I’m going Classic since that’s the original one I loved when I was younger. The first character I first fell in love with: Crash Man. Dumb idiot kid with bombs and a fierce temper? Yeah, that how it started. Thanks very much to Dracozombie for enabling that.

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Sunstar/Sungod. I didn’t care much about him and the Stardroids and then like I suddenly did. Even more now that I’ve played Monolith and now have an appreciation for Danmaku Sungod.

The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Proto Man. Like this is mainly pre Archie for me. I NEVER liked Proto Man due to his personality and people just adored him. Archie Comics has since then alleviated this; ESPECIALLY backing him with Tempo, speaking of which...

The character I love that everyone else hates: Quake Woman/Tempo. There’s still a lot of dislike for the “Archie Original Character” and I saw it a lot early on. I’m sure now people have warmed up to her a lot but yeah.

The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Shadow Man. He was super cool, and I fell out of obsessing over him. That’s alleviated a bit, again, thanks to Archie Comics giving him some sort of a better/coherent backstory.

The character I would totally smooch: Tundra Man. Is ANYBODY surprised about this?

Thank you for the ask!!! 

7. What is your favourite sentence/paragraph? Read it to us!

Oh boy. I have so many fics to choose from, so in the interest of saving us time, I’m going to pick my favourite sentence/paragraph from my most recent fic, Parting Gift.

“Humans were so fond of “logic” as a concept. They clung to it desperately as though the moment their grasp loosened “logic” would slip through their fingers, disappearing beneath their feet, lost forever. “Logic” was a source of pride for humans, something they hoisted and toted around like a golden prize. When something or someone didn’t possess “logic” they’d use monikers such as “beast”, “monster”, or “rabid”. To them, anything without “logic” was inhuman, not on their level, as though they were on top of the world and nothing could touch them. As if human “logic” was the golden standard for all living things. “Logic” was nothing more than a measurement created by humans for humans. How arrogant to use their scale on other living creatures and then proclaim loudly that something was below them. After all, what were human measurements and scales to a god except pitiful shackles that bound and constricted?”

This is honestly the first thing I thought of before I started writing this fic. I thought of the opening line about “logic” and Anankos scoffing “Human Logic” as I was making tea before writing. I also love this paragraph because it’s Anankos being a hypocrite. He’s the arrogant one here and his arrogance is showing! Hubris and pride will ultimately be his downfall and in this paragraph he’s definitely being prideful!

12. What head canons will you keep implementing in your fics, even if canon ends up contradicting it?

Already answered in this ask HERE.

14. What trope would you refuse to write even if you were paid to do it?

(from this meme!)

HHONESTLY,. eVERY TIME I GO INTO THE TAG ON AO3 Im just..

The single worst part is that there’s Lan/Hub smut in the fuucjign hUB HIKARI TAG LIKE OF THE 8 FICS IN THAT TAG???? YUo cOME INTO MY HOUSE ???

(From this ask HERE.)

Thank you so much for this ask!!! I’m super happy to see you ask this ship! I’m going to talk about Anankos/Trio just because my headcanons blend together with all three of them.

7 (G). Favourite headcanon trope/idea (Your own or someone else’s)?

My favourite headcanon trope/idea for Anankos/Laslow(Trio) is “Supernatural entity that becomes obsessed/enamoured/possessive with the Regular Humans whether they Want it Or Not.” It works so well with Anankos too since he’s a Fell Dragon and that means all of his logic/rationing is out the window. It’s super niche but it’s one I adore writing and sometimes if you want a Specific Trope sometimes you have to write it yourself.

20 (T). What made you decide to ship them?

A big reason why I ended up shipping them is because of the DLC. I kept thinking about how Human!Anankos picked the Trio up from the Awakening world. Then, when they arrive in Valla they have to fight forces from Dragon!Anankos to get out of there. That dynamic plus my love of the trope stated above and it got me to start shipping Anankos/Trio. (Basically, I needed Possessive dynamic in my fics and Anankos/Trio fit the bill.)

21 (U). Favourite genre for them? (Angst, fluff, etc.)

I like angst! I like the idea of the Trio being Very Drawn Into Anankos but they Know It’s Bad. Yet, like a moth to a flame they can’t entirely stop Anankos and his Smooches.
