Favorite Location

Thank you for playing @possibleplatypus and anons! <3

when I started shipping it if I did:By the end of episode one of YOI in 2016, I was sold. :Dmy thoughts:It has been years since I fell this hard for an anime, hard enough to want to start writing again. And one of the major reasons was the relationship between Viktor and Yuuri. Their mutual respect and admiration for each other, how they supported and drew each other out of their respective shells, the way they fought and had misunderstandings and evolved through communication (and skating!) - it was a joy to witness their relationship develop through the series. 

What makes me happy about them:Mutual pining, the way they surprise and inspire each other, the kiss, the rings, Viktor’s gestures of affection and Yuuri gradually getting accustomed to the touches…………..What makes me sad about them:Nothing, really! I would love for them to be a canon gay couple, but hey, that’s what fanfic/art is for. ;) things done in fanfic that annoys me:Any fic that has flanderization of their characters, like Viktor being silly/goofy all the time, or Yuuri being anxious/weepy. things I look for in fanfic:Off the top of my head: pining, love at first sight, slow burn, one or both of them being BAMF, domestic bliss, Yuuri as power bottom.Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:Hmmm. Viktor with Chris. For Yuuri, I’m open to seeing him with Phichit or Yurio. Kenjiro…. is a big maybe? My happily ever after for them:I might be thinking way far ahead, but I see Viktor as a full-time professional coach, hair dulled to a soft grey, and Yuuri as a skating instructor for children at a local skating rink. He’s sporting just a bit of a pudge, which Viktor adores and wants more of. They’re married, of course, though I can’t decide if they’re in Russia, or Japan, or some other wonderful country that they’ve chosen to make their home. They skype with friends and family often, and they’ve found a partner for Makkachin and are surrounded by a family of energetic poodles. :Dwho is the big spoon/little spoon:They switch it up. ;) Though I believe that Viktor is more often the big spoon than Yuuri.

what is their favorite non-sexual activity:Besides ice skating? xD I’m going to share two: (1) taking Makkachin to the dog park and watching him frolic with the other dogs, their fingers laced together; (2) reading together on the couch, with Viktor’s head pillowed on Yuuri’s lap.

OH YOU KNOW IT!!!

So like I definitely think that Lup and Taako chose their respective schools of magic, evocation and transmutation, based on the spells that they used most frequently to help each other out when they were kids. Lup's fire magic has a pretty obvious purpose to it. She spent enough time watching Taako shiver under blankets that had gotten holey months ago, and at some point sharing body heat just isn't enough. He's not the type to handle the cold well. She always wished she could do more for him. One night they're huddling together and Lup is just thinking about how much she wants him to be warm. All of a sudden he yelps and jumps back from her hand on his shoulder, which happens to be glowing red and emanating heat. Just being near her fist keeps them warm enough to pass the evening comfortably and sleep. She'd known for awhile that she had magic in her, but now, without even thinking about it, she'd found the best way to use it.

And Taako, of course, saw how much Lup relished the moments when they got a taste of something nice, when they pilfered a bar of chocolate or ate their aunt's roast. He didn't want her to have to give that up when they fell on hard times. His attempts at producing food with magic at first were pretty poor, tasteless and misshapen, but she appreciated it, and he kept trying.

15. Have they ever lost somebody they loved?

I’d say so. A couple members of her party ended up leaving before their adventure was over and one could perhaps conclude that she loved them. Both of them are still alive, to her knowledge, but she certainly feels the loss of their presence.

16. They find a genie and are granted three wishes, what do they wish for, and why?

1) That her parents treated her better because they’re the reason she left home 2) That she had the ability to freely go between the normal realm and the Feywild at will because that’s where her patron (who has sort’ve become a motherly figure to her) and one of those people she cares about are both there 3) The ability to conjure a muffin for herself whenever she wants because she loves muffins and good food can be hard to come by when you’re out traveling

17. They’re stranded on an island and can only have 4 items and one companion, who and what do they bring?

She would bring her arcane focus (a small black diamond she got when she got her magical abilities), the amulet she got later on from her patron, her sketchbook and pen (i’m counting those as one item), and her fur-lined cloak because a girl gets chilly and needs to look nice even when stranded. Her companion would be her familiar, a pseudodragon named Beatrice. emotional support dragon

