#Ashes To Ashes [Muse Answers]

[looking-for-lost-stars]

Ash received a message from the planet the Milan was berthed over. "Lord Finley, this is lord Zarath, I'd like to make use of your services." The voice was slightly sneering, exactly what you would expect of a noble on an important planet such as this.

- Noctine for Ash

Ash sighed the tone alone made him want to say no. This was exactly why he didn't usually stop by his more well off planets. He set a reply a few moments later. "What service exactly?"

[the-silver-peahen-residence]

Sleepy Ash broke into the residence and hugs Mahiru tightly, trembling and his face bury on his Eve's shoulder.

As Mahiru was reading something, he felt or heard something. "Huh?" Before getting up to check it out, he got hugged tight by Kuro.

"H..Huh?! Kuro? What's wrong?" he asked hugging him back wondering what was wrong while rubbing his back.

Please please PLEASE for the ask game I am intrigued by "Ikoma Left Behind"

As you probably guessed from the WIP title, it's a Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress fanfiction, and “Ikoma Left Behind” is sooo self-indulgent. I recently finished the first draft after kicking around the idea with some false starts, and renamed it “A Phoenix From the Ashes.” 

I started with the idea, “what if Ikoma hadn't gotten onto the Koutetsujou and managed to survive in Aragane Station, Robinson Crusoe-ing it up and stubbornly clearing the whole thing out of kabane?” Ikoma does just that—he doesn't have Mumei to tell him what a kabaneri is so he finds out everything the hard way. Especially his newfound need for blood. He teams up with a very old kotif oc of mine, Tomoyo, who is an average human and here becomes a blood supplier for Ikoma. (That’s the self-indulgent part—it's the first fic I wrote that both prominently includes an oc and directly contradicts canon. Every other oc I've made for fandoms has been able to conceivably fit into canon without disrupting it. But I had the urge to develop Tomoyo after five years, finish off this story, and ignore all my preconceptions about contradictory oc inserts, so I got this out of it!)

It's primarily an exploration of some kabaneri abilities and Ikoma's feelings about it—in canon, he wouldn't have gotten back onboard the Koutetsujou if Mumei and Takumi hadn't grabbed him. He fully believed himself to be turning into a kabane and had finally lost hope. my fanfiction picks up there, and details Ikoma's struggle to come to terms with himself without any support except Tomoyo (who, being human, can't share his experience), and he can't stop fighting even when he believes himself lost.

Since I stepped out of my comfort zone to write this, I actually found a beta reader (something I've never done before either) and it's currently with them. I expect to post it soon after I get their feedback!

Answer every character ask for Joey Wheeler please.

1. Why do you like or dislike this character?

Oh geez, I love my Joey boy so much, honestly. One thing that I think is really great, and I know I've seen other people mention this before, is just how real he feels. His characters is so multifaceted and goes through so much development, and he just feels like such a real dude.

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

Just, everything? He has certified golden retriever energy with his deep love and loyalties, and it's one of the best things about him.

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

I do get annoyed by some of his more obnoxious behavior, and sometimes he's downright embarrassing, but that comes with the territory of being a teenager.

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

I do think seeing Joey as a random bystander in a Marvel movie would be a good giggle.

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

Ship songs aside, the first song I could come up with was Hall of Fame by Gym Class Heroes. Boy knows what wants. Being at the top, right up there with Kaiba and Yugi, is his repeated goal throughout the series.

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

Brooklyn roots, going by the dub. My grandfather was born there, lived most of his life there. The other thing we have in common is being not on speaking terms with our mothers. 🥰

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

The fandom never lets us forget where Joey started: violent, street-tough bully trying to scrape a life together basically on his own. As much as I love cute happy Joey chilling with the scapegoats and his pals, it would be such a disservice to forget where he came from.

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

I actually can't think of anything? I think the fandom generally treats Joey well.

