#redwhistle

Lyza crouched high in the thick leaves of a tree, waiting quietly as she watched from the darkness. Months since her return. Weeks since she had begun searching. Following tracks, patrolling obvious routes, searching everywhere from Idofront to the Great Fault. But finally, she’d found her.

In a safe clearing of the Goblet of Giants, hardly a stones throw away from her, three small travelers made their camp. A familiar boy, cloaked and shrouded. Clad in hands of wire and metal. An unusual furred creature- walking and talking like a human, but warped by the abyss. Not a monster... but a Hollow? And a young girl, not even a teen. Hardly old enough for the red whistle upon her neck, bright and eager and full of smiles.

Riko. Lyza’s long deserted daughter.

She was exactly like everyone had said. Exactly like Lyza expected her to be. She would have recognized her anywhere. Her father’s eyes and soft cheeks. Her own blond hair and fair skin. Lyza spent quite a deal of time just watching her from afar, until Riko waved off her companions, taking their waterskins and pot and heading off to a nearby stream.

Lyza was still hesitant about all of this, but now was the best chance she had to approach them without the robot or the narehate detecting her. She leaped and skipped through the trees, bouncing from one to another with barely a sound as she closed the distance, until she was only a few meters behind and above her in the branches, sitting casually on a low branch.

She spoke low and sternly at first, announcing her presence calmly before Riko had noticed her. “Don’t be alarmed, but I would appreciate if you did not call for your friends.”

🐡 - How protective do you get about your muse?

Ozen is a big girl and can take care of herself, so I don’t really need to do much. She doesn’t get hate either, so I haven’t had to deal with that at all. However, I do get protective when people depict her in exceedingly sexual ways while dialing down her strength. They either don’t draw her Pins at all, or make them super sparse and barely noticeable for the sake of making her more ‘desirable’. I won’t go on a spiel on how wrong that is on so many fronts, but if someone’s gotta rid a woman of her literal strength that’s actually drawn in canon so they can fap, then that person is weak and should not be anywhere near my muse because that ain’t what this Ozen’s about.

With that said, sex is a really new and daunting concept for my Ozen. It’s unexplored frontier she’s only beginning to dabble into. I love writing it, because it’s delicious character development, but I have to be gentle with her because change stresses her out. She doesn’t show it, since she’s good at weathering stress and withstanding basically all kinds of negative stimulus, but sex makes her vulnerable. As her mun, I definitely feel protective about that. I want her to be happy in this regard, to have a good time and to discover her own body and sexuality, and I couldn’t be happier that she’s doing this with the woman she loves.

“ What’s vore? Some kind of beast deeper in The Abyss?”

“Well sweetie it’s like... I guess you could say some large nether beasts do do something kind of like that, but It’s more like it’s about the victim’s feel--”

HEY, WAIT.

Good reason. :D

When or if I started shipping them: Oh, I ship them! Thanks to, according to a post I made on the 9 Forum back in May 2011, a fanfiction called Childish which can be found on FFN go read it everyone.

My thoughts: Any pairing with 1 has great dynamics. He’s (almost without argument) the most developed character in the entire movie, and it really shows when you try to pair him up with someone else. And when that someone is 7, well, let the good times roll! XD Their personalities are far too alike for comfort — both absolutely sure that their opposing theory of “what’s best” is right, both stubborn and unwilling to back down from a fight, both dirty fighters if need be. Add passion and lust in there — no way would this be a very affectionate pairing — and like I said, let the good times roll.

What makes me happy about them: Pretty much everything. Seeing them together in a picture, or a fanfiction, that really shows off their respective personalities. Theorizing about them. Platonic contemplation.

What makes me sad about them: 1, the most complex character, is also the most misinterpreted one. 7 has her rough spots as well, and more of them than I’d like. Which means that something with a really good premise can go downhill really quickly due to characterization problems.

Things done in fanfiction that annoy me: Again, bad characterization. Narrowing down the field a little…1 practically torturing 7 before she somehow manages to escape Sanctuary. Just. No. I don’t think he’d be above taking a swing at her, or defending himself if she moved first, but torture? No. Overly affectionate moments are also a no, though thankfully I’ve seen this one a lot less often. They are not a loving couple. XD

Things I look for in fanfiction: More fanfiction at all would be nice. XD I’m really not picky. All I ask for is — all together now! — good characterization! …And grammar and spelling, of course.

Who I’d be comfortable with them ending up with, if not each other: Ohhh, boy, here we go. XD For 7: 5, 6, 8, or 9. For 1: 2, 5, 8, or 9. …Think of all the interesting threesome possibilities. O.o

My happily ever after for them: Are you kidding? XDD This is the pairing least likely to have a happily ever after, even if both of them were alive to try at one. Having said that, though, both participants must indeed be alive to have a happily ever after. So 1 being alive would be good. XD

Favorite Non-sexual activity: …I actually can’t picture them hanging around too much together if they aren’t in bed. Semi-good-natured shouting matches are pretty much the only thing I can come up with.
