1 - 5 from the f/ovember useless info ask meme for Aqua and/or Clio! ( @dzvagabond )

Aqua: “I can take these ones, if that’s fine with you!”

(question source: "F/Ovember ask meme: useless info version" by simonlynch)

what’s the weirdest petname Aria has ever called you? what’s the weirdest petname you’ve ever called her? - "Weirdest? Hmm.. Oh! There was one time on a mission when she stumbled in the middle of saying “darling”, so it instead came out as “darkling”, which- even if she hadn’t been in the middle of falling over, I think would’ve made us both stop and be confused! From what she’s told me of what Darklings are, she’s the one who’s closer to them anyway, so it really wouldn’t fit me at all..! We laughed about that a lot together, hehe. Then, for the other way around, uh.. I didn’t think it was that weird, but I used the phrase “oh, you’re a star” once about her when she did something, and- she just looked at me like it made no sense to her for a moment. Or that it was wrong to say for some reason. I know that stars are worlds and not people, but even then, it stood out a lot at the time.. I wonder.. Could it have had something to do with Lina?”

how easy is it for you to get her to laugh? - "Well.. that depends on the type of laugh, I would say. She’ll often use a little one to react to something or lead in to what she’s saying, especially if she has her mask on. But it’s rare for her to really burst out laughing - it’s only really when we’re talking together that I’ve heard her do it, especially about something funny rather than when she's taking down a villain. She’s just not really the type of person to be so.. overzealous? With her emotions. But they are in there, somewhere!”

who folds the laundry and who unloads the dishwasher? - "Oh, we do those things together! To use your examples, I fold the clothes once they’re out of the dryer, but then I pile them up next to me so that Aria can put them all away as I’m folding them. Then, I’m the one who takes things out of the dishwasher because sometimes they drip, but then I just put them on a towel on the countertop next to me, so she goes back and forth between that and wherever things live. I don’t mind doing that kind of thing all by myself, but Aria finds it more of a chore, so.. whenever I realise things need doing, she makes an effort to help me out “to make up for that”, in her own words.”

what’s your second favourite memory of Aria? - "My second-favourite instead of my favourite.. Hmm.. I think that would have to be her bequeathing. You see, after Aria was able to move into her Replica body, she wasn't sure whether she'd still be able to wield a Keyblade. It was.. also rather broken by that point in time, anyway. So, instead, we realised I could hold a bequeathing ceremony for her, since I'm a Keyblade Master and she also never went through one back in the past. I said the words a little differently to how they're meant to go, but that part didn't matter - making it something special to the both of us, and seeing the apprehension on her face turn into pride as she called forth a brand-new Keyblade that was truly hers.. It was really so special."

what’s Aria’s pet peeve and does it apply to you? - "Oh, uh, she has quite a few of them, to be honest. She has a lot less patience with people than I do, for instance.. And she also gets more annoyed by sounds, even if there are some I find annoying too. I think the main pet peeve I can think of for her, though, would be when people put themselves in charge without having earned their position properly. Aria is not the type of person to automatically listen to someone just because they have a certain role or title - they need to have demonstrated that they actually know what they're talking about, otherwise she won't take demands from them at all. She said it used to get her in trouble with her party leader back in the age of fairytales.. but, whether because there aren't those kinds of authority figures around us as much now or what, it at least isn't something that comes up too much!

I hope that all those answers were okay - thank you so much for sending them all in!"

Good evening Sam! Do you mind answering 7 & 13 from the useless info ask meme? (@dzvagabond)

🪶💙 "Personally I prefer sending them notes, hand-written. I even use my own feathers and ink!" He'd clear his throat, sounding rather proud of himself. "I write formally, with honour and with proper etiquette! ...Berry has shown me how to use a phone... and I do keep it just to see their messages... and while their writing isn't nearly as proper as mine.. it's nice when she does message me.."

