[pan-fried-autism]

Concept art for Corvalie! She’s the goddess of crows, and Almorte’s daughter. Nobody knows who her other parent is or if she even has one, but to most people (especially any immortals older than her), it’s definitely probably Avo, god of birds.

She’s a hunter, and mostly gets her own food, preferably smaller animals. Sometimes she eats bugs. She also has that giant mouth Almorte has.

[bi-leth-eisner]

10, 35, 41 for the fe asks 💖💖

10: what’s your favourite combat class?

i really, really like Falcon Knight. an 8 movement flying class with lancefaire, canto, and avo +10. bonkers speed boost and good res boost, too. if I ever decide to continue past chapter 3 playing as f!Byleth, i’m definitely keeping her in that class

35: what characters would you like to switch pre-timeskip designs?

anyone switching with Annette. Annette’s pre-timeskip look is peak design. someone else deserves to look that cute

41: what’s your favourite character headcanon?

@onyxedskies has a headcanon that healers draw their powers from something. their source of magic varies; Linhardt draws his from his studies, Mercedes draws hers from her faith to the goddess, Flayn draws hers from friendship, and Marianne draws hers from nature. there are downsides to these, though: the more Linhardt studies, the less strength and energy he has from lack of sleep. the more faithful Mercedes gets, the less she starts to focus of her friends and herself. the closer Flayn gets to someone, the harder is it when she loses them. but Marianne... instead, the more power she uses, flowers start to grow around her. so this post:

now hits a little harder

Persephone in the Real World

OMG, guys, you won't believe what I found out about Persephone! 😲 Like, you know she's the queen of the underworld and all, but did you ever wonder what she'd be like if she were living it up in modern times? 🌆📱 Well, here's a little peek into a day in the life of Persephone in our 21st-century world. Spoiler alert: She's a total boss, even outside the underworld! 🔥👑

Day 1: #OOTD in the Underworld So, Persephone starts her day by scrolling through her Instagram feed for some fashion inspo. She's like, "I need a killer #OOTD for today!" 👗🕶️ But instead of a closet full of designer clothes, she's got an enchanted wardrobe that serves up outfits on demand. She steps out of the underworld looking like a fashion icon, ready to slay Hades' heart and the mortal realm at the same time. 💁‍♀️💅

Day 2: Brunch with Demeter Persephone's like, "Gotta keep mama happy!" 🍳🥑 She FaceTimes Demeter while whipping up some avocado toast (cause even goddesses need their avo fix). They chat about life and crop rotation because, you know, Demeter's all about that agriculture. It's a chill mother-daughter brunch, complete with Greek yogurt and pomegranate seeds for dessert. 🍇🍨

Day 3: Hades' Surprise Date Night Hades is like, "Babe, I'm planning a surprise date night!" 🌹 Persephone's intrigued because he's got a flair for the dramatic. She gets dressed up in her hottest outfit (I mean, it's the queen of the underworld, so duh). Hades whisks her off to an exclusive, underground speakeasy. 🍸🕺 They sip on ambrosia cocktails and dance the night away while being serenaded by the souls of the dearly departed. #DateGoals 💑🌌

Day 4: Instagram Takeover Persephone's feeling extra today and decides to do an Instagram takeover. She takes us on a tour of the underworld, showing off all the cool stuff like the River Styx and Cerberus the three-headed dog. 😎📸 The ghosts of ancient heroes follow her, leaving heart-eye emojis on her posts. They're her OG fans. 👻❤️

Day 5: Self-Care Sunday Even queens of the underworld need some self-care. Persephone runs a bubble bath with pomegranate-scented bath bombs 🛁🍑, throws on a face mask, and binge-watches Netflix (yes, she has a secret Wi-Fi connection down there). She texts Aphrodite for some beauty tips, and they swap skincare routines. 🧖‍♀️💄

Day 6: Goddess Pilates Class Persephone is all about that goddess fitness life. She hits up a Pilates class with Athena and Artemis. 🧘‍♀️💪 Hades got her a personalized yoga mat with pomegranates on it. Afterward, they sip on green smoothies and gossip about other gods' drama. 🍏🗣️

