#i hope i answered these properly lol

[abstractredd]

7, 15 and 34 :3c

hehehe :3

putting it under a cut bc im long winded af sorry

7. Any worldbuilding you’re particularly proud of?

I might be cheating a little bit but oMaM is feeling pretty good to me right now, granted Skyrim already has an existing world but I like to add in my own interpretation of the lore and certain areas and events so I'm counting that LOL

15. What’s your favorite AU that you’ve written?

Probably the KNY Idol Au (although I still haven't published the fic LOL... it's only two chapters,,, so rn its still just a collection of ramblings and a few drawings)

34. What aspects of your writing are inspired by/taken from your real life?

Uhh I'm not sure if this counts but I tend to project onto the main/POV character in what I'm writing, especially if its a fic of a character that I really like. So little random stuff will be actually stuff that I do. The most tangible example I can list off right now is in Liebesfreud:

"'You were just staring at your phone like you got some huge news or something. Did you win a Words with Friends game?' 'No,' Zenitsu said. He never won those. He was convinced Susan was a huge cheater."

I used to play Words With Friends a lot and I think it's funny to imagine Zenitsu playing it so that's like a direct nod to my real life/habits I suppose.

what does our best guy detective fear like to do for fun? owo

aw! Thank you for the question 🥺💜 Nobody ever asks me things about my AU gdfsfh 🥹😭 /pos

But anyways-

He probably plays a lot of chess and card games given the chance and a worthy opponent. He'd join tournaments, he's not exactly competitive but still likes the feeling of outsmarting his opponents. He reads a lot (horror and thrillers despite his overactive imagination, and… sometimes, trashy romance). He'll happily critique or pick apart trashy movies and admittedly, he's fond of cartoons and silent films.

Even though some "scary" movies amuse him more than scare him, he's interested in criminal psychology in an almost morbid way, keeping himself up late at night reading about horrific crimes.

Socializing heavily isn't really his thing, he's shy, easily overstimulated and keeps to himself. Contrasting with his partner Anger, who's always dragging Fear to noisy gatherings where there's a lot of booze, smoke and jazz music. It's ok though, Fear gets to drag Anger to the theater (where Anger will usually wind up falling asleep from the boredom, if Fear's commentary doesn't keep him awake).

Lately a certain thief lady is on Inspector Fear's mind and he spends an awful lot of time thinking about her and trying to find her, even and especially during his off-hours, though whether it's "fun" is up for debate.

I suddenly remember That you never told us how a meeting between Prime/Archie! Sonic and Fleetway (Amnesiac/Good) Super Sonic would go.

Also I want to read Fleetway Sonic and scourge reactions if They somehow end Up dating (I like Fleetonic and I need something to draw lol)

I imagine any meeting between Prime and Super would likely come after Prime has already had the misfortune of meeting Sonic, and subsequently had at least one (1) argument about Super. If the argument hasn't already happened by the time Prime and Super meet, it's definitely imminent. I imagine Prime would be a lot more forgiving of Super than Sonic is (partly because he just doesn't have the same baggage Sonic does and partly because he's just overall less of a dick) so he'd be sympathetic to his plight. He'd be much quicker to believe Super when he says he doesn't want to be that evil person who hurts and kills people for fun. Sonic would scoff and call him a trusting idiot, but it's not that Prime is oblivious to or ignoring the danger that Super can cause, he just doesn't believe dogpiling the guy about it will actually help his situation

Sonic's reaction to finding out they're dating would just be more "I think you're fucking stupid" or, depending on how not-awful his relationship with Super is, just a quiet scoff. He probably tells Prime that if he's soooo fond of Super, then he can take Super with him back to his dimension, but he's probably also secretly worried about Prime actually following through, because if anything goes wrong, Sonic isn't there to help stop it. Chaos energy in the fleetway dimension is fucky and corrupted; for all his bitching and "don't come crying to me if he tries to kill all your friends", Sonic doesn't actually want another universe to suffer from that corrupted energy. He definitely doesn't want the chaos energy in the prime zone to become corrupted the same way his was, either

