It seems I must apologize for the silence. I've already written up all of my responses and pitched my ideas, yet it seems my artsy admin has been flip-flopping between the excuses of having a so-called "skill issue" or having art block. Hmph. So be it, then. Please rest assured I am looking forward to responding to all of you, my dear Hibikisiennes.

Admin Note

Don't worry if you sent an ask a while ago and it hasn't been answered. I'm answering them in a random order according to which ones I already have ideas for what to respond vs. which ones will require more thinking. All asks will be answered eventually.

Q: What is Hibiki's favorite anime, show, or movie?

A: "I'm something of a Knight of Persailles fan. I suppose I can relate somewhat to the character I play in the movie. Though our circumstances are quite different, of course."

Thank you for the ask, dear follower. I hope this provides a little more insight into me. If you would like to ask more questions, I am always open for more fan mail.

This was sent via my ask box on Retrospring. Those of you unable to reach me via this blog are encouraged to send fan mail via Retrospring instead. https://retrospring.net/@ShikyouinHibiki

//She's a little off-model this time. Whoopsies! Sorry, Hibiki!

Test question: What are your fav songs to perform?

I am also quite partial to Usotsuki wa TOMORROW no Hajimari... However, if I were to list all of my favorites, I'd simply be listing off all of my songs, so I narrowed it down to just these two. Of course, if you'd like to hear more, I would be quite pleased to continue talking.

Thank you for your fan mail. I hope to hear from you again, dear fan of mine.

//Thanks for the test ask, oomf! I had fun drawing Hibiki's response!

//*while SMC-Subs has "junshin ranbu" as "pristine rhapsody", I opted for the more literal translation for the sake of being cheeky.

//Edit: I realized I missed a letter in *junshin* fml.

OOC// I know this blog has been radio silent since launch, but I'm working on drawing responses to the asks I've received so far! They're coming, uh, soon(TM).

Hibiki Ask-blog Rules & Regulations

It has been brought our attention that users without a Tumblr account are unable to send asks. If you are one such person, then you'll be delighted to know Master Hibiki has a Retrospring as well.

Now, without further ado:

Good afternoon, everyone. Andou speaking. I know everyone is very excited for the opportunity to speak with Master Hibiki. Admin will try to respond with an artwork depicting Master Hibiki’s answer. However, we cannot guarantee admin will always reply with an art, so some replies may be text-only. Before you send any fanmail, there some rules of which I must inform you. Master Hibiki, alongside the admin of this account, have outlined the following:

[OOC] Permissions list for OOC (out of character) activity.

Backtagging: Unsure. Likely not applicable here. Threadhopping: Again, unsure. Likely not applicable. Fourthwalling: No. Offensive subjects: Any form of LGBTQIA+phobia, racism, hatred, bigotry, etc.. ERP/anything sexual or gross in nature is also forbidden. We thank you for understanding.

[IC] This is the permissions list for IC (in-character) activity.

Hugging this character: You can try (platonically), but she’ll probably avoid it. Kissing this character : No. Flirting with this character: No. Since Master Hibiki is unable to verify the ages of anyone who sends her fanmail, she does not wish to receive flirtations at the time. This may change in the future. Fighting with this character: Master Hibiki thinks that could be interesting. Injuring this character: Clear it with admin first. Nothing permanent or irreparable. Killing this character: No. Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Yes. But tell admin that's what you're going to do so Master Hibiki can be thinking of something interesting!

Warnings: Sometimes, Master Hibiki can be a bit, ah, how should I put this… Master Hibiki can be rather direct and harsh with her words. Please pay no mind to her tone, and if you’re worried about her being harsh, please mention so. I will speak to her and ask that she chooses her words a bit more carefully. Furthermore, she is very sensitive to cutesy speech patterns, catchphrases, “gobi”, or sentence-enders/suffixes. If you are unaware of what those are (Master Hibiki envies you), allow me to explain. Sentence-enders are nonsense words that many idols (ooc: Japanese characters, in particular) attach to end of their sentences, but aren’t real sentence ending particles.

Additional information: Master Hibiki has stated she is okay with any pronouns and "cares not" for how her gender is perceived. //Hibiki is stated by the PriPara producer, yoda-p, to be neither a man, nor a woman. So for all purposes and consideration, our Hibiki will be non-binary. Characters within the show have no knowledge of this, so as far as they know, Hibiki is a girl. Hibiki won't care what you perceive her as. She revels in being able to deceive and fool others.

Master Hibiki has stated that she doesn’t do “ships”. Similarly, please refrain from asking Master Hibik or admin any questions of a romantic or sexual nature. Thank you for respecting he privacy. In addition to sending fan mail to Master Hibiki, fans may also send fanmail to other Tricolore members and our mascots, including myself, Andou Rei. Master Hibiki’s terms may be updated at any given point, and if they are, fans will be able to see the new terms pinned on the front page of her profile.