Day 7: Reigning Over the Underworld It's back to business. Persephone rules the underworld with an iron fist (but like, a stylish iron fist). She checks in on the souls, reviews the latest fashion trends in Tartarus, and has a meeting with Hades about their upcoming Halloween party. 🎃👻 She's the boss lady of the underworld and Instagram's original #GirlBoss. 💼👠

So, there you have it, a week in the life of Persephone, goddess of the underworld turned modern-day influencer. Who knew ruling the dead could be so chic? 🌟 Stay tuned for more divine updates from this sassy queen! 👑✨

FE3H DimiMari Playthrough - Maddening ch. 13-15: Thank The Goddess Dimitri Is So OP

Welcome to my DimiMari playthrough--my first Maddening playthrough with the extra difficulty of no NG+ and only being allowed to use Holy Knights Dimitri and Marianne!

Today, we look at how chapters 13 to 15 went beneath the cut.

Chapter 13:

We are finally post time skip! I wanna cheer, but then again I know that I am about to head into one of the most brutal maps in the entire game:

Dimitri will be stuck in his High Lord class for this, which means less movement for him.

His 1/3 health pre skip battalion will have been replaced with a full health King of Lions Corps (admittedly a good battalion, but half-useless until it gets to 1/3 Health).

Marianne will not be on this map, so Dimitri will have to solo.

The other Blue Lions + Gilbert will appear in 3 places on the map after a few turns and 2 of those 3 places are not safe from the enemy.

While I got all my Lions onto pegasuses/wyverns specifically for this map, none of them would be able to take two hits, even if I were to allow for a rule break here.

Gilbert starts out as a fucking Fortress Knight with 4 MOV. He was made of paper in chapter 5, so this is just an all around horrible prospect.

As I start the map, I try to stick somewhat to the right side (south), where Mercedes and Annette will appear, to lure enemies away from them. This works out well for the girls, but not so much for Ashe and Gilbert, who soon face a true horde of Thieves, so a reset is needed. Ashe can get away just fine, but Gilbert and his 4 MOV? Ugghhhh... On the bright side, putting Swordbreaker on Dimitri before chapter 12 was the best move ever, because this has reduced the hit chance of most enemies in this map to 7% whenever he hides in a forest. I reload and decide to go north this time. Unfortunately, Dimitri can't double the thieves, so his progress north frequently is impeded by thieves with 5 HP or so left. After two more resets and a lot of divine pulsing, I finally manage to clear out the initial glut of enemies, camping out in this section of forest:

It still took a lot of careful maneuvering of my benchers--especially Mercedes and Annette who needed to get over to the north to be safe, but eventually I clear out the enemies and make my way east with Dimitri, to start luring the enemies near the chests. I am now glad that I still have Vulneraries leftover in my convoy, because that way Dimitri can keep his health at 100% for his personal avo ability, while not wasting Concoctions or--goddess forbid--Elixirs on chip damage from gambits. I clear the path to Felix, Sylvain and Ingrid, then slowly work my way back around to the west and south. I am taking the long way here, because this will allow Dimitri to stay in the cover of the trees while approaching the enemies.

Once I have defeated all the mooks, I use Byleth to open the doors around Pallardo (opening chests and doors is fine for benchers, by the rules of this playthrough), then get her out of dodge so Dimitri can body the last few enemies. After 39 nerve-wracking turns, the nightmare that is Hunting By Daybreak is finally over, though I fear the nightmare that is Maddening post time skip has only just begun.

The real MVP here was Dimitri’s Swordbreaker ability--without that thing he would have been toast.

Chapter 14:

I start this month by having tea on Ingrid's birthday, buying the limited Elixirs and Master Seals, and hiring the Royal Guard Battalion (it has good extra crit damage and a two-uses gambit with wide range, which is good for Dimitri). I repair Dimitri's weapons, and trade his Swordbreaker for Movement +1 again, then go exploring. I put everyone back into their summer outfits, then hand out whatever lost items/gifts I still have, since everyone starts with half-full motivation.

