Character asks!

These are more focused on the background stuff rather than the usual "what would the character do in XY situation" kinds of asks. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while and in the end decided to make my own. Feel free to use, go wild, enjoy

What was the original thought that led to the creation of this character?

How long was the process before the character reached its final version? (or a version that would be clearly recognizable as the character?)

What was the first thing you decided on, the character's name, appearance, personality or their role in the story?

And reverse, which one of the four things did you struggle with the most?

How did you choose their name and why? Was it simply based on vibes or is there any specific meaning behind the name? Are the reasons behind their name different in- and out of universe?

What was the thought process behind their appearance? Did you go mostly for the aesthetic or are there other reasons they look the way they do?

What is an aspect of their appearance that you like the most?

What is the origin of their personality? And let's be honest - how much of it is projecting?

How big is their role in the story? Do they make a frequent appearance or are they a character with little "screentime" but big influence? Or are they just a favourite background guy?

What is their main character arc in the story? Where do they start and how do they develop? Do they get a happy ending or is their story a tragic one?

Is there any existing character from other media that your character resembles? Was the resemblance intentional or was it a coincidence?

Do you have a playlist for the character? What songs do you associate with them and why?

Do you have a voice claim for the character? What do you imagine the character sounds like?

Do you have any quotes tied to the character, either from the story itself or from another source that fit them?

Have you ever made a moodboard for them?

Is there any memes or running jokes associated with the character, both in- and out of universe?

Are there any motifs or symbols associated with the character? How are they represented, in their design, personality or in some other way?

Does the character have other characters connected to them? Do you have a family tree and "offscreen" connections made up for them or do they exist in a vacuum purely for the purpose of the story?

What is your general favourite thing about the character? What is your least favourite?

Bonus question: share any additional thoughts, art, favourite scenes, anything you've been waiting for a chance to ramble about

[askfarfromhome]

[askfarfromhome]

well that's 2 outta 3 "futures" told at least...wonder what #3 will be?

(god i wish i had a better explanation for why it took a year and a half to get back to this but frankly if i knew that answer it would solve a lot more than just art problems, wouldn't it?)

i can only promise to try harder and not let life get me down going forward

The Keys to Happiness

Hey folks! I was going to try to do the prompt "Instrument" yesterday but developed a headache that made writing super hard. So it's here today instead! For this prompt I returned to some characters I made for the Far From Home universe, owned and created by @therealbrigeedarocks (with some extra fun over at @askfarfromhome).

The first story with these characters can be found here: Gossip Girl

This one is set sometime early in their time together. If you're unfamiliar with FFH, this is your disclaimer that it deals with the Pet Trope.

~~~

Mindy’s eyes were still puffy from an earlier burst of emotions she couldn’t really help. She stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the bars of her cage and staring across the open space in there with her. She had some basic furniture, things that came with her from the shop, a “human starter kit” they’d called it. A bed, a small sofa, and even a table with a chair were arranged somewhat haphazardly in there. All part of the package in which Mindy had been the central prize.

She thought back to another time, when she’d gone to a carnival with her family. There had been a booth giving out goldfish in little bags. She’d even tried to win one, but her raffle ticket was never called.

She hadn’t seen her home in a few years now. Back home, humans were normal. Here, they were pests, or pets, just little things to be bought up by a carnival and given out as raffle prizes.

What is Cad's personality like in the myths and stories? Does he give off that arrogant vibe? 0.0

[askfarfromhome]

are there stories of mortals criticizing a god and getting away with it? 0.0

i mean...it counts, right?

[askfarfromhome]

What is the general attitude on human/Tergaian romantic relationships? (I feel like it would be the last thought in the minds of anti-human giants XD)

i haven't given an actual romantic relationship any thought cuz as previously stated writing romance/the romance genre ain't exactly my cup of tea

but i have had to give a thought to whether it should or shouldn't be allowed in the future of ffh/tergaia

it would give Humans an equal footing socially but it's also awkward after you know centuries of being considered pests but it should be a free country to love who you love but how do you tell if it is or isn't a relationship made under duress and aaaarrrrrggghhhhhhh god why did i decide to write a story about regaining personhood and shit can't we go back to the woods and pretend politics doesn't exist

[askfarfromhome]

Would you ever write a romantic relationship between a human and a giant in Tergaia? 0.0

considering romance ain't my bag and i'm already terrible at writing it?*

most deffo not

*evidence: everything i've written ever

[askfarfromhome]

Do humans have a longer history than Tergaian's, or is it the other way around? Just thinking of the magic and technology difference. Humans would have different survival skills and such.

i'd say they in the same general century-ish in terms of history: not the same level of tech as Humans but still advanced enough to be considered modern-ish
