If you haven’t been asked already, can I request 4, 5 & 21 for Kikuno and Mitsuru?

character ask game

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?

ill actually answer this first one with both of them in mind because due to kikuno's character hinging kind of inseparably on mitsuru they have to be a package deal. anyway. you cant tell me they wouldnt work ridiculously well as a weapon/meister duo in soul eater

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

for kikuno: skips merrily into my playlist again and comes back out with overdone by ludo in my hands :]

for mitsuru: i of course now forever have rules by the hoosiers ingrained in me as a mitsuru classic since i did an animatic of it for her last year

21. If you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for this character? What's something you don't like?

for kikuno: her specific brand of teasing/banter is too fun for me and i have had to literally cut entire conversations down by A Lot just because they get away from me when im spinning her dialogue...lol. as for dislike, its not so much that i dont like exploring it but due to having so little to work with in canon i am constantly having to extrapolate things to be able to treat her as a functioning character beyond her servitude to mitsuru (and later others in arena) and it can be a bit difficult because i am always wondering how much of my thoughts are reasonable --;;

for mitsuru: forever obsessed with navigating her constant struggle with her family's guilty that she carries on her shoulders!! i like that it is something that she can't shake, not even due to outside forces so much as her own perception of it. as for dislikes i often struggle to portray the ways in which she is sheltered, even if they are a fun aspect to explore of her.
