Story Recommendations
For your reading pleasure, included below is at least one fic rec for each pairing except the crossovers from non-Marvel fandoms (apologies to Mr. Potter & Mr. Stilinski). Most are gen fic, and even in the ones with a romantic pairing, romance is not the focus.
Tony Stark
As Subtle As Cognitive Recalibration by petroltogo (Teen, 8949) tumblr: @tonystarktogo
Standing inside his penthouse, listening to Rogers, Barton and Banner explain to Fury how they just happened to stumble over the Tesseract on a routine security check of Stark Tower’s roof and wouldn’t you know, they’ve managed to fight off the looming alien invasion before it could really start and secure the missing overpowered nightlight is one of the most surreal situations Tony has ever had the displeasure of experiencing.
Peter Parker
the worst field trip ever by shrill_fangirl_screaming (Teen, 3420) tumblr: @i-am-having-an-emotion
"We're on a field trip," Peter said. "To here. And Tony decided to be our tour guide and absolutely embarrass me, so can you please help get him under control?"
Which is how Peter Parker, architect of his own destruction, ended up with not one but two superhero pseudo-dads being annoying on his school field trip.
Steve Rogers
Do You Remember Being Happy? ('Cause I Sure Don't) by GalaxyThreads (Teen, 11022) tumblr: @galaxythreads
That seems about right. He doesn't know how he knows that, though. He does have vague memories of an annoyed fondness at finding peanut butter in some sort of jam. Thor's doing, because he doesn't see the point of using two knives when one works just as fine. He knows that. How does he know that? He knows all those little details, though, almost innately. How can he know these strangers so deeply?
Everyone else below the cut!
Loki
Proprietary by TheThirdMarauder (Teen, 7639)
No, Loki simply wants the Avengers conquered. The details of whom, how, and when matter not. Unless, of course, said details interfere with Loki's plans. Then, well, then none can fault him for protecting his own interests.
Loki has always been exceptionally good at lying to himself.
Natasha Romanov
What Girls Are Made Of by enigma731 (Teen, 4613) tumblr: @enigma731
She rolls her eyes but does as he’s indicated, using his shoulders to leverage herself up onto his back, her arms around his neck and her legs hugging his waist.
“You know,” he says blithely, “this isn’t really what I tend to picture when I think of a hot girl riding me.”
Natasha groans, deciding that if his sense of humor gets them arrested, she’ll kill him herself. “Just go.”
Clint Barton
Dear Clint Barton (circa age 7) by pollyrepeat (Teen, 4221)
With a normal person, this might count as blackmail material, but a) this is a case of mutually assured destruction if ever there was one, and b) Fury is immune to embarrassment. Not just in the regular, Tony Stark way, either, oh no. Things that could possibly end up being embarrassing to Fury get somehow warped and changed until they go from mortifying all the way over into useful and/or good for his image. It’s like a superpower.
Carrying Clint’s small child self around on his shoulders more than once has probably already hit the interagency rumour mill as an example of Fury’s innate awesomeness: good with rocket launchers and small children.
Also available as a podfic!
Bruce Banner
They're Not Wrong by Trumpeteer34 (Teen, 10163)
As Tony began to pace around the hole in the road to keep himself from shooting repulsors at the nearby buildings in a fit of rage, Thor began to study the nearby area. There was no sign of either the Hulk or Bruce Banner beyond the crater. The surrounding area, aside from the rubble of the fight, held no clue as to their friend’s location.
“Guys, he’s gone,” Tony growled into the communicator on their private line, drawing Thor out of his darkening thoughts. “Someone tranqed him and took him. He’s gone.”
Honorary mention goes to the Responsible Science series by @letteredlettered - the stories don’t have the "Avengers Team & Bruce Banner" tag, but they could, and they are amazing. The best Bruce Banner writing I've ever come across.
Thor
Fortunately, I Am Mighty by onward_came_the_meteors (General, 3062)
Steve was the first one to speak. “Are you okay?”
Thor nodded. Which was a bad idea, as it turned out, because now there were little gray lights flashing in front of his eyes. “I’m fine.” Absolutely everyone narrowed their eyes, and he added, “But, uh. Could we possibly not get back in the car just yet?”
Avengers Team
Civil Wasn't by onward_came_the_meteors (General, 7123)
"We're having an ideological conflict here," Tony stated with disbelief. "Are you telling me you still want to go out to dinner?"
"It's a standing engagement, Tony," Rhodey reminded him.
"Not you too—"
"We already had to reschedule from Friday when Natasha was..." Rhodey frowned. "What were you doing?"
The question was directed toward Natasha, who shrugged and said, "Spy stuff."
James "Bucky" Barnes
You Know How I Feel, aka, The Adventures of Bucky and Muffy the Dinosaur by ifeelbetter (Not Rated, 4511) tumblr: @ifeelbetterer
“As you may have heard, Bucky Barnes, a.k.a. The Winter Soldier, recently rescued a tiny part-robot dinosaur during the Avengers’ battle with Dr. Doom in Antarctica,” the other newscaster explained. “Pictures of Barnes and the dinosaur were posted on twitter by fellow Avenger, Clint Barton, a.k.a. Hawkeye, and immediately made Barnes’s new pet America’s sweetheart.”
“Her name’s Muffy,” said Steve."
Wanda Maximoff
and the woman was young again by Mira_Jade (General, 3669)
Tony Stark called them the Cap's Kooky Quintet, and sometimes the term amused her – causing her to lift a sardonic brow where someday a smile would truly smile. She enjoyed the presence of comrades – true comrades – and she enjoyed the way their minds wove and bound together about each other to fluctuate against her senses as one. There was something soothing about being in their midst, and even when their loud and brash ways – their painful Americaness - rubbed her raw and drained on her, it was ever the knitting of their minds that soothed those moments over, and made them inconsequential.
Phil Coulson
Coulson's First Day of School by storiesfortravellers (Teen, 3055)
Coulson looked up at him. “I like drawing pictures with Mr. Rogers. I like having tea parties with Ms. Potts. I like it when Dr. Banner reads me books, and I like it when Natasha teaches me things. And I like when you play with me. You do really good voices when we play action figures. And you’re the only one who lets me do stuff like jump off the high diving board at the pool or eat three cupcakes or play tackle with kids at the park.”
Clint didn’t realize that. He was pretty sure that meant that he was doing something wrong.
Darcy Lewis
Beginner Yoga for Dummies (Darcys) and Sad Hobos by chailover (Teen, 3434)
Darcy had a theory: crazy attracted crazy, working kind of like gravity. It was pretty much her explanation for her life after Thor. And if she had thought the type of crazy Thor attracted was bad, be it Loki or the Warrior Three and Sif, or the dark elves and the Convergence, it was still nothing against what the Avengers manage en masse.
Matt Murdock
Double Blind by smilebackwards (Teen, 2381) tumblr: @smilebackwards
Stark snaps his fingers. “You can’t see half of my inventions. This explains so much about you and why you’ve never been properly impressed by me.”
“Does it?” Matt says, ambiguously.
Sam Wilson
Bystander by scribblemetimbers (Teen, 52029)
“I just want you to know,” Sam says loudly, cautiously raising his hands, “That I’m very poor and very sleep-deprived and literally the only thing you can kill me for right now are my notes.” He pauses. Wait. On second thought: “Please don’t steal my notes.”
“I’m not—I’m not a mugger,” Not Mugger rasps out, and for all that he looks about to keel over and die, the man actually manages to sound offended.
Nick Fury
Bedtime Story by dixiehellcat (Teen, 2532) tumblr: @deehellcat
Fury snorted. “I have to check in with the duty officer. I’ll be back in, let’s say twenty minutes. I expect all of you to have whatever your pre-bedtime routines are completed, and be in here pajama’ed and ready to be read to.”
He tapped the book under his arm, then left with the usual dramatic swish of his long coat. Bruce scratched his head. “Did…he just say be ready to be read to?”
Pepper Potts
Pepper and the Avengers (Which She Knows Nothing About) by rebelmeg (General, 6696) tumblr: @rebelmeg
The Avengers, that mismatched group of hurt and heroism, was one of the most important things in Tony Stark’s life. So, naturally, Pepper had made them an important part of her life too.
Vision
039. Intoxicated by aimmyarrowshigh (Teen, 100) tumblr: @aimmyarrowshigh
It might be nice to fit in, just this once. To lose a bit of composure.
Vision floated over to the refrigerator and, with some timidity, pulled off a magnet. He stuck it to his forehead.

