[sobredunia]

can you tell me about Noah again bro, I forgor her lore, but i remember her, i just wanna know about all of your oc's i will be honest about that

Okay I'm legit surprised and confused you know who noah is bc i don't think i've ever mentioned her ever

oh wait i just remembered the zombie au i told u abt. nvm lol

This is the only rendered drawing I have of her in digital. I made it 2 years ago. god damn

lore under the cut

okay so noah has the cringiest orphan backstory. you know that thing that went on in japan a few years back where women who didn't want children put them in coin lockers? yeah

her last name is Shellby because Coin Locker Baby -> CLB -> Shellby

at first she was at an orphanage and got kinda bullied but then one time she got a pink eye and made it so her hair covered it and this one other girl kinda digged the look at became her friend, and she kept the emo bangs for years after that. she also died her hair purple to look cool

(creator's note this is bc originally her design was much different and i made it when i was fucking around with a character creator. but then evolution happened and her design changed drastically but i still wanted to be somewhat close to my roots so her younger self design has that)

The girl she befriended was friends with the rebel gang at the orphanage and one time they convinced her to do arson and she burn an entire building down. so she got sent to one of those jails for kids. idk the name

there she met a kid who wasn't from that jail but he liked climbing trees so she saw him often enough through the concrete walls, and she fell in love and they begun to date!

Then, that kid actually pushed her to start bettering herself and try to get out of jail with good conduct to live the rest of her life free from crime. or at least arson. slowly the kid showed up less and less until one day he wasn't there anymore, but oh well

she's still in kid's jail but they were working on this program to make kids in kid jail with good attitude go to schools early so their studies wouldn't get damaged much and they could be reintegrated to society better. noah was one of those people. they did have to send her to a class two years younger than her bc she dumb as bricks lmao. and also she hadn't been to proper school in ages so yeah

and in that class she made friends!! :D

HI I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS 🙋

1. What would Monty's reaction be to Stink? Y'know, once the big guy is fixed and not acting like a sewer rat. Will he help take care of him?

2. Are we going to get a oneshot of Morgan and Monty interacting in any way? Maybe Morgan seeing Monty be slowly repaired with every visit and even helping when they can, or after he's fixed and they go home together where they talk things out and have a heart-to-heart conversation? I like to imagine ""The Big Talk"" happens on the way back home in Morgan's dinked up truck after a few minutes or even hours of painfully awkward silence and a bit of strained small talk, but seeing Monty's reaction to Morgan's home and us even getting to know what it looks like would be nice, too! I think seeing the home or living evironment of a character helps me understand them better, plus it's just interesting.

3. A bit of a continuation of my previous question- what does Monty think about Y/ngineer not being his soulmate? Will he ever find out what Morgan did to Y/ngineer? If so, how will he react to it? I can't remember if he even knows they're soulmates with Sun/Moon/Eclipse, so how will he feel if he saw them being affectionate, whether he knows or not? Is he over Y/ngineer and ready to move on with Morgan? On the other hand, what does Morgan think of Monty being their soulmate, Monty in general, and about having an animatronic for a soulmate? I can't remember if this was ever discussed, I apologize if so.

4. Will we get an update on how both Roxy and Chica are doing on the farm that's set a couple of months or so in the future, after everyone is repaired and the dust has settled? Will we get a little fluffy look into their daily life, relationship and how they both react to farm work? Or rather some hurt/comfort when the sky is depressingly dark, the house is dead quiet and the memories and phantom pains won't stop? I miss my girls. 😢

5. Could you share some thoughts you have for a potential oneshot with Cassie and Roxy? Maybe a bit of hurt/comfort with Cassie visiting and comforting Roxy after, y'know, everything, or seeing her when she'll all fixed up? Will Cassie get to meet Chica? (I'm assuming Cassie has a mother that's still around so would that make Chica her 3rd mother? 🤔)

6. How is Maddie? I think we had brief mentions of her near the end but I hope she's doing well and spending enough time with her dads! Juggling repairing 5 animatronics, taking care of a baby, and planning for the future must be overwhelming for Matt, even with Y/ngineer, Eclipse and his parents there to help him. :( Will we see Y/ngineer or/and Eclipse play with little Maddie? That would be so so cute! I suspect the boys didn't see a lot of infants in the daycare. 🥺 Speaking of... how did Maddie react to the long trip to Twin Falls? She's is an angel but I assume she didn't take the move too well.

SORRY FOR ALL THE QUESTIONS YOU DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER ANY OF THEM IF YOU DON'T WANT TO OR IF YOU'VE ALREADY ANSWERED THEM BEFORE. Love you (platonically) have a good day okaybye. 🙇

AAH I LOVE ANSWERING QUESTIONS TY THIS IS LIKE A PRESENT TO ME!!!!

