Odd question, if the characters were turned into fruit/vegetables, what would they turn into?

✦゜ANSWERED: This was so silly >:3 <3

Ren: Strawberry [REDACTED]: Cherry Moth: Blueberry Violet: Dragonfruit, maybe even a mango Elanor: Honeydew or pomegranate Conan: Any type of apple Jae: Watermelon or peach Leon: Also a mango, maybe even a coconut Teo: A rotten avocado that's stupidly expensive for some reason

If you were going to rate the dads on 'how likely are they to complain about eating their vegetables' how would you rate them?

I don’t think any of them would really complain about eating their vegetables tbh. They just eat whatever’s given to them. I say Linebeck May struggle the most cuz he doesn’t eat a lot of veggies. Mostly fruit and fish 🤷‍♀️ but idk, some veggies are darn good so I doubt they complain much about it

(Breaking the asks up to individual questions so I can actually start answering some!)

They start doing dinner together as often as they can pretty early on! It becomes an every day thing before too long- and they take turns. Sometimes they cook together, but often, Mari can be a bit of a gremlin and "taste" a few too many of the ingredients before they actually get used, and she gets banned from helping.

Today, is one of those days.

Vogue, how's being a superhero? Have you had any big villain fights lately?

"You wouldn't believe how many villains. Sort of why we've been inactive for a while. Had to lay low, ya know? But Bumblyburg is finally feeling safe enough to blog again! That's...that's how blogging works, right?"

Softer question this time.

Question Three! Siyoh grew up in a bakery. She helped work it. She suffered for it. Does she still bake? Does she have a favorite recipe? A favorite food?

Siyoh's life at this point revolves around food and hospitality. She's dedicated her life to becoming a passionate culinarian and trades woman.

After the revolution Rex helped her reclaim her family's business by financing her purchase of the old family Bakery, which was at least still mostly intact. Now that the occupation had passed Siyoh wanted to restore the honor her parents had fostered before her and celebrate their memory.

She considered reopening a bakery, but with it brought many ill memories of living a life under occupation. Furthermore, since living in Limsa Lominsa she'd learned a lot about both Othardian and Eorzean cooking. Too, she learned many out West were not familiar with Eastern customs nor food, and this was something she wanted to change.

Siyoh is incredibly passionate about Doman (and Thavnarian) culture. She loves spreading the wisdom both her Mother and Father passed on to her about their traditions and culture. She's excited to share Eastern food with those who have never tried it before, and since the revolution brought so many new faces to the East it cultivated the perfect opportunity for her current business, the Umbral Udon, which operates out of the building which used to be her Mother's bakery.

A now thriving venture in the East, it serves primarily as a Ramen Shop/Noodle Bar. However, there is an RSVP only venture in which Siyoh cooks a multi-course meal for a group of up to six diners she calls 'A Taste of the East.' This is mostly for foreigners but some locals enjoy participating too. The goal of this meal is to introduce patrons to an assortment of both Hingan and Doman cuisine and educate them on the historical and cultural influences and significance of each dish.

As a trader following in her Father's footsteps and working with a lot of his pre-established contacts, Siyoh has access to a wide range of the most fresh and delicious ingredients on the Eastern roads, seas, and winds. Further more, as the Umbral Udon works hand in hand with her sister establishment, Azuma's 'The Doman Dragon', they also have a large plot of land where they work their own fresh foods and ingredients.

Her work ethic, trading know-how, and contacts are what likely originally caught Rex's eye and influenced him to finance both establishments. But also likely led to the early attractions between both Rex and Siyoh, who are now romantically involved much much later down the line.

These days, most of the labor for the Umbral Udon is worked by staff which have been carefully curated by Siyoh. Why? Because she has moved her business further West to be more involved with Firelight Trading Company leading their Hospitality division. (You know, so that she can be closer to her man and not an entire ocean apart...)

Part of her job entails things such as curating the menu and management of The Fireside. Which is why if you ever attend one of the Fireside in game roleplay events, you might catch Siyoh make an entrance in the last 20-30 minutes before close to take inventory, see what sold, make adjustments to the menu, and make sure the staff and Baristas (like Mihli and Sarrai) are happy.

So she absolutely still bakes. I don't think she bakes for sale any more, but rather more as a love language for those around her and to keep the memories of her Mother close.

When Siyoh was still spending time under As'htola's roof in Limsa Lominsa, I once wrote about how she covered her kitchen in currant tarts. She spent the entire day and night making them, desperate to perfect them because she could almost remember why they mattered so much to her. And that Starlight, she remembered it was because of her Mother.

So food and cooking, also played major parts in Siyoh regaining her memories and healing too.

Food is her love language, but also a universal language. Food brings people together.

What's your pet peeve about worldbuilding? And why'd you choose to name a flat world after orbs??

There's two pet peeves I have in mind, and this is from my POV as a reader.

