toxic lezzie w it tho esp during when Howard’s gone… she had another of that lil weak failed moment in X w Maxine is all^_^ she should still marry me tho😚😚

Gender HC: cis girl and it’s so joever for her . Girlhood horrors speedrun record

A ship I have with said character: pearl/Howard even from the few smidges we have of em is everything. twisted “all we have is each other” love is everything.

A BROTP I have with said character: idkkkk I thought her and Mitzy was cute ❤️in a less mean world they woulda stayed besties…

A NOTP I have with said character: n/a pearl Can go cray w whoever she wants

A random headcanon: she still has all her childhood ribbons & certain dance outfit pieces in a box of sentimental items 😢also yhhh I think around immediately post-Pearl she couldn’t look at meat dishes without feeling sick for a while. Well until she was the Sick Thing prowling the farm ❤️❤️. I think she’d have one of those pregnancy/childbirth phobias

General Opinion: literally sincerely truly she’s my joker my heart my love my everything…. Ti west and Mia goth don’t know how much they’ve done for me and my emotionally unstitched heart w Pearl shessss sooo . Wifey FOREVER!

SEND ME A CHARACTER AND I’LL DO THE FOLLOWING^

[pristina-nomine]

so my knowledge about her is entirely limited to your posts, but may I request ophélie from la passe miroir for the character ask? 💌 very curious about this series!

Ah, I'm so happy that my posts got you curious about it ✨ (I’m also so sorry for the super late reply, but this week stuff just kept happening and I haven’t had a moment to write anything) Anyway! Thanks for allowing me to indulge in more obnoxious gushing u.u

Favorite thing about her: that she's devoid of any sentimentalism, even if the plot constantly puts her through super angsty scenarios. And that in her character arc of opening up to others and accepting the Mortifying Ordeal of Being Known, this part of her never really changes; she comes to realize that feelings are not necessarily melodramatic, that she can love and love deeply, but always in her own way

Least favorite thing about her: even though I really like the general theme of Thorn’s wounds running too deep to be magically cured by him falling for Ophélie, at times in tome 3 I did wish she wasn’t that accommodating to him. Which, again, is a fundamental point of her personal growth and objectively well done (and he’s like. very much accommodating to her as well), but there are a couple of specific scenes where it rubs me the wrong way a bit, can’t help it

Favorite line: Il n’avait pas le droit!!!! Character thesis statement. Iconique. Also, given that the whole series is her internal monologue, honorary mention to the resolve moment in the final paragraphs of tome 1

brOTP: so many to choose from, so I’ll go with: the scarf. Unironically one of my favorite characters.

OTP: Thorn, of course. I love that they’re one and the same obstinate communication disaster, that he realizes it almost immediately and does nothing at all to shy away from or hide his feelings, while she needs to go through her whole journey to understand and accept this new part of herself. Excited to read in which other way they’ll misunderstand each other in tome 4! (I’m not actually. Let them be content, at least for a while, please)

nOTP: given that Ophélie notp-ies herself with everyone aha I'd say Renard, Archibald, anyone of the dudes she forms a strong friendship with, basically (I’m not as opposed with the gals for some reason? But I’m also very monogamous with my ships, so still ain’t it)

Random headcanon: this may be more of a general lore thing because I also apply it to other characters, but the use of "of Anima" - ie the place she comes from - as a surname stand-in, Middle Ages style (mainly because I hate tagging characters with only their first name so I had to make something up aha)

(Wait, now that I think about it, they do use the Family Spirits names in the wedding ceremony... that's pretty much the canon equivalent of a surname... well, there goes my headcanon)

Unpopular opinion: welp, I don't even know what the popular opinions are, the fandom here is so minuscule aha. One thing may be that I'm very adamant about her being in her early twenties, or 19 at least? If she was a teen her uneasiness about romance/sexuality and frustration at feeling "half a woman" and "a child" simply wouldn't hit as hard

Song I associate with her: Alice's Theme by Danny Elfman!!

