BEHOLD.

I have found smth :D

I'm so sad that snakes didn't(or atleast to my knowledge didn't) get the treatment of having an epic fictional book series about them with loads of books that have a of bunch cool worldbuilding and lore and compelling characters with fandoms that make cool animated music videos on youtube about them like Warrior Cats, Guardians of Ga'hoole, Wings of Fire etc. :[[[[[[[

I'm so curious about the responses about the customer service regarding shu, I just know they would be really funny. He's a freakazoid weirdo

sure, i can copy & paste them! they're under the readmore because it's 29 responses and the post is super long

Shu responses

his demands are not on my level sir...

him or izumi. i feel like i would start crying instantly

Just remembering that one time he axed a pc, I know this isn't the same situation but it's still worrying.

He would be so rude. it was between Shu and Izumi aka the Karens of ES. Like sure wataru would pull some weird shit but that would be funny and I’d play along. Shu and Izumi would just scream at me as if it’s my fault that their favourite ice cream flavour ran out on a regular ass Thursday afternoon I’m not being paid enough to care about

i feel like it should be obvious. nightmare customer.

It. It's Shu. What else is there to elaborate, bro fought with a first year junior over bread in the cafeteria you think he's gonna cut ME some slack??

Shu was banned from using Twitter, I feel like he would be an awful Karen if he had to use customer service

he would have a really hard time speaking into the phone and following directions. i can deal with angry, miscommunication kills me

Karen energy

i feel like he would yell at me and i would cry then he would proceed to yell at me more for crying. or maybe Izumi would do that idk

I vaguely remember hearing that there was an incident where he axed (or almost axed) a computer bc of online comments or smth… so uhhhhhhhh yeah

if i mess up ONE THING he's going to start screaming at me in french

I hate the French language (I am French)

He can be really mean. And I don't speak French

i love shu but he's insufferable

itsuki shu axed his computer. itsuki shu is banned from social media. i have no doubts in my belief that he would be the WORST customer to be ever dealt with. you will hear this man be insanely specific about whatever kind of thing he's dealing with while you're stuck in your shift wanting to jump off a cliff as you speak to him. at some point in his complaints it strays away from what he actually wants from you and starts ranting about eichi and how he fucked up his life. if itsuki shu ever calls me im declining and blocking his number ASAP.

I would cry he's scary

can you fucking imagine.

I DONT WANT TO DEAL WITH HIM 😭😭😭😭 LEAVE ME ALONE (NO HATE BTW)

shu would have me killed i fear he has the strongest karen energy out of the entire enstars cast

shu seems like he would feel entitled to getting a discount because i mispronounced a french word which offended him

He’s my silly little bingus freak but god he needs to calm tf down every once and a while… he also famously had his socmed privileges taken away by single hardworking mom ibara if i remember correctly… in conclusion, i’m handing the phone to someone else bruh never meet ur idols

i can't elaborate i'm getting scared just thinking about it

Not only do rich people have no idea how to treat retail workers like human beings, but Shu has a history of lashing out, sometimes violently! Love Shu with all my heart but is so picky and sensitive and i know that I will be yelled at

The second he pulls out 'non!' im gonna throw myself into a river

He’s really fucking perfectionistic i would cry but mayoi as a close second because he would just stay silent and not say anything but also not hang up for like 3 hours, he would be breathing heavily in the phone before letting out a squeak and hanging up ountil someone convinces him to call again and it just repeats

shu would yell at me :((( and i would start crying :((((

he's just kind of unbearable (complimentary) especially as any kind of customer

Everyone else's flavour of weird I can handle but I'd hand in my resignation if I needed to deal with Shu regularly. And I live a car ride away from France—I mean it.

[gorgonstaringcontest]

Dog has been getting fussy and picky about the food I was giving her. Nothing's wrong, it's just a natural consequence of her life up until now.

The first night she was with me and for the first couple of weeks, I cooked her food myself to get her eating comfortably and up to a healthy weight. Then tried introducing actual pet foods because I was worried she wasn't getting exactly the right nutrients.

The brands swapped around because of availability and finding better options and did my best to smoothly transition between them. In the meantime, I'd give her things just for the joy of seeing her try things for the first time - chicken, roast lamb, blueberries, egg. She loved them all.

Then, she really started eating a lot. So I did what I thought was logical - bought in bulk of the food she liked. She'd tried a lot different things by this point so the newness was dying down, but about 3/4ths the way through the bulk food I bought, she just... Stopped being interested.

She went off the wet food first, and seemed to only want dry and to drink more water. Seemed fine. But then, she got sick of the dry food - only eating it begrudgingly after I'd eaten like "well, if this is all there is". So I bought different dry food, and it was okay for like a week and a bit and then, meh. Tried mixing the wet and dry together (actually mixing not just in the same bowl) and that was apparently the worst of both worlds.

So... Dog is apparently a gourmand now. She has a refined palate, and seeks new experiences.

According to advice I could find on the matter, the suggestion was to mix new things into the existing food to spice things up a bit.

I bought things to do this today, and she just... Didn't eat her lunch. Not interested, but kept doing the "feed me" things. So I decided that if it was a flavour sensation she wanted, she'd get it. And this way I could see if she didn't like any of it and could cull it from being mixed in in future.

Now we all understand dogs don't taste things the way we do, which is good, because although each individual thing is something I eat, the resulting mix was a bit more adventurous than most people would be. I made a plain rice congee, roasted off some sweet potato, pumpkin, and carrot, steamed some peas and corn, and sauteed some beef strips and - the real star of the show - liver. Topped it off with a few blueberries and some diced dried apricot as well and decided to really spoil her with a drizzle of peanut butter.

