I'm gonna answer these as if it's later in Ocha's story and she's already making googly eyes at her human love interest because that's fun for me (Iris still being designed). >:3c

Answers under the cut! (I can type a lot of words.)

(No, really.)

2. How loosely or strictly do they use the word ‘friend’?

Ocha was very lonely growing up. She had a very strange relationship (and power dynamic) with the people around her who were not related to her, and thus was isolated. Ocha uses the word "friend" almost exclusively for animals, or people of a species other than her own.

(TL;DR: extra strict)

15. What’s the most obvious difference between their behavior at home around her family, at work in public (no family), at school training, with friends, and when they’re alone?

Changed a few of the places because the worldbuilding context didn't quite fit. I am not actually sure if there is a formal education system in her home, and Ocha fled before she could properly take her place at her "job."

Around Family

Ocha almost completely shuts down around her remaining family. It's almost scary how much she'll go from her normal self to totally blank. And by "family" I mean specifically her grandmother/the whole unit. She would react to her father with cold anger/distance. The only living family member she has a positive relationship with is Gramps, a man that isn't related to her by blood or by marriage - he's a trusted family friend and Ocha's rock.

(TL;DR: mostly flat affect)

Training

Ocha HATES the combat training her grandma is so fond of. It's one of the few times she'd get frustrated enough to be openly angry at her grandmother, or openly angry in general. The same goes for all of her training, with varying levels of frustration.

(TL;DR: uncharacteristically whiny)

In Public (without family)

In her new community (in public), Ocha is friendly and diligent in helping take care of the community. She's still got walls up, but much less than with her family. She's mostly just reveling in being a normal person.

(TL;DR: friendly and willing to help, but oddly distant)

Around Friends

Ocha's animal friends get a very unguarded version of her, but the friendship is far less complex with them. Her friendships with people are rarer, but they do happen. Ultimately, Ocha is friendlier with friends, but still oddly distant.

(TL;DR: has mile high walls that go down to building-high walls with friends)

Alone

Beware, when Ocha is alone is when she does the most reckless stuff. When she learned a school of magic by herself, when normally it would take careful supervision in an apprenticeship to start practicing, she was alone. If she feels trapped or bored, she WILL be a problem. Otherwise, she enjoys the peace and quiet. She also tends to talk to herself when she thinks she's alone.

(TL;DR: up to no good when unhappy)

33. How do they greet someone they dislike / hate?

If Ocha dislikes a person, she'll be very stiff or formal with them, but still not unkind. Unless the person is a member of her immediate family. If it's a family member, Ocha is not above saying some really fucked up things out of anger.

There are very few people Ocha truly hates. Perhaps even only one. The supreme ruler of The Conclave has a lot to answer for, after all. For them, Ocha would react with smoldering anger under a thin veil of niceties.

(TL;DR: veiled animosity and avoidance)

34. How do they greet someone they like / love?

If Ocha likes a person, she makes a special effort to greet them. Ocha is a very touchy person, so hugs, holding hands, and shoulder pats are fairly normal for greetings.

Her biggest tell if she's got a crush on someone that she's obviously friendly with is that she'll be a bit more restrained with touching.

(TL;DR: she's a hugger)

48. Who would they say ‘yes’ to if invited to do something they abhorred / strongly didn’t want to do?

Children. Ocha would without question do something she absolutely hated if a child really wanted to do the thing with her (within reason).

After she starts developing feelings for Iris, Ocha would without question (and without saying anything about her own preferences) say yes if Iris asked her to do something she actually hated doing.

Ocha will also do quite a few things she doesn't like if she thinks it will truly help someone else.

(TL;DR: good with kids, and a bit self sacrificial)

57. What’s a simple daily activity / motion that they mess up often?

Despite Ocha's father being a tailor, Ocha's stitches are absolutely abysmal. It wasn't for lack of trying, he tried to teach her. At the very least, Ocha can repair something and it will stay repaired, even if the repair is a bit of an eyesore. It's a bit important when you live with people that don't necessarily wear clothes the same way as you, but you don't feel comfortable walking around nude.

(TL;DR: seamwork doesn't run in the family)

Asking for Asks! I'll update this with any art/character stuff. I am asking for questions for Ocha!

I give a lot of my nonhuman species the ability to purr. Not all of them, but like, I've at least imagined all of them purring.

I have a disorder that makes me want to headcanon every nonhuman character with the ability to purr regardless if it makes sense for their kind or not. It's called being right. With enough research i could justify a tree purring if i wanted to

[nickalart]

The current OC pairing I've been thinking about. I might feature these two in my anthology series, but for now I'm still trying to get Iris' design down.