There are a bunch of quests to pick up, including Gilbert's Supply Run quest, which will hopefully never ask for Arcane Crystals because I, uh, kind of spent all of those on Marianne's Levin Swords. Now that I am done recruiting and can focus my exploration time solely on having meals with intended pairs, I also have the time to do tea parties, to raise charm twice per month, so from here on out, every month I will make sure to buy an extra 2 Lavender Blends (for Marianne) and starting chapter 18 an extra 2 Chamomiles (for Dimitri). Once I am done with my rounds, I have two teas with Marianne, then do the tournament 8 times for the money. For training, I focus mostly on "students" who still have paralogues post time skip and do not yet have ranks for a flying class (or riding, in Linhardt's case). I also use the group tasks to help me form supports between intended pairs (e.g. Caspar & Catherine on Skywatch).

In week 2, I certify Bernadetta and Petra into Pegasus Knight, as well as Marianne into Holy Knight. No more reclassing into Priest for maps where I could use a healer. I am choosing to battle here. That said, there are 8 months for battle post time skip and only 9 paralogues to complete, so this will thankfully be less stressful than before. Since I need every bit of XP and every level up I can get in Maddening, I will no longer be using auxiliary battles to level benchers (unless somebody manages to reach master class worthy skill levels in the class room, in which case... kudos, I'll give them the Experience Gem and an adjutant role). Mostly though I will be using Dimitri with Marianne as an adjutant. While she has better AVO thanks to Alert Stance+ and Sword Avo +20, the only weapon she can reliably do good damage with on enemy phase right now are either Levin Swords (of which I only have around 40 uses left) and Wo Daos +, which are expensive to repair, while Dimitri can reliably kill using cheap Iron Lances+.

For the first battle this week, I decide to do the three battle quests I picked up. I make sure to give Marianne a Knowledge Gem, so she can master Archer. For the second one, Dimitri and Marianne swap places, so he can do the same. With that, they both achieve their final ability kits:

Dimitri: Lance Prowess Lv 5, Hit +20, Movement +1, Battalion Wrath, Battalion Vantage

Marianne: Sword Prowess Lv 5, Hit +20, Movement +1, Alert Stance+, Sword Avo +20

I'm sure I'll miss SPD +2 in the beginning, but that's why I'm planting Pale Blue Flowers. Also, considering how important the breaker abilities are in Maddening, the extra HIT is sorely needed. Thankfully, Holy Knight "only" has a -5% SPD growth penalty, so Dimitri and Marianne will still have a 45% and 35% SPD growth rate. I might still switch an ability or two around depending on the situation (e.g. once I get Alert Stance on Dimitri, he can use that instead of Movement +1 during auxiliary battles), but this will be the default from now on.

For the third battle, I use Cyril as an experience-gemmed adjutant, since he is the only student who still needs to do his paralogue and does not yet meet his level requirement to get on a wyvern/pegasus.

In week 3, I certify Annette into Dark Flier for the movement increase (she still has her paralogue to do), Linhardt into Cavalier, and Cyril into Wyvern Rider. I also forge two Wo Daos+, which might replace Killing Edge+ as Marianne's default weapon whenever she does not need range and until I can buy Arcane Crystals (they are expensive to maintain though). I explore again, since there is a meal event going on, which will allow me to double support points for my pairs. I soon realize that trying to get all pairs to their final support using meals may not work out, if I want to keep on planting pale blue flower seeds, because I have already run out of certain ingredients and only about half my pairs are at B. I do some digging and learn that adjutants of adjacent fighters apparently also gain support with each other, so I decide to change my game plan at least for a little while:

I will still do the double reward auxiliary battles, because they give double money AND stat boosters, but I will deploy both Marianne and Dimitri next to each other.

Each will get one part of the pair as an adjutant (e.g. Marianne with adjutant Sylvain and Dimitri with adjutant Ingrid).

Since my rules for this run only specify Holy Knight for story maps and paralogues, I will use the Assassin class for both of them in the auxiliaries, since it has good growth rates (HP, DEX and SPD +20%, no penalties). This means Dimitri will have to get to sword rank B, but thankfully swords are something he's got boons in and with the help of a Knowledge Gem I can get that done in one week, easy.

