For the ask game, I’m gonna take the easy one: Ikrie!

Hell yeah, I was hoping for this one! Thank you so much!

Sexuality Headcanon: Lesbian. I mean, have you seen her? There's just no other way. (Ironically, a blog article in the dark depths of the internet complaining about LGBTQ+ representation in HFW (as in "oh my god it's too much and totally in your face this threatens my straightness"--yeah, I don't know how I ended up there either) pointed her out as the only confirmed and openly gay character in ZD, which is a) factually incorrect and b) a stretch because there's no confirmation whatsoever besides some flirting and major vibes, but I'll take the W.) Gender Headcanon: she/her, but fairly casually. Mostly her gender is "excel at everything, especially abandonment" A ship I have with said character: Aloy/Ikrie, all the way. I quite like Yarra/Ikrie as well, they make for an interesting dynamic. A BROTP I have with said character: Lauvuk. The groundskeeper practically adopted her straight away. Other than that, Talanah (after some initial insecurities wrt her friendship with Aloy). Varga. Erend. Inatut. Kotallo and her would give the Sunwings on top of the base a major headache by involving them in some ridiculous challenges. Guerrilla, just give us her being part of the gang already. A NOTP I have with said character: Any ship of her with a man, no offense to the men. Just not my thing. A random headcanon: She eventually adopts a baby squirrel that's fallen out of tree, raises it and names it Scorcher. Scorcher proceeds to be an absolute pain in the ass and regularly steals small things from other people. General Opinion over said character: She✨That is all. Ask game here!

#feral about her but i'm trying to be domesticated #at least a little #thanks again for the ask! #this was so much fun! #asks #ask game