I can't imagine Scourge has much emotional attachment to Super to care too much. Like, he sees a part of himself in Super, specifically in how both of their identities used to be tied to Sonic, but he doesn't like that he can relate to Super. He doesn't hate or dislike him, but he definitely doesn't like him, either. He just often ends up being the one Ebony calls for out of everyone else in the freedom fighters because he's the one with the least amount of history with Super, so Super doesn't put him on edge the same way he does everyone else. So if Super started dating Prime, he'd probably just make some snarky comment about weak-hearted goody-two-shoes flocking together

Ultimately, the two of them together will probably mock the relationship. They probably only find out because one of them comes home and immediately starts bitching about how "did you HEAR Super and Prime are dating now???" and then they spend an hour talking shit about them. After all, even if Sonic has warmed up to Super a little, he probably still doesn't trust him or is comfortable being around him, and Scourge is a stubborn fucker who won't change his mind about disliking Prime out of sheer spite, so neither Prime nor Super have much of Sonic and Scourge's respect

6, 12, 20, 23 & 25 for Sawashiro!

CHARACTER ASK GAME!!! 💫

6. What's something you have in common with this character?

I feel like I'd have to make the understatement of the century to make any of my experiences or characteristics sound equivalent to his LMAO but with something like the wiki, I can definitely relate to his frustrations with feeling like people don't pull their own weight or listen to my instructions, and I definitely don't hold back in expressing that. For better and for worse...

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

I guess it's semi-canon because of RGGO, but I like to think he wears perfume. Definitely something floral based on the petals in his heat aura...

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

Arakawa bro this is NOT a QUESTION😭😭😭😭😭I'm certainly curious what his relationships with with various characters will be like in Infinite Wealth, but I don't think he'll ever have what he had with Arakawa again...

23. Favorite picture of this character?

There are a lot of pictures of him I like that actually have his face in the frame (the Tsutsumi bias is UNREAL believe me), but since I have the same brain as @todayisafridaynight (whom most of my followers also follow) and he's posted them a fair few times, I'll take a moment to highlight this particular shot. It always sticks out in my mind on a symbolic level. The way he deliberately bloodies the hand that was clean...

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

I was really thrown off! I loved Sawashiro's character from RGGO and the two couldn't be more different, in both design and and personality. Learning he was a faceclaim cleared up my confusion somewhat, but I was still apprehensive I wouldn't like him as much as I did RGGO's take on his character, since he was tied with Mine for my favorite main antagonist at the time. Although he's not exactly in the running for that particular title given he isn't a final-boss-level antagonist, he is now absolutely one of my favorite characters in the franchise to date.

In terms of how my impressions evolved throughout my experience of the game, that's a little harder to track. I believe RGGS were doing playthroughs of most of Chapter 1 up to Jo's final scene in that chapter, which is all it took for me to look forward to the rest. It should be noted I specifically watched the Japanese version when it came out, about a year prior to its Western release.

I think I'd seen his second boss fight's dynamic intro/transitions prior to actually getting to that point, I believe, and Well. They Were Sexy. What can I say... Unfortunately, something else I'd seen (been told against my will, rather) before that point was the plot twist, but it does speak to the writing and execution that despite this and the fact I thought his abusive background with his father was a little hokey at the time (<- WRONG), the combination of Coin Locker Baby (the entire chapter) as well as his "scene" in the epilogue solidified him as a favorite. Even before then, I found it intriguing to note things like his deference to authority and the lore conveyed through his battles themselves and to compare and contrast him with how RGGO's Sawashiro was executed.