Favorite picture of her: this picture of an Edwardian young lady who looks precisely how I see her with my mind's eye, minus the scarf

Bonus: these stunning portraits by @fantasy-seal and Ilenia Pastore

all three jashlings for the ask game!!

gender headcanon: agender , any/neos user

a random headcanon: how can you expect me to not make him autistic. he is autistic. autism. xe is so autism. are you seein this shit. dear LOED. this fucker has horrendous touch autism. horrendous attention. horrendous tolerance to bad sensory (twins. just like me fr)! no but other than this mind makes zir own prosthetics. i think there will be rare moments of peace where soul will find heart and mind together painting minds prosthetics and talking. until soul says something and theyre like "WHAT NO !!! cannot BELIEF youd accuse me of this" and then they're back to screaming into eachothers faces. soul kept the first prosthetic from the first loop that they painted for sentimental purposes. BTW !!! he's mute!! speak no evil

general opinion over said character: if u know me you know that mind is my silly stinky old man with bad facial hair and npd. byte is my silly. i think he deserves to be a lil evil. i would/HJ. i support his wrongs.

Heart

sexuality headcanon: abroromantic

a ship i have with said character: no

a BROTP i have with said character: mind and soul. u cannot tell me these bitches didnt used to get along so well. i think they are so dysfunctional in a zim and gir way. what is wrong with them /aff no i think that despite all of the horrendous things they did/do to eachother i think they all have their little ways of showing their affection. they suck at it but they're trying. and at least they're trying. they're improving! methinks. and i think heart would be one of the first to start to show it. (WELL NOT FOR LONG WHEN THE LOOP STARTS UP AGAIN)

a NOTP i have with said character: * umm anything to do with whole ig? im not sure but i think i saw smth with whole a long time ago and that was like...no.......that doesnt feel right. but i dont have a strong enough stance to be point it out. methinks bc of my own hcs it would just be a bit odd (AMONG OTHER ISSUES)

a random headcanon: heart's a very sentimental guy. he has stuff scattered around his room from when they were all kids. teddy bears, badges, whatever you can think of he has in there. he kept wholes comforter when she was like..teeny tiny. if soul didn't get there first, he would've kept that prosthetic i mentioned before. BTW !!!! (obviously) he's blind !!! see no evil!

general opinion over said character: my beloved. i think he is a little messed up. but he is messed up. and i won't fix that. there is something severely wrong with her. my least favourite /aff . she's beautiful the way he is. i support any CCCC wrongs. no but i'm tired of people babying him. ADMIT HE'S FUCKED UP AND THAT YOU LIKE HER. IF I CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU !!!!!!! THEY'RE ALL FUCKED UP just because he's blind doesn't mean he's not the worst person on earth/AFF

Soul

sexuality headcanon: pansexual

gender headcanon: transmasc , he/they/it/(neos?) user

a ship i have with said character: no

a BROTP i have with said character: like the rest of my answers . heart and mind. i think that despite all of the REAL bad things he says about them and to them they will always care for them. he'll stay up worrying about them and making them small things and he'll tell them it loves them but they'll never do it without a teasing insult accompanying it. big fuckin loser

a NOTP i have with said character: * umm anything to do with whole ig? im not sure but i think i saw smth with whole a long time ago and that was like...no.......that doesnt feel right. but i dont have a strong enough stance to be point it out. methinks bc of my own hcs it would just be a bit odd (AMONG OTHER ISSUES)

a random headcanon: had a sweatervest phase. being so for real. i know they did. this little loser has a collection of them . he loves his sweatervests to death. it thinks its SOOOO fashionable and makes them look cool (makes them look and feel 60yrs old. inherits back problems and is suddenly squinting at everything he reads). BTW !!! he's deaf!! hear no evil!!

general opinion over said character: i like this guy. very relatable. i think i just like characters that are miserable and act like annoying ratty teenagers to cope with their agonies because who are they if they admit they need help ? i think he's fucklin FUCKED UP. fucked up so much. but i like that abt him! i like this about all of them! ALL of them are fucked up and unforgiveable but it makes em loveable methinks!