With this new game plan, I head into week 4. I certify Caspar and Ferdinand into Wyvern Rider, then jump into the auxiliary battles. In an amazing display of love even in the darkest of times, Holy Knight Dimitri ends up adjutant-healing Marianne something like 5 times in a row at one point. After the second battle, he has his B in swords, so I use the third battle to let him level some brawling for Healing Focus.

After some cutscenes that become a lot less dramatic with Dimitri in his summer outfit, I proceed to the story map for this month: Protecting Garreg Mach. During preparations, I realize that I forgot to whittle down the Fraldarius battalion again, so I decide I may as well use this opportunity to get it into the red. Should this not work out, Dimitri will have to make do with the Mockinbird Thieves. I start this battle by putting Marianne on the east side of the map so she can prevent the Pegasus Knight there from taking the conquest zone, and parking Dimitri on the middle tile of the western conquest zone to let him to the same. There are a lot of enemies to weather here (including pesky reinforcements) and the Pegasus/Falcon Knights in particular can double me, which is... not good, and in fact leads me to having to reload, so I can give Dimitri a 1/3 health battalion for Battalion Vantage/Wrath. Thankfully, there aren't too many battalion users on this map and the two Falcon Knights in southeast will not advance until you get near the fire spawn point. The most annoying thing on this map is honestly the battalion-carrying Paladin that keeps on spawning on Maddening, so I do my best to get the ally to the fire trap to stop those. This sadly fails, so I can only hope that my team will be alright until the end of this map.

Unfortunately, I run out of divine pulse uses shortly before clearing out the last of the enemies surrounding Randolph. One failed Battalion Wrath/Vantage Crit later, I restart again. And again. And again. And again. I thought the Battle of the Eagle and Lion was frustrating on Maddening, but goddamn this chapter and its battalion-carrying Paladins that spawn EVERY. OTHER. TURN. Not to mention, almost everything in this map has Swordbreaker, so Marianne and her amazing sword AVO kit are fairly useles here. I cannot move her anywhere without getting her bodied by Pegasus Knights or the Paladins, yet I NEED her to take care of at least some of the latter, or else Dimitri will lose his battalion and with it the only way to counter the Pegasus Knight spam.

I decide to restart and switch out Marianne’s kit. Specifically, I am trading Hit +20, Sword Lv 5 and Sword Avo +20 for Darting Blow, DEX +4 and Lance Prowess Lv 2, and give her a Killer Lance+ and a Horseslayer+ in addition to her Levin Sword. I also give her Frozen Lance and Knightkneeler. This unfortunately also fails, and so I decide to take a break from the game, because this isn't even challenging anymore--it's just plain frustrating. I haven’t been this close to abandoning this playthrough since the shit show that was the Battle of the Eagle and Lion.

Eventually, I get a run where things work out pretty well--Dimitri even gets a Warrior with a Nosferatu crit, of all things. Giving him the Brave Lance dropped by one of the paladins was the best decision ever, and so--after lots of tears and shouting and with 0 divine pulse uses left--I finally manage to beat this map. But seriously, fuck Garreg Mach. The only sliver of fun in this entire experience is watching Dimitri threaten torture and death on people while dressed for a summer picnic:

Chapter 15:

After the excruciating mess that was the last map, I repair all my weapons, then go exploring. As is traditon for my Azure Moon playthroughs, Gilbert gives me a supply run quest that I cannot complete (I don't have any more chickpeas, much less noa fruits). I will leave this one sitting until the last chapter, then do some strategic gardening, so I don't risk getting more of these dud quests. I have my two tea times with Marianne to increase her charm stat and buy all the stat boosters from Anna's shop, then have dinner with as many of my intended pairs as I can get covered by the Hunting Festival event, as well as Gilbert (for the support) and Marianne (for the motivation). Since I cannot use Dimitri for the tournaments at this point, and I do not feel comfortable sending Marianne into an advanced lance tournament, I decide to cook some Swift Fish Gratin with Marianne for the SPD boost (honestly, the first time in 10 walkthroughs that I found any use for cooking) and do some faculty training instead.