I couldn't honestly say who I prefer between RGGO or YLAD's Sawashiros even at the time. If nothing else, I fully believe they're both the kinds of characters who get better and better the more you revisit and discuss them--I changed my mind on Sawashiro's abusive background just from seeing how well it ties in to his scenes with the rest of the Arakawa family unit, for example. Talking to Snap very much rekindled my love for him as well, and I'm super excited to see him back in Infinite Wealth!

love this tweet as if we don't have a winning record rn on the backs of our star players and woll actually

11 and 15 for Past Life Asks. Go crazy, I want details :D

im gonna have to put this under a read more but here u go!!! ty for the ask!!

11. The other cultists. How did your Durge view them? Did they enjoy their following or did they dread being idolised?

He took to becoming the leader of the church very well.

After actively trying (and failing) to resist the Urge before Sceleritas Fel guided him toward the temple, he was suddenly being praised to no end for his heritage and the gifts which he possessed.

Perhaps he didn't need to change after all. Embrace the Urge, just like Father and everybody else wants him to.

He enjoyed being propped up - being given purpose and an important one at that. He did eventually reach a point where he got very used to having people fall before him and kiss his feet. Major bratty favourite child vibes toward the end of his pre-tadpole phase.

He was as reasonable as a Bhaalist leader probably can be. When he would feast, the others could too. He gladly led all ceremonies and rituals, knowing he was serving his Father well. If any followers needed guidance, he would point them in the direction of a few souls within the city who wouldn't be missed, but would be readily accepted by Bhaal.

Kaidos would also, however, not hesitate to keep his followers in line. If needs be, he will use them as an example to all other cultists on how not to behave under Bhaal's roof before spilling their blood on Father's altar.

15. Bhaal handcrafted Durge. Do they enjoy and worship their appearance, or did they have a rebellious phase, trying their best to change their Lord Father's grand design?

I think I mentioned this in a now deleted joke-ish post before, but all of Kaidos' tattoos and piercings are in honour of Bhaal. He really felt like he owed everything to his Father, and so actively made his entire body a dedication to him. (nsfw part but he even has dick piercings also in honour of him. how did bhaal feel about that? idk he probably liked it)

As a child, he was a very lanky tiefling boy, and he was a little self conscious of it just because he was so much taller than all of the other children in the Lower City. As a teen and on his own pre-temple, he was still noticeably big and self conscious about it, given he was actively trying to hide and shut himself away from the world.

However, as soon as he was in the temple and suddenly being praised for just being him, he really started to love himself. All of the muscle he has now is thanks to Kaidos once again dedicating his body to his Father; becoming the ultimate weapon to achieve his one true purpose.

[dandyshucks]

SHOULDNT YOU BE WITH YOUR SPOUSE YOU READ THE DIRECTIONS WRONG ITS A LEFT ON SELFSHIP PIKE NOT A RIGHT

pulled him and instantly thought of u hehe so here’s a screenshot of ur man

THERE HE ISSSS WAAUUGHHH

I saw that you started playing p.okemas because they added R.ika and I was like omg... I wonder if they'll see Guz.... I considered downloading it a while back but it doesnt work on my device 😭😭 (probably for the best because gacha games are not good for me LMAO)

as much as I adore my own design of him, I still do love the different canon variations of him,,,, he gets me so flustered with his awful posture and grumpy eyebrows DBHFDJL

ANYWAYS THANK YOUUUU 🫶 i love this sm and it's so cool that u thought of me :3 I am doing cartwheels and jumping up and down and running around SBFHDKL

[howldean]

hi i wanted to just say that i think you’re so super cool, wanna be you when i grow up

i’d like to be me when i grow up too

[bo0zey]

anyone else ever get in those silly goofy moods where u just hate urself sooo much that u instantly feel physically almost violently ill just thinking abt urself and also even tho u worked a 12hr shift w no breaks or water running off of the 2 cups of coffee u had for breakfast 20 hours ago, the thought of eating instantly sends bouts of nausea coursing thru ur soul while churning in ur stomach bc ur brain hates u so much that its convinced ur body that u don’t deserve sustenance or anything else that’s life sustaining or promotes ur physical well being because u subconsciously convinced urself that ur such a shit excuse for a human being that u neither deserve nor have any right to anything regarding maslow’s hierarchy of needs bc u r such an awful thing u deserve to be neglected n treated like the nonliving object ur own brain sees ur living body as or am i just mentally ill lol