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT QUESTIONS
long post below the cut
001. When is their birthday?
February 2nd ( or, dependant on the Mal, roughly four or five days after Mal’s birthday )
002. Do they do anything to celebrate their birthday?
Usually, there’s a party. But it used to be that this party was held in competition with Mal’s birthday party, so was vying for guests and needed the most numbers, but now she’s not doing that, she’d settle for a gathering of her closest friends (her crew) and maybe she’ll give herself a whole day off work, if someone can talk her into it.
003. Does your character like coffee better, or tea?
Coffee, it’s all they had on the Isle so she never really got accustomed to tea.
004. Do they prefer being alone or with others?
She prefers to have a crowd around her, people to talk to and show off in front of, but when it comes down to it, she’d always prefer to spend her time with a couple of close friends rather than a huge group.
005. Are they in good health?
Relatively. Uma is a fairly healthy individual, especially once the barrier comes down, because then she has access to her own divine nature and that protects her from most things that would get to a normal human. She is, however, like most Isle kids, somewhat small for her age from the early malnutrition and lack of expose to sunlight. So, better than most.
006. What sense do they most rely on?
Sight is probably the most important, in terms of relying on it to get things done, but touch is something she relies on for comfort especially. and when she’s in her cecaelia form her tentacles are more receptive to touch, as with an octopus. they help her navigate, especially underwater.
007. Is your character an optimist or a pessimist?
Uma is a realist, first and foremost. Or that’s what she’d say, she’s actually pretty optimistic.
008. What is their favorite fairy tale?
Cliche as it is, the original version of the little mermaid, where the mermaid’s feet cause her physical pain and then the prince marries someone else so she throws herself into the sea, still in human form, and turns to sea foam. Yep, that one.
009. Do they believe in happy endings?
No, because there’s no such thing as a happy ending. Endings are sad, that’s how endings work. And if you reach a point where you feel like you’re going to live ‘happily ever after’ you have to remember, there’s always more work to be done and eventually one of you will outlive the other.
010. Do they believe in love at first sight?
Not really. Love has to be allowed to grow. You can’t love someone you don’t know. Because then you’re just in love with the idea of them and all the messy bits underneath are just going to put you off.
011. How would your character court the person of their dreams?
About as subtly as a brick through a window. Uma is never subtle, so she’d likely approach them and ask them out, or maybe she’d try and get some info out of them first about things they like.
012. What makes your character embarrassed?
Being reminded of Mal’s nickname.
013. Have they ever been bullied or teased?
Yes. So much. the Shrimpy nickname stuck. And people clung to the idea that Maleficent was ruler of the Isle and therefore Mal could do no wrong, so if Mal wanted them to ostracise Uma and call her names, then they would, for fear of suffering the same fate.
014. Detail one secret shame your character feels.
She feels ashamed that the whole of the Isle wasn’t always her priority. She always knew she wanted to get her crew off the Isle, but that was as far as her plan went and she’s ashamed of the thought that if she’d gotten the trident and bargained her way off the Isle with her crew at the end of Book 3, she’d have left and not looked back just like the Core 4 did.
015. Are they most likely to fight with their fists or their tongue?
Both. She’ll insult you to take your guard down and then punch you. Insults thrown whilst fighting are just par for the course with Uma.
016. What is their choice of weapon?
Sword. Or, against a magical opponent, magic.
017. When does your character think that violence is justified or deserved?
So much of the time. Way too much of the time. She’s trying to be better, but sometimes her first instinct is still to do something violent to get her point across and make people listen to her.
018. Your character wakes up to find that war has been declared. What do they do?
Gather her people around her, and then probably go out and fight. It would depend on the war and the nature of it. If it’s a landgrab from another kingdom, she might not bother, but if it’s a magical being attacking with intent to destroy the kingdom, she’ll get involved.
019. If they could have a superpower, what would they choose?
She kind of already has superpowers, so if she had to add something on top of what she already has, she’d probably take the ability to control plants so she can make crops grow on the Isle. If she had to lose all her powers and retain just one she would probably choose to retain shapeshifting.
020. What are their hobbies?
What’s a hobby? Uh, no, she enjoys singing, swimming and sailing. They might not necessarily be hobbies, but they’re the closest she gets.
021. How do they display affection?
Touches. Little touches on the arm, a hand in the hair. She likes to touch the people she cares for. Also protectiveness, so standing in front of them, throwing her arm in front of them. Joking around with people, rolling her eyes, punching them lightly in the shoulder.
022. What is the most beautiful thing they’ve ever seen?
The sunlight filtering through the clouds as the disappeared when the barrier was brought down, filling the Isle with light like it had never seen before. or. Harry’s eyes.
023. What do they consider beautiful in others physically?
She considers most people beautiful in their own right. But soft hair and pretty eyes are very nice. A strong jaw.
024. What do they consider ugly in others physically?
This is really hard. Uh, completely bald heads maybe? I honestly don’t know.