[tdbowie]

zoey for the asks game? :)

zoeyy

Sexuality Headcanon: bisexual zoey :)

Gender Headcanon: i saw this a while back but i like the idea of transmasc zoey!!

A ship I have with said character: zoey NEEDS to get her yuri on. zokota, zawn, joey, annezoey, zolana gwoey stoey heathoey (hoey) i don't have a preference for any specific ship i just think she should've kissed girls.

A BROTP I have with said character: zoey and scott!! all stars could've expanded on their rivalry i thought it was fun :) brotp as in they become reluctant friends i think

A NOTP I have with said character: doey... get duncan AWAY from her

A random headcanon: zoey and sierra are mutuals on tumblr. tumblrina zoey is real to me

General Opinion over said character: for the most part i'm neutral on zoey! i liked her way more in roti than all stars, but i think that's a pretty common sentiment. her design is..... one of my least favourites i'll admit. she WILL kiss girls aaaand post

[cool-island-songs]

Craig

thank you for the ask! (from this ask game)

1: sexuality headcanon

gay gay homosexual gay. i think i might have a fem!craig in a WIP who's more pan/fluid, but generally speaking and esp with dude craig, my preference is to read him as super gay and occasionally repressed about it

2: otp - creeeeeeeeee

3: brotp

I like exploring a lot of platonic dynamics with craig though far more of that is in my longer works in progress. i'm big into crimmy and crolkien broships and i do like cryde and crenny bros but i see them as more casual/superficial ig. fics like "ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space" sold me on a staig friendship/ acquaintanceship potentially being illuminating for both dudes, at least for a brief period. something about being a guy's foil that allows for that

4: notp

i support the craig bangin' troops 🫡 but pretty much this exact sentiment lmao:

i see him as pretty demi all around and i'm an insane creek person, so if i'm exploring non-creek craig ships, u kno, don't expect endgame

5: first headcanon that pops into my head

booger wall. first kid to grow pubes and way too proud of it. textbooks in his lap during math class bc tweek's hideous snort laugh makes him pop wood (sorry idk why it's all gross puberty stuff rn lol)

6: favorite line from this character

philosophy baby moment from pandemic 2: "I realized that we don't always have control over what happens to us. We are but players on the stage of life."

7: one way in which I relate to this character

i too got home from school every day and watched the same thing over and over

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character

he has some pretty cringe one-liners in combat in TFBW, but then you get to punch and fart on him, so it's aight

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave?

craig sucks i love him

[roxannepolice]

hi! missy for the character asks? :)

Of course, but after putting threegado together it's only fair to also combine twissy for @lukifisk 😀

1: sexuality headcanon - after answering this question a couple of times, I think it is safe to say TL are what humans would call pansexual in the sense that their preferences aren't very directional (let's face it this is the most evolutionarily rational direction to take in a reproductive organs shifting species (the Master is generally Doctorsexual tho)) - what does differ across regenerations is libido level, as in how likely they are to get horny (and in the Doctor's case that usually increases when the Master's around); so in this context we have a fascinating set where Twelve is pretty much an ace while Missy is permanently horny - luckily, Twelve is not a sex averse asexual, and willing to perform for a romantic partner, so we probably have something of a pythonic scene of Missy (and let's be fair, Clara and River too) passionately riding and confessing most ardent affection for that old man while he tries to follow Neptunian equivalent of Kama Sutra (getting himself acquaintanced with it in the process)

2: otp - each other, of course; just let them have their much postponed French riviera honeymoon BBC

3: brotp - I mean. apart from the Doctor Missy interacted with an afterlife Zuckerberg, Clara, Nardole, passingly with some UNIT members and Bill, and her own past. that's not much to choose from. so I'll go with Clara, just because this is also what I go with for Twelve (also consider two characters who know the most about the Doctor; Rose and Sarah Jane having a giggle would be nothing condiered to what these two'd get up to): romantic elements I fully acknowledge aside, I think it must have been really refreshing for the Doctor to have a companion that was so much like them; and weird assumptions about straight corellation between age and skin collagen levels aside, his truthfulness with her was very powerful