18. What’s a quote (not from their universe) that you associate them with?

The song Out of Reach by the Get Up Kids immediately reminded me of Cairyn when I thought about it:

this is sad i apologize

19. Any romantic interests?

Ehhhh, I wouldn’t say so. There’s potential, sure, but I think the things that happened between her and a couple others in her party leaned more in the direction of friends with benefits if I’m being honest

20. What kind of accent do they have?

…An elvish one, I guess? I feel like the default for that is just some sort of English accent? Beyond that, she’s kinda deadpan, if that counts as part of an accent.

21. What is their most prized possession?

Probably her familiar. Bea is… very important to her.

22. Have they ever stolen anything?

That’s adorable, I love that! Omg. So cute, so worthy.

Vax: 

How I feel about him:

I was admittedly rather indifferent to him at first, since he always seemed to fade into the background next to figures like Scanlan and Grog. Then again, that’s what rogues are meant to do. But the more I watched him readily putting himself in harms way to protect others, the more I started to feel with him. 

He was deep down someone who always cared immensely for others above himself, but the world had taught him it was safer to keep a distance. He chose to ignore that lesson and work with others and he was so much better off for it.

People I ship romantically with him:

I was actually rather happy that he got together with Keyleth, because it was so clear that those two brought out the best in each other. She showed him a world that wasn’t as terribly grim as he saw it, and he helped her grow into her role as a leader.

I would have been happy if those two and Gilmore had started a poly relationship though. 

My non-romantic OTP for this character:

I don’t have one single OTP, so bear with me.

There is, first and foremost, his relationship with Vex. Those two and their twin shenanigans were such an amazing combination, even though any time one of them got in trouble, it tore my heart out. 

His brotherhood with Percy, Grog and Scanlan was glorious. Each of those three gave him something important, taught him something. Grog was his brother and rival, and they forced each other to reach for higher peaks of skill all the time. Percy taught him not to be as reckless, to think of those he would leave behind. And Scanlan, I think Scanlan taught him trust, but also to live life to the fullest. (He also made me cry so much)

And than there’s his bond with Pike, who, even when their paths in terms of faith divided always was by his side, ready to lead him and remind him of the gentle light inside himself.

My unpopular opinion about this character:

Not sure how unpopular this opinion is, but I felt like he was often repeating conversations with people, always using the same string of arguments. Other than that, I don’t really have anything.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

...I wanted him to survive. I knew it wasn’t likely, given the Raven Queens rules, but I was hoping to the very end. That was something that really stuck with me, because his loss was final and painful. 

Now I hope he’s watching over his family and hangs out with Mollymauk

Vex:

How I feel about this character:

Again, it took some time for her to grow on me, but once she did, heavens did she storm my heart. Yes she was greedy, yes she had a lot of amoral moments, but she weighed them up with all the times she let herself just...feel and open up to those around her. 

I understood why she was usually very guarded, why she did the things she did, but my favorite moments where those when she had an open and honest conversation with someone.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

I will go down with the MS. Percalia. All joking aside, those two are the perfect couple to star in either a Greek or Shakespearean Drama. They constantly pulled each other back from the brink, and I always imagined Percy looking at her with so much adoration she probably hadn’t gotten much of most of her life.

I will admit that I would also have loved to see her and Zahra. Those two would have been such a power-couple, saving the world and making money.

My non-romantic OTP for this character:

Zahra, hands down. They acted like sisters, and I always got the feeling that their bond was stronger than any that could come from just bloodrelation alone. She allowed herself to be so vulnerable and open around Zahra, telling her things she only told others after a long time. I really hope we’ll learn that they stayed close after the campaign.

My unpopular opinion about this character:

I’m ready to be drawn and quartered for this one but...she should have left Trinket somewhere safe more often. He was just no good in combat 99% of the time.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:

send me your birthday!

September - would you rather be inside or outside?

i’m an inside person! the outside drains me tbh

30 - mouse or trackpad?