In week 2, I certify Gilbert into Wyvern Rider and decide to do 3 auxiliary battles with intended pairs as adjutants. I do theoretically have 5 paralogues ready to do, but I want to wait with those until I can buy Arcane Crystals and forge Marianne's Levin Swords into Levin Swords+. Unfortunately, this adjutant experiment does not work out as intended--I had Alois and Mercedes as my two adjutants and made sure to keep Dimitri and Marianne next to each other at all times for all 3 battles, yet I did not gain a single support level between them, even though they both managed to get C support with Dimitri after only one adjutant session each. I know that B support requires more points than C, but it still should have been enough. At this rate, I stand to gain much more from having Dimitri solo these battles with Marianne as his Experience-Gemmed adjutant.

Since this is not working as intended, I reload my "New Chapter" save, redo the first explore day to make sure I share meals instead of taking training (I still have plenty of fish and there'll be another "Fistful of Fish" event in chapter 16). Sharing meals that are not part of the ongoing meal event won't give as big a boost as the ones that are, but I'll take it. As a nice side effect, this reset also gives me a Supply Run quest that I can actually compelete. Once I get to battling, I give adjutant Marianne a bow and the Experience Gem, so she can catch up to Dimitri XP wise and get closer to B rank in bows, which will allow her to have a ranged option outside of the Levin Sword, thanks to the Magic Bow I got in the last map. This works out beautifully and she reaches B in bows just before the end of the third battle.

In week 3, I choose to explore again, to make use of the meal event and cook and have tea with Marianne, which I forgot to do in my reset of week 1. I have tea with Lysithea, then move on to this month's mission in Ailell.

This map, is one of the few where Holy Knight actually comes in handy--while the horses are still slowed down by certain terrain tiles, at least I don't risk burning. Also, there are quite a few high DEF/low RES enemies on this map, so having access to spells will be useful. I already know from my Normal/Hard playthroughs that this map cannot be routed, because not only are there infinite reinforcements, but also Gwendal will eventually head for Rodrigue. Considering that Rodrigue didn't even survive three Brigands in Felix's paralogue, I don't even want to know how easily he dies here in Maddening. Thus, my goals become as follows:

Take Dimitri and Byleth west, then north, so she can get the chest near Gwendal and then head over to where Rodrigue will appear and get the Sword of Moralta from him.

Hopefully let Dimitri whittle down his Fraldarius battalion in doing so--if this does not work out, I'll have to save that for next month's auxiliary battles.

Send Marianne up north to clear out the enemies there, so Byleth can grab the eastern chest without issues.

I quickly realize that this won't work as intended, because not only can reinforcements act during the same turn in which they appear in Maddening, making it so much harder to keep Byleth out of trouble, but also another 3 enemies appear near Rodrigue. I restart and decide to change my approach a little: Dimitri will get a chest key, so he can get that northwestern chest himself and he also gets an antitoxin, because some of the enemies here have Venim weapons. Byleth will go up the right, get the chest, talk to Rodrigue, and then Dimitri will end the battle by killing Gwendal ASAP. Unfortunately, this time Gwendal decides to head east much sooner than before, so I get to cross my fingers for two turns as Rodrigue dodges and gambits, while Marianne moves in for the kill on Gwendal. Also, shoutout to this allied soldier who went out with a bang by facing a Paladin with only 1 HP left and critting hm into oblivion:

He died on the next turn, but that 1 HP crit was beautiful to behold. Eventually, Marianne gets Gwendal with a Levin Sword double hit, saving Rodrigue’s paper ass from a painful death by reinforcements.

Some headcanons of the Team Squad,

-Gary figured out he was bi during his teenage years but was deep in the closet and a bit afraid of what people would though of him (but fully embrace it when he met both Quinn and Avo)

-He is one heck of a sweet tooth person

-Tends to chew on his nails when stressed out, probably has a few bite marks on them...