025. What do they consider beautiful in others personality-wise?
Loyalty. Fierceness. Freedom of Spirit. Confidence.
026. What do they consider ugly in others personality-wise?
Self-depreciation/Self-hatred. Dishonesty. Bigotry in any form. Bullying.
027. What is their idea of perfect happiness?
she doesn’t know, or isn’t sure what exactly would make her perfectly happy. but she feels happiest surrounded by her crew and out on the water. so probably at the wheel of her ship, with her crew around her, safe in the knowledge that the isle is functioning, is growing, is a safe and happy place to live. that her work is done.
028. What makes them laugh out loud?
she’s actually quite fond of laughing and she never tries to hide her laughter if it’s something funny. so, sarcastic comments, jokes, people doing stupid stuff, people saying stupid stuff, people falling down or getting hurt (but not seriously injured)
029. What sort of sense of humor does your character have?
it’s quite a sarcastic humour, she’ll make lots of sarcastic or sassy comments.
030. Do they believe in the afterlife?
it’s hard not to believe in the afterlife when your great-uncle is literally the lord of the dead. she knows about the underworld and the afterlife and she knows it’s a very real, very literal thing.
031. Are they superstitious about anything?
don’t kill albatrosses. don’t do it. but otherwise, no, not hugely superstitious.
032. Does your character believe in ghosts?
yes.
033. Do they keep their promises?
as a sea witch, she has to keep her promises. a promise is a soul debt. uma takes promises very seriously.
034. What’s their view of lying?
she hates lying. she hates being lied to. she would always prefer the honest truth, even if it hurts. she does, occasionally tell white lies like “i’m fine”, but about anything more important than that, it’s a no-no.
035. What is the most important rule your character lives by?
if you want something, you have to work for it. no-one gets anything for free.
036. How honorable is your character?
fairly honourable. but she isn’t above trying underhanded tricks to get what she wants.
037. If your character saw someone drop a large sum of money and knew that they could probably take it without anyone noticing, what would they do?
probably take it. depending on who’d dropped it. if it was someone she knew, she’d probably return it. but finder’s keepers is the isle way of life.
038. What bad habits do they have?
not sleeping. swearing. speaking with her mouth full. skipping meals accidentally.
039. What do they think is the worst thing that can be done to a person?
damnatio memoriae. completely erasing someone’s existence from the world.
040. What is their obsession?
the isle of the lost and turning it into a liveable place. she is a workaholic.
041. Are they comfortable with technology?
pretty comfortable, but she prefers the old fashioned methods like letter writing and taking notes by hand than using a tablet or laptop.
042. What is their greatest achievement?
the barrier being brought down. while she’s not technically responsible, it was her plan and her actions that helped to change mal’s mind, so she’s taking credit.
043. What will they stand up for?
the little guy. the underdog. she’s a huge proponent for those in need, those less fortunate. she’ll stand up for freedom and fair treatment.
044. What disgusts them?
people in positions of power that use them to improve their own lives instead of helping other people. sexism. racism. classism. homophobia. etc.
045. Does your character have any chronic medical conditions?
mild depression.
046. How do they handle getting sick?
she powers through it, pretending like she isn’t sick at all.
047. What was the last medical problem your character had?
malnutrition as a result of living on a garbage island for years.
048. Do they have any allergies?
not that she knows of
049. How does your character feel about growing old?
the length of her lifespan makes growing old seem like something of a non-issue for her. she’s more concerned about other people growing old around her while she remains relatively unchanged.
050. How does your character feel about their own mortality?
given that she’s almost immortal, it’s not something she has to consider now that she’s free from the influence of the barrier. but she hopes that by the time it comes around, she’s done something worthy of getting into elysium.
051. If they knew they would die tomorrow, what would they do today?
make a list of all the jobs that still need doing and give it to someone she trusts to carry on her work.
052. What is your character’s worst flaw?
her pride and inability to compromise. she’s incredibly stubborn about her plans, possibly to her own detriment. her need to always be in control.
053. What is your character’s greatest strength?
her compassion and her ability to see the world for what it could be instead of what it is.
054. Does your character want power or authority of any kind?
yes. it’s important to her to have power and authority always. it’s why she’s self-titled queen of the isle, it’s why she’s the captain. she struggles with relinquishing control and with trusting other people.
055. Is your character an introvert or an extrovert?
an extrovert.
056. Has your character ever struck someone in anger?
yes. though with time she comes to regret the action, she has definitely lashed out at both friends and enemies in blind anger.
057. Has your character ever killed anyone?
yes.
058. What is your character’s idea of a perfect day?
uma’s idea of a perfect day is a day out at sea with her crew, sailing the world and singing sea shanties and having a good time together away from other authority or people who hate them. just them, free and happy.
059. List several phrases your character is fond of uttering. Where did they pick them up?
what’s my name? is her favourite phrase, use to keep her crew in line, to boost herself up, and to make sure everyone knows who she is and that she’s in charge.