Dog was ecstatic. Ate her whole dinner. Licked the bowl clean. And then came and gave me lots of attention, very clearly pleased with the evening's offering, before going back to lick the bowl again in case a single molecule of flavour was left behind. She licked my hands, because I can only assume they smell a bit like the food from cooking it.

Every time I go NEAR the kitchen, she goes and sits by the fridge, because she saw that I cooked multiple meals worth of food and put the rest in there - the mana from heaven is trapped in the food prison, as far as she's concerned.

So I'm heading to bed now and, and she's curled up in her bed with a full tummy, which makes me glad. Aside from the extremely deadly liver-tinged dogfart that she perpetrated that is going to lead me to sleep with the windows open even though it's like 13°, I feel like I've achieved responsible dog parent status.

And for those wondering - liver is something I've eaten since I was a kid, no it's not because of rewatching Hannibal, yes I was tempted to see if dogs can have fava beans but no didn't actually check.

what’s ur fav color? mmm probably indigo!! or like a dark teal.

how long have u been on tumblr for i first joined tumblr in mid-2022 on my old account, and then i made a new one early last year. i only really started getting active around august-septemberish, disappeared for a while, and then got really active early this year. so it's been a roller coaster ig.

wheres a place u always wanted to travel to since i was really really little i've always wanted to go to scotland - i have a lot-lot of family heritage from that part of the world, and my nanna's ashes are in the river near the land my family used to own. i just think it would be a really cool place for me to go

what’s ur fav clothing brand(s) umm i love dangerfield clothes, but most of my stuff is hand-me-downs tbh, so i'm not that picky. i'll take anything if it's cute and/or masc. ACTUALLY WAIT SECOND THOUGHT not a brand but just any concert merch is something i wear a lot!!!!

So we know you love Lewie 💗💗 Any thoughts on the other islanders, the season so far, the twin twist? And what steamy fics can we expect from you 🔥🔥My request is for a threesome with Ozzy and Marshall 🥵👯‍♂️ Wait, am I Kat?! 🤣

tbf a LOT of the islanders are fire this season, so I’ll take them all! Ok, FB has turned me into thirsty Kat.

I MEANNNNNNNNNN

Honestly, thoughts are all over the place. But thank you so much for asking!!! Here they are as of today:

The Game:

The first 3 chapters - 8/10 I was going to give it a 7.5, because of the repeating dialogue and a few spelling mistakes, but so far, I think it's better written than Seasons 4 and 5- maybe on par with S3 which is a season I really enjoyed. I'm really liking how Amelia seems to be responding to how you treat her, especially if you look at the scripts. Whether or not that will affect her actions remains to be seen.

The MC - 8/10 I gotta say... she's pretty cute. It does take some fiddling to get her the way you want her, and some of her facial expressions make it look like she's had botched lip job, but overall, she's definitely prettier than S4 and S5. (Except your S5 MC ^^ wtf she's so pretty???)

The LIs - 9/10 So far, I'm really liking what I'm seeing. Yeah, some of their dialogue is the same. But I think they're different enough in personality and where it matters that it's not as noticeable as it was in say, Season 4, where James and Bruno shared a whole heap of the same dialogue, but it was clearly written with Bruno in mind, so it just seemed OOC for James. We've got a cocky dancer with a hopeless romantic streak; a golden retriever boyfriend with a soft spot for his Nan; a funny, cheeky skateboarder with a 'why-don't-you-make-me' level of flirt; and also Ryan is there. The personalities are distinct, the character designs are great, I'm really looking forward to finding out more about them

Overall design and concept- 7/10 I gotta say, I'm optimistic. It's starting out really strong for a new season. I get that it's not everyone's cup of tea, as it's a little 'gimmicky', but that's the road Fusebox are going down with the past few seasons. They're not just doing an 'open play' like S1, 2 and 3 where you come in as an OG and play all the way through. 4,5, and 6 are all 'themed', and I think having a twin in the villa is a cool concept that'll be worth exploring. It's been easy in previous seasons to just play for yourself, and say 'fuck these hoes' and just take whatever LI you want. But when it's your own sister, I think it'll make it harder to go after what you want - a moral dilemma with a family flavour. I kinda love it. Plus, if you have an identical twin that's as hot as you are, I doubt this is the first time you've had men confused about which one of you to pick💀

The Islanders:

Bella - hot. flawlessly hot. incredible rack. Her character design is absolutely gorgeous, and she is gonna be a fan favourite for sure. She just seems so fun, similar to Cora from S4, but more mature and ready for a romantic relationship. Can't wait to watch her bloom.

Grace - FB I will never forgive you for not making her a LI. I want her, those curves just *chefs kiss*. But honestly, if anyone's gonna be my bestie, I'm feeling it ith Grace. Yeah, she seems to like Ozzy, but she doesn't seem like the type to get her claws in and latch on for dear life a la Kat or Hope. Let's just hope and pray and beg that they're not making a brown girl villain again.

Ivy - I told y'all from the moment I saw her that I didn't trust this bitch. She looks too much like my cousin and my cousin is a backstabbing skank. I'm loving the concept of her though, this super type-A girl who (I almost guarantee) is either going to a) get kicked out early for being too picky, or b) have the most beautiful redemption arc where she ends up with a guy who ticks exactly zero of her boxes but she falls for him anyway. However, given Fusebox's history, I'm gonna predict she's the villain for about 2 days, then gets booted, same as Lexi from S4.