"Favourite and least favourite movie or book.... hmm.. that's a tough one.." He's tap his beak in thought. "Well... me and Berry have different interests and tastes. I prefer reading about history, while they're more of the fantasy type. I often catch her reading books such as Alice in Wonderland, Wings of Fire or even horror like Hill House! ...None of those are really my taste, but they seem to enjoy it."

Dr. Jones! How did you and Ruby meet, and what's your ideal date with them? (@dzvagabond)

🏺Well, Ruby and I actually met in our college days. We both had a shared interest in ancient history, especially the artifacts left behind by those long-gone civilizations. But there were so many girls back then that it was hard to keep track, so I completely forgot about her until we met again all these years later... No, I can't lie about this. Ruby was always special. That's why, when she was hired at the same university that I teach at, I was actually nervous to see her again. Because I knew that the last time we spoke was the day that we split up, the day I broke her heart... 🏺

🏺 But that's a story for another time. Nowadays we've worked things out - even if she sure as hell didn't make it easy - and been trying to make up for lost time. My ideal date would be going out for something like a nice steak dinner, but we seem to spend most of our nights together grading essays or researching ancient artifacts. That's not my idea of a romantic evening, but just having her with me does make the grind a bit more bearable.🏺

what's your favorite movie to watch together?

Psycho, by Hitchcock. We both enjoy horror, though I only really enjoy films with a more psychological element. The doctor seems to enjoy all horror though, including those monster movies. They are more than free to watch those with Dr Clark.

I did also enjoy Les yeux sans visage while we were in France, but we haven't seen it again since then.

9-12 from the useless info ask meme for Vagabond Cookie if you please! (@dzvagabond )

Hey there! I'll be happy to answer both!

9: What's their beige flag?

Beige flag, huh? First time I've heard that question... it's something that's not good or bad but is still pretty notable, right? Or... something along the lines of that...

Anyways-! My answer for this is that they're very protective of bugs. As in, they'll get pre~tty upset if you hurt or kill them. They nearly cried when I stepped on a beetle once and seemed upset about it for the rest of the day.

It hasn't caused any problems so far, but it's still interesting...

12: What's your favorite outfit they've worn?

That's an easy one- taking into consideration that they mostly wear the same style of outfit every time I see them.

Once they came over with a fancy, steampunk-like outfit? They were really excited about it, saying something about getting a job in the future.

Don't completely understand what they meant by that, but I'd say that one's my favorite! And from the way they acted they'd probably agree with that too.

Aqua! How did you and your partner meet?? (@dzvagabond)

Aqua: "Oh, hello! Thank you for your question.

Aria and I first met shortly after I had fallen into the realm of darkness. She'd been trapped in there for a very long time already, and according to her, it was common for powerful Heartless to go after any new worlds or people who ended up there, so she would often track them to find out what they'd detected. I could definitely vouch for this, considering how many I'd had to fight off in the short time I'd been there - it was like the light in my heart was a beacon for them.

Long story short, Aria came to my rescue when I was attacked by a particularly strong formation of Heartless called a Demon Tide; she was able to fight it off without much trouble at all, and then she helped me get to somewhere less exposed. I was.. really not in a good place at that time, but she was the first other person I'd come across in the dark, and so.. I may have unintentionally broken down at her feet, what with everything that had been going on before then. There, ah.. there was a lot of crying. She really didn't know how to react, but she stayed there next to me anyway, and.. that meant I was able to finally let out all the feelings that had been building up inside me, and I think doing that helped me a lot. Even if I felt so vulnerable at the time.

Still, though, to move on from that - once I had pulled myself together and we could finally introduce ourselves to each other, it was only then that Aria found out how much time had passed in the realm of light since she had left it. We ended up talking for quite some time, and from there, decided to stick together for the sake of finding a way out. To think that she was from the age of fairytales.. an ancient age, as I know it.. Honestly, it took a long time to sink in. There was still a lot that I didn't know about her, and back then, the fact she harboured so much darkness still stood out as a sign of danger to me.. But she was the only person I had to turn to in there. So, I had to test the waters, so to speak.. and I'm forever glad that I did decide to trust her. She's taught me so much.

