QUESTIONS MEME

QUESTIONS MEME

Not everything has to be a riddle.

The arrivals month is coming to a close, and we've got new people and new plans in the wings - since there are always brains to be picked and new monster-fan friends to be made, let's kick the weekend off with a getting-to-know-you game!

HOW TO PLAY:
• Leave a comment with your name and the characters you play.
• Comment to other players' toplevels with questions - anything from "what kind of monster would your character most like to be?" to "what is your favorite type of CR?" to "what's your favorite dessert?" is fair game!
• For every question you answer, give its asker a question back - keep up the chain as long as you'd both like!
• Have fun, make friends, make plans - let it all march out!

Why did you pick up your characters? C:

Canonically, I would have to say the Infamous I Refuse Page from Highway Star! The chapter itself was great for his character development with Josuke but that page super resonates as like a quintessential part of his character.

It's his ego AND him overcoming something literally whispering in his ear telling him to harm someone.

As for in-game, he's changed a whole lot since first arriving but I really have a soft spot for his first exchange with Karamatsu where he is kind of feeling him out and doing pretty much exactly what he is in the canon example I used. Granted, Karamatsu is harmless but he really took him down a few pegs and I like to think Kara developed out of that too!

ofc thats my interpretation but it mostly just looked like this......

If your character wanted to change something about himself (interpret that how ever), what would it be?

What would Dandy change about himself? ...Nothing, he thinks he's perfect.

Maybe laser eyes. But that's like...a super maybe.

Oh geez, I don't know. I still feel kinda new to the game, so my plotting has always been "getting settled."

Until then, I guess if he ever had to die, I'd like it be because he was protecting someone. idk I'm a sap like that. I'm looking forward to finally bringing in a fog form later down the line, too.

I always love that Kat looks so happy in that icon!

And with Josh, ha, it mostly started off as a whim! I wrote an Until Dawn one-shot one night that wound up dialogue-heavy, and I wound up liking writing his voice so much that later in the week, I whipped up an account for him and started throwing him off of the other UD characters around at the time - I got and stayed hooked!

With Lucas and Mettaton, it was admittedly the fact that they're my favorite characters in their respective games but that I didn't feel like I was seeing enough of the parts of their characters that I find most fun to watch as traits (e.x. that Mettaton has a caring side and does like to make other people happy, but that he can also be so jarringly insensitive without a care in the world, and that he is a bit of a badass but is so darn campy; or that Lucas is smart but is also a big, bratty child) through peeking at fanwork of them - that transitioned into well...? Wouldn't that be fun to write yourself? and so I jumped into whipping up accounts for them - it also helped that with all three characters, I dig their "energies" and ways of physically expressing themselves, which are things I get a load of enjoyment out of picturing and trying to describe!

And another question for you right back! Off the top of your head, what would you say your favorite piece of media is?