Jamal - Boys with J names 🚩... but honestly he seems nice. He's my backup LI at the moment. I'll see how things go with my #1 and might start again with Jamal instead. I think you're gonna get some wonderfully steamy scenes with this one. He's giving Bobby x Arjun, and that is something that deeply appeals to me. Cheeky, cheeky, cheeky. He's a saucy little minx and he's gonna be trouble, I just know it. Love his design, love his character so far, really happy.

Lewie - I thought he was a little baby-faced to start with, but honestly, I look at him and my brain screams husband. I'm getting Bruno x Gary x Ciaran from this one, and oh dear me, if that's not a combo that makes me swoon IDK what is. Love him so far, he's such a sweetheart but I love a footy lad.

Ozzy - I'm suspicious. I know he's already captured a few peoples' attention, but I was a little dismissive with him and he seemed a bit... red flag-y. Just a little too arrogant, you know? A little too flirtatious for someone who's very aware of how into him Grace is. I did like that he'd never had a one night stand though, although not sure how that meshes with the celebrity he apparently hooked up with in the dance studio? Because in the challenge he said he'd never dated a celebrity, but he also said he's never had a one night stand, so did he have a celebrity FWB????? The stories just aren't adding up to me. I don't trust him. Also his jaw's too sharp. And his flirty face looks like Rocco from S2. This one:

🥴

Ryan - Literally who? I keep forgetting he exists. Take your Timothee Chalamet ass away. IDK why but I'm getting Nicolas vibes from this one. 0/10 do not trust. It's something about the face.

Fics:

You want steamy fics? The @litgwritersroom asks are open, just sayinnnn

[melodic-haze]

How is the "definitely" throwing you off? Does it sound sarcastic🤔? Promise you, I say definitely irl when I'm being serious!

And you bet I'm absolutely treating you if/when I get the chance! What's your favorite food or meat? And how much spice can you handle?

I like beef, and though I've been trying to get a higher spice-tolerence, I can only handle 1-3 on a 5☆ scale

Also! Favorite flavor? I wanna know that, too!

I'm curriouuusss!

I use "definitely" to BE sarcastic so mb dawg 🫶 won't doubt the pretty hand that wants to feed me :3c

Fr though I FUCKING LOVE MEAT oh my god any meat I'll eat I think and I don't have a favourite food when all the stuff I eat is Basically my favourite bc I'm a HORRENDOUSLY picky eater. As for spice, tbf the most I can do is like a 3 (4 at a PUSH) but I don't usually touch the spice meter in general HAHAHA

As for favourite flavour idk what you mean but either anythinf salty or cookies and cream 🥰🥰🥰

[angelshizuka]

I went to a fancy restaurant (the "expect to pay a few hundred euros a person" kinda fancy) for the first time in my life.

I mean, no way in hell do I have that kind of money, but my dad invited me, my sister, his girlfriend and her son. Basically, my dad's been working at the same company for 40 years, so his boss gave him a pretty big budget to go out to eat somewhere as a treat.

We got like a ten course (or however many there were, I couldn't keep track) meal. Though, it was one of those "big plate, small portion" kinda fancy meals, you know the ones. And like, every round there'd be like 3 waiters in fancy suits standing around our table, putting down clean cutlery every time, pouring our glasses in such a fancy way and explaining what all the food was after putting it down, and things like sauce were poured on at our table. They basically did everything for you, except for the actual eating, obviously. I mean, it was cool, but as someone who's never experienced something like this before, I felt socially awkward as hell...

I can't say I liked every dish we got served, but I can acknowledge it's just because I'm a picky eater, I could still taste the quality (if that makes sense) and they tried their best to adjust dishes when needed. I've tasted so many new flavours and textures that night I've never experienced before, it was wild. But especially some of the dishes were REALLY good and it made me so sad the portion was so small. Though, so many small portions still add up and I definitely left the meal feeling full.

The restaurant was inside the biggest and fanciest hotel in the beach town I grew up in, literally on the dunes and connected straight to the beach itself. So, it was also nice being back there again for a little bit, even if most of it was seen through the window. Sometimes I really miss living so close to the beach. And I really wanted to visit my childhood ice cream shop again (can't believe it still exists), but it already closed by the time the meal was over.

Also, small side thought... I kinda technically have step-siblings now, I guess? I mean, my dad and his girlfriend are only dating, so at least not legally, but this is definitely the closest I've ever gotten to having step-family of any kind.

five drinks to get to know me:

1. water. gonna be honest most of the time i'm just drinking water and almost nothing else. i always need to have my water bottle around me and i'm also not really picky when it comes to water tbh, most water tastes fine to me

2. tallat / cortado. it has become my go-to coffee lately. i always drink coffee with breakfast and after lunch and i like that a cortado is light and doesn't feel too heavy in your stomach. i usually drink it with oat milk and no sugar

3. cappuccino. my other go-to coffee when feeling like spicing things up a bit >:) with cinnamon and no sugar

4. chai latte. one of the only teas i actually like? although it's a bit hard finding a place that offers chai latte where i live so i drink it very occasionally

5. literally any fruit juice. tbh i don't drink juice that often but i do like fruit juices and i'm not picky with flavours although orange and apple juice slap

sorry this was a bit boring i almost don't drink anything other than water or coffee 😭 . i'm not that much of a beverages kind of person if i'm honest. and i don't drink alcohol

👉👈 Another… Hunting Dog… ask… 🍲,🎤 & ❄️?~

hehe~ as you wish! I've been having fun ^~^ ~From This Ask Game~ Under cut because I'm writing an essay-

~~ Key ~~ 🍲: What do they like to eat while they’re sick? Do they like soup, or would they prefer something that isn’t “sick person food”? Do they lose their appetite when they’re sick, or are they hungrier than usual? 🎤: How does their voice change when they’re sick or allergies are bugging them? Does their voice get lower? Scratchy? Raspy? Can you hear any congestion in their voice or do they hide it well? Do they avoid speaking too much because of a sore throat and coughing, or do they try to talk through those things? ❄️: Would it be more unusual to see this character sick during the winter or during the summer? Do they typically go down during cold and flu season, or do they usually get summer colds?

