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

I’m gonna be real with you fam I don’t actively engage with most of the touhou fandom that much (or any fandom, rly) and when I do it’s usually purely in relation the dumb obscure characters I care about rather than any of the main and/or popular characters. LOL!

I don’t really know a ton about what they’re doing with Reimu out there. Uhhh??? I like when people draw the little differences in of her outfits and appearances between games and don’t just default to what we’d consider the “standard” look. Those little flourishes - something new with her hair, a different kerchief, some extra lacework or embroidery - are always charming details to me.

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

Despise is a really strong word, hahaha. I definitely wouldn’t go that far. I do think that whenever people make “super jaded and irritable stone cold ruthless youkai exterminator” her key personality traits, though, it’s kind of boring and flattening her character? It can be funny for an occasional gag, sure, but there’s also more to her than that.

I will be the first to confess I haven’t actually properly played/dug into the storylines for the games in ages and I’ve never read the various supplementary material in depth so my grasp of her strictly canonical personality is perhaps a bit hazy, but I dunno man.

Yes, she can be a strikingly blunt hardass sometimes and she’s prone to jump to conclusions, but she can also be pretty laid back and chill and FUNNY! She is actually kind of a weirdo and a goofball!! I feel like due to her job as shrine maiden, she is constantly having to play the role of straight man/tsukkomi to an ever increasing list of weirdo gods and youkai. Does it exasperate her sometimes? Absolutely, and understandably so. But I think she stays silly.

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

Last book: I finished Tough Guy by Rachel Reid and it's my favorite so far and I think that's because it has the least amount of hockey in it. Now I'm in the middle of . . . Common Goal and not loving it as much. Also reading The Sicilian Inheritance because it came off hold at the library and also I need to make my brain do something other than HR universe.

Last song: I've been listening nonstop to my Hollanov playlist, the last song was Hudson by the Favors.

Last movie: Death on the Nile 2022 which I did NOT care for.

Last series: I haven't escaped the cottage. But I also did watch the first half of Bridgerton season 4.

Salty or sweet: Both is good 🤝 <- same

Coffee or tea: Coffeeeeeee but I am trying to work through a backlog of tea as well.

Working on: I started a new fic last week and maaaannnnnn the writing muscles are out of shape. I'm not telling you a single thing about it. (Unless someone asks.) (Or unless I've already told you about it.)

1) she definitely gained the ability to grow a cock from wild, rough, and brainlessly fucking Jason. Some kind of eldritch magic corruption.

2) she is always caught off guard when the runt gets dominant but it makes her want to be the filthiest fuck and that’s always a nice release.

3) when she gets too overstimulated and wound up she is more likely to drag him to the nearest surface and sit on his face to calm down

Send me a personal problem of yours on anon and I will try to give you advice in character.

"Hire a better assassin. If you don't have the money..." He shrugs. Not having money kills a lot of people in this world. He would know. "I suppose I can also share some more general tips to better your chances. I will make a list."

ENTRERI'S LIST OF HOW NOT TO BE KILLED:

most importantly: learn how to fight

always carry a sharp rock

exercise. cardio. be in peak running condition at all times

booby trap your house

distrust your friends

change your appearance and move to a different place. tips for changing your appearance: new hairstyle, grow or lose facial hair, wear new fashion, get a tattoo on your face, change genders

learn information about your enemy. the assassin but, more importantly, who hired them. odds are the one hiring is pathetic and weak in their own right and you might be able to outmanuever them. as soon as they themself are in danger, they will cower in retreat, 9 times out of 10. (the assassin is just a professional and will leave you alone after that. they do not care.)

do not give your real name at random inns

DO NOT GIVE YOUR ARCH RIVAL'S NAME AT RANDOM INNS it is embarrassing

running is good. hiding is better

network

do not pray to any gods. they do not care if you suffer. in fact, spit upon their altars

18. characters you want to wrap in a blanket and tell them they’re going to be okay?

So many characters from the books I've been reading lately! But for shared fandom, I would like to do this to Fantine and then also make it true, please.

20. name a song that reminds you heavily of a specific fandom or character.

I know I have been on the record about this before, but every single time that A British Tar from HMS Pinafore come on my shuffle I think of Enjolras and cackle. Yes, sure, the setting is all wrong, but the blend of intense 19th century ~manly~ earnestness mixed with prose that sounds straight out of a Victorian erotic novel is so right. I mean,

His nose should pant and his lip should curl, His cheeks should flame and his brow should furl, His bosom should heave and his heart should glow, And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow.
