[神なる君と] 天津国星縁尊 (Mikoto) + Final thoughts
Finally!!!!!!! I sacrificed one night’s sleep to finish this route, but I did it! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و
I had originally planned to spread it out over a couple of days, but there was a lot of recap of stuff we already know here, so I got kind of impatient and rushed through some of it. So apologies if some of the minor details are off. I got all the important bits I think.
- Amatsu-kunihoshi-en-no-Mikoto -
Tumblr media
Is it just me or does his silhouette give off a HAIR METAL / 1970s Alice Cooper vibe???
Mikoto is the former God of Kunihoshi Shrine who gave his position over to Sakuya for some reason. He is kind of a comedic/jokester character, but occasionally reveals a deeper and more serious side, much like Yakumo-nii-san.
His route happens if Sakuya chooses to help him grant his wish instead of investigating the school haunting rumours. Her first task is to time-skip slightly into the future, on hoshimatsuri night, to take a message for future-Mikoto. 
After she arrives she sees her future self running along the river searching for Mikoto and crying. Yorihito stops her from talking to her future self, and tells her that Mikoto is under the tree in the shrine. She finds him and passes along the message, which is to ask him if his wish has been granted.
He replies yes, but he wishes he had done a better job and made ‘her’ understand his actions.
Back in the present, she asks Mikoto what that’s all about but he doesn’t want to tell her. The rest of the route is basically her process of figuring out his secrets.
The side arcs in the other routes are briefly recapped here, except each one now reveals something important about Mikoto’s worldview. Following the order that they appear in:
*
I. Yorihito/Nisei
This time Mikoto tells them straightaway that Nisei has travelled here from the past through a time warp, and has to return. Sakuya accepts his views, and he tells her that every beautiful meeting has to eventually end in parting, and that the memories not only tie us to the future, but they also drive us forward... It’s kind of like his ‘going away speech’ in a way, but Sakuya doesn’t know that at this point.
II. The Sanshin incident
Tumblr media
‘YOU no DOGEZA = VERY BEAUTIFUL datta-ze!’ #yuri
The Sanshin tell Sakuya that they sympathise with Mikoto, because he has been on the receiving end of much hate and anger from people whose wishes he wasn’t able to grant. 
Later Sakuya asks him if he hates people, and he turns the question back to her. She replies that people come in many different personalities, and he agrees. He thinks that it’s his misdeed that he wasn’t able to save everyone. But Sakuya feels that he has done nothing wrong - to which he thanks her and says that her kindness has saved him time and again.
III. Aki/Kunugi arc
Tumblr media
‘You...! Be my grrrl.’ #kunugi
This ends in pretty much the same way as in Yakumo’s route. Aki tells Sakuya that things worked out for the best, because love between a human and a supernatural being is bound to end in tragedy. Sakuya realises that there are other alternative endings besides ‘happily ever after’. She ofc thinks of Mikoto,... and so she goes and asks him if he has ever been in love. He tells her that gods have to love everyone and everything equally (including Yorihito and miscroscopic bacteria lol).
Then he tells her that she is very important to him, and that he prays for her happiness.
IV. Fuu-san
After hearing rumours about evil spirit moaning in the old school building, Sakuya wonders if Rei is having stomachaches XD.
Anyway, here Fuu-san again confides in Sakuya about his friend Yuuya, and she wonders if there’s a way to ease his pain. Mikoto says it’s possible to erase his memories, but Fuu-san would refuse to do so. He believes that there are some painful histories that one just has to live with - and surprisingly Sakuya accepts his view. I feel like she is accepting too much in this route XD.
*
.: Going back to Mikoto’s backstory, we already know about the 1000-year-old love story between the miko and the Great Demon from the other routes, but we missed a few key points which are revealed here:
1. The sesshouseki itself is not the Demon’s remains. It’s a fragment of a star that was used to absorb the Demon’s curse/evil energy. And Mikoto is the living embodiment of this stone. 
2. The Demon’s remains are actually buried under the *magical tree* in the yard of the shrine. And his spirit communicates to Sakuya and others through this tree.
3. The 1000-year promise: Before the Demon’s death, Mikoto promised to watch over his remains to prevent the curse from escaping. This would only work for 1000 years, so after that time, Mikoto promised to absorb all the curse energy himself and disappear from the face of the earth.
