[wishiwasntstillhere]

N and P for the ask game?

owo!!! thank you for ask!!!

N - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).

my main fandom is ouran rn as we know. hmmmm ok so the things coming up are mostly things i don’t get to see a lot of bc of my corner of the fandom but im jsut going to say them anyway.

1) harurenge. this is easy, we been knew. i am obsessed with them rn and unfortunately there is not a lot of content for them (which makes perfect sense given fandom demographics and the actual cast demographics and bla bla bla) and i would Love more harurenge content. i’m going to cheat and include this here too: i would love to see more sympathetic/nuanced depictions of renge in general? i understand lots of people find her annoying but i also like to think she has capacity to grow and Does Grow and i also just want to see more of her.

2) this might sound a little strange bc it’s kind of very incredibly specific but??? i want to us to talk more about the mechanics of haruhi grieving her mom and recovering from that. i know we already see a lot about haruhi’s over-responsibility in the show, as well as her aspiring to be like her mom, and her missing her mom, and her not being used to relying on people because her parents are kind of absent. but i feel like we could dig into that a little more. one of the reasons haruhi in wonderland is so dear to me is because its one of the few times the show slows down and says hey, this is what it means that haruhi is actually growing to love and feel comfortable loving the host club.

in the aftermath of love me braver i was talking to my friend and basically i just had a lot of thoughts about haruhi’s character maybe has been more subtly shaped by this tragic event in her life, and i was going to dump that here but maybe i’ll make a separate post bc its kinda... long. but i would like to as a fandom talk about that more explicitly. give haruhi’s emotions more screentime, they get brushed over a lot bc of host favoritism and bc her character on the surface seems pretty steady and cool but there’s a deep wound behind that and while she’s mostly well-adjusted i wanna explore it more.

3) more female characters in general. i’m actually planning a little miniseries about some of the host club’s guests. i think there are a lot of reasons one might go to a host club and the potential friendships and dynamics there could be really cool. also just. the host club is canonically For Girls we should see more girls lol. gimme more info about their regulars.

rereading all these it is very clear that i am in a Women mood. good for me. ouran fandom needs more women. tbf if i had a fourth one i would say more hikaru&tamaki bro time. hikaru likes tamaki so much, guys. like kaoru does too but kaoru is aware of it and able to deal with it mostly. hikaru is a disaster and tamaki loves him dearly.

P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).

mwahahahahaha ok so here’s the thing i am currently at 34 ouran aus in my doc (i will NOT be writing them all but anyway) so i’m just going to talk about one of them. zombie apocalypse au with a twist that im not going to tell you guys because i actually intend to write this one.

renge and kyoya are out on a Parent Mandated Date (they are not interested in each other they just are there for appearances) when the world ends. zombies everywhere. they escape the restaurant and find themselves in the midst of a zombie infestation. through renge’s extensive knowledge of video games and kyoya’s extensive knowledge of ootori emergency response protocols, they determine they have to make it to the ootori stronghold. together, they fight their way to safety, hoping desperately that their friends are safe there too.