[stevenrogered]

if you don't mind sharing, what didn't you like about the movie The Other Zoey? I've seen mostly that people have liked and I usually like the same things you do so I'm just curious! that's all, hope it's not rude to ask, totally fine if you don't post <3

i dont mind! :)

im someone who will excuse A LOT in movies but the premise and especially the end of the movie itself was too ridiculous, even for me lol i dont know what it is but i just couldnt get over it

and there was so much they could have done with archie renaux's character instead of the route they took. it was just lazy, imo. actually that's the best word i would use to describe the movie as a whole: lazy. it had a lot of potential and it could have been really great if they just took the time to give some more nuance to the dialogue/story

drew starkey was hands down the best part and no shade AT ALL but i bet all the people who liked it are drew/rafe from OBX fans lol he has a future in romcoms for sure if he wants! :)

[jasperygrace]

Happy Worldbuilding Wednesday!

How did the world of your story came into existence (how did it shape itself into what it is today)? Is there any myth/rumour/or lore surrounding it?

For those that write contemporary fiction (but can be answered by anyone!) What your main cast’s relationship with the law (do they abide by it, are they troublemakers, do they actively seek to go against it, etc…)?

Hello hello! Thanks for being patient for the reply.

Asheva is the main overall setting for many of my stories (Pro:Des included); it is a small continent surrounded by a storm that never ends. Asheva was created by a being known as the God of Reality (or colloquially, the Administrator).

It's said that the Administrator fell into the world through a dream and created a land she could escape reality to. Over time, as she continued building this inner fantasy, she would grow weaker and weaker, so she created the Deities to watch over the land in her absence. And when that time came, she walked off into the horizon, never to be seen again.

It's contested whether or not the Admin actually existed as the only record of her existence comes from Deities who have long since passed or have reincarnated too many times to truly remember.

[elegyofthemoon]

In the cool, plush core of the moon sleeps a mouse as we speak, dreaming of a world lush and green, then golden and undulating, then chopping and churning, a world of many surfaces with skies of many moods.

When it awakes, it will poke its tiny head out of a crater and bask in your glow as it does every morning. Here, all is still and silent. On that sparkling planet in the deep black distance, the sun seems capricious. But the mouse lives in the abyss of the body and therefore with a unique perspective on its essence. The mouse sees what other life does not see.

One needn't worry about unbecoming for the sake of containing a sun. Clouds may blanket the atmosphere of a planet, but still there burns a sun. The spots on the sun's surface may grow and shrink and shift, but still there it burns. And if one decides to cool it down like a waning flame or expand it in a cataclysmic supernova, still there it burns, and one has the right to revoke the state of their existence and become new.

Because perhaps the truth is you are not the sun--not alone--but it is rather a part of you. Your body is the solar system, each planet a world within the body, and each knows this glow in different ways. Some are nurtured by its warmth, others by its distance. Regardless of the sun's changes, they stay the course encircling it.

The universe cannot be held back, harnessed, fully comprehended. It pulls at the seams of solar systems as it pulls on its own seams. In that unstoppable shifting, we stumble. Sometimes it feels like our love and light slips from our fingers, shattering irrevocably in our falls. But what makes us cannot be seperated from us, even in times where our essence is obscured.

There is always another life to appreciate your life, no matter what happens. And in the least, there is always a little mouse in you that understands you in telescopic clarity and offers forgiveness for every change--no matter what, right into the end of time.