What actually happened is that 10 years ago on hoshimatsuri night, when Mikoto was supposed fulfil his promise and disappear, he hesitated and started crying under the tree, because he was afraid of death. Child Sakuya came over to comfort him, and ended up in the energy transfer danger zone.
Tumblr media
So, to save her from dying from the curse, Mikoto decided to make her a Goddess 10 years later to build ‘immunity’, and then on hoshimatsuri night transfer all her curse energy back onto himself and disappear as promised. At first he didn’t want to tell her all this, but she’s super しつこい so eventually he told her everything.
Sakuya found herself falling for Mikoto and didn’t want him to disappear, so she asked Yorihito how to prevent his plan from working using her Goddess powers. On hoshimatsuri night, she successfully stops Mikoto from fulfilling his promise, and seals it with a kiss.
Because the curse energy remained in her body, she grew weaker and weaker and died three months later. THE END.
...
Lol j/k.
Tumblr media
Good end: Mikoto can’t get over Sakuya’s death, so 1 year later on hoshimatsuri, he decides to use the same time-travel method (and the power of Sakuya’s amulet) to go back in time and stop her from thwarting his epic disappearance plan. Everyone supports him - except Yakumo, who thinks that Mikoto shouldn’t force his own plan against her will. He wants Mikoto to do what makes them both happy, even if it means defying Fate.
Sooo, Mikoto goes back in time... to 11 years ago, before hoshimatsuri night. He finds child Sakuya on the shrine grounds, and gives her an amulet and sends her away, telling her NOT TO COME HERE TONIGHT. 
...With that taken care of, nighttime comes and he proceeds to fulfil his promise. But to his surprise, Sakuya shows up again - to give him back his amulet and tell him to stop being an #emosadface. He is all like #headpalm #Orz #omgthismustbeFATE.
In that moment he decides that, instead of letting the curse transfer take place this time, he will try to fight it so that no-one has to die. Basically the same thing that Yuzuru did for Yakumo in all his routes = Zzzzzzz (fight the curse while sleeping). At the last moment, he tells Sakuya that he’s going away for a while, but promises to meet again someday.
Tumblr media
...
Loop back to the beginning of the game, except in this new alternative future, 17-year-old Sakuya has a more enlightened view on religion and shittier luck in omikuji. In the shrine, she meets Mikoto once again - and this time she remembers him from her childhood meeting, and he is willing to tell her the whole Kami Naru Kimi to story, with no secrets.
*
[Thoughts] Let me first take a moment to marvel at the coherence of the whole story...... 
...Ok. Moving on.
Mikoto’s route wasn’t as much a tearjerker as I thought it would be. Or maybe I was just too tired/brain-dead to cry at 3am _(:3」∠)_. It also doesn’t feel much like a romance love story. I mean Mikoto was preparing for his *ultimate demise* and in no mood for a relationship for the most part lol. So a lot of Sakuya’s actions/thoughts felt very one-sided.  
It was nice that the recaps of the four side story-arcs were kept short (I guess for the benefit of those who didn’t see all of them? not sure if possible to get to the hidden route without unlocking all four events, but anyway).
Piecing together the info from the other routes, I had some guesses as to what the ‘full picture’ was... but this route totally took it in a different direction than what I was expecting. I kind of figured from Sakuya’s surname (「神」 and 「木」) that she’s the descendant/reincarnate of the spirit who lives in the tree, who must be Mikoto’s old lover from 1000 years ago. Lolol was I wrong about that XDDD - although I think my version would’ve made a more romantic story. ^_~
Overall, I like how the route challenged/changed Mikoto’s views about the impenetrability of Fate. You come away with the feeling of understanding a lot more: why gods exist, the true purpose of prayer, why individual wishes are/aren’t fulfilled, the role of free will, etc.
Tumblr media
‘I have come to show you the Truth... with my really nice hair’ ;)
(It does make me sad that in the good ending version of events, some of the characters probably never got a chance to meet - e.g. Narumi & Mikoto, Yuzuru/Rei and everyone else.)