I honestly think he'd be scared of him at first. like not over the top screeching but he'd refuse to hold him, and he'd freeze when hes put on him. eventually hed have a begrudging respect for stink bc stink likes to bite

Oooh that really puts me in the mood to write about them! Maybe Ill do a oneshot tonight for morgan & monty :)

He isnt stoked about the fact that they arent soulmates, he was starting to feel pretty sure that they were. but he isnt distraught over it - its more of a workplace crush than a real true "i need you" crush. He'd be pissed that morgan did what they did to them, but at the same time, hes done some pretty bad shit to people he cares about too - its another thing they can relate about. he sees morgan trying to be a better person and respects that. If monty were a human man he would 100% be morgan's type down to a t. however, they arent the monster fucker robot lover the y/ngineer is, so it takes more time for them to get used to the idea of a giant crocodile machine being their soulmate. it gets easier they longer theyre together, and the more they get to know each other!

I might write a oneshot for it possibly, along with cassie coming for a visit!! :) it'd be touched upon in the sequel if I ever write it!

tbh I have less ideas for these guys than I do other characters (mostly bc roxy is a mother NO DRAMA and no drama means less story hddsf) but I could see myself writing a oneshot where cassie comes and sleeps over with her dad's permission!

Maddie is doing wonderfully! She's a little angel and her grandparents are watching her while Matt and the gang make the move to the new home! Matt will drive back and pick her up once theyre settled in, so it isnt too much for her. Once shes there and all settled in, Eclipse ends up watching her most of the time while matt and y/ngineer run the shop. After someone sees him doing so well with their kids at the playground while babysitting maddie, they ask him if he runs a daycare, and he decides that YES, he does! Which is how Clear Skies Daycare starts! :)

whats ghostwire tokyo about?? I googled it and the pics look really cool (also saw a dog)

oh good, i get to explain this to you [unskippable cutscene]

ok i do have to preface this by saying. the game itself is not the best. the story is mediocre, the combat is mediocre, but the visuals are stunning and it really shines with spotlighting japanese culture and myth! the place it really got me is with the main characters, but that’s another paragraph.

without giving too many spoilers, it follows a college student named Akito who nearly dies in a car crash. being near-death allows a nearby spirit looking for a home to possess him, except being possessed lets him heal (?? i guess?? again, not the best plot) and suddenly they’re hanging out in the same body. the spirit is actually a 40ish paranormal detective named KK who’s trying to stop the main villain, Hannya, from stealing the spirits of everyone in Shibuya, Japan and using them to open (??) a gate to the underworld. again, plot is not their strongest suit.

i think the game’s strongest points are twofold: in the side quests that develop the lore of the game, and the characterization of the two main characters, which is the part i’m going insane about. (they share a body. they spend the whole time bickering). you can also pet the dogs/cats!!!

i’m currently writing a fic for Akito and KK which is making me crazy. i’m 8.6k in and i’m hoping to get it out soon?? ish??

YOUR WRITING>>>>>

I don't know how you came up with Naga Scaramouche but I've been brain rotting for days now 😩

Do you have any ideas how'd he'd react if someone goes out of their way to look for reader after they disappeared?

Especially if they mightve been a love interest at some point or the person clearly has feelings for them 👀

(referring to this)

A friend of mine actually came up with the idea for naga scara!! Together, we fleshed out the plot. It wasn't originally a fic, though, it was just a rp that got me brainrotting afterwards. I couldn't stop thinking about the whole concept until I finished writing Hidden in the Sands. The fic literally wouldn't leave me alone unless I was working on it LMAO

I'm going to take this as an excuse to talk a bit about the behind the scenes here (you have NO idea how much I've wanted to infodump about this fic)–originally, the reader was actually my friend's interpretation of Lumine and Sanad was originally my Alhaitham. I also played the part of Kuni himself. It was a bit awkward, actually, because Alhaitham and Kuni had to talk to each other a little bit and it felt like I was talking to myself.

I've changed the personalities of the reader and Sanad greatly, as you might have already guessed, since Sanad behaves nothing like Alhaitham; Sanad's more like one of those "prime examples" that Alhaitham talks about when he says, "Book learning alone is not enough to cultivate intelligence." Sanad is, intentionally, a very flawed but still reasonably likeable character. I want to talk about him too. Oh boy, looking back on this I sure did talk a lot about an OC I don't think anyone genuinely cares about.

I wanted to make him come off as normal, like an actual human person. He really is just a regular dude, he's just been kinda brainwashed by the Akademiya, as shown by the lines, "The Akademiya has declared them to be just baseless nonsense, so of course I don't think they actually exist." and "Desert dwellers tend to be... fearless." He's absorbed many commonly held beliefs (and biases) in the Akademiya, a textbook example of someone who's been taught what to think rather than how to think. I wanted him to be realistic. However, he's still funny, charming, and overall good-willed, even if he's spineless and very easily led.

