#not enough Marth merch though…

My haul from FanimeCon 2023! My friend left me unsupervised in the artist alley on multiple occasions and that was a mistake.

Mun VS Muse — send a symbol!

👻 = What is the scariest thing to ever happen to the mun and muse?

I don’t think anything will ever scare me as badly as oral presentations at school or job interviews, although going to new places and doing new things on my own is generally very scary in its own right as well.

As for Marth, I have this very intricate headcanon that I know I’ve mentioned before regarding his fight(s) with Medeus and I’m afraid now’s not the right time or place to go into detail with that, but let’s just say there was this split second in his first one where he was just completely overcome with this feeling of ‘I can’t do this’ for what was probably the first time in his journey because he was very reckless and impulsive until then - and yeah just, that short moment of sheer panic and dread and powerlessness was likely the scariest thing he’s experienced up until now.

🎈 = How do the mun and muse react to surprises? When is the last time either was surprised and what surprised them?

It.. really depends what the surprise is as far as I’m concerned. If it’s like a friend showing up at work to say hi or a random present someone brings to an already planned meetup it’s always appreciated. But if it’s like, a surprise party or outing, depending on what it is, I’m less likely to appreciate. I’m an introvert so just about any social of activity requires some kind of psyching myself up for it if I’m gonna enjoy it, unless it’s like… one person I have to be with and said person is one of the few I don’t get drained just being around. The last time I got surprised was when my dad offered to buy me my favorite meal at my favorite restaurant as takeout even though he’d made it clear he was against the idea the day before.

I think the same can be said for Marth, he likes getting to mentally prepare for any social encounter, even if it’s just a minute or two ahead of time, so he wouldn’t enjoy being taken out of his comfort zone without the slightest warning, unless it only involved one or two people he’s especially comfortable with and an activity that also doesn’t put him on edge too much. The last time he was surprised was probably when he forgot to dinner because he was being too productive and Ike randomly showed up with a bunch of snacks and set them up to eat on the bed.

🎁 = What sorts of gifts do the mun and muse like? What were the last gifts they gave and received?

I feel very awkward receiving gifts to be perfectly honest, like, I enjoy and appreciate them but I never feel like I can say thank you enough. If there’s anything I appreciate more than the rest though, it’d probably be like, personal stuff ? I’m not sure how to describe it but like, things that show that the person knows me and knows what I like, like fan merch or stuff they made themselves or just… really anything that’s like, something I wanted but never asked for and/or didn’t even know I wanted. The last gift I got was a bunch of chocolates from Kris and the Zootopia DVD that he gave me when I visited. The last gift I gave was also a bunch of chocolates that I gave him when I visited (unless you count the three boxes of Hot Tamales I bought for him when we went to the grocery store, then that would be it).

Marth’s not one for gifts either, he much prefers giving over receiving. On any gift-exchange occasion, he’d rather just spend some good time with the people involved (assuming he cares  about them) than receiving material presents. It’s no secret he grew up as a rich kid and he still is, so to speak, so anything that can be bought has kind of lost any sort of meaning to him. 

🍳 = What are the mun’s and muse’s favorite foods?

answered here !

🎮 = What genre of video games do the mun and muse like best? What are their favorite systems and video games?

I don’t actually like/know that many games ? There’s really only the Legend of Zelda and Fire Emblem and Smash series that I like very consistently, otherwise I like a couple of Mario games and a couple of Sonic games and like, some more unique titles like Xenoblade Chronicles and Kid Icarus Uprising but I don’t think I’m that big of a gamer all things considered. My favorite system will always be the Nintendo Gamecube but I have high hopes for the Switch. 

As for Marth well obviously he doesn’t do video games unless we’re talking modern verse, in which case he would probably mostly like strategy and puzzle games, while still being fairly open-minded to action/adventure/rpg in general.