adventure! she wants to see everything and travel the world and go on wild adventures.

068. How strong is your character’s sense of responsibility? What kinds of things trigger it?
very. she feels responsible for a lot. seeing people in need triggers it more than anything, seeing someone hurt or hungry is something she can’t stand.

a lot. she fights for what she wants, she fights for other people, especially those who maybe can’t fight for themselves.
070. What about your character is cowardly?
she doesn’t like getting too involved in her own emotions. especially the good ones and she doesn’t want to lose people, so she distances herself from them to avoid getting hurt.

anti-hero. she’s a hero, but her methods aren’t heroic.

she doesn’t really play games. also she’d be a pretty bad sport at any game she didn’t win, so maybe uma is banned from game nights and doesn’t have a favourite.
075. Is your character ticklish?
not really, thanks to shape-shifting any part of her that was ticklish now isn’t.
076. How do they express anger?
loudly. it takes over her whole body, she goes tense and snappy, she gets loud and shouty, and even though she doesn’t like it and would like to change, she can get physically violent.
077. How often do they cry? Over what?
pretty much never. she tries her hardest not to cry. but she’s more likely to cry over very emotional things rather than pain. so she’s more likely to cry because a loved one got hurt, or because of her own feelings than anything else.

she’d like to think that she’s emotionally stable, but she can actually be quite volatile, she’s just very good at hiding her mood swings.

she’d hope pretty difficult. she does her best not to fall into any of the usual traps, but she still has certain tells, so for someone who knows her, it becomes pretty easy.
081. Is your character religious?
a complex question, because she knows that gods exist as she herself is related to them, so she has to believe in gods, she can’t deny their existence, but she also knows that they’re not the omnipotent, omniscient beings they’re made out to be, they’re flawed and selfish and she gave up on asking for their help.

sleep. any sleep. she actually doesn’t sleep very much, she can stay awake for days at a time and when she does sleep it’s only really in short bursts.

094. Name three things most would not expect your character to be able to know.
economics. the law. how to be good.
095. Name three things most would not expect your character to be able to do.
dance. hold her temper. bench press a car.
096. How do they move and carry themselves? What energy do they project?

097. How well do they adapt to change?
uma is very adaptable. she’s very good at adapting, but that doesn’t mean she always likes it. if it’s a change she’s campaigned for, she’s all for it, but otherwise? she’s going to need serious convincing.
098. Does your character like animals?
yes. especially sea animals.
099. Do they talk to inanimate objects?
other than maybe swearing if she’s bumped into something? probably not.
100. Does your character dream? If so, what do they dream about?