I've greatly changed the fic from the original rp, and only the base premise (yandere!naga!scara and the whole "commissioned to find the culprit for some strange murders in the Hadramaveth") remains the same. It went through several versions at first. In fact, before I came up with Sanad, I was going to have Cyno replace Alhaitham! But ultimately, I realized Cyno was actually competent and I might have had to write a proper fight scene, which I did not want to do. You can still see a remnant of the first draft I chose to leave in (from when Cyno was the disposable companion) in the bad joke Sanad tells at the beginning of the story.

Using Sanad also had other benefits that I feel helped pull the fic together!! His cowardly nature gave reader a chance to endear themselves to Kunikuzushi, for refusing to abandon Sanad even after he (frankly, understandably) ran away. Even this early on, I had decided that whatever backstory naga Kuni might have had, it absolutely had to revolve around betrayal since canon Kuni's backstory is so deeply tied to it.

It's a really minor pet peeve of mine, and it doesn't bother me too much, but I usually don't really like it when the yandere starts to fixate on the object of their obsession for no reason than, like, "love at first sight" or "they simply caught my eye for some vague reason I cannot put into words." It's not bad, per se, and it's not even a solid rule of mine! I can think of several fics I love that don't give a solid reason, though the characters in those have such a dynamic that you still understand why one became so interested in the other to begin with... (I'm making this more complicated than it is, I think, but I'm beginning to think it's just I just don't care for it when the MC has the depth of a piece of paper.) Anyway, I'm getting derailed again, but I chose to give Kuni a reason to empathize with the reader in the form of Sanad and his "betrayal" because of this preference of mine.

However, and I think I've touched on this a bit in a previous post, this wasn't the only reason Kuni decided to spare them. In fact, even after he decided to leave you for last, he still thought he was going to come back to kill you. What really interested him was your insistence on saving Sanad even after what Kuni perceived as a betrayal. Why would you try to help someone who didn't even make an attempt to help you? It doesn't make sense. You're too soft, it's endearing.

Whether or not Sanad's actions are justified is debatable, though I personally understand them. He's never fought in his whole life. If you, the experienced monster-fighting adventurer couldn't do it, how could he? He doesn't even have a sword. It's certainly cowardly and rude to say the least, but given the circumstances, I think it's the choice most people would make in that situation. Of course, it's absolutely something Kunikuzushi could have (and did) twist into something completely different. I think I made it pretty obvious, but contrary to what Kuni said, Sanad had no such malicious thoughts when he left you there. Kuni is extremely jaded; his perception of the world has been mostly shaped by the betrayals he's experienced, and he's no different in this AU. As I said before, Sanad's not a terrible person, just terribly average. If he had survived, he absolutely would have had survivors' guilt.

Anyway!!! I'm not sorry about the infodump, thank you for giving me the slightest reason to tell you all about it. Here's what you actually asked for.

Kuni views most people as inconsequential, little more than helpless ants. He doesn't care about them in the slightest. If anything, they irritate him. So when someone shows up–an old friend, a crush, anyone–his first thought is to get rid of them if they venture too far in, and especially if they see him. Even if he doesn't know that they know you. If he lets them go, more will come. If he finds out they're looking for you, specifically... well, it doesn't really change his plans. He's going to kill them no matter what.

It does motivate him though, to be a bit crueler, to make it last a bit longer. What they are to you doesn't change the outcome, but it might sour his mood a bit more if they were anything more than friends or family. It's not likely that he'll leave them be long enough to find this out, though. Logically speaking, they're probably not going to tell a monster like him all about the friend/family/crush they're looking for in this desert, especially not when he's clearly unfriendly.

It's not totally impossible, though. This hypothetical person would have heard all about the strange attacks (as mentioned in the fic), so seeing a large half-snake person could make them realize that Kuni was most likely the cause for your disappearance (even though they'd assume it was murder and not kidnapping). Even so, I doubt they'd have a little chat over tea about who all Kuni has murdered recently.

Anyway, I digress. Assuming he figures it out somehow, whether or not he tells you about them depends on his mood and your behavior. Unfortunately for you, dealing with people irritates him. Especially when they're specifically looking to take what's his from him.

He'll come back covered in blood either way, but if he's in a bad mood, or you haven't been on your best behavior, he'll tell you all about what they looked like. He makes sure to mention that they were looking for you, and describe in detail everything he did to them.

"I'm going to leave his corpse out to rot in the sun," he hissed into your ear, pulling away to look you in the eye, "for the vultures and serpents to feast on. It serves him right. He was on a fool's errand; it's impossible to retrieve what's lost to the sands."

@putrescencx liked for an oc & got orion!