Fukuchi: 🍲 Basically whatever he eats when he's not sick. Not the type to eat differently, if anything he'd just skip meals if he's not hungry, but generally unless it's bad, it's not an issue. 🎤 If he knows it's noticeable, he'll avoid talking. Generally he gets a mild congested sound that he can't quite hide, and maybe a little scratch to his voice if it's a throat related illness. ❄️ During the summer. He doesn't get sick often, so when he does, it's usually when everyone else is coming down with things all around him, which happens more often in winter.

Tetchou: 🍲 Something ridiculous, I think. Like, he has specific meals that don't make any sense, and drive people (mostly Jouno) absolutely mad. Something like boiled eggs and noodles with some spicy sauce on them both. (to clear his sinuses <3) Appetite levels don't change, just cravings/comfort foods.

🎤 His voice gets deeper and raspier, he's at risk of losing it constantly if he overuses it, mixed with definite stuffiness that's audible in his words, but also in his breathing. Despite this, he doesn't actually talk less, even when he's coughing and in pain. Just powers through, and clears his throat a lot, which only makes it worse, poor thing~

❄️ Bit of a cheaty answer, but neither would be unusual. He gets sick pretty often, so him coming to work with a mild illness is nothing new. Though, it's more common to see him deeply ill in the summer, as he gets fevers from working too hard, and the heat messes him up.

Tachihara: 🍲 Most typical comfort/illness foods, soup, rice, noodles, etc. He's not super picky, and doesn't really care about making himself comfort foods, but he does aim for more simple meals when ill.

🎤 His voice gets lower, and you will know it. He loves talking when it's deeper because he likes the way it sounds, and he's pretty good at hiding his congestion and suppressing coughs, though the wince when he speaks is hard to ignore.

❄️ More unusual to see him sick in winter. Cold and flu season does put him on edge, and he's not immune to it's grasp, but he's usually more on alert, and keeps away from people when he can. However in summer, despite knowing he always gets ill, he lets his guard down. (Plus, the heat is not good for him, especially in his fluffy coat-)

Jouno: 🍲 The type to not eat, like at all. He'll drink tea, but generally his throat hurts too much to eat a lot, and he's just honestly so overwhelmed from being sick that eating feels like a chore. People (his fellow HDs) tend to notice, and try to find soft foods that aren't too flavourful to avoid overstimulating him.

🎤 Raspy, congested, he sounds awful. Though, that won't be what tips you off that he's sick. What will tip you off is that he's completely silent. Partially because of the pain, partially because his own voice starts to overwhelm him, but mostly because he sounds awful and knows it </3

❄️ Again with a slightly cheat answer, but neither is really unusual. He doesn't have a particular season he gets sick, he doesn't actually get sick all that often. At least, not to the degree where it's severely noticeable. However he does tend to pick up illnesses from others, so cold/flu season might be a bit rougher for him.

WiJ 2023 - 17: What Inspires me to Create Whump Content?

WiJ 2023 Navigation Post

Well, I create whumpy works for one very simple reason

Myself :)

As you well know, I can get VERY picky about the whump I enjoy-- needs to have this, needs to have that, the already obscure whump type needs to have hyper-specific stupidly rare tropes in it...

And, well, at the time of creating Pete and Shifting Phases, I had just never come across anything that satisfies my thirst for whump, I barely even knew or understood that I had a taste for whump, or how I did it until I created my perfect whumpee who was by design extremely angsty, cute, and tragic.

I just knew I wanted a certain flavour of angst, and often in life, my solution to problems has been 'do it myself.' If I ever thought I could get or do the thing by any other means, I usually end up going, 'well, this sucks and is disappointing, I might as well have just done it myself, never mind, I'll forget ever asking again.'

So, when I have specific wants which no piece of media I was able to find satisfied (and I was already stupidly bad at finding media), I had this approach, a very literal, "Fine, I'll do it myself :)"

While technically, I was inspired by the likes of H2O and Aquamarine, probably also a bit of Cyber Girl and the 2010 Astro Boy movie, Vampire Knight, and maybe some other stuff I can't think of, especially anything else that had even a HINT of mer or fun non-human secret were my original inspirations, I was inspired more by the lack of what they did, where they fell short, and what they could have done with their lore.

They never put their characters (who were barely even my taste anyway ^-^') through straight up hell lmao

To summarise, what inspires me to create my whump works is the total lack of media that caters to my stupidly specific tastes, and my strong internal motivation fuelled by whumperflies to get that hyper-specific whump :) I'm addicted and obsessed, what can I say? And then ofc when I ramble on and on and on to all of you lovely people about my various ideas and plot bunnies <3 You listen to me and encourage me and I love u for it <3<3<3

I love the satisfaction and whumperflies for myself, and I love inflicting my blorbo upon anyone foolish (affectionate) enough to let me even speak to them <3 The sharing brings me joy :)

[likemesomesalads]

All impairs for a character of your choice, all pairs for Zheag :3

OH, tungl fixed itself, I can answer for you. U get In-Shu for my choice cuz I'm thinking about him :3

In-Shu:

1: On a scale of “is occasionally forced to bathe” to “Instagram model with sponsors to hoe for” how involved is your OC’s Skincare routine?