@menxgerie asked all the character development questions
yes, below the cut are 100 character development questions.
001. When is their birthday?
February 2nd ( or, dependant on the Mal, roughly four or five days after Mal’s birthday )
002. Do they do anything to celebrate their birthday?
Usually, there’s a party. But it used to be that this party was held in competition with Mal’s birthday party, so was vying for guests and needed the most numbers, but now she’s not doing that, she’d settle for a gathering of her closest friends (her crew) and maybe she’ll give herself a whole day off work, if someone can talk her into it.
003. Does your character like coffee better, or tea?
Coffee, it’s all they had on the Isle so she never really got accustomed to tea.
004. Do they prefer being alone or with others?
She prefers to have a crowd around her, people to talk to and show off in front of, but when it comes down to it, she’d always prefer to spend her time with a couple of close friends rather than a huge group.
005. Are they in good health?
Relatively. Uma is a fairly healthy individual, especially once the barrier comes down, because then she has access to her own divine nature and that protects her from most things that would get to a normal human. She is, however, like most Isle kids, somewhat small for her age from the early malnutrition and lack of expose to sunlight. So, better than most.
006. What sense do they most rely on?
Sight is probably the most important, in terms of relying on it to get things done, but touch is something she relies on for comfort especially. and when she’s in her cecaelia form her tentacles are more receptive to touch, as with an octopus. they help her navigate, especially underwater.
007. Is your character an optimist or a pessimist?
Uma is a realist, first and foremost. Or that’s what she’d say, she’s actually pretty optimistic.
008. What is their favorite fairy tale?
Cliche as it is, the original version of the little mermaid, where the mermaid’s feet cause her physical pain and then the prince marries someone else so she throws herself into the sea, still in human form, and turns to sea foam. Yep, that one.
009. Do they believe in happy endings?
No, because there’s no such thing as a happy ending. Endings are sad, that’s how endings work. And if you reach a point where you feel like you’re going to live ‘happily ever after’ you have to remember, there’s always more work to be done and eventually one of you will outlive the other.
010. Do they believe in love at first sight?
Not really. Love has to be allowed to grow. You can’t love someone you don’t know. Because then you’re just in love with the idea of them and all the messy bits underneath are just going to put you off.
011. How would your character court the person of their dreams?
About as subtly as a brick through a window. Uma is never subtle, so she’d likely approach them and ask them out, or maybe she’d try and get some info out of them first about things they like.
012. What makes your character embarrassed?
Being reminded of Mal’s nickname.
013. Have they ever been bullied or teased?
Yes. So much. the Shrimpy nickname stuck. And people clung to the idea that Maleficent was ruler of the Isle and therefore Mal could do no wrong, so if Mal wanted them to ostracise Uma and call her names, then they would, for fear of suffering the same fate.
014. Detail one secret shame your character feels.
She feels ashamed that the whole of the Isle wasn’t always her priority. She always knew she wanted to get her crew off the Isle, but that was as far as her plan went and she’s ashamed of the thought that if she’d gotten the trident and bargained her way off the Isle with her crew at the end of Book 3, she’d have left and not looked back just like the Core 4 did.
015. Are they most likely to fight with their fists or their tongue?
Both. She’ll insult you to take your guard down and then punch you. Insults thrown whilst fighting are just par for the course with Uma.
016. What is their choice of weapon?
Sword. Or, against a magical opponent, magic.
017. When does your character think that violence is justified or deserved?
So much of the time. Way too much of the time. She’s trying to be better, but sometimes her first instinct is still to do something violent to get her point across and make people listen to her.
018. Your character wakes up to find that war has been declared. What do they do?
Gather her people around her, and then probably go out and fight. It would depend on the war and the nature of it. If it’s a landgrab from another kingdom, she might not bother, but if it’s a magical being attacking with intent to destroy the kingdom, she’ll get involved.
019. If they could have a superpower, what would they choose?
She kind of already has superpowers, so if she had to add something on top of what she already has, she’d probably take the ability to control plants so she can make crops grow on the Isle. If she had to lose all her powers and retain just one she would probably choose to retain shapeshifting.
020. What are their hobbies?
What’s a hobby? Uh, no, she enjoys singing, swimming and sailing. They might not necessarily be hobbies, but they’re the closest she gets.
021. How do they display affection?
Touches. Little touches on the arm, a hand in the hair. She likes to touch the people she cares for. Also protectiveness, so standing in front of them, throwing her arm in front of them. Joking around with people, rolling her eyes, punching them lightly in the shoulder.
022. What is the most beautiful thing they’ve ever seen?
The sunlight filtering through the clouds as the disappeared when the barrier was brought down, filling the Isle with light like it had never seen before. or. Harry’s eyes.
023. What do they consider beautiful in others physically?
She considers most people beautiful in their own right. But soft hair and pretty eyes are very nice. A strong jaw.
024. What do they consider ugly in others physically?