AFTER FIVE YEARS IN THE U.S., ORION RETURNED to a world on fire.

he was warned that things were terribly chaotic in japan, that it was the epicenter of the veritable earthquake rippling through the globe. even THE TOWER is rattled — and for the leader of an international crime syndicate, the one who remains calm even in their most violent moments, that is saying something. even though seph isn't around to translate their fearless leader's microexpressions for him, he can tell that they fear losing two hundred years of built-up power and stability. all of their steadfast connections to world leaders. all of their agents, spread out into the populations of almost every country. their operations, their plans for the future. it could all go up in smoke.

and in truth, some deep, shameful part of him hopes that it does. he hopes this war destroys the unseen. he has never forgiven the tower for ripping his sister's arms from her, for taking his eye and binding the both of them to the unseen forever.

it is this part of him that compelled him to answer the anonymous invitation to talk. no one knows — not the tower, not his coworkers. if he disappears tonight, they will have no idea why. it could very easily be a trap. it could be one of the unseen's rivals, drawing out their agents one by one to kill them off. it could be seeking information. it could be offering a deal. it is a bad idea, he knows — hell, shouta would kill him for this — but what has his life come to over the last three years? half-empty with his twin torn from him by her own monstrous spiral, performing criminal acts for an organization he hates? what's left of him? when he looks in the mirror, he isn't sure.

could you tell me more about your trans Lucian headcannon? :3

ABSOLUTELY I CAN!!!!

Transfem!/egg!Lucian is a soft headcanon for me, and this headcanon is mostly concerned with like. How SnazzyShipping led to that egg cracking

But yeah basically transfem!Cynthia is a hard headcanon for me; I think she transitioned young and is either stealth or the Pkmn world is like a magical transphobia-free paradise, but either way, it's not super common knowledge

Anyway in some random universe that lives in my head, egg!Lucian learns Cynthia is transfem and is a little too interested in the how and why. Like not invasive questions just like. How did you know. What did it feel like. How did you feel the first time you put on a dress. And eventually she's like Hey baby...... humor me and try this on. And then. Well.

And then they are a transfem power couple

Funnily enough, I think they would have a similar approach to femininity? Like the ship is called Snazzy Shipping for a reason and they both have money, so I think it would be a lot of slinky dresses and high heels and updos for the both of them. I can see Lucian containing to rock suits as well, but more genderfucked

5, 12, 13, 17 & 29 for liah hehehe <3

WOOHOOOO let's go this ask game is licherally perfect for liah. thank you red!!!!

(oc battle asks)

5. fighting style?

liah is a soldier and jedi guardian so she heavily emphasizes melee combat with fast and powerful strikes, aiming to dispatch her opponent before they can react or counterattack! she doesn't use force powers much besides augmenting her speed and mobility and the occasional force push when needed. she's a much more physical jedi than bastila or jolee for example.

jedi guardians can also use force jump to instantly close the distance to enemies and it's perfect for liah because she is the frontline fighter and will gladly jump right into the fray before the rest of the party has even drawn their weapons. just picture her zooming and flipping and spinning across the battlefield and just. destroying her enemies with the sheer force of her momentum. god she's so cool. in one in-game dialogue carth says "you've got the skills of an elite commando" and it's like. so true bestie.....

also liah uses a double-bladed lightsaber right. as a padawan she learned that the double-bladed lightsaber can deal more damage but is also more difficult to master than the common single-bladed one so obviously she decided she would have to master it. to challenge herself and to prove that she can. and also because the idea of being more powerful fascinated her. this was absolutely not a red flag and did not herald her fall to the dark side at all

12. what is their attitude towards winning?

to liah winning is something to be proud of and proof that all her training is paying off! she is confident in her skills and she goes into almost every battle with the mindset that she will win. and in a life-or-death situation she will of course do everything she can to ensure victory but in a less serious encounter - like the duel ring on taris - it's more about the opportunity to challenge herself and see how far she can push herself and how much better she can get. i mean she still takes it seriously and expects to win lmao but being the adrenaline junkie she is she's also there to have a good time and enjoy the thrill of the fight.

13. what is their attitude towards losing?

due to her (sometimes unfounded) confidence liah tends to forget that she's not invincible and can actually lose? and when she loses she becomes weirdly frustrated and retreats into the mini gym she set up inside the ebon hawk to blow off steam on the punching bag. but once the shock and anger wears off and her mind is clear she will meditate on what she can learn from the loss. and then she goes back to training to work on her weaknesses so she won't lose next time. it's that unwavering shonen protag style resolve baby

17. speed, strength or strategy?

speed and strength in equal measure? she's not stupid (i gave her 14 int in character creation bc a guide told me to ok) or incapable of devising strategies when a situation calls for it but she is reckless and so certain of her own abilities that most of the time she thinks she doesn't need any strategy besides "lightsaber go wWwoooOom"

this of course doesn't always work and liah will have to confront the harsh truth that she has weaknesses that the others can cover with their strengths. she eventually learns to listen to the more cautious companions and work together with them as a team 🫶