The first is using worldbuilding as a poor excuse for writing often lengthy and gratuituous scenes featuring violence (and especially sexual violence) against women and nonwhite or nonwhite-coded people. I don't think I need to explain this in much detail.

The second is not having any space to ponder and interpret other aspects of the fictional world because the author - often due to caving in to fan demand - reveals too much concrete information about the world. I like having a bit of ambiguity. I view this in the same way that an average person might function in the everyday - we don't need to know or remember how every single thing works to live a full, fulfilling life, and not knowing everything is sometimes a smarter way of life.

As for why I named "Orbis" as such, I actually don't remember why. All I know right now is that I didn't want to call it "Gaia", which I associate with the online avatar forum space, GaiaOnline (or GoGaia as some might know it from before its rebranding). If it's any saving grace, while Orbis is a flat world, it's a spherical kind of flat world, similar to a CD.

However, now that you bring up orbs, I think it'd be cool if Orbis was a half flat, half sphere world, like the half of a Pokéball. It would make sense, since one of the deities of structure is literally holding Orbis in the god's palms.

Do you have any jally hcs you wanna share?

oooh, excellent question! honestly i love and agree with a lot of your headcanons (sylvia and johnny looking similar, johnny wearing dally's ring as a necklace, etc)

(under the cut cause this got long)

- dally is bi and johnny is gay

- i go back and forth on whether they ever actually acknowledged/acted on their feelings in canon. i lean towards 'no' but that they had an ambiguous relationship that was basically dating by any other name and full of Unspoken Tension. johnny knew and accepted that he was in love with dally, and dally knew but denied it 'til after johnny died. but i can see it going either way, honestly.

- they share cigarettes pretty much all the time, either dally lighting them for johnny or taking a drag or two and passing it back and forth

- dally thought johnny was kind of annoying/weak when they first met but became curious about him over time.

- they both love dogs and would get like a rottweiler or bull mastiff or something

- johnny is scared of horses until horse girl (gn) dally teaches him how to ride one

- johnny initiates their first kiss but dally's the one to say "i love you" first (it's a complete accident and he's wicked embarrassed about it but johnny won't stop grinning the whole rest of the day so like, it's fine. it's fine.)

- johnny is the king of passive-aggressive silence when dally does something that pisses him off. he won't say a word to dally for 3 days and it drives dally fucking bonkers.

- dally likes teasing johnny but if anyone else says the same shit about him he'll beat their ass

- dally thinks about johnny all the time, always worrying about him and wondering where he is. he'll keep food on him in or try to make something just in case johnny's hungry.

- dally flirts with johnny so much when theyre alone. every third sentence out of his mouth is some compliment or pass at him.

I do think j3 n j4 do enjoy people watching together (let’s say she has the ring of disguise gift so its not double Jaces) but part of it is just j4 asking which people are j3’s type out of like. A genuine curiosity

🌶️ 🥕 for sky 🥺👉👈

Fruit and Vegetable Asks for OCs!

Ah yes, Sky my beloved automatic older sibling--

🌶️ [HOT PEPPER] Who would your OC declare their sworn enemy if they could meet them?

I would say one of the actual antagonists, but Sky's dramatic af so honestly, I think they'd end up in some weird "no I'M Abigail's best older sibling" rivalry with Abigail's actual sister, Charlotte. The two would probably go on and on about how cool they each are, while Abigail witnesses in pure confusion. They will be rivals forever no matter what Abigail tries to do.

But they're also gonna pummel Ben as soon as they lay eyes on that stick of a kid because NO ONE messes with their adopted baby sister (she's barely a year younger than them).

🥕 [CARROT] How tough is your OC against certain situations? How weak are they against others?

Physically, Sky isn't super tough. They could maybe land in a good punch/shove or two, but that's pretty much it. Most people with any sort of fighting training will kick their ass.

But, they're an actor (and a pretty damn good one at that), and they can definitely use that to their advantage. Whether it be pretending to be more hurt than they really are to mentally disarm their opponent or convincing others to help them out, Sky has other ways to be tough.

Thanks for the ask!

🎬📺🍉🥦

🎬 favorite movie:

The Princess Bride. Every time. Greatest movie ever made. It has EVERYTHING. And Inigo is the HEART of that story and I adore him and Mandy Patakin is a fuckin treasure. (Also god where do I find a Wesley. Where is he.)

📺 tv show:

Sheesh is it bad if I say diners drive ins and dives 😅 honestly during the first months of lockdown I joked that Guy Fieri was my roommate. Nah but I guess all time favorite…idk I’m less of a tv person is the issue. I loved Scrubs. I’m obviously on a HOTD kick. HIMYM was so dear to my heart. I’ll say Scrubs I guess cuz my friends and I in high school would pile on the basement couch and binge it and those are good memories

🍉 fruit:

Apples!

🥦: veggie

Do we count corn? I love corn. You know the corn meme that went around? ITS CORN! I’m that kid. Also snap peas in stir fry are so good.

THANK YOU FLOOD ILY ❤️