I don't have many human characters... she may actually be my only one for now.

[nickalart]

Been slowly adding characters to my Toyhou.se! It's been fun doing portraits again with slightly tweaked designs for the new setting.

Tommykaira is a deep tuning car that responds to the driver's skill as much as you do your best. Improved response and balance The new SR20, which uses an aluminum block to increase torque and power, is the base for this engine tune. This improves the overall balance of the car, including front and rear weight distribution. It has an excellent finish in terms of front turnability and power-to-weight ratio. It's not flashy tuning, but because this is the basic of the basics, Tommykaira's technology is fully demonstrated in the finish, boasting a high degree of perfection that cannot be imitated by others. In order to improve the efficiency of intake and exhaust (improvement of combustion efficiency), not only was it changed to a high camshaft, but also the entire exhaust system, from the exhaust manifold (octopus foot) to the muffler, was changed to the original. It is a comprehensive mechanical tuning including the engine control unit (computer Chitune). N.A. Engine tuning is cumulative. It's not a big trick, but the accumulation of small and trivial improvements, changes, and adjustments that lead to power-ups. Tommykaira's principle of "minimum modification, maximum effect" is used here as well. Emphasis on balance with suspension. In order to bring out the characteristics of the natural engine feel, Tommykaira has also strengthened the suspension. The combination of original sports shock absorbers (except for the basic model) and reinforced springs provides an extremely controllable suspension. Power is transmitted to the road surface as traction without waste. The cornering machine N.A., where you can enjoy the grip and control of the start with the accelerator, is equipped with a viscous type LSD as standard, and the fun of driving is condensed into this one machine. <From above) ●It is also the basis of Hi-Cam N.A. tune with changed profile. ●Stainless steel exhaust manifold (octopus foot). N.A. has changed everything from here to the muffler. ●Computer tuning is now common sense. The engine control unit has also been reprogrammed. ●N.A. The only proof of this is this small emblem. There is no difference in appearance.

Tommy kaira SUPER SPORTS TUNED SILVIA COUPE M20Si SPECIFICATION: Straight 4-Cylinders 1998cc DOHC 16valves turbocharger with intercooler, MAX power (net) 235ps/6200rpm, MAX torque 29.5Kg-m/4900rpm, 16inch wheels & brake system: 2 piston aluminum caliper + ventilated disk completed by Tommykaira. Silvia has been resolutely following the orthodox FR layout in the midst of one after another becoming FF. Following the "Tommykaira M18S" based on the first generation Silvia, we have developed a new "Tommykaira M20" using this SR20DE (T) as a material.The base vehicle is basically a minor change with only the engine changed. However, while focusing on tuning the engine, Tommykaira has a new lineup of 2 models and 4 types (total of 8 models). It consists of six main parts.First, the front spoiler features a powerful design with large-diameter air intakes.The left and right sides wrap around to the bottom of the front fenders to create a sense of unity with the front part. The three-dimensional form that uses many curved surfaces emphasizes its beauty, especially with the highly concentrated body paint color.The second component is the front mask sandwiched between the headlights. Painted in the same color as the body and fitted with a Tommykaira metal emblem, the Tommykaira M20Si's "face" reflected in the rearview mirror is dominated by these two aero parts. Now, if you meet the Tommykaira M20SI on the highway, this rear view will show off after being overtaken. The rear skirt, which has the same image as the front, is even the size of the license plate, just like the image of the rear of a Group C car introduced by ARO. This is also a one-piece design that wraps around to the side and is completed as an extremely powerful design. ●The tail fin is inherited from the formula machine. The biggest feature is the rear spoiler. There are two types of this, one is the "tail fin" (standard on the Stage 2 specification) design that fixes the center part to the trunk with an aluminum stay, a technique seen in the rear wing of that formula machine. The best part is that the angle of the fins can be adjusted steplessly, just like a racing car. Moreover, the joints are elaborately made with pillow balls.It is the best aero parts that gives you a sense of fun and a motorsports image. - Show off your back! "Wing Robo". In addition, the more extreme is the "Wing Robo" (standard on the Stage 3 spec). This electric variable rear spoiler is a type that allows you to adjust the angle of the wing from the driver's seat in three stages, and comes with a high-mounted stop lamp. The downforce effect at high speed driving is intense! This is one thing. The two rear wings, which emphasize the overall high-deck style, create a sporty image while expressing a unique sense of play. Last is the side step. The flow of the wheel arch from the front to the rear is designed in a natural way. It is shaped with the rectification effect as it is. All of Tommykaira's aero parts are within the size of the original without exceeding the outer dimensions at all, so it is safe to handle and park.