29. who do they want to fight the most?

carth lol... verbally at least. in an actual fight liah would most likely curb-stomp him so it's a good thing their arguments never turn physical. or do they 😳

to give a proper answer tho... malak i guess? like yea she wants to stop him but after the Reveal it becomes personal and she wants to 1v1 malak and will stop at nothing to strike him down herself. also not to get too deep abt this but like... she probably wants to fight herself more than anyone. would love to kick her own ass. unfortunately she can't fight herself physically but damn if she doesn't have some inner war with herself going on 24/7. it's rough.

[sxcret-garden]

nr 6 for ateez 😝

<<333

6. What song I love my bias the most in.

I'm gonna do all biases because nobody can stop me and I'll start with San because among the three I have the least amount of thoughts for him ksdfjskfjas (sorry... also this is under the cut because..... you'll see kasdjflkdöas)

ok first of all... mist. his voice sounds so soft in the entire song and he's singing this so well??? also in arriba his short line right before the last chorus sounds SOOO good, i really love his voice when he sings with that energy!!! another song that just has to be mentioned here is turbulence, he's so dramatic in the second chorus but i think that's what made me notice his voice especially in this song!! also inception, because of the vocals, but also because of his choreo in the chorus!!!!! (to mention choreo once in the entire post lol)

I'm semi-normal about wooyoung's parts, so I'll do him next aksdjfklsa and i just want to say celebrate. like????? the very first time i heard that song my immediate reaction to his parts was that they need to let him sing like that more often!!!! he sounds SO GOOD there????? and when he gets the right lines you can actually hear that this guy has a lot of power in his voice (idk, i tend to notice this especially in songs where the first time a line appears they give it to jongho and then the second time wooyoung sings it, like the comparison just makes it so clear how much energy woo has in his voice when used right!!) idk i've been dying to say this somewhere and i WILL say it again so!!!!!!! (alsoalso to mention choreo a second time - the lil butt shake in crazy form, like that's so him and so cute and he looks so happy doing it too 🥺)

now for jongho.... the answer is every song ever but i'll try to single some out (brace yourselves because i will not shut up anytime soon) askdfjklas and i'm gonna start with silver light because i'm listening to it right now and like... his adlibs in the end plsssssssss i love them so much!!! and OF COURSE i also have to mention this world because omgggggg he sounds so good in the chorus hhhhh (in general i am absolutely IN LOVE with how they use their voices throughout that album, and his especially - part of why it's my fav album of theirs!!) ok but the song that actually came to mind first for him is also celebrate, because have you heard his adlibs at the end? have you HEARD them????????? this guy is actually insane. i also wanna mention don't stop because he barely gets lines on the lower end and... yeah, ouch aksdljfksjadlk i also feel the need to mention cyberpunk here... but i'm thinking of that one stage they did on music bank especially, because this guy sounds even better live and everytime he does that one high note i ascend to whatever heavens there may or may not be aksdjfklsad and before i shut up i'm gonna remind you all that he was on lee mujin service (i am begging you to watch it if you haven't yet) and i cannot put into words how much i love his cover of don't go today, i'm really not a ballad type of person but holy shit... yeah.. just watch it.... (idk i just get so happy listening to him sing and Do His Thing and go a lil insane with it because he's just THAT good and knowing that he's put so many years of work and practice into building that skill is really admirable to me and also kinda motivates me to work hard on the things i enjoy too so :/ ilovehimokbye)

(also the much needed honorable mention: yeosang in halazia. he's not a bias but used to be so it counts aksdjflksa no but seriously if kq doesn't let him have more lines that are actually in his range i will throw hands.)

send me a number and a group~

[sunbratz]

a fun games called am i having a bad day or is it seasonal depression

[meaningofaeons]

!!!! fellow oi reader hello!! may i ask what ois you've read so far sorry for being so straightforward it's just that hardly anybody i know reads oi and it's kinda embarrassing for me ahahaha

gepard feels like he'll fit in so much as either the personal knight trope or captain of the king's guards. stelle could also be the personal knight i guess? but the kind where 'villainess needs somebody on their side so they take in a foreign traveler in to be their maid/knight/personal aide', except said foreign traveler happens to rifle through the trash of everything.

jing yuan already feels like the emperor in hsr, he's just so perfectly regal in that sense. yanqing could be like the captain for jing yuan's guards, or his (adopted) heir who first (sibling-like relationship) meets and bonds with the reader without yanqing or reader knowing each other's true rank.