As I feared, there was no clear explanation for Rei’s existence. In the ending it’s revealed that he is/was a 生霊 (a soul that got separated from a living body), and that after Narumi failed to send him off to the other world during hoshimatsuri, he ended up in hospital and was able to recover his body (and some temporary memory loss) with Aki’s help.
...Which STILL doesn’t explain who he is, and how he landed in this condition, AND in his own ending why he disappeared for 10 years and came back as a living human... Unless I missed something in my haste, but I doubt it. Otomate was probably counting on the fact that nobody would fall in love with Rei so nobody cares. But I want some answers damnit!!
Tumblr media
Also, Yorihito makes a brief appearance here in his human form. #wtf O_o
...This is probably where Yakumo’s catchphrase ‘細かいことは気にしなくていい’ comes in handy. スルーしようと思います...
IN SUMMARY, ranking of routes from favourite to ...less favourite (there were no bad routes, I honestly enjoyed all of them and I thought all the characters were awesome in their own way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯):
Yuzuru > Yakumo > Mikoto >/≃ Narumi ≃ Rei
Ranking of side arcs from fav to less fav.:
Fuu-san > Aki/Kunugi > Sanshin > Yorihito/Nisei
ハイ終わり― +(人*´∀`)+゜:。*゜+
Tumblr media
*
[N.B.] I actually started KamiKimi as a break from Diabolik Lovers More Blood - I’m about 3/4 of the way through Mukami Ruki’s route, and can confirm that this guy has no redeeming features whatsoever. It’s doubtful whether I’ll be able to sit through the rest of his story to get to his (hopefully sweet) ending. At least KamiKimi was a nice world where Sakurai Takahiro’s character is actually ahem *NOT AN ASSHOLE*.
(Low bar, I know, but DLMB challenges my view of common decency every time I open it...)
(Also Mikoto cried/had many emotional outbursts towards the end of the route, which is a side of Sakurai-sensei that I have never heard before. Not sure how I feel tbh. Like Sakuya in the game, I actually prefer his funny/lighthearted persona more.)
Also I’ll probably be busy with exams + school stuff for most of this month, so it would be a good idea to go for more fun/relaxing games that are not so heavy and tragic. 
One recent discovery is an old game by Broccoli called 「恋戦隊 LOVE& PEACE the P.S.P」 , which is based on the Power Rangers concept (all my childhood dreams are coming true...! *≧ω≦*) ... I previewed a chapter or so and it seems absolutely hilarious, although it’s not fully voiced so the reading part will be a P in the A but HIT ME UP YO.
And ofc, there will always be drama CDs to save the day...

(English is not my native language so umm sorry for any occurring mistakes? > <)
*shuffles awkwardly* Hi dear I come bearing writing prompts? *nervous laughter* I swear initially they were meant to be short descriptions BUT EVERYTHING GOT TOTALLY OUT OF HAND BY THE END. MY GOD THEY’RE SO DAMN LONG NOW. YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO THIS IF YOU DON’T WANT TO (you could take all of them, some of them, one of them or NONE OF THEM ok? Totally fine!) so please don’t feel pressured? :) And you’re welcome to put your own spin on the prompts, pass them onto other writers if they’re interested or to collab with someone else! :D
But seriously though you can also just treat them as littles “stories” from me (aka. your humble little anon fan) to you, intended for your amusement instead of writing requests alright? Sorry to bombard you so suddenly with all this LOL. BTW you’ll see mostly they’re Brian’s POV because that’s just how my brain is wired lol it’s been like that since day 1 I CAN’T HELP IT.
BTW the “His Majesty, KING!” series by chateauofmyheart (I think she’s most known for the Queen + Rare Words series and her Tumblr blog is chateauofmymind) is THE fic that completely changed my perspective on gender swap themes. After reading that I was fascinated by how good it can be in the hands of brilliant writers. Hence all you’re reading right now ahahahaha it’s like a floodgate been opened LOL.
