[splatoon-names]

Idk if it's outrageous enough to qualify but i wanted to give a shoutout to someone i friended back in like splatoon 2, maybe splatoon 1 bc its been so long i cant remember by the name of lunchbox on the principle that their playername was silly and made me laugh and ive never interacted with them in any other capacity but to join games here and there but we're still registered as friends and i still get a smile on my face when their name pops up online. Its like tumblr mutuals who dont talk to each other but... splatoon

Near for the "send me a character"

thank you so much!!

favorite thing about them

aw hes a CUTIE!! he really is precious. I love his art honestly, he and misa are like, the only two really artistic dn characters and I love that we get to see the things that near makes and that we get some insight into what these things he makes and builds mean to him. Also, someone pointed out once that lots of the things he builds make sort of a fortress surrounding him, like somewhere inside him he feels like he needs to protect himself using his art, and that RIPS me to shreds

least favorite thing about them

oh how to pick a least favorite LOL there’s too much good!!! my least favorite thing about near is how i didn’t appreciate him enough when i first read the series like 500 years ago

favorite line

UGh i cant remember exactly what he says but there’s some line where he taunts light and calls him kira i THINK but anyway it sounds to me exactly like if he said ‘cranky bc youre kira are you’ and i just loSE my mind

brOTP

meronia!! I also love seeing Matt and Near quietly bond, natebit is a CUTE. also, rester is his dad

random headcanon

he dabbles in all sorts of art and he knows all the little old ladies who work at his local Porters because he’s in there all the time to pick up extra paint and clay and art glue. he likes to go himself although he doesn’t get out much because the ladies there are all so kind and sweet to him and he looks forward to chatting with them

unpopular opinion

hmmm whats unpopular……. i write him nonbinary in my fics and give him they/them pronouns!! idk if thats unpopular or anything, it might just not like, be done frequently, but i rly like it, it’s a v soft and self-indulgent hc to me

song i associate with them

AH!! DEFINITELY ‘all my heroes’ by bleachers. the lyrics “when all your heroes get tired/ill be something better yet” UGH that hits me right where it hurts ;alkjsd ive been wanting to make a near playlist JUST bc of that song actually

favorite picture of them

i just LOVE his hair here

send me a character and i’ll send you hcs!!