will there be a magic system? there is the 'mischievous/sly wizard of the tower' position that could go to sampo. i know you'll probably only write for the characters you listed so i'm deviating because i have so much brainrot about this right now, but i'm imagining march 7th also as a novice wizard/magician who's a friend of stelle. herta would also definitely be a wizard of the tower, probably would own/be the head of it. himeko feels so much like the ally duchess/marchioness character, with welt being another duke/marquess (or himeko's adoptive father if you're into honkai impact 3rd lore) or even royal advisor maybe.

blade as the cold duke of the north fits so well - sad backstory, red eyes, dark hair, slightly unhinged personality - a perfect match! dan heng could be the 'mysterious librarian who was the only neutral/slightly sympathetic person to the reader, but also never helped them outright in the first life'. friends with march and stelle, of course. speaking of second lives...

will the reader be reincarnated with a 2nd chance at life fix-it story, with the previous memories of the original timeline's bad ending and character actions? there's so much potential for angst if any of the characters betrayed her or weren''t on her side originally and the reader doesn't know who to trust nor like or love.

sorry for this word vomit, please don't feel pressured, it's just that i love your idea and i've gotten so hooked on hsr!!

( ↀДↀ)✧ GASP (=^✧ｪ✧^=))ﾉ彡☆ HELLO FELLOW OI READER !!!!! HOW ARE YOU ???? I feel the SAME way, hardly anyone I know reads ois or manhwas of any kind so I'm stuck in my own little visual novel enjoying corner (≅ᆽ≅)

I've read tons!! I don't have my full list on me rn (I am at work ;m;) but I can name a few off the top of my head! some of these are less isekai and more reincarnation/time travel, but I'll list them anyways! I'll put them beneath the cut along with my comments on your ideas since it gets pretty long LOL

my next life as a villainess: all routes lead to doom, the villainess turns the hourglass, a stepmother's märchen/fantasie of a stepmother, who made me a princess, actually I was the real one, I fell into the world of a reverse harem game, death is the only ending for the villainess, I will master this family, the tyrant wants to be good, lady and the beast, taming of the tyrant, roxana/how to protect the heroine's older brother, the rebirth of a tyrannical empress, sister in this life I'll be the queen, the duchess' 50 tea recipes, father I don't want this marriage, how to be a dark hero's daughter, the villainess is a marionette, and many, many MANY more.

this is actually only a small part of my list! again, I am at work, so I don't have my full (and unfortunately sorta not updated) manhwa list, but I think this is a good show of what I usually read lol!

I'll start on your comments from the top! FIRST OFF, SAME BRAIN!!! (=♡ ᆺ ♡=) while gepard is kind of a shoe-in for the personal knight that falls for the mc, I was ABSOLUTELY hooked on the idea stewing in my brain about stelle being a knight of some sort as well, with the only conflict being "well there can't be TWO personal friendly knights that love reader..." BUT THE IDEA ABOUT HER BEING THE TROPE OF THE FOREIGN TRAVELER/BEGGAR WITH SWORDSMANSHIP TALENT TO BE THEIR KNIGHT IS ABSOLUTELY GENIUS I BOW TO YOUR BRILLIANT MIND!!!!!!!!! OR MAYBE SHES LIKE A DEPOSED NOBLE WHO READER GIVES A CHANCE TO *:･ﾟ✧(=✪ ᆺ ✪=)*:･ﾟ✧

I agree on jing yuan, and I think that idea sounds rlly cute for yanqing!!! (=´ᆺ｀=)

I LOVE your sampo idea too. I kinda get lucas vibes from who made me a princess minus the maliciousness and adding 100x more sleazy swindly-type guy vibes, he's totally a bastard when it comes to provoking the other love interests behind ur back... the march 7th idea is cute too! I could also see her as reader's maid! and yes herta 100% head mage of the tower thats so real...

I am not mega into hi3 lore but I DO know about the dynamic between welt and himeko!!! I would love her to have a role like duchess tuania in remarried empress, a master of the social world who aides the reader. maybe welt is her adoptive father and she's trying to earn his trust to take over the duchy, and she thinks he won't pass it on to her, but little does she know he thinks she's more than capable and is making plans to give the duchy to her soon!!!

BLADE RLLY IS A SHOE-IN FOR THE DUKE OF THE NORTH HUH... that guy covers all the bases. "the monster duke" of the rumors... I think that's def what his position will be. for dan heng, ONCE AGAIN YOUR BRAIN IS HUGE!! the quiet, scholarly-type ML who helps the reader in business dealings or things requiring an analyst type to help, like maybe information gathering... I think having him run an information guild as the trope goes would be a Bit much for dan heng since I don't see him as much of a leader in that sense, but I think he's definitely got connections to some underground info guilds (=｀ﻌ´=) maybe he is friends w stelle and march as you say, and he is a lower ranked noble who knew stelle and helps the reader as thanks for giving his friend a chance? :o cold, but he cares!!!