I hope that that answers your question! Thank you again for sending it in. Have a great day!"

Buddy Holly - which of you tends to be more protective - you or S/I? how do you feel about that fact? "I'm the one who is more protective and I don't mind it at all since I'm very strong."

Buttercup - what are your favorite pet names/nicknames for S/I? and do you like the pet names/nicknames that S/I uses for you?

"My favorite pet names for her would be bunny, sweetie and babe. Yes, I love the pet names that she uses for me."

From the Casual Ask Meme: 1-5 for Dr. Richtofen!! (@dzvagabond )

((HELLO @dzvagabond THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE😭😭😭 IM SO SORRY IT TOOK A BIT TO ANSWER))

“Ah, welcome back!” Edward gladly greets you with a smile, gesturing for you to come in and have a seat. “This is going to be so much fun, don’t you think? It’s always a joy to talk about my foxy. And myself, of course.”

“Scheiße, you are insufferable.”

“…I’ll ignore that, for the time being.”

1- Well, go on, introduce yourself!

“Of course, I am Doctor Edward Richtofen!”

2- So, how have you and s/i been? What have you two been up to recently?

“We’ve been doing fantastic! She’s been working quite a bit, and I have to say, I’m proud of her for powering through the harder days. Aside from her bout with sickness last month, we’ve been doing wonderfully. We’ve even gone to the movies!”

3- How did you and s/i meet anyways? What was that first encounter like?

“Well. In my attempts to find where we were supposed to be, I may have made a slight miscalculation… ending up with us being put here in your modern day instead. My allies and I found ourselves wandering a… department store?”

“I found them in a walmart and brought them home with me, is what he means to say.”

“Yes, that’s the name… and yes, that was the circumstance. She allowed us into her home after realizing we had nowhere to go, and things developed from there.”

4- So, like, how is s/i as a person?

“She is…” He thinks for a moment, searching for the right words. “Astounding, is the best way I can put it. Her kindness knows no bounds. I’m so… grateful, that she allows me to be in her life, especially in the way I am.”

5- Any upcoming plans with s/i? Like in the next coming week or even month maybe?

“Of course! This is her favorite time of year! We have plans to start decorating for Christmas as soon as we possibly can!”

24 & 25 from the Casual F/ovember ask meme for Lear if he doesn't mind :0 [@dzvagabond]

Questions 1-5 from the Casual Ask Game for Karlach if she's available :3 (@dzvagabond)

🔥 Oooh! More for me! 🔥

🔥 Answered 1 and 2 right over here! 🔥

🔥 Oh, now that's a story! This guy called‏‏‎ ‎Wyll was tasked with capturing and killing me when he thought I was your run of the mill devil, and‏‏‎ ‎Aerax and the others volunteered to help him out. Course, it turned out to be a misunderstanding, but‏‏‎ ‎Wyll's‏‏‎ ‎a sweetheart and it turned out all right in the end--but if they hadn't been willing to hear me out, who knows what would have happened. ‏‏‎🔥

🔥 Funnier than you'd expect, for one. I know better than most how first impressions can be deceiving, and admittedly they were the first‏‏‎ ‎dragonborn‏‏‎ ‎I'd met, but I guess I thought they'd be more...stoic? Growly? Not that they can't be stoic and growly, but they're surprisingly sweet. And they get so excited about weird magic stuff or old books or any of that other stuff spellcasters tend to like--hard to understand half of what they're saying when they get really into it, but it's kind of adorable. Especially when their tail wags. ‏‏‎🔥

🔥 We're mostly trying to take things as they come, so no big plans as of yet, though lots of bards and scribes have been trying to get ahold of us to hear our story told "in our own words"--with copious artistic license taken, I'm sure. It's sort of exciting, though! I'm not used to so much positive attention. I also keep saying we should get the gang back together for a big reunion feast, but it's a nightmare trying to coordinate when everyone's so busy. 🔥

🌙 Casual F/Ovember Ask Game 💫

Be honest, what was your first impression of Raines when you first met them?