4: notp - I don't really have one for Twelve, just because his asexuality is so obvious that I'd assume if he's shipped with someone there's a good reason for it? for Missy, the male presenting Masters all being horny for her specifically, yeah selfcest is a good metaphor for narcissism inherent in this character which is what I keep repeating to myself about season 10 finale, but when Masterful (which I LOVE srsly the Doctor could only dream of having such a good 50th birthday celebration) doubled down on it I just thought honey your attempts at heterosexuality are about as convincing as those sybil breasts slapped by Michelangelo on what's clearly boy models

5: first headcanon that pops into my head - I remember it well from Gigi is their song and Bill plays it on her smartphone each time they interact, BBC just muted it for copyright reasons

6: favorite line from this character - for Twelve, Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life. An unimportant life. A life without privilege. The boy who died on the river, that boy's value is your value. That's what defines an age. That's what defines a species. - wow. just wow. this is such growth from the Time Lord Victorious who'd evaluate individual life from it's Historic importance and the face that almost annihilated a civilization (for the second time!) for one person, also extratextually excellent way to measure the level of civilizational progress; for Missy Your version of good is not absolute. It's vain, arrogant and sentimental. If you're waiting for me to become all that, I'm going to be here for a long time yet. somewhat contradictory to the sentiment of the Twelve quote? yeah maybe but this marks the last time as of season 13 the Master represented a philosophy contradictory to the Doctor's (or, for that matter, anything more than a snivelling canine of a chorus to how awesome the Doctor is) that, despite the text denying it much right, has a respectable place in human ethics: deontology versus pragmatism, yes gimme the Doctor Master dialectic heading for recognition that nothing is simple anytime

7: one way in which I relate to this character - Twelve is... pretty much the Doctor I identify with the most? yeah man be this intellect before emotion bitch that shows how those two are nowhere near contradictory (trying to derive ethics from thinking and keeping contradictory or inconclusive evidence to yourself for the same reasons you don't tell people there's going to be a financial crisis: they will storm the banks and a crisis will in fact occur; they pound that into your brain in every Polish sociology class) and will raise hell if you cannot move heaven for the people you care for (just don't cut out people you haven't yet formed to your liking from the caring part); for Missy, I too aspire to express all my moods through piano and would have Peter Capaldi grab my boob within 2 minutes from meeting him not even for sex reasons just to see him flustered 🙃

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character - for Twelve, informing newly met people Clark Kent is Superman: I get that it makes sense for plot development reasons, but man you don't just say these things! also consistently insulting John Simm's pretty squishy round catface while he's getting an obvious libido rise from the other's proximity; for Missy, not caring for her hairstyle while in prison, wtf gurl, demand an avocado and banana based hair mask in addition to the LHC and pony!!

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? - look there's a lot I like about Moffat's writing, just as there's a lot I dislike about it, but putting the Doctor slightly further down the problematic fave side than the Master (while keeping them mostly in character) deserves proper appreciation; they're both on the problematic fave side of the spectrum though

Ch'en Arknights, and Weiss RWBY? (Disregarding any V9 influence.) Also, I know you've said you aren't up to date on or remember Bonkle lore, but just as a general question, any thoughts on the "love isn't canon" shenanigans there?

Ch'en Arknights

NOTP: Ch'en x Talulah. I don't much care for incest, a sentiment a number of Arknights fanartists do not seem to share.

BROTP: Ch'en x Bagpipe. This one's kinda canon since they were really close friends during their academy days and I really like the idea of sweet, happy Bagpipe winning a surly and driven Ch'en over.

OTP: Ch'en x Hoshiguma. The classic. Love this one so much.

Second choice pairing: Ch'en x Bagpipe, Ch'en x Swire. Both of these are really good in different ways. Swire and Ch'en bickering is hilarious.

Fluffy pairing: Ch'en x Bagpipe. Piper's one of the nicest, friendliest operators in Rhodes Island. Ch'en can't do fluffy to save her life, but Bagpipe is there to handle it for both of them.

Angsty pairing: Ch'en x Hoshiguma. Chapter 7. Just... Chapter fucking 7.