I would love 2 hear your ideas for kafka if you have any!!! you have such amazing ideas anon!!!!

as for the reincarnation thing, I'm still not 100% sure yet but I DO like that idea... I love the mc going from villain/ridiculed noble to execution to reincarnating and either taking revenge on those who wronged them, making their life better (and by extension the lives around them who they care for), or both!

thank you again for the wonderful ask!!! you should totally send another one any time!!! I look forward to hearing more of ur thoughts, oi anon!!!! (≗ᆽ≗)ﾉ

What's your nanowrimo project gonna be?

Thank you for asking <3 :D

I'm writing a fan...fiction? fan nonfiction-written-in-the-wrong-universe for ouatis, about the Rose Reds! Basically, the idea is that it's an in-universe book that was written after the war, where an author interviewed a bunch of surviving Rose Reds and shared their stories with the aim of humanizing them to the rest of the galaxy. Each chapter focuses on a different Rose Red and an aspect of their lives and story, and ties it in with broader discussions on how Rose Reds were treated during the war and since (hint: it's not good).

There will be twelve chapters, plus an introduction and conclusion, all with my made-up citations of news stories, broadcasts and press conferences, and Crown documents. After NaNo, I plan to edit, polish, and refine, and then post it to A03 as a massive exercise in nerdery :D It also, functionally, will be a treatise on a good deal of the Rose Red lore @/gunpowderdtim and I have developed, and our worldbuilding of the galaxy of ouatis. I'm very excited for it and hope it sounds as cool to at least a couple other people as it does to me <3

HI ITS ME AGAIN fhfjfjgj

i just..i think about the difference between "loner" and "mirailight" alot and it makes me feel insane

like with how in Loner its almost self deprecating and his conflict is his past,and how he just wants it to change,and wants to become something that he couldnt before

BUT IN MIRAILIGHT like hes THERE now yknow and like the vibes are all different imo the softer tone when singing the way he says (roughly bc i know translations probably arent perfect) that hes been led into the future ,i just think about how all this time he had to do everything himself,always had to be on guard, always had to be someone he wasnt,but in mirailight everything is so different and then i go insane (as usual)

i just think the songs are such good ways to compare their growths as characters and just ARGH i am normal!!

HELLO HELLO,, YESSS !!! They're so good to demonstrate his growth, and the one thing I adore that they did with Mirailight was that he explicitly tells us his journey still isn't over. Like he reached his goal of becoming an actor and he wasn't content with just that, he needs to be the absolute best he can and that's just so fundamentally ingrained in his character.

Loner is so much more sombre and melancholy, not even just the lyrics, but the instrumentation too. Sure it swells at points, but it's kinda like a mirror to his portrait. Rather than pomp and flair, the song uses pure emotion and emphasises the truest desperation. I like to think how it shows he truly was alone before, and he could only rely on himself to express how he felt. It was raw, bare-bones, honest, open and truthful. The couple of lines that always stand out to me in Loner are about how he may as well be himself and it doesn't matter who he is because on stage he can become somebody entirely different. Because yeah, that's initially why he wanted to do this in the first place, he wanted to erase all evidence of the "monster of o high" and just be a normal guy.

But then in Mirailight, as you said he got there, he was led into the future he always wanted. But I find it interesting that he says (roughly, again with translation approximations) "Reflect on someone else's life and weave it into my life", he's acknowledging himself, Juza Hyodo, as a person. There's not just bare bones instrumentation anymore either, there's strings and synth and so much more complex backing, but that clean guitar is still there and pretty prominent above all of it. He's not just becoming another person to escape himself, but using his own experiences to further understand his characters rather than just being a 2d character from a page with no deeper motivations yk? (no offence to tsuzuru ofc, that was yuzo's criticism of aki with picturesque) And he's still looking forward to the future, even brighter, now he has support and opportunities and more than he could have ever imagined. He isn't done growing as an actor or a person, he is still striving for better but he's in a much better place to do so and that's the beauty of Juza I think.

The two are like sunset and sunrise* in terms of how different they are (the sun setting, leaving the world bleak and dark and generally yearning for the warmth of the sun/spotlight contrasted to the dawn of a new day with promise of a fresh start and new possibilities). Hell, it even says as much in mirailight in the first verse.

ANYWAY I completely getchu and am sooo normal about him too :]

*this wasn't related to music, but I think it's interesting how Juza's inital unbloomed SSR is him at sunset and then his second base unbloomed SSR is him at sunrise (AND it's called My Steps Have Become Light Too, are you kidding-). Could just be a coincidence, but he is so sunset/sunrise coded to me.

favorite and bling for salieri? :)

i draw Salieri most often with heart jewelry and collars! They really love everything pink and heart shaped so picking earrings is a snap. the collars are for,, obvious reasons, but also worn as a fashion statement. An onyx wedding band also sometimes makes an appearance, but none of the vampires in the polycule are frequent ring wearers despite having been married for just over a century.