9. Could you be roommates with this character?

That's actually a tough question. Depends on how good he is about cleaning up after himself. I think we could probably with something out though, a deal that involves trading chores for meals.

10. Could you be best friends with this character?

Probably, but I'd probably be at least half as naggy as Tea is with him. The "omg Joey use a napkin boi" kind of nagging, but I think he'd fit right in and we could tease and be goofy.

11. Would you date this character?

I'm married, so the safe answer is no lol

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

Boy had to get good at taking care of himself, so he shops deals and coupons and plans his meals around those, even when he's more financially secure. It's an ingrained habit.

13. What's an emoji, an emoticon and/or any symbol that reminds you of this character or you think the character would use a lot?

🐶😜😄🤬

14. Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character.

90s punk/grunge he could so rock that

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

Aw, I can only pick one? If I had to go based off of the Joey ships I've written, it would be Puppyshipping, but I think Puffshipping is crazy precious. And I can't shut up about Polarshipping anytime he and Mai are in a scene together, their chemistry is too good. So those are my top three. There's so many good Joey ships though!!!

16. What's your least favorite ship for this character?

I don't know that I have one? Not as far as popular ships go. I'm not big into Riskshipping, I can only see it as being unhealthy even with Mokuba aged up. (Irateshipping and Fadeshipping aren't necessarily healthy either, but they're very fascinating.)

17. What's a ship for this character you don't hate but it's not your favorite that you're fine with?

So, on the DM shipping list is Babbleshipping, which is Joey x Kisara, which I just can't imagine working (and I've never seen any fanworks for it either), but I also find the idea of Joey swooping in as Mr. Steal Your Dragon Girlfriend from Kaiba kinda hilarious.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

Joey's got a lot of great pals, but I think Tristan is just such a solid bro to him throughout the whole show (except for hitting on Serenity which is still so weird to me cause she's 12). But the advice he was giving him in Season Four regarding Mai was honestly solid advice: "give up on her, man, you're just going to get hurt if you keep going like this." It's just too sweet. Joey doesn't listen to him ofc because this boy never gives up.

19. How about a relationship they have in canon that you don't like?

Obviously I wish he had a better relationship with his dad, but it's Yugioh: good dads aren't allowed.

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

I think Duke is actually a godd logical, grounding, down to earth presence for Joey to be around. Duke is not afraid to call him on his crap, and I can just see then getting along pretty well, esp once Joey's matured just a little bit more.

22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to ths character? Something you don't like?

I appreciate when people write him with the accent, even if it's only slightly. It's just a fun detail imo. I appreciate the details people create to fill in his exact background as a fighter and how he lives and stuff. The attention to detail with the roots of who he is as a person.

23. Favorite picture of this character?

The first thing that popped into my mind is a fanart of his previous small smile, but I assume this is asking for canon images, so... Just look how happy and cool he is!!!!! And his Lord of Red appearance is just too heckin cool for me to not include.

24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?

I think Ashe Duran from FE3H would be able to relate to him with their roots in poverty and both changing (Joey from a bully and Ashe from a thief) into becoming the best, most noble versions of themselves that they can be. They have the sweetest smiles and would do anything to protect their little siblings.

Rock from Nanbaka is a little similar I guess, but Rock comes from money and has a much more refined palette when it comes to food. Rock was still a gang member though, just like Joey, and they both think with their stomachs and are still brawlers. Also literally delinquents.

If I had to compare him to someone in UtaPri, I'd say he's got the same mischief vibes as Reiji, but the better match is the happy sunshine child Otoya Ittoki who's been through a lot and had a rough childhood but won't let it get him down. The future is full of opportunity for these boys.

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

Oh geez, let me think back to twelve year old me... I really can't recall. I remember one of my first impressions in fandom was rejecting puppyshipping, partly just because it was popular, and then the more I learned about the characters separately, the more it compelled me, but that's another story.

My impression of him now? I love this man, he is a beacon of love and loyalty and getting better, which is a good example that all of us need sometimes honestly.