Favorite poly ship: Ch'en x Hoshiguma x Swire (x Lin Yuhsia). Let the LGBT Guard Department have 3 girlfriends each. They deserve it.

Weirdest pairing: I don't have a super weird Ch'en pairing but in a non-romantic sense watching her deal with Candela Sanchez during Dossoles Holiday was amusing. Candela's such an Awful Fucking Dog.

Weiss RWBY

NOTP: Ironweiss (Ironwood x Weiss). Please.

BROTP: Freezerburn (Yang x Weiss), White Rose (Weiss x Ruby), Monochrome (Weiss x Blake). See the Yang post for my thoughts on Freezerburn.

OTP: It was White Rose until Volume 9 made me significantly less high on Bumbleby (Blake x Yang), but now it's Freezerburn.

Second choice pairing: Freezerburn pre-Volume 9, White Rose post-Volume 9. Monochrome and North Pole/Schneekos (Pyrrha x Weiss) after that.

Fluffy pairing: White Rose, Freezerburn. The sisters are very sweet and would absolutely adore Weiss and shower her with love.

Angsty pairing: Monochrome. There is so much potential for angst and conflict with Weiss's status as the heiress to the largest company on Remnant, known for abusing Faunus labor, and Blake's status as a prominent Faunus rights activist who has outright attacked Weiss's family's company before.

Favorite poly ship: Sigh... Bee's Schnees, I guess? See the Yang post.

Weirdest pairing: I don't really ship Weiss with anyone other than her teammates and Pyrrha, but whatever the hell Weiss x Marrow is called sounds incredibly funny. It has a similar foundation to Monochrome, Weiss, at least, seems to like Marrow, and there's a lot that can be done with their fight in Volume 7.

As for the Bionicle lore... I admittedly don't know the context there, but from what I remember of reading the various Bionicle books, love was very much present in that universe in some sense, and I'm not very fond of any kind of setting where love simply doesn't exist. I feel like I am missing a ton of information that would inform my opinion on this specific question, though.

hi happi!!!! for the ask game how about terry jr? :D also i hope you're having a good day!! <33333

I'm having a wonderful day, ty, Lemon Drop!!! Hope you are, too 💛💛💛

Sexuality Headcanon: Bi!!!!! The bisexual community favors him 😌 He is such a bicon in my eyes. And perhaps a dash of asexuality as well (I am very biased - biaced - in this, I'm aware sdbajkbfs)!

Gender Headcanon: Demiboy, imo. He still prefers he/him pronouns and things but sometimes he just feels like,,, not a guy! He isn't super vocal about it or anything, but he'll wear a skirt or dress every now and then.

A ship I have with said character: Aside from the canon relationship (Terry and Veronica my beloveds. Veronica I am so sorry for the information you may or may not learn about your husband 😭😭😭), I really like the idea of Terry and Lark! Lark is trying so hard to make himself worse but Terry is just like. Absolutely the fuck not. And bullies him into finding love and happiness again. Also shoutout to whoever came up with the ship name for them - Gun Control will never fail to be funny to me <333

A BROTP I have with said character: TERRY JR AND GRANT *cries for one million years* They're soooooooo fucking much are you kidding me. They were friends!!! They endured the horrors together!!! They confided in each other!!! Mr. Burch say sike right now. Please I'm too fragile for this ;-;

A NOTP I have with said character: Uhhhhh none, really! (Chronic multishipper as far as the kiddads are concerned)

A random headcanon: Gets Scary the COOLEST mall goth shit whenever she does well on a test or just because. Scary has no fucking idea where he got these band tees and fun chokers and earrings from because they look far too unique to be at any of the mainstream goth stores (and that is because they were originally from Terry Jr.'s own personal teen emo era - he had initially kept them for the sentimental value, but now that his stepdaughter likes this style he figures he can save her some money and give her some stuff she'll actually wear since Veronica tends to miss the mark in the clothes department nowadays).

General Opinion over said character: Most perfectest boy to ever live. Opinion: I fucking miss him I hope he comes back. *Eggman voice* I miss my wife, Lem *sobs into hands*