As for articles of clothing, they don't really have a specific favorite as much as a preferred style. Salieri's a historical fashion enthusiast and a metalhead; I actually made a pinterest board recently for the general Vibe(tm).

💕 — canon-can-fight-me

this is my first time writing a good chunk of olive's story down so forgive me if its jumbled <3 im about to go ham

olive lives in ~1970 america and graduated with a major in botany and a minor in culinary arts. prior to her travels in the tardis, she lived in a little vw bus with a kitten named celeste! she doesn't have a very good relationship with her family as she didnt live up to their expectations, which is why she travels so often!

she met the doctor after a protest went very wrong. she'd been on her old college campus (just four months after graduating) and had joined friends in a protest against the war- expecting to just peacefully sit around and talk as others gave speeches. but, like other protests at the time, things went wrong very quickly and olive soon found herself in a field alone, with a horrible pain in her shoulder. this was when some goofy looking man came up to her and began asking some very odd questions. "what year is it? where are we?" had olive not been too shocked to move, she probably wouldve looked at him like he was... well, an alien.

despite her usual fear of men, this stranger seemed very different. whether it was the way he spoke, how he moved around, or by the way he dressed, something about him allowed her to calm down and she allowed him to patch up the wound in her shoulder. she'd even showed him her lil vw bus once she felt better and the doctor got to meet lil celeste! watching the kitten play with his scarf is what helped olive finally conclude that this guy probably wasn't going to kill her and she used this opportunity to more formally introduce herself to him.

as they spoke, the doctor began to pepper in little details about not being a human, travelling through time, and his ship- the tardis! but, since it was the seventies, olive wasnt entirely sure if he was just pulling her leg or if he was high off of something. nevertheless, she wanted to be polite to the man who had just rescued her and followed him to the little police box. that was when she realized that, damn, this guy *is* an alien!

from there, they began to travel about- olive eventually meeting sarah jane, harry, and the brigadier during their adventures. though she preferred to travel through the decades on earth, olive often found that her knowledge of plants came in handy on alien planets! whether it was to identify something useful or harmful, she was always so intrigued to learn more about the universe. despite this though, her favorite thing to learn about was always the doctor!

she related very closely to his story of leaving all the stuffy timelords behind on gallifrey to explore the universe. after all, she'd left her parent's home to never return as they hated her love for music, parties, drugs, etc. they also wanted her to be an accountant, which olive thought sounded awful!!

later into their journey, they found themselves wandering about ancient rome together. the doctor was pointing out landmarks, describing the colosseum, and the different buildings dedicated to the gods. eventually, though, a priest approached them, brought them to the temple of venus, and excitedly gave them a bottle of wine! the doctor eventually figured that the man saw olive in her flower crown and flowy robes and had wrongfully assumed she was in wedding attire- but neither of them would say no to free wine!! u could say it was either the wrong or right day to wear orange depending on how u look at it.

after beginning to help themselves to the wine, olive quickly discovered that 1.) the romans made some strong wine and 2.) alcohol didn't have much of an effect on timelords! so, after getting a bit of bread and olive oil to dip it in, they returned to the tardis to snack. long story short, olive the lightweight ended up announcing how cute she thought the doctor was before prompting him to close his eyes so that she could kiss him. by then, the doctor was like "haha ok maybe u should go to bed ur drunk" but olive didnt want to- she wanted to stay up with her favorite timelord and compliment him more!! he eventually got her to sleep though- worried that she was just speaking drunken nonsense. olive, however, had been entirely honest that night and woke up a horrible, blushing mess. much to the doctor's delight, though, she bashfully admitted that everything she said was true and, if it was okay, she'd very much like to kiss him again.

long after their relationship began, closer to the end of his regeneration, olive was thinking about how leela married a timelord on gallifrey and was like, damn. i want that. and so she got that!! it was a little wedding bc olive is a bit intimidated by the timelords, but she got to see leela and romana again and was happy she got her cute timelord husband!

shortly after that, olive decided to stop traveling the universe, but she didn't want to return to the seventies! there was far too many serial killers and so much war. so, with the doctors help, she decided to hop a bit forward in time and settled on ~2014. olive then upgraded to an rv, planted her own garden, and runs a little bakery somewhere in the countryside of maine! she still has occasional adventures with the doctor, though, and he visits her as often as he can! sure, he may be booked for two centuries, but that's nothing compared to his lifespan. the time war does put a dent in their time together but <3 you know.

the only last thing i know is that she has some kind of sonic device that connects to his screwdriver in case of emergencies. i haven't decided what it is yet, but all i can think of is a lil key fob !!
