KIRITO (KAZUTO KIRIGAYA) from SWORD ART ONLINE

JUSTIFICATION:

"depressed lonely 14-year old with the social grace of a block of concrete and the worst coping mechanisms despite trying her best, and consistently insecure about her appearance. other characters repeatedly bring up "he" doesn't really feel like other guys when interacting with her. and then we get to the phantom bullet arc where in the span of 2 days we see her express more emotions than most of the past 2 seasons combined, *coincidentally* in the *one* game where her avatar unambiguously looks like a girl (which she gets used to hilariously fast and seems to enjoy to an extent that seems frankly inexplicable if she were a cis "guy")" - @approximateknowledge

this isn't really a headcanon, more just a random thought instigated by unital ring worldbuilding:

so insectsite, right? like i absolutely love that it exists, but i cannot stop imagining an sao scenario happening in *that* game

like, getting used to your real body after 2 years in sao isbad enough, but imagine literally being a bug for that time and suddenly you have to come to terms with having one less pair of limbs when it's over

would that be fucked up or what?!

i was excited when you said there'd be a bunch of polls but turns out im too european for them, alas

i would do a poll with all the european countries but i don't think i can fit them all and i don't want to spam people more than i already have 😔

Status: Future Muse Danaus Syrgia is a shy and timid little Burgundyblood who has magic abilities! Although she fears using them do to the fact of her Ancestor's legacy. Fear has dictated her life for most of her sweeps, resulting in her openly refusing to use her magic bc she fears she'll end up following in her Ancestor's footsteps Yes I'm keeping things vague hehe :^)

-“”“terraformed”“” to

be *worse* (something something forge

world of holy mars)

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

what they don't tell you about being a long-time scifi enjoyer is that you'll keep mentally accumulating different versions of mars

there's a few typical categories, like:

-fully terraformed

-"terraformed" canopy-dome style

-always habitable dw about it (<mostly older works)

-"""terraformed""" to be *worse* (something something forge world of holy mars)

but frankly that's not even scratching the surface

mars in fiction has many faces, noticeably moreso than the moon or venus

13 and 23?

Oh shit an ask! I have almost 100 ocs but ill answer for my main hs troll, now, without further ado:

13.Do they enjoy poetry?

He does, and he even wrote some once or twice in his worse moments, but its not really his thing, he much more prefers music cause he can dance to it

23.How would they want to die?

Of old age, alone, and in alternia, he would really like to die in his home :(

underrated genre of person: incorrigible transgender for whom sword art online was critically formative media

@approximateknowledge holy shit

[a-total-and-complete-nerd]

Brandon Sanderson: Fantasy vs. Sci-Fi

Almost all of BrandoSando's books straddle the line between the two genres, and after seeing @approximateknowledge's post here, I wondered how they would lay out on that chart. I was also inspired by this fascinating WOB about Skyward's genre. These are just my opinions, so let me know if you agree or what you think you'd change!