-...until Quinn helped him get out of that habit by talking to him and also getting him a few stim toys for him (I see Quinn also having some of her own since)

-Speaking of her, she is a goddess at makeup, like a fricken guru (I bet she has done Tribore's make up in multiple ocassions)

-We may not see about her family, but I like to think that she had a decent relation with her dad

-The whole thing of Avocato keeping plants its mainly because he used to like them as kid but was bullied for it (as it was seen as "weak"), until he grew older and picked up said hobby again

-He used to live with his mom before joining to war, his dad was an abusive piece of sh!t towards both of them

-Thats why he tries to be a better father to Little Cato (even though he is not his bio son, but still he tries TwT)

-He is good at flirting with people but a turns into a nervous wreck when the roles are reversed

-Speaking of Little Cato, I see him starting to write on a journal/dairy (he probably doesn't fully understand the concept of being a personal thing, since he probably tells any of his dads anyways about what he wrote in it)

-I see him also being autistic

-Both Catos are more into salty foods, they've tried sweet foods (for the sake of making Gary happy) thou and they kinda liked them

Thats all I have for now ^^

LIII

you walked up to him, snow layerd on the brim of your hat, little flakes all caught up in your hair

he outstretched his arms and brought you into a hug, digging his chin into your hat

you wrapped your arms around his torso and mumbled a

“hiiiiii”

“hello to you too”

you pulled away just to hang up your hat and coat on the rack

you had been wearing the same brown bakers boy cap since you moved to dc

there was snow damage, the original button had fallen off and it was replaced by one of a different color, at one point avo decided that it was a fun scratching post

“y/n youve got to get a new hat”

“why? this ones perfectly fine”

“it’s obviously not”

you huffed and sat on his couch, his cat immediately coming to keep you company

“well, it’s near impossible to find hats that fit my bulbous head”

“your head is not ‘bulbous’ y/n”

“but it is spencer! i had to sew an attachment to make my lab goggles fit better”

he laughed

“im sure finding a new hat is not an impossible task”

you rolled your eyes and continued to play with his cat

—-

giving spenxer your key had its events as well

hed stop by at the most ungodly times, due to work

how often would he arrive at 4 am and crawl up next to you and hope you didnr wake up

one of these nights you were actualky awake at 4 am, finishing up a paper

he unlocked the door and you froze, thinking that you were abour to get murdered, frantically trying to remeber everything spencer taught you about serial killers

it was just spencer thankfully

“hey what are you doing up”

“writing, i hated writing essays in highschool, i was so excited to pursue a higher education where it would be all science and math and no english, but low and behold here i am writing papers about enthalapy”

“well soon enough you’ll actually never have to write a paper, you’ll just have to grade them”

as you gave him a look he slid you a small colorful box

“from penelope”

you smiled, she was always so sweet to you

you opened it up to find a brown bakers boy cap, brand new and nearly identical to the one yoy had

the note said

“techy goddess to the rescue! spenxer told me about your dreary little hat and i knew i had to help, i hope you love it”

you immediately pulled our your phone to send a thank you text

“try it on!” spenxer urged

you put it on your head, it fit like a glove

“how do i look?”

“perfect, as usual”

you blushed and hung it up on the rack, you shut your computer and did a little run up to spencer

wrapping your arms around his torso, him resting his chin on the top of your head, and he took a big inhale in

“i love when you use that shampoo”

“pharamones! did you know that they play a big part in attraction- oh who am i kidding you do know”

he chuckled softly and rubbed his hand up and down your back

“i do, but continue on”

you talked a little more about pharamones hoping to tell him something that he didn’t know, but of course your attempt with fruitless

“but yeah! cool right?”

“very, are you tired?”

you peaked at your watch

4:23 am

“well actualky no, i had a couple espresso shots at 11 so i could grind on this paper”

“a couple?”

“a few.”

he laughed at you and your coffee addiction

“do you want to eat cereal with me? i’m kinda hungry”

you nodded as he poured two bowls of cereal that you two started to eat

“cereal at 4 am” he said

“and new hats!”

“we have the most perfect life dont we”

“indeed we do spencer, indeed we do”

51. current stresses? My cat has been throwing up and having diarrhoea the past week or so, she’s been to the vet, it got better for a bit, but tonight suddenly got worse. Living with my parents who I have a very toxic relationship with. Living in a single very overfilled room. Trying to not spend money so that I can save up to move next year. Nightmares about my trauma. Either the house is haunted or there’s a build up of negative energy (probably that).