🦇 "I'm never anything less than honest. Raines...the first time I met them was when they arrived in London. Walter had gone to the airport to meet them and drive them back to the estate, and I had wished to take stock of the so-called monster hunter that would be joining our missions. After the disappointment that was the Wild Geese, I was...hm. Pleasantly surprised is the best way to put it, I suppose."

"I was hiding in Walter's shadow, yet they didn't take long in noticing my presence; they simply extended their hand towards me and asked if I was 'the vamp Integra mentioned.' Impressive, I must admit, and a marked improvement to the mercenaries' sniveling. I quite looked forward to seeing the American monster hunter in action..."

I have a feeling you were the one to fall for Raines first. Were you the first one to have feelings for the other?

🦇 "A fascinating assumption to make. I'm curious just what gave you this idea--but if you truly wish to know...I'm not entirely sure which of us first developed feelings, in part because Raines is not one to openly share their emotions. As for myself? For the most part, I simply had a growing respect for them; they were a human that faced down the undead without flinching, and had dragged themselves out of hell with bloodied, broken fingers. What is there not to admire?"

"But falling for them...ah, in truth, I can't be sure. I did find myself unusually fond of them, the longer they spent in Hellsing. They even surprised me, you know? I do think they're the only human to ever seek me out for simple conversation, something I always detested...yet I didn't scare them off. Hm...perhaps I had fallen earlier than I thought."

What’s your favorite thing to do with Raines?

🦇 "Aha, now this is a question! Easy and straight to the point; I love fighting with them. I've never met another human more vicious in battle than Raines! They're an utter delight to watch~"

Who’s the heavier sleeper if either of you are?

Neither of us are heavy sleepers. It's a miracle if we manage to sleep through the night.

Does Palmer have a hard time sleeping? How do you help them out?

Like I said before, yes. There's not much I can do other than force them to come to bed. Usually the doctor takes something to sleep.

What is Palmer’s love language?

Acts of service, I believe.

4, 8, & 9 from the f/ovember questions that aren't 𝓮𝓶𝓫𝓪𝓻𝓻𝓪𝓼𝓼𝓲𝓷𝓰 for Jax please - ( @dzvagabond )

f/ovember questions that aren't embarrassing

---- 4. How are you guys in public? Is it easy to get tasks done, or do any of you tend to be scatterbrained or anxious? How do you work around those problems?

"Funny thing about being in a relationship with a literal cupcake- She's very PDA and open about being affectionate around me- much to everyone else's disgust. I LOVE it. getting things done isn't much of a problem. in fact- I find it quite useful in using her as an excuse to be EXTRA obnoxious to those around me. Whatt? Noo.. I'm just looking out for cottontail is all. no other reason~ hehe" --

8. Anything you like to watch together? What about something you like to watch but s/o HATES? & do they put aside their grievances for you? [TV centered, but video/board games & internet channels included depending on setting! go crazy]

" Oh, I love all things violence, destruction, and explosions! You'd think someone as particular as Scribs wouldn't be into that kinda stuff, but she is! She especially likes robots so we can get what we want by watching things like Gundam and Transformers. A win-win if you ask me." -- 9. Quick ― favorite & least favorite holidays? What about something you wouldn't normally celebrate that's a staple now because of your partner? Or maybe you used to recognize a holiday but no longer do?

"Being the softie that she is, Scribbles HATES Halloween. She says it's for religious reasons, but I think its because she isn't a horror fan. Though I can't say I don't mind it when she comes into my room and hides underneath the blankets looking for me to 'protect her' and junk. it's both funny and a stroke of my ego that she thinks she can trust me that much. Heh. I'd spook her a little from time to time but if she'd go as far as to cling to me for help- I might as well keep up appearances."