26. FREEBIE QUESTION!!

GUYS I KNOW SEASON FOUR HAD ISSUES BUT IT DID GOOD STUFF FOR JOEY. IT GAVE US HERMOS. IT GAVE US ATLANTIS JOEY. JOEY IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS YUGI AND KAIBA IN A METAPHYSICAL SENSE. HE'S JUST AS MUCH OF A HERO THAT SAVED THE WORLD. HE'S NOT "JUST JOEY." HE IS JOEY FUCKING WHEELER, AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT.

Seriously though, imagine how validated that made Joey feel? Surrounded by shadow magic and "chosen ones" and all this talk of reincarnation and destiny, and he thinks he's just along for the ride until wham! No bitch, you're special too! That's gotta warm his heart and make him smile, even after bad days working shitty jobs, or getting second place at a tournament. He's a legendary knight, his soul is tied to the Spirit World just as strongly as Yugi and Kaiba. He'll never lose his confidence ever again as long as he remembers that.

Also, I love the idea of him having all daughters. He's going to spoil them and be so crazy protective of them. He will never let them think they're anything less than gorgeous. He will sit down to tea parties with the frilly princessy one and give fighting tips to the butch one and adore all of them and very publicly threaten their partners with bodily harm if you ever dare hurt his girls. Dad Joey makes me happy. ❤️

"Shut Up" Kiss Meme | Open

@escortingsecrets asked: "Stop overthinking it and just…" 💋 for Evan

"Shivan, wha--"

Was he overthinking it? No matter the times he wondered about this, it just seemed to not...suit him? At least, that's what he told himself. Was it society and upbringing? Or was it his actual truth? But Shivan was the only person he felt could understand, hear him out, and help him work this out. For whatever reason, Shivan was...the only one he trusted.

And even now, as he stuttered and looked confused as the other leaned in, intentions only half clear to Evan, but actions more than clear, he couldn't very well stop him. Instead, he just sat stock still, a soft noise escaping him at the press of the others lips. His brows furrowed as he just...settled into the moment, wanting to part and question this, not exactly upset or judging Shivan but wondering if going this far was really this necessary...and yet...

Had this entire talk been leading to this and Evan didn't realize it? Or had he? Perhaps there were more reasons he entrusted the discovery and confusion of this side to him, to this man alone...

His hands settled at Shivan's upper arm and elbow, not wanting to touch anywhere that wasn't okay, but feeling like he needed to hold on as lips began to move. It was slow, and neither of them were exploring very far. But fuck if he wasn't feeling warm and tingly all over.

When Shivan finally broke the kiss, Evan had to stop himself from following after. And he just stared at the brunette, speechless and blinking over and over.

Until finally he spoke, "Mmnh--"

Well, tried to speak.

He cleared his throat when all that came out was that embarrassing noise and the already faint blush settled deeper into his skin. "I...I mean, I guess...that...answers part of things... It didn't feel...weird at all, it actually felt...n-nice. Like really nice--"

Nope, stop, before you make yourself seem more stupid than you already do.

He ducked his head, letting the curtain of blond hair hide him as he wondered, now what?

[the-silver-peahen-residence]

Kuro arrives at the residence, and walks inside without introduction. As soon as he spots his Eve, he walks up to him and hugs him close.

"don't leave me...."

"Let me see...that should be a few more..." Mahiru was just done writing down the vampires that was taken down after a while. Though, he knew the other servamps were busy at this time even his own.

Before he got up and would do something, he felt someone walk up to him and hold him. "???" That's when he heard the familiar voice. "Huh? Kuro? Hey, what's wrong?" he asked looking at him worried.

🍰what’s my muse’s guilty pleasure? (from character flaws meme? Banana Fish verse!)

Being a bit too much like a big sister and naggy, she adores to have a chance to interact with a younger person and treat him like a sibling. Even tho she can be a bit too overbearing sometimes, she does that out of genuine care I promise!