He's the scion of the water dragon so...he does be preferring to be in the water. In his human form, he does take care of his appearance as well, after Auntie Navan teaches him how... So he would end up being an "Instagram model with sponsors to hoe for" on the scale.

3: What’s something pointless/petty/unimportant that IRRATIONALLY ANNOYS THE HELL out of your OC?

Jadebots. They are everywhere and they are annoying and noisy. To be honest he can't stand the buzzing of any other jade tech either. It makes him feel like he has an annoying mosquito around his head that he just can't quite kill.

5: Does your OC get lost easily? What do they do when they do get lost?

He does on land. In the water he knows all the currents and finds everything easily...but on land? He needs help. Thus he always has a map at hand. A physical one, no jade tech required.

7: Realistically, could your OC (in their normal circumstances- i.e. at their own house/battle camp/spaceship etc.) keep a small child alive for a week if they had to?  A Dog?  A Houseplant? A rock with a  smiley face painted on?

Technically, he's stuck being a teenager for ages, so yes to all... He does not like children too much though so he wouldn't choose to take care of one unless he has no other choice. A dog or plant? Sure. He loves those.

9: What would cause your OC to choose to do something petty/pointlessly cruel?

He'd get really petty if someone were to brag that dragons aren't a big deal and are just "overgrown lizards", or the like. He wouldn't be cruel about it but boy he would creatively punish the person.

11: What song is 100% guaranteed to get your OC beyond turns and will be sung loudly and embarrassingly, either in public or the shower?

He's not familiar with any songs actually...so probably anything that has a catchy rhythm and is stuck in his head would get him to sing it. (aka. I have not thought of his music taste yet, sorry.)

13: Under what circumstances would your OC appear naked in public?

Does dragon form count as naked? Because otherwise not a chance... Unless someone maybe knocks him out and strips him... That's the only way.

15: How often does your OC “zone out” or do things on autopilot and how severe have the problems that have arisen from that be?

He's usually very concentrated on whatever he's doing. So he doesn't often zone out. If he does it's while he's sitting somewhere peaceful and gets lost in thoughts. So no troubles arise from it.

17: How does your OC sabotage themselves?

By not trusting people one bit. He doesn't know them and even if Navan and Aurene say they're chill and cool In-Shu doesn't see them as such and keeps his contact with the people at a minimum.

19: How dehydrated is your OC right now? Are they going to fix this?

He's a water dragon. He's never dehydrated. He makes sure to stay hydrated all the time.

Zheag:

2: What are your OC’s food preferences (flavours/textures/spiciness/calories/ when and how they eat) and how did they get that way?

He likes spicy food and meats. He often eats in Amnoon restaurants or at the Temple, but when on the road he just roasts himself some meat over an open fire that's good enough. he isn't a picky eater.

4: What’s your OC’s response to being asked for money by a homeless person?

He'd of course give them. He would also direct them towards his temple where they can stay for free so they don't sleep on the floor and in the cold night.

6: What would STOP your OC from Doing The Right Thing in a tense situation?

Being dead... or one of his loved ones being hurt. He'd get angry at that... He melted Drakkar's lake over Caim (@caim-the-godstomper) being shot by Bangar and he would do it again just to roast Bangar's fur off his skin... Anyway... Anger.

8: If your OC had to take the S.A.T. tomorrow with one night to prep, how would they do?  both emotionally and academically.

...I have no idea what an S.A.T. is but he'd just wing it. no prep just wing it.

10: On a scale of “Complete and Justified nervous breakdown” to “Conquer The Entire Galaxy and become an Immortal God-Emperor”, how well would your OC handle being abducted by Aliens?

I mean... He's already a god... So I guess he'd be pissed because he got a family and a whole ass religion to take care of, no time for fucking around, please kindly put him back where he belongs or you'll be burned to death, thank you.

12: What perfectly-normal-to-them-thing does your OC do that confuses/pisses off/terrifies their neighbours?

Uses only their hand to heat up the metals he forges... not many can do that right?

14: What thing did your OC’s parents do that your OC wishes they had a better explanation for?

I mean he's originally a sylvari so his only parent is the Pale Tree...But perhaps explain why he was the only one with no fucking goal in his life. he felt so left out.

16: How strong or weak is your OC’s Impulse control? What’s the worst thing that happened because of their Impulsivity or inability to be so?

He's pretty impulsive. He left Trahearne after an argument and never went back to check on him because he fell into the magic toilet and ended up so far away. He regrets that a lot. He went to Bjora with Ulfric, his then-partner, to help Caim in the north with Bangar on a whim and had to kill Ul because he got corrupted by Jormag. He melted Drakkar's lake because he got so angry his god powers got out of control... Yeah, impulsive guy.

18: What’s the trashiest item in your OC’s wardrobe, when was the last time they wore it and why do they still have it?

He has a bellydancer outfit... He only wears it for his partners though.

20: What’s your OC smell like?  no, not that “Vanilla and Anxiety” evocative stuff, realistically.  Body odour? what have they been touching all day? When was their last shower? Did they put on any kind of artificial scent?

He smells like charcoal and cherry blossoms. Which is a weird combination but that's what you get if you put fire god magic into a plant man. On busy days he also smells a bit like a dog because of his not-jackal jackal buddy, Cliff, who he uses to move around the desert. He does take baths daily if they can but aside from some soap doesn't use anything scented.

