I've been tagged ages ago by @dandenbo @mtreebeardiles and @sh00kspeared on different ask memes of the sort (thank you all for tagging me) and I'm in a sharing mood so I thought it'd be fun to just...compile them together because i'm insane

3 fave ships:

Johnny/m!V, Vik/m!V, mShenko; these three are always on rotation in my head amongst all my other ships atm.

First ship:

...it...um...uh.

Sonic/Shadow. Sigh.

Favorite childhood book:

I had a very, very brief phase of being into Eragon when I was in 7th grade or something (I'm talking very brief as in I never finished the first book)

Currently reading:

Not really anything currently, but the last fanfic I read was the spoils, the spoils by kindly on ao3 (E rated Vik/m!V fair warning). As far as physical reading material the last thing I read was 100 Ways to Improve Your Writing by Gary Provost.

Currently watching:

I don't actively watch shows/movies on my own time. I get too antsy at the idea of watching one continuous thing if I'm not like...purposefully determined to watch something (even then I need a break). The last time we used our streaming account was to watch Adventure Time, bf wanted to rewatch the show.

Fave color:

Basically everything in the circle, on the brighter/pastel side. Primarily pink tho.

Song stuck in head:

Right now it's Desperado by the Eagles

Last song listened to:

Chinatown by Jets to Brazil. Whenever i get around to making a playlist for my corpo V it's going on there.

Fave food:

Oh my god, there's so many. Tacos, good marbled brisket, hamburger.......

Spicy/sweet/savory:

Gimme it alllllllllllllllllllll

Currently craving:

Something fried and greasy and yucky because I've been stressed af all day

Last googled:

German Spitz for werewolf au purposes

Are you named after anyone?:

Yes! As a matter of fact! A book character with a name I vibed with immediately.

When was the last time you cried?:

A few weeks ago, can't even remember what it was tbh.

Do you have kids?:

I get bad baby fever from time to time, but something I came to terms with a while ago is that I'm too selfish to want children in my life. I value my privacy and alone time too much to disrupt that.

What sports do you play/have you played?:

I did karate and soccer when I was a wee lad. Neither interested me after a certain point.

Do you use sarcasm?:

Mostly when I know it'll be telegraphed as Being Funny, but I tend to do so unintentionally otherwise.

What is the first thing you notice about people?:

Hair usually, or whatever they're wearing

What's your eye color?:

Brown

Scary movies or happy endings?:

Happy endings I guess? It's been a while since I've seen a movie...

Any talents?:

I have a knack for drawing silly cartoon faces if that counts...

Where were you born?:

Island in the PNW

What are your hobbies?:

Drawing, writing and playing video games mostly. I like to daydream about having new hobbies too, if that counts.

Do you have any pets?:

BABY BOY 🫵 BABY

How tall are you?:

Like 5ft4in or something, very middle of the road.

Favorite subject in school?:

Art and history were my fave in school

Dream job?:

At this point I've given up on the idea of a specific dream job and now just want something that'll keep a roof over my head and let me get take out guilt free lol

Introduction and Blog Info

Well hello hello, and welcome to my humble blog! Come sit by the shore and watch the coming tide with me for a while, and let me introduce myself to you.

✧ About Me ✧

You can call me Oliver, Cecil, or Kujira, any of those are fine! My pronouns are he/him. I'm in many fandoms, some well known, and others fairly obcure, though my blog will mostly revolve around Sengoku Basara, if that wasn't already obvious. I also love whales (which is where my URL comes from), and daydream way too much. And to answer some very generic questions, my favorite color is pastel blue, and my favorite ice cream flavor is chocolate.

✧ Things I'll Post! ✧

✎ Character Imagines (Sengoku Basara) - I will take requests on these!

✎ Oneshots (Sengoku Basara and possibly other fandoms) - Will occassionally take requests on these as well.

✎ Longer, chapter based fanfiction (Sengoku Basara and other fandoms) - Won't accept requests on these for now (strictly because I'm afraid I'll lose motivation and let someone down).

✎ Original Stories - I have some of my own projects that I hope to show off here.

🖌 Digital Art - Mostly headshots of my OCs or favorite characters. Silly comics sometimes.

❅ Memes - Obviously.

+ other miscellaneous things.

✧ DNI and Similar Matters ✧

I want this blog to be a safe place for fun, so I think most of the things I will say are obvious. I don't tolerate homophobia, transphobia, or other similar things. Same of course goes for sexual things of the illegal nature, and also pro-shipping.