This is really hard. Uh, completely bald heads maybe? I honestly don’t know.
025. What do they consider beautiful in others personality-wise?
Loyalty. Fierceness. Freedom of Spirit. Confidence.
026. What do they consider ugly in others personality-wise?
Self-depreciation/Self-hatred. Dishonesty. Bigotry in any form. Bullying.
027. What is their idea of perfect happiness?
she doesn’t know, or isn’t sure what exactly would make her perfectly happy. but she feels happiest surrounded by her crew and out on the water. so probably at the wheel of her ship, with her crew around her, safe in the knowledge that the isle is functioning, is growing, is a safe and happy place to live. that her work is done.
028. What makes them laugh out loud?
she’s actually quite fond of laughing and she never tries to hide her laughter if it’s something funny. so, sarcastic comments, jokes, people doing stupid stuff, people saying stupid stuff, people falling down or getting hurt (but not seriously injured)
029. What sort of sense of humor does your character have?
it’s quite a sarcastic humour, she’ll make lots of sarcastic or sassy comments.
030. Do they believe in the afterlife?
it’s hard not to believe in the afterlife when your great-uncle is literally the lord of the dead. she knows about the underworld and the afterlife and she knows it’s a very real, very literal thing.
031. Are they superstitious about anything?
don’t kill albatrosses. don’t do it. but otherwise, no, not hugely superstitious.
032. Does your character believe in ghosts?
yes.
033. Do they keep their promises?
as a sea witch, she has to keep her promises. a promise is a soul debt. uma takes promises very seriously.
034. What’s their view of lying?
she hates lying. she hates being lied to. she would always prefer the honest truth, even if it hurts. she does, occasionally tell white lies like “i’m fine”, but about anything more important than that, it’s a no-no.
035. What is the most important rule your character lives by?
if you want something, you have to work for it. no-one gets anything for free.
036. How honorable is your character?
fairly honourable. but she isn’t above trying underhanded tricks to get what she wants.
037. If your character saw someone drop a large sum of money and knew that they could probably take it without anyone noticing, what would they do?
probably take it. depending on who’d dropped it. if it was someone she knew, she’d probably return it. but finder’s keepers is the isle way of life.
038. What bad habits do they have?
not sleeping. swearing. speaking with her mouth full. skipping meals accidentally.
039. What do they think is the worst thing that can be done to a person?
damnatio memoriae. completely erasing someone’s existence from the world.
040. What is their obsession?
the isle of the lost and turning it into a liveable place. she is a workaholic.
041. Are they comfortable with technology?
pretty comfortable, but she prefers the old fashioned methods like letter writing and taking notes by hand than using a tablet or laptop.
042. What is their greatest achievement?
the barrier being brought down. while she’s not technically responsible, it was her plan and her actions that helped to change mal’s mind, so she’s taking credit.
043. What will they stand up for?
the little guy. the underdog. she’s a huge proponent for those in need, those less fortunate. she’ll stand up for freedom and fair treatment.
044. What disgusts them?
people in positions of power that use them to improve their own lives instead of helping other people. sexism. racism. classism. homophobia. etc.
045. Does your character have any chronic medical conditions?
mild depression.
046. How do they handle getting sick?
she powers through it, pretending like she isn’t sick at all.
047. What was the last medical problem your character had?
malnutrition as a result of living on a garbage island for years.
048. Do they have any allergies?
not that she knows of
049. How does your character feel about growing old?
the length of her lifespan makes growing old seem like something of a non-issue for her. she’s more concerned about other people growing old around her while she remains relatively unchanged.
050. How does your character feel about their own mortality?
given that she’s almost immortal, it’s not something she has to consider now that she’s free from the influence of the barrier. but she hopes that by the time it comes around, she’s done something worthy of getting into elysium.
051. If they knew they would die tomorrow, what would they do today?
make a list of all the jobs that still need doing and give it to someone she trusts to carry on her work.
052. What is your character’s worst flaw?
her pride and inability to compromise. she’s incredibly stubborn about her plans, possibly to her own detriment. her need to always be in control.
053. What is your character’s greatest strength?
her compassion and her ability to see the world for what it could be instead of what it is.
054. Does your character want power or authority of any kind?
yes. it’s important to her to have power and authority always. it’s why she’s self-titled queen of the isle, it’s why she’s the captain. she struggles with relinquishing control and with trusting other people.
055. Is your character an introvert or an extrovert?
an extrovert.
056. Has your character ever struck someone in anger?
yes. though with time she comes to regret the action, she has definitely lashed out at both friends and enemies in blind anger.
057. Has your character ever killed anyone?
yes.
058. What is your character’s idea of a perfect day?
uma’s idea of a perfect day is a day out at sea with her crew, sailing the world and singing sea shanties and having a good time together away from other authority or people who hate them. just them, free and happy.
059. List several phrases your character is fond of uttering. Where did they pick them up?