Do you know anybody who is ambidextrous? I might, but I'm not able to remember anyone specific right now.

Have you ever been 4-wheeling? We did it once when we were in Ilocos, yes.

What’s the weather been like today? The crazy April-May heat has subsided a little bit, but we're left with humidity which is just as nasty so I'm still a complainer lol.

What was the last exam you sat for? Not an academic exam or anything like that, but I had my medical exam earlier this year.

Will you be attending any weddings in the near future? Angela and Hans', but that won't be til late next year.

Do you currently have any unread text messages, and who from? I'm sure I do. I wanna say half of it is from scammers, the other half is work-related that I haven't been assed to check.

Speaking of text messages, what colour is your cell phone? It's blue. Not my first color of choice because I never really wanted a colored phone, but at the time I needed a new phone (my old one had entirely died on me and being picky about color wasn't an option) and the best shop I could find only had the iPhone 13 in blue lol.

Do you live anywhere near the woods? Nah.

Would you ever consider a career in the tourism industry? I've fantasized about what it'd be like to be an airline stewardess because I really find their day-to-day super interesting, but I don't know if I can shift my career towards it. I'm too focused on where I am to consider it at all.

Do you have any important anniversaries you celebrate? Trigger warning: Suicide. There's my birthday, there's June 13 for BTS, there's April 7 which I simply refer to as my Life Anniversary since that's when I decided I'd be a fan of the boys and subsequently be saved from the s* I was planning later that month.

When was the last time you used q-tips? Around 3 nights ago.

How does your hair react to humid weather or rain? It's super frizzy, so I always have to tie it back when it gets humid.

What’s your favourite flavour of iced tea? Lemon.

Do you understand music theory? I don't know the first thing about it.

How many hours of sleep did you get last night? I slept early because the day before was SHIT and I just wanted to disappear. That said, I want to say I slept for 11 hours.

Are you expected to act professionally at your job? Aren't we...all? It's a job.

Infomercials: entertaining or stupid? Entertaining precisely because it can get so stupid.

What’s your favourite brand of energy drink? I don't drink those.

Do you have (or have you ever had) acne? I've had them.

When was the last time you got pins-and-needles? I usually get them when waking up :/ I don't move a lot when I sleep, so when I do get in a certain position in-sleep I could be stuck in it for hours. That said it's usually either one of my arms that gets the pins and needles, and when I wake up there's like one full minute where I don't feel my arm at all and any attempt to move it I only get a jelly response from that arm haha.

Why did you click to take this survey? I didn't click it, it's just archived in my Likes and this was the next one on my list.

If you have glasses, have you ever smashed them? Accidentally, yes.

How do you get new music? Buy or download or what? I've used Spotify since like 2014.

Do you require a lot of time to do things or are you quick? It depends on what needs to be done. At work I've been told I'm quick on my feet and get things done in a snap...I know I'm not the same in every situation, though.

What will be the next concert you attend? Nothing lined up anytime soon. I really want it to be BTS though? I hope my friends and I can snag those damn tickets because it will be a stupid bloodbath for sure.

Turn the nearest television on, what’s on? It's currently on; I have a replay of BTS on You Quiz on the Block. Terrific series of interviews that I never get tired of going back to.

How often do you “wake up on the wrong side of the bed”? Tbh never. I make it a point not to. I absolutely dread the idea of starting work already in a sour mood.

Can you rap? I memorize several rap verses/songs but that doesn't mean I can rap, so no.

What do you usually order when you’re at McDonald’s? Plain double cheeseburger (meaning no pickles, no onions, no ketchup, no mustard), large fries, and coffee.

Are there any textbooks near where you are right now? Nah.

What’s the time? 9:52 PM.

Do you know how to use a DSLR camera? Only when it's set to automatic which barely counts, lol. I don't know how to take good photos if I otherwise need to set it manually.

How’s your body temperature right now? No idea and I have no thermometer nearby, but I'm assuming it's well below 37.5C since I don't have a fever.

Do you use Celsius or Fahrenheit? Celsius.

What was the last thing you got a really good deal on? I mean I got a discount from the vet earlier hahah so that's always great.

Have you ever studied any ancient societies? Sure. Nothing in-depth, but I like to read about history from time to time on my own.

Do you like to wear long, dangling earrings? I would enjoy that, but I can't do it. I tore my piercing years ago and I haven't been able to wear earrings since haha.

What was the last reason you took medicine? Horrible horrible horrible headache.

Do you exercise regularly? No.

What is your coffee of choice? (flat white, cappuccino, etc.) Caramel macchiato for the most part, but Starbucks has this mouthful of a drink that's been my usual – the order is literally called brown sugar soy milk iced shake espresso. I hate the name, but it gets the job done for me hahah.

Do you pay any attention to your country’s politics? Yeah very much so. We're not exactly in the best situation politically, so I'm always following the news.

Are you feeling worried about anything right now? A little, but I'm mostly annoyed and a bit angry at it now.

Are you a gossipy type of person? Just with Angela, but it's not even mean-spirited at this point lol. If we catch something on our news feed, we talk about it in a very "wow we're all getting older" "She really deserves this" "Her baby is so cute" way haha.

When will your next meal be, and do you know what it will consist of? I ate so much over lunch that I'm still full now at 10:04 PM. That said, I did get a couple of doughnuts at the mall earlier and I'll probably just have those as a midnight snack.