❤

I'm curious if you've got any wips for a shazam fic set in years between movie 1 and 2, like about billy getting worn down by the constant love and support from everyone and I guess slowly building up that fear of "I don't know what I would do if anything happened to them" :3c or if you have any headcanons or fic recs set in that time period :33c

i DO actually have at least one fic planned! i'm in the middle of plotting it out right now because it's gonna be a 5+1 fic (which i have never attempted before so i'm weirdly nervous? about that? lmao) and i'm very excited to be able to work on it hehe. as for fic recs iiii don't have anything off the top of my head because i'm in the middle of something right now but probably sometime this next week i'm going to update my fic rec spreadsheet with all the shazam fics i've found that i enjoy! i'll probably make a post when they've been added. the sheet needs a bit of an overhaul tbh now that i've combined the old d.smp sheet with everything else.

[honeyhotteoks]

If you make a subscription though it would only be fair if it did mean we would get benefits like chapters earlier otherwise i think the discord should be free

i mean i think the way i've seen patreons and things like that designed in the past would have some kind of a donation tier, but honestly i haven't thought that far into yet.

i do agree additional written benefits make sense, like access to chapters early or access to rough drafts or maybe even a few of my abandoned works.... but my concern is more that i would have people sign up and pay a monthly fee expecting monthly consistent content, and i'm nervous that the pressure would mean i'm writing more slowly or that i would rush to put out work before i was happy with it.

i really wouldn't want to take advantage of people's money in that way if i couldn't consistently deliver, so i totally agree i just worry about letting y'all down.

as far as the discord goes.... that's a fair point but i think if i were to do it, i would probably have it be part of a donation. creating a discord server and moderating it is more work that i think people think. i would really want to make sure the server is a safe space for people to talk and share their opinions, but i don't know all of my readers personally so there's a chance something like a discord gets messy and i'd have to moderate it more intentionally.

i don't talk about my real life on here often, but truly finding the time for that would be hard. i work ~50+ hours a week most weeks and my job is challenging and client facing. i'm also learning an entirely new skill right now which eats into my personal time. this plus maintaining healthy irl friendships, my relationship with my partner, and keeping up with regular life maintenance means my free time has to be spent on writing or i'd never publish anything. finding time for moderating a discord would be a bit more of a chore, so if i were to create it i would need to put it behind a pay wall for my own sanity lol

How about 🍎🍒🍋 for Haleth and Erden? 👀

-Gedankenmoon

Emoji Themed OC Interview

🍎- Who does your OC value above all else?

This is a tricky one, since they're both alone atm, if they had a partner it would be (insert partner) but

Haleth

Mau her cat familiar, aka her emotional support kitty. Mau has got her through some difficult times.

Erden

Honestly, like brutally honestly... Himself. Erden lives on survival mode which means he is his number one priority.

🍒 - Who is your OC's perfect companion?

Haleth

Someone who's very patient and understanding, Haleth is weird with social cues and takes a while to fully open up and trust people. Also someone with a soothing vibe bc she's an anxious bitch who needs constant reassurance.

Erden

Someone who's non judgemental abt his past, adventurous and open to trying new things, who can offer him a sence of stability without been too overbearing. Also not afraid to call him out on his bullshit.

🍋- What is their kryptonite/ultimate weakness?

Haleth

Her lack of social skills, she sucks at social interactions, doesn't really have any friends, and if she does make friends (once she's comfortable with them) she gets obsessively attached and can't/doesn't know how to cope if they leave her.

Erden

His family or any mention of them. It's always been sore point for him not really knowing where he came from, he doesn't like talking about it and gets pissy if anyone asks him.

Heyoooo!!! How about, ⚡️Lightning? (For the WIP weather ask game)

WIP Weather Ask Game

⚡️Lightning - Have you ever spontaneously added something to your story that you wouldn't have added normally? If so, what made you do it?

It wasn't exactly in my plans to make Vax have depression in Bime at first. I was just going to make him maybe have some social anxiety, but then chapter 9 happened. I almost deleted that chapter, but I decided to keep it because I felt like it would be important to the story and I needed more depressed Vax representation.
