#While I'm ranting in the Tags if I was in charge of Casting I'd have Megami33 play Kita

[milliethesillie]

So hear me out but if Bocchi dub ever comes out I'd Petition to Change Kita's First name.

So Ikuyo Kita doesn't translate well or at all as a pun in english and its from the first two volumes I've read its brought up a total of once so what if its instead in Bocchi dub (that may never exist but I hope it does) she's named Itsume Kita

HEAR ME OUT This is the scene

"I hate my name so much! I hid it for so long!

It just sounds like I'm Introducing myself!

ITS-SUME! KITA! YAHOOO!

... from now on my name is Kita Kita"

Hell it even adds to the final Kita Kita joke with Mario's name being Mario Mario

#bocchi the rock! #kita ikuyo #ikuyo kita #kita #bocchi dub #I'm probably the only one who ever made the tag bocchi dub #God I want bocchi dub so bad i don't care if they don't take my suggestion #While I'm ranting in the Tags if I was in charge of Casting I'd have Megami33 play Kita #Why? Her Bocchi covers are fucking bangers #and Kita's the bands singer so it makes sense #the itsume thing has been in the back of my brain for goddamn ever #If i wasn't fucking broke I'd arrange bocchi dub myself

🍒, 🥝,🍈 for the fic ask game

Thanks for sending an ask :D

🍒 What’s your favorite character dynamic to write? (Can be romantic or platonic, specific or general!)

I think that I gravitate towards dynamics that have a lot of emotion and connection to them. Like you've got the relationships that have a lot of history to them. Asta & Yuno are effectively basically twins and their bond runs deep. EraserMic have known each other for 15 years and they share so much baggage and it's fun to explore how that might have drawn them closer together. Devil's Minion (Armand/Daniel) have like an at least 13 year history if not longer depending on which canon you're talking and there's just so much going on there you can explore.

But deep connections can sometimes be something that's swift and drowning almost like Destiel or they grow on each other like weeds after some time and energy like InuKag and that's also fascinating. This is also why I like the League of Villains as found family because I think their ability to trauma bond to each other quickly is a fascinating thing to explore.

I think in general I'm fascinated by how people can come together, can choose each other be it platonic, romantic, etc.... and it's so fun to write characters that have that kind of charge to them

🥝 What’s your favorite trope/AO3 tag to write?

I love writing crossovers, though I don't do it as much as I could. I think it's fun to either swap scenarios or settings to see what happens or combine casts of things to see how they all interact with one another.

I also like to take inspiration from places like Tumblr, LJ, etc...because I always like to write things I think people are looking to read and I like being able to jump from some post to whatever scenario pops into my head. It's why I have a whole series dedicated to all the inspirations I've gotten from Tumblr over the years.

🍈 Who’s your blorbo and what are some of your favorite headcanons/ideas about them that repeatedly show up in your fics? Free pass to rant about blorbo opinions.

Oh I have so many blorbos. I have so much affection for a lot of characters in a lot of things I read and watch. I think my blorbo of all time though was Dean Winchester. He's just so relatable on many levels and you can just explore what's going through that head of his, how trauma might have shaped whatever's going on with him. He also felt very effortless to write even though my SPN fics could have been better if I'd been more into the editing process at the time I wrote them.

The thing I could never get into with him the way a good chunk of fandom seemed to was the incest stuff. I have a brother who's about five years younger than me so to me, Dean and Sam are pretty normal siblings when you take away the trauma bonding. Like that episode where Gabriel shows up the first time "Tall Tales" I think it's called had me on the floor because that was like peak sibling content. The wallet scene reminded me of when I was 10 and my brother was 5 and I would babysit him when he was grounded from the TV and I'd have to get the remote control away from him and put it on top of the fridge.

I also think the ending Dean got in SPN was a bit BS because like I always kind of wanted him to eventually become a kind of Bobby to a new generation. To kind of become hunting adjacent, because I think he never could have fully gotten away from hunting, but I think he'd have liked the grow his found family aspect of that and make little gadgets for other hunters to use. Get him to a healthier relationship with Sam while he's at it, like they seemed to be moving towards at the end of season five where Sam can come and go and live a life outside of hunting, though Sam too would probably never be completely free from it.