Tell me about the sickest you’ve ever felt. Either the time I got hospitalized in 2011 over a low platelet count; my UTI in 2020 where I had a 40C fever; or Covid last year when I got every goddamn symptom possible and felt like a corpse.

What’s your opinion on your in-laws, if you have any? I don't have any ~direct in-laws, but my cousin's fiance can't be more fantastic. She's so kind, easy to talk to, and is very affectionate. Super sweet girl and every conversation we've had is a great memory.

Do you make excuses often, or do you just get things done? I complain to hell and back first, then I do the thing because it'll never do itself anyway lol.

Have you seen your best friend today? Nah. I did see her Monday, though.

What can you smell right now? Room smells like nothing to me at this point, but I know that's because I've been here for hours and have just grown accustomed to whatever smell it has.

Any important birthdays coming up? It's my paternal grandma's birthday today! After her, it'll be my mom's and sister's in September. Their birthdays are a week apart.

Fireworks: yay or nay? Yay, tbh.

Do you have any plans for the rest of the day? I haven't taken these in weeks so I might take one or two more.

How about tomorrow? Any plans? I have a bit of work that I need to squeeze in, but it's okay because it's the part of work that I enjoy doing. We might also take a trip down south to visit my dad's family to celebrate my grandma's birthday, and also because it's my dad's last weekend before he needs to leave for work again.

If you could eat or drink anything right now, what would it be? I have Biscoff doughnuts waiting to be eaten.

What colour are your headphones? I have Airpods; they're white.

Think of the last long car trip you had, where did you go? Tagaytay was the most recent long one...tbh we don't do long rides anymore haha. We used to be able to reach places like Ilocos and Bicol, but that was also when my dad was a decade younger. He likes to take it easy now – super understandable – so when we travel, it's either by car to somewhere more reasonable (Bulacan, Tanay, Tagaytay, Subic) or by plane to a different country altogether.

Do you have a Twitter account that you use regularly? I have an account but I don't use it nearly as much as I used to. It's a gross place to be in now...people are always fighting, throwing slurs, canceling one another, and watching fanwars just genuinely bums me the fuck out.

Have you ever seen a horseshoe crab? They’re scary, right?! I don't think I have.

What was the last movie you saw at the theatres? I haven't been to the cinema since they screened BTS in Busan early last year, lol. But I did watch The Menu at home with my dad and sister just the other night.

Are there any new movies that you’d really like to see? Moana 2 :)

If you could play one instrument flawlessly, what would it be? The piano.

Do you overthink a lot of things? Yes "Overthinker" is my middle name.

Is there anybody you miss but can’t see again? Yes. I wish my grandfather didn't pass so early.

When was the last time you had a hangover? Last weekend.

Do you remember much from high school? Bits and pieces. I remember the good parts of it more than the mundane and outright bad, that's the most I can say.

Where would you go for the ultimate honeymoon? I'd love to visit either India or Turkey. Or Morocco.

Can you access the roof of the building you live in? Yeah, well it's our home, so.

Do you know anyone who has a strong accent that is hard to understand? Sure. I'll work with foreign clients from time to time. By far, the Singaporean English accent is what's made me lean into my speakers the most frequently, like to make sure I understand clearly.

If you had to get a tattoo tomorrow, what would you get? Kimi's pawprints.

What was the last podcast you listened to? Do you listen to it regularly? I don't listen to podcasts much. I'm a visual consumer, and I like to be able to see things as I listen to them, so with podcasts I usually zone out pretty quickly.

Are you more of an optimist or a pessimist, and why do you think this is? It's such a copout answer but I'm honestly a realist more than anything. With optimism I don't want to fall into the trap of overpromising things for myself, or setting up grand expectations only to be disappointed...but I also don't want to be pessimistic and like, jinx the ugly stuff to actually happen. For the most part, for me, it's a mix of being realistic and having the "whatever happens happens so just deal with it" mindset.

When was the last time you moved houses? 2008.

Have you ever held a gun? Did you fire it? I haven't. My family actually went to a shooting range for the first time this morning and fired guns for an hour straight, so this question is amusingly timely. But as for me, I was in a terrible mood this morning coming from yesterday's shitty work day, so I sat it out. I also didn't want to be near guns while feeling super vulnerable.

Do you like simple questions or deep questions that make you think? Like on surveys? Just simple ones would do.

How long have you been using Bzoink? I had been going on it regularly from 2009 to earlier this year when it shut down for good. I'm pretty sure there's like a fanmade version of it that's since come out though – I just can't remember the link rn lol.

When was the last time you threw up? Why were you sick? Early May. Food poisoning.

Are you on a first-name basis with your boss? (or last boss if unemployed) Yes.

What brand is your laptop or computer? Apple.

Would you ever wear a bright orange shirt? I have one but I only wear it occasionally as orange isn't really my color.

What was the last thing you wrote in a word document? Just some document I needed to accomplish for work.

Who do you miss and what do you miss about them? Kimi. I miss how clingy he was, how quietly sweet, and how I was his person from the very start to the very end. He really was and is my soulmate in so many ways.

What were the best and worst costumes you’ve ever worn? Best was going as Sofie from Halloween 2014 (or 2015?). Worst was a store-bought pirate outfit.

Do you know anybody who is gay and married? In Catholic Philippines? Hahaha.

What did you last take painkillers for? Headache.

Are there any hobbies you want to get back into? I wish I had the patience for coloring and painting-by-number.

Would you ever consider a career in the tourism industry? It wouldn't be at the top of my list but a job is a job. Not everyone can afford to be picky about what they do.