what’s my name? is her favourite phrase, use to keep her crew in line, to boost herself up, and to make sure everyone knows who she is and that she’s in charge.
( descriptor ) party, table for one (pity, loser, etc). picked up from her time in the shop.
we ride with the tide! her crew’s mantra. a reminder that they will always be moving forwards.
060. What is your character’s attitude toward education and learning?
she enjoys learning, but she finds most educators boring or pointless. she’s much rather teach herself stuff.
but she also wants everyone to receive a good education.
061. Does your character prefer adventure or safety and security?
adventure! she wants to see everything and travel the world and go on wild adventures.
062. What sort of legacy does your character wish to leave behind?
a good one. a big one. she wants to be remembered, but she wants to be remembered for helping people, for doing something good for the world and her people.
063. How well does your character handle difficult people?
it depends on the kind of difficult, but pretty well, usually. she will always assess a situation first, but she’s very good at adapting to whatever is needed from her in the moment.
064. In what ways does your character annoy others?
she’s demanding and controlling. so she annoys people by constantly needs to reassert the fact that she’s in charge, and she’s the most important person in the room.
065. Is your character better at leading or following? Which do they prefer?
leading, always. uma hates following, she can’t stand it.
066. Does your character prefer city life or being out in nature?
being out in nature, specifically, the ocean.
067. Does your character believe in fate or destiny?
she knows that the fates exist, that some parts of your story are prewritten, but she’d like to think she could change it on a whim, that she isn’t tied to anything specific.
068. How strong is your character’s sense of responsibility? What kinds of things trigger it?
very. she feels responsible for a lot. seeing people in need triggers it more than anything, seeing someone hurt or hungry is something she can’t stand.
069. What about your character is heroic?
a lot. she fights for what she wants, she fights for other people, especially those who maybe can’t fight for themselves.
070. What about your character is cowardly?
she doesn’t like getting too involved in her own emotions. especially the good ones and she doesn’t want to lose people, so she distances herself from them to avoid getting hurt.
071. How kind is your character?
fairly kind. she struggles with it sometimes because she’s never been taught kindness, but she’s trying.
072. In a Dungeons & Dragons game, which class would your character be? (wizard, fighter, bard, priest, ranger, etc.)
a druid, but a water druid specifically.
073. In a novel, what plot role would your character fill? (hero, anti-hero, sidekick, villain, etc.)
anti-hero. she’s a hero, but her methods aren’t heroic.
074. What is your character’s favorite game?
she doesn’t really play games. also she’d be a pretty bad sport at any game she didn’t win, so maybe uma is banned from game nights and doesn’t have a favourite.
075. Is your character ticklish?
not really, thanks to shape-shifting any part of her that was ticklish now isn’t.
076. How do they express anger?
loudly. it takes over her whole body, she goes tense and snappy, she gets loud and shouty, and even though she doesn’t like it and would like to change, she can get physically violent.
077. How often do they cry? Over what?
pretty much never. she tries her hardest not to cry. but she’s more likely to cry over very emotional things rather than pain. so she’s more likely to cry because a loved one got hurt, or because of her own feelings than anything else.
078. How emotionally stable is your character?
she’d like to think that she’s emotionally stable, but she can actually be quite volatile, she’s just very good at hiding her mood swings.
079. How easy is it for them to read the emotions of others?
very, ursula spent uma’s entire childhood teaching her about how people convey emotion through their bodies as well as their words and voices. she’s very good at discerning emotions.
080. How easy is it for others to read your character’s emotions?
she’d hope pretty difficult. she does her best not to fall into any of the usual traps, but she still has certain tells, so for someone who knows her, it becomes pretty easy.
081. Is your character religious?
a complex question, because she knows that gods exist as she herself is related to them, so she has to believe in gods, she can’t deny their existence, but she also knows that they’re not the omnipotent, omniscient beings they’re made out to be, they’re flawed and selfish and she gave up on asking for their help.
082. What are your character’s sleeping preferences?
sleep. any sleep. she actually doesn’t sleep very much, she can stay awake for days at a time and when she does sleep it’s only really in short bursts.
083. What is the first thing they say and/or do when they wake up?
check how long she’s been asleep for and what time of day it is, to calculate how long she has before other people are awake, or to see how much time she’s lost.
084. Describe your character in one word.
Hero.
085. Describe your character in three words.
Revolutionary. Stubborn. Ambitious.
086. How would your character describe themself in one word?
Queen.
087. How would your character describe themself in three words?
Queen. Captain. Witch.
088. Is your character quiet or loud?
Loud. So very loud.
089. How vocally expressive is your character?
very. she’s always ready to talk or argue her point. and she’ll always tell you exactly what she thinks.
090. How bodily expressive is your character?
in the middle. most of the time her body language is closed off, but she does like to show off.
091. What type of music does your character like?
she’s not really had much chance to listen to music yet, but female singers are her clear favourite.