52. favorite font? I always liked the look of all of the script style fonts (freestyle, french, lucida, lucida calligraphy, Edwardian, Palace) but they’re not accessible so for anything people will actually see (which is literally nothing) I always go with arial.

53. what is the current state of your hands? Slight rash on one finger because I’m sensitive to what is in a lot of hand washing products apparently (never an issue until the pandemic), one broken finger nail that is a bit shorter than the rest. Not painted nails because energy. I always wear my engagement ring, usually I wear several other rings but with how my skin is being I thought I’d better not for a while.

54. what did you learn from your first job? Bakeries are hell, my circadian rhythm will not adjust to anything besides its natural state for longer than a couple of days at a time no matter how long or hard I try. I can absolutely fall asleep standing up.

55. favorite fairy tale? Ugly Duckling

56. favorite tradition? I don’t have anyway... Yet? Hopefully when I move this can become a thing.

57. the three biggest struggles you’ve overcome? I’m interpretting overcome loosely here, meaning “I have not died from this” - Suicide of my first love - Bullying - 3 different jobs that all nearly killed me

58. four talents you’re proud of having? Literally can’t think of one. I’m not talented. I’m passable at a couple of things, but I worked for those things and I’m still not good enough for anyone to confuse me for being talented xD Those things I care about that I’ve worked on a lot are singing, art, languages, crafts? I still struggled to come up with 4. My bad.

59. if you were a video game character, what would your catchphrase be? Aw jeez xD

60. if you were a character in an anime, what kind of anime would you want it to be? Magical Girl! This is an easy one, give me the powers and the clothes yessss.

61. favorite line you heard from a book/movie/tv show/etc.? Literally sitting here drawing a blank, so instead of favourite here is the first one that came into my head “eyes are the genitals of the head” (may have that wrong, I’m watching the Office for the first time rn)

62. seven characters you relate to? Clementine from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Amelie from Amelie Matilda from Matilda Quasimodo from the Hunchback of Notredame (also my favourite plush as a kid) Iris - The Holiday Jess - New Girl Amelia Shepherd - Grey’s Anatomy Struggled with this because suddenly I drew a blank and also couldn’t remember who my Fiance was talking about every time he’s watched a character and said “that’s you” repeatedly.

63. five songs that would play in your club? Starlight - Superman Lovers Pump It - Black Eyed Peas I Bet that You Look Good on the Dancefloor - Arctic Monkeys All the Things She Said - tATu Doctor Jones - Aqua Bonus: Push Up - Freestylers These are ones  I have memories of dancing to when I was younger so that’s how I picked, but I’d absolutely be a themed night club with different music on different nights.

64. favorite website from your childhood? Neopets, which I still play daily. The first I played was MaMaMedia, then Bubblegum Club.

65. any permanent scars? That’s a SORE subject heh get it heh

66. favorite flower(s)? Lavender, rose, peony

67. good luck charms? I usually carry gemstones if I’m needing to be particularly lucky, or sigils.

68. worst flavor of any food or drink you’ve ever tried? I hate anything spicy. I had rootbeer candy that tasted like literal dirt. I can’t eat banana stuff without gagging and getting a headache. I hate anything that is artificial blackberry or blackcurrant, tastes like shitty cough syrup.

69. a fun fact that you don’t know how you learned? Sea Monkeys breathe through their feet, but I remember where I learned that.

70. left or right handed? right

71. least favorite pattern? depends entirely on the colours, I like patterns. but certain stripes do make my eyes feel funny.

72. worst subject? If PE counts, then that. If not, math.

73. favorite weird flavor combo? I love pineapple on pizza but that’s not weird. Iused to eat cheese and jam sandwiches as a kid though.

74. at what pain level out of ten (1 through 10) do you have to be at before you take an advil or ibuprofen? I operate on how long it has lasted instead of how bad it is, essentially I get so desperate so I’ll try it even though it probably won’t help. I have the resistance of a rhino to most meds.