Do you have any important anniversaries you celebrate? Not really. Mike and I don't really bother with our anniversary.

When was the last time you used q-tips? 3-4 days ago.

How does your hair react to humid weather or rain? It goes frizzy and horrible.

Do you have (or have you ever had) acne? Yeah, I've had it since I was about 12.

Turn the nearest television on, what’s on? I'm watching The Big Bang Theory.

How often do you “wake up on the wrong side of the bed”? Maybe once or twice a week, but normally I get over it pretty quickly.

[ace-the-fox]

I came with questions for the oc ask game :3

Question 7, 9 & 11 for the dear ladies Haruka, Momo and Misao hehe

Ooh, okie dokie!!

7) 💟 - ...I feel like this one is obvious. But, other than kitties, I feel like she'd also be a butterfly kinda gal. She just gives me those vibes. She thinks they're pretty <3

✴️ - Again, other than the obvious choice of cats, I feel like she'd really like monkeys. A few years after part 4, when the Internet starts to make the rounds, half of her liked YouTube videos are either cat or monkey memes. She just thinks they're so cute and silly.

🔲 - Bugs. She loves bugs. She collects them and keeps them in jars. If she likes you she'll show them to you :)

9) 💟 - Funnily enough, she loves strawberry milk but only strawberry milk. Any other milk, flavoured or vegan or otherwise, she will not have. She is a somewhat picky eater and has a pretty long list of foods she will not poke at with a ten foot pole, but it was a lot worse when she was littler. Kira was at his wits end trying to find new things she'd eat...

✴️ - She really likes fruit. She puts together a mean fruit salad in the summer. She's the opposite of picky, honestly, and will put almost anything edible in her mouth. Only thing, though, is that she has a very, very low spice tolerance. One time her mom put the faintest hint of chilli powder in dinner and girlie almost died 💀

🔲 - She doesn't really have much like or dislike for food, to be honest. Mainly because food isn't really a specialty for her. Her dinners mostly consist of the same rota of frozen foods, she's had the same packed lunch for years, etc. She does like sweet things when she can get her hands on them (usually by some shoplifting but shhhhh)

11) 💟 - *sighs* Bestie, it's just the autism. /hj. But also the social awkwardness (though I'm not just as bad) and the artistic-ness and the nail-biting... there's actually a few things, huh. I feel like we'd get along fine, but it would be kinda awkward at first lol.

✴️ - I'd say we have similar personalities, but not much else. I think we'd also get along well, but that's also just because Momo is almost impossible not to get along with. She's too sweet not to love <3

🔲 - Well, I should HOPE I don't have much in common with her. And I should also hope that she wouldn't take much notice of me, as she does with most people. After all, if Haruka is anything to be made an example out of, if Misao likes you you're in trouble...

[fall-shorter]

I am on a OC infodump roll, so let's go!

All my boys have their own places to go and relax too!

Sziliana is disturbingly extroverted, so when she needs to relax she usually goes to her favourite night club called El Dorado. If it's too early she would probably go somewhere to work out.

Scisor is the type to just go for a walk. He doesn't have any set places, he just likes to get lost, either on foot, or by a car.

Ivo has a place, there is this slightly damaged bridge that he likes to sit on and stare in the water, drinking booze and listening to the most edgy metal you can imagine. Sometimes Szili likes to hang out with him, if he doesn't mind being alone.

Yajone is always slightly uncomfortable, but I guess his favourite spot would be his workshop (so his home essentially). Whenever he is stressed he just goes back to working because that puts him at ease.

Marcel just sits at home, that's his favourite place to be. He lives alone in a small, cosy apartment, so it's an easy choice for him. Sometimes he will sit at the window, since he has a pretty nice view and just watch the cityscape with a nice cup of green tea or smth.\

2. Of course I've done it! I would say all my characters have a few traits of mine or even they are used to show traits I wish I had. Biggest examples would be how confident Sziliana is, or how chill Scisor is. Sometimes I use my characters to vent out my own problems, for example Yajone's autism, or how cynic and Marcel is (here tho I'm not sure whether I like it or not hah).

3. FOOD! They all have fav food, cause ofc! (actually not all of them are food, but weh)

Scisor loves canned sodas and strawberry flavoured stuff. Real strawberries themselves are cool, but he loves the shitty artificial taste of strawberries more, there is jst something special about it. His absolute fav is... well, strawberry flavoured soda he buys pretty often.

Ivo likes two things. Coffee and whiskey. Okay three - he also likes spicy food, it doesn't budge him one bit, no matter how spicy. With coffee he likes it in every form.

Marcel, first and foremost likes his food nicely presented. It has to look nice and only then he will eat it. He really likes sea food and japanese cuisine in general.

Yajone, if he doesn't forget to eat, he will eat pretty much anything as long as the texture is right. He won't eat anything slimey or jiggly. His comfort food is usually rabit's blood (vampires, am I right) Sziliana eats a lot, and is defineteley not a picky eater, will eat anything that will fit into her mouth. Particularly likes meat eggs and cheese, especially when combined. Also drinks lots of protein shakes. Let's say she is always bulking.

//Aaand that's that!

Wednesday Asks

Hello everyone! So sorry for the delay in sending out today's questions! Without further ado, here they are:

Where do your characters go when they want to escape/get away for a while to relax? Why do they go to this place specifically?

It's relatively common for writers to give aspects of themself to their characters or story. Have you done this? If not, why haven't you / what have you done to prevent this, if anything? If so, give an example (if you want to!)

What is your OC's favorite food? Why is this food their favorite? Do they eat it often or mostly as a treat?"