loyalty, for the people who are with her. anger, in those that aren’t. fear.

095. Name three things most would not expect your character to be able to do.
dance. hold her temper. bench press a car.

uma is very confident in her movement. she walks with her head up and as if she expects everyone else to move out of her way (she does). she doesn’t make herself smaller or back down. she’s always an intimidating presence.

Best Singles of 2018 but it’s chill this year
This category should speak for itself but I just tacked so many amendments onto the description that it’s like... it just makes no fucking sense anymore. Technically this is a list for any single that was released this year or last year December (since I write these lists in December it’s easier for songs to slip under my radar so I sometimes count them for the next year, like the Grammy’s eh? But then sometimes I let a November 30th release date slide as well... or maybe the single was released earlier but the video would qualify or just... any dumb fucking reason. If you see a song that shouldn’t qualify just trust me to find a loophole so... lezzgo.
Also hey, I guess I’ll just straight up say it then, there’s no best covers, best collaborations OR best pop songs list either, I just kinda threw them all on here. With a good portion of this list being kpop I’d have to make a whole different kpop list too? No sir, no thank you, I’ll just dump it all on here especially since the past few years most of the pop songs list was already featured on the singles list so like... why make the extra effort?

[AN CAFE Interview by Club Zy MAG Vol.039 PART 2]
Translate: Shiro, Staff from Nyappy Forever BR
Thanks for http://www.club-zy.com/
On October 4th will be released the new single of AN CAFE “Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster”. This month the band is currently in halloween, with presentations scheduled for Nagoya, Tokyo and Osaka, the “AN CAFE LIVE CAFE TOUR'17 ‘Antic Halloween Party ~ Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster ~’”. And the clothes rule for these lives is: “Please, come with something related to red.” Please note that in the last presentation of Tokyo, the members will appear wearing the new costumes for this halloween. So, aren’t you anxious like the boys of AN CAFE, for this month’s Halloween events?
Photos by Takehiro Suganuma / Interview by Tomonori Nagasawa.
- In the newest single "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" AN CAFE it isn’t doing cosplay, but something like kote-kote, you came to represent the visual gloss gliter / gloss horror. For the image of the band is this occasion rare?
Miku: In fact, passed this kind of impression on you. It’s a work made for the halloween season, I want to show something that fans are not accustomed to. Makeup and clothes are even more dense.
- As this is for the halloween season, we're waiting.
Miku: Yes, we got it just for halloween. If we let this moment pass, it would be difficult to have another chance, since this time of halloween came as an opportunity.
- About AN CAFE, remember the seasons and events important. How do you make songs for these seasons, like Valentine Day, White Days, Halloween (now), Christmas and etc. If at this moment there was any important fact in the world, as usual for you, what would you do? A live? Would you launch any work?
Miku: The band surprisingly likes this kind of thing. Until a while ago, together with songs of the season and events songs, for my part I thought "the performances of band's activities are out of sync!?" However, enjoy the seasons of the year with the content of the events and go changing makeup and costumes is not so good to do. But that's a fun thing for caffeko.
- I think these activities are wonderful.
Miku: We like to spend these events with fans. We prepare our costumes just for these events and announce the content to match with it as well. During the live we were tense, if it is to make some special feeling born. Because we strongly believe that people are waiting for these meetings, we want to do it by an important way.
- A good posture is to believe strongly (rs)
Miku: Honestly speaking, there are also parts that we depend on fans. In the events of these days, there is nothing we can do ...
Kanon: If we don’t have plans for this day, there's no excuse that works.
Miku: Yes, if we do not have a schedule ready for this day, it will be BAD for my image. But, independent on us, fans want to be fascinated by the event. Even if I'm just a boy, would they stop enjoying that day together?
- Don’t you prefer to have fun like a kid instead of live?
Miku: If An Cafe it isn't priority, so i'm in a bad mood.
- Talking about the fans, on the part of you who can prepare all the plans for this day and they just to attend the event give excuses at work and in schools, it means that they are waiting for fun, this is good? Most of all, you’re waiting there from the stage to see all these people you love.
Miku: If I think by this way, I'm glad for it. About october, if we spend Halloween together, I think it will be the best.
- To color this halloween lively with party music, AN CAFE will release its newest single "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster".
Miku: “アブない(abunai)” it’s to look like a reading of "ア ブ な い 刑事 (abunai deka) * ¹" but since it's an old program, would people understand?
* ¹ Abunai Deka, popularly known as AbuDeka, is a Japanese drama shown by Nippon Television between 1986 and 1987.
- Oh, it really does.
Miku: At the time of creating, the word "Ikenai mousou" came in my mind, I already had the "Abunai monster" written, so I just put everything together. Then I thought, "in this way, it seemed like 'Abunai deka." Oh! I will leave it in this way, but the current generation would not understand the origin of the word "Abunai deka".
- About the difference of the current generation, could they not realize?" Even with the coupling of "Tentekomai" talking about the difference of generation?
Miku: About the birth of Showa and Heisei * ¹ Era. Using these expressions caused a huge conflict.
* ¹The Showa Era precedes the current Era, called Heisei, which began when Emperor Akihito ascended the throne on January 8, 1989.
- How so?
Miku: Actually because of Showa Era. I think that now if I write about it, I would feel old for a moment. But, I also think, "to express myself in this way is to be myself" rather than "because I was born in the Showa Era, I will try to change that."
- When people are thirty, would not they have that kind of conscience?
Miku: If I was born in the Heisei Era, it would be disrespectful to the Showa Era (rs). Is that the lyrics of the song "Tentekomai" talk about in somewhere you are being hard on yourself.
‘Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster"may be just a number of halloween, but it's more than that, including song lyrics in the party song has become the most fun song of the year, especially because of aggressiveness of the lyrics of song, it is precisely an EDRM.
- Talking again about "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" about the protagonist who appears in the music, at dawn strips his underwear and throws away, alone can make scandals, like prank, get stuck in his own illusions, this does not would it be hallucinating?
Miku: "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" was to write a pop of how a person in bad shape can have fun alone.
- But, lingerie is not expected of a man...
Miku: Oh! To describe this part I put "bright lingeries" (rs). I wanted to put in the lyrics of song a bit of the image of how a stalker people think. And this is how "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" was born.
- As for you Kanon, what was the image you had of "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster"?
Kanon: Personally I was interest in doing an EDM (Electro Dance Music) alone. However I thought "We are a band, do that would be wrong" so Miku brought the demo of song "oh! it is not that in this song has the element EDRM (Electro Dance Rock Music) ". When I heard the music more organized I thought "what we did was EDM".
Miku: Ohh!!
Kanon: No doubt we're doing the first EDM.
Teruki: I do not know, I think there are already people who do this kind of thing (rs).
Kanon: "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" may be just a number of halloween, but it's more than that, including song lyrics in the party song has become the most fun song of the year, especially because of aggressiveness of the lyrics of song, it is precisely an EDRM.
Miku: Ohh! Suddenly I ended up creating.
- How about Teruki, what impression did you have?
Teruki: Actually, everyone was bringing Halloween songs to the music screening meeting. The song that Miku brought had the image of the halloween that would complete the live, "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster" was the best choice to make. What I soon liked was how Miku sang rap. The rhythm was not slow, but I easily imagined the music in many lives the image that could pass. I thought this might be the image of the next An Cafe.
- At the beginning, everyone are singing together and at the end you can hear a high demonic chuckle.
Miku: The final laugh is mine, but it was supposed to look like 6 monsters.
- Yuuki you too, please tell us what you think of "Ikenai mousou x Abunai monster".
Yuuki: I grabbed the idea of song and incredibly had fun with it, but as it was a number of halloween there were scary things that were put on. We could not get the picture of halloween, so put the content of hallucinatory who walks out was creative and we could build it from that point.
- Do you usually use too much your imagination (Yuuki)?
Yuuki: Me? Well ... (continues in the next part)