NSFW will not really be present on my blog. I'm ace, so I don't really need that sort of thing. The most that will probably appear is a few shirtless guys (or anatomy practice), or, when it comes to my fanfiction and other stories, simply leave a more passionate scene on an implication. So, if you came here to read something raunchy, I have to disappoint you, only fluff and angst over here!

✧ Fanfic Masterlist + Request Rules ✧

❅ REQUEST RULES HERE ❅

✦ Sengoku Basara Imagines ✦

Comfort after a nightmare - Kojūrō, Masamune, Yukimura, Sasuke, Motochika, Keiji, Magoichi

Taking a bullet for your beloved (literally) - Masamune, Nagamasa, Kotarō

Taking care of each other's wounds - Masamune, Sasuke, Kojūrō, Kotarō

You fell first, they fell too late - Magoichi, Mitsunari, Shingen

Thank you for reading all this, and have a beautiful day!

🚩 🚩 🚩 [can I get uhhh post formatting, shipping, and memes/prompts?]

Send me a 🚩 and i'll share my unpopular rpc opinions and hot takes [Accepting]

//I'm going to put these under read mores because my salt tends to burn.

//I cannot with the motherfuckers out there who think it's cute to overly format to the point I can't read your fucking rules page, and then get mad when I break one.

//FOR FUCKING FUTURE REFERENCE, COLOR CHOICE IS ALSO IMPORTANT!! There is a god-damn reason I use plain black font, with white background. It's not because I'm boring, or because I don't care. It's because I do care, you rapid dogshit clout chasers.

//If I see another baby pastel blog with white background bitch and moan about people not reading their rules, I'm getting me mallet. People aren't following your rules not because they don't care, it's because your fucking blog is unreadable!! Cry more, maybe you'll wash out the colors enough to force a repaint.

//This goes for dashboard formatting as well. I don't care if you use tiny text or overly floral fonts/colors. Just keep in mind that it needs to be legible! Have fun but don't get mad when people just stop hanging out with you.

------

//Ahh, shipping, my beloathed. I love shipping. I hate shipping with people. Hate how I have to look at a person for a while and judge their literacy before I even think about shipping, even joke ships.

//A popular example is Joker and Harley Quinn from Batman. Yes, it's toxic. That's the point. That's literally part of Harleys character arc!! But some people swing wildly in the "It's a perfect fucked up romance like me and my boo" (Btw seek help) and the "It's toxic, and you're bad for liking the content!" (also seek help) directions.

//I don't even have issues with most kinds of ships, I just really do not like it when people have opinions that aren't rooted in media literacy.

//A more personal example is Meredith and The Emperor from 40k. It's toxic. The power dynamic is fucked, neither of them communicate by the halfway point, it's not built on mutual trust but just raw emotion (which can run wild in a war story) and they do love each other, but they're not good for each other.

//I love that ship because both parties are so close to making it work, but their core characters won't let it happen.

-------

//Fuck it, we ball. That's how things have been since the old days, and that's how I always have treated memes/prompts. Doesn't have to make sense, just have fun with the silly situation.

//The major annoyance I have with these is when they continue, and it leads into my second-biggest issue with the rpc, which I'll elaborate on here in a different ask. Lack of response formatting.

Remember, kids, a rpc reply is not just reacting to what happens and sitting there like a viewer. You're an active participant. Add something! Throw in a new character, or a dead rat. Don't have an idea on where to progress the plot? Make it up on the fly! That's half the fun. Or, better idea TALK TO YOUR PARTNER!! USE YOUR FINGERS OR MOUTH OR WHATEVER TO EXPRESS WORDS AND IDEAS!!

Ryo for the meme?

So sorry for the delay on this one! I kept having issues with my draft not saving and needing to start over.

I sincerely think Ryou was my first favorite character from Yugioh, even before Kaiba, if you can believe it.

1. Why do you like or dislike this character?

When I was first introduced to Yugioh, what struck me about him and made me latch onto him was the obvious emotional pain. At the time I was just starting to figure out my own depression and anxiety that my family was oblivious to, and I think I just related to that lack of support. I guess this is the answer for Question 25.

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

How excited her gets about food, actually. He and Joey are probably almost equally enthusiastic about it, and it's adorable.

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

How they changed his dad in DSOD. I preferred it when the dad was an oblivious nerd just trying to give his son a cool gift instead of being a power-hungry weirdo.

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?

This probably sounds silly, but I want him living his best life in a Pokemon game with a team that he's bonded to, getting to live an RPG adventure just like Monster World, but a little bit safer. I want him taking a nap leaning on his Altaria with an Absol curled up at his feet, looking like it's asleep but keep watching. And don't forget his floaty little Shuppets hovering about.

5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?

Friend of Foe by t.A.T.u. because I watched so many AMVs at the time that I was introduced to Yugioh. The song captures his poignant and desperate confusion with his own life and identity.

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

Honestly, aside from Question 1, nothing specific comes to mind aside from general nerdiness. I used to have a bad sweet tooth, like I imagine he does, but not so much anymore.

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

Making him a sweet spooky boi with 27 tarot card decks at home that dresses like he's going to bible study. Also, a big one is giving him visible scars from all the stuff Y B has put him through: the arm, the left hand, the chest.

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

I wouldn't say despise. Not sure I'd say I dislike anything the fandom does with him too much

9. Could you be roommates with this character?

I imagine he's a night owl, so as long as he keeps things quiet at night, we wouldn't have a problem.

10. Could you be best friends with this character?

Definitely! We could probably introvert in the room together, doing our own things, or chat about art.

11. Would you date this character?

Again, I'm married, but if I had the chance and Y B was gone for good, absolutely.

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

I've actually always headcanoned that Ryou had a Catholic mom and she tried to pass on her faith to him, but it didn't fully stick, necessarily. This isn't from nowhere, I swear. In the church scene in season five, in the English dub, Ryou goes into the church saying "I should be safe in here" after running from a disembodied voice. I think that means that he must have some small level of faith if he thinks the church itself will ward off the evil.

13. What's an emoji, an emoticon and/or any symbol that reminds you of this character or you think the character would use a lot?

🥰👀🙏🤷‍♀️🤔

14. Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character.

Galaxy Goth - Give him star earrings and glittery platform boots. Give him galaxy print leggings and an illusion neckline shirt with sheer/lacy sleeves. 👌👌👌👌👌✨✨✨✨✨✨ Hell, make it femboy too, he could rock that so hard. Make it pastel galaxy goth, it works just as well. Dress this boy up.

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

You know I can't ever just pick one ship. I'm a multishipper. It's never just one.

Euroshipping, Minorshipping, and Puffshipping are my top three.

Mumbleshipping, Rollshipping, and Teaseshipping are my top poly ships for him.

Honorable mention to Graceshipping, cause I think he and Ishizu could be so damn sweet together, and that's my #1 straight ship for him.

16. What's your least favorite ship for this character?

Tendershipping, actually. I don't hate on it or people who like it, and I have a soft spot for some of his ships, but I just can't see Yami Bakura the way a lot of the fandom sees him, and that's where it comes from. I don't wanna get into it because this isn't a Y B post. I'll just leave it at that. No hate here, just a different perspective.

17. What's a ship for this character you don't hate but it's not your favorite that you're fine with?

Deathshipping. I can appreciate some of the art and some of the sillier conceptions of this ship, but I'm not personally into it.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

I haven't read the manga, but I've seen enough moments from it of Ryou and Joey together (included what looked like stealing a camel together), and their bond in DSOD was too adorable. It made me so happy to finally see somebody standing up for Ryou.

19. How about a relationship they have in canon that you don't like?

Obviously I wish he didn't get so roughed up by Y B.

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

Normally I'd leave ship characters out of it, but I can't help it: Ishizu, Joey, and Duke are my top picks here.

21. If you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for this character? What's something you don't like?

I play around with different versions of what's Ryou's mentality can be like after Bakura is gone and what the lasting impact is. There's a lot of options there, which is why I don't write just one version of Ryou.

22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to this character? Something you don't like?

There's a lot of things that people do with him. I love when people flesh out his relationship with his family and

23. Favorite picture of this character?

EVERY PICTURE HE IS PRECIOUS

But him with the banana.

24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?

Okay, gonna try to stick to canon personality with this.

From Touken Ranbu, Nikkari Aoe. He seems sweet and normal on the surface, and then he'll suddenly say the weirdest occult crap to you with the most normal smile and you just want to back away slowly. And then you realize, oh dear this man's a weirdo. An absolute weirdo. (He's the one that can see ghosts after all, there's a real connection over that.) (He gets two gifs because you need to understand what a weirdo he is.)

From UtaPri, we've got Shion from Heavens. He's a quiet shy boy on the surface with soulful eyes, but still waters run deep. I feel like they're both easy to underestimate.

And from Nanbaka, I can't really explain why, I always associated him with Seitarou Tanabata. Maybe because they share the spiky Christmas tree hair, idk. Maybe I just think they'd be good friends.

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

See Question 1.

26. FREEBIE QUESTION!!

This boy is helpless in the kitchen. He's gonna have to count on his partner to either cook for him or teach him how to cookl