Alright? Here we go with the first one - Modern day!AU, Poly!Fem!Queen(King) with supernatural elements? (I’m still gonna use male names and pronouns here to avoid confusion but at the same time it’s also because of I wanna see what female names you’d bestow upon them! Surprise me then? :D) Brian always has a connection with the “spiritual side” since he was a kid, sometimes he sees auras, energies, spirits and even on very rare occasions, deities. But it’s not as glamour as it sounds and he has learned the hard way to keep this solely to himself since no one will believe him. And to pretend to be “normal” is very important since not everything he sees is harmless, he has to find ways to avoid being haunted by evil beings, but it doesn’t always work; More often than not his health or mood is affected or he’s chased and stalked and has terrible nightmares hence the insomnia. By the time he got to college, though things still got really bad every once in a while but it felt like he has finally beginning to have situations under some semblance of control. Strangely, all these seemed to largely improved right after he became friends with Roger, Freddie and John, BUT inconveniently started pining after them real quick. His usual tactics were to keep his distance from the people around him but this time he’s drawn to them, feeling oddly alone when they’re not together; How sad is that? Falling in love for the first time in his life yet knowing there’s just no way it’s gonna end happily, but they don’t need to know that it’s fine he’s used to being the outcast. Although his first meetings with each of them does feel a little unusual? They sure are a weird bunch for example, who would own so many of candles? And why so many talismans as well? (Very beautiful though all seems to be handmade perhaps they’re just into DIY stuffs and craftsmanship?) Also the look they gave him? Gleam in their eyes akin to excitement and awe, almost predatory in a sense? Not to mention all those cryptic sentences and meaningful glances shared between the three. It sounds crazy but sometimes they gave off such strong “witchy” vibes as if they’re actual witches like the ones in the movies or something (NOT the Harry Potter kind but more like, The Craft? But in a good way?), that being said Brian does have this distinct feeling that they’re in on some kind of secret which he’s not a part of and it makes him feel a bit sad and left out, but he hides his feelings well(me: or so he thinks haha we’re all familiar with this trope yeah? MOVING ON LOL). These three are lovely together, but Brian’s afraid of screwing things up so he kept his mouth shut and just took whatever he can get. Plot twist LOL one night after a horrible near-death incident (caused by a horrendous curse aimed directly at him and much later on he learned that somehow it was powerful enough to break through the “protection ring” which Roger, Freddie and John had cast around him, WTH?!), he’s eventually saved by the other three and now he really wants some answers and perhaps the truth. It turns out that they’re all actual witches with different abilities and incredible powers including the oblivious Brian, Roger, Freddie and John had known this their entire life and all had proper training except for Brian who isn’t from a witchcraft family. Basically the other three have being protecting and guarding him ever since they’ve met (even though he doesn’t know a damn thing about his own gifts, they were very adamant that he belongs to them and their own “coven”). The four of them actually formed one of the most powerful witch coven ever and the curse was cast by another malicious one that’s jealous and afraid of how powerful they’re going to be once Brian realizes his own gifts, so they tried to get rid of him first. Cue a happy Poly!Fem!OT4 ending and a love confession + getting together yeah? :D And they all work on helping Brian to develop and harness his own powers. Love youuuu. (BTW I’m “obsessed” with Gothic aesthetics and vibes. This seems to be the perfect universe for this type of element to shine right? :D Literally everything ranging from character styles to witchcraft tools could be incorporate with it but I don’t think I did a good job in describing. Orz)
And off to the second prompt now! Shall we? :) Modern day!AU, Poly!Fem!Queen(King)? (Or no gender swap is fine too! Again I’m still using male names and pronouns here same reasons as above), It’s around 20:00 when Brian exited his plane. This past one month period of astronomy conference had been an opportunity of a life time and literally one of his biggest dreams. It’s a huge honor for him to be able to participate but after being away from his three lovers for so long, he does miss them terribly; The schedule of the conference is quite hectic and irregular with very little down time though the four of them do try to facetime or skype each other as often as they can, it still is nothing like being with each other in person, not to mention they’re all busy and more often than not had to resort to just texting in their group chat. His heart now flutters happily thinking about home and them. Just as when he’s about to call for a taxi someone’s hand came up around his waist – it’s John! And apparently John had arranged in advance for some people to come and take care of Brian’s luggage, Him however, remains firmly tucked by Brian’s side. Though they’re both not too keen on PDA Brian finds the urge to kiss him incredibly strong right now. John seems to be the same considering the heat in his eyes and if his smirk is anything to go by - “Wanna go for a ride? Our new car’s pretty neat.” “The one that Roger picked?” “Yeah.” “He agreed that you can drive it?” “Well he’s going to have to since the car keys’ being nicked.” “Oh my god John you stole Roger’s car keys?!” “It’s OUR car so technically it’s not stealing.” TBH John’s expression right now is kinda turning him on okay calm down deep breath they’re still in public god damn it. John proceed to guided Brian towards their ride and it is indeed a beautiful car. While John drove Brian asked Roger and Freddie’s whereabouts and got a mysterious smile and a vague “you’ll see” instead. It’s getting quite late and there’s not much traffic on the road so John might be speeding up a bit to enjoy the thrill. Normally Brian would fret over this but now he’s just happy, content and relaxed after coming home and reuniting with his lovers. He even let out an excited little shout and rolled down the window a bit to enjoy the night breeze when John sped up, which John beamed at him. “This isn’t our way home?” “We’re not going home yet.” “And are you gonna tell me where we’re heading?” “You’ll see.” Again with that cryptic-John-smile. They continue to drive up and deep into the mountains and eventually stoping at a lovely camping site with an elegant looking villa, John explained that they’ve booked this whole area exclusively for the next couple of days; They’ve missed him and all wanted to spend some alone time with each other. The weather is nice so it’s a clear starry night sky above and there’s a small bonfire crackling along with Roger and Freddie’s laughter, who are currently sitting beside it. Brian leaned over to John, planting a chaste kiss on his lips and whispered his thanks but apparently John had something else in mind. As soon as Brian began to pull back John shot out his hands and tugged on Brian’s hair just the way he knows how he likes it, that forced a surprised whimper out of Brian’s mouth and John took the opportunity to practically devour him with hungry kisses and tongue. Things heat up fast and Brian’s soft moans quickly became louder as John wasted no time opening up his shirt, caressing all over his chest and pinching his nipples. Brian let out a high-pitched yelp as John bit on his earlobe suddenly and at the same time dipped his hand into his underwear. Then Freddie showed up knocking disapprovingly on the car door window: “Tsk tsk starting without us already? That’s rude darling!.” Hearing this John let go of Brian’s lips, beamed at Freddie and opened the car door but didn’t retrieve his hand. Brian, now flushed and disheveled, looked up and gave Freddie a sheepish smile but abruptly let out another whimper as John started moving his fingers. He bit his lips in embarrassment, trying to contain his noise but quickly released them as John growled, demanding to hear his voice. Seeing this Freddie smirked and quickly bent down, grabbing Brian’s face and pulling him into another round of passionate and possessive kisses, full of teeth and tongue. “Oi! Stealing my car now John?! Wanker.” Roger appeared scowling but John just laughed and so does Freddie, letting go of Brian’s lips. Brian blinked a few times, willing his now distracted brain to focus on locating Roger and wordlessly held out his hands, beckoning him closer. Roger moved nearer and hummed his appreciation at the current sight on display, taking hold of both of Brian’s wrists with one hand, ran his other one over Brian’s exposed chest and suddenly pinched his nipple perfectly in time with John, who’s fingers just did something amazing inside Brian’s underwear. Brian moaned loudly and arched his back, feeling his orgasm approaching embarrassingly fast but soon let out a confused whimper when he felt John retrieving his touches. Roger laughed, nuzzled behind his ears and growled, “Only if you beg prettily enough.” Then he tugged him up and gestured towards the villa. “Let’s go and make good use of that giant bed.” Freddie nodded, agreeing with Roger, eyes drinking in the sight in front of him and licked his lips. “I’ll put out the bonfire then. Don’t start anything fun without me!” He kissed Brian once more, heatedly and full of promises of more to come, bit his lips playfully and quickly head towards the fire. “I was gonna make him come once before we go inside but your idea is quite tempting.” John smirked at Roger. “Will you do as Roger says love? Beg prettily for us? Should we allow you to come at all?” “Pleasepleaseplease.” Brian could only whimper, already feeling the familiar heavenly float that could only come from being cared for by his lovers. “Good boy. We’re gonna take such good care of you now, you can let go.” Roger began running his hand through Brian’s hair alongside with John, waiting for Freddie to return. Cue a steamy, sexy and loving Poly!Fem!(or not fem)OT4 night yeah? And there may or may not be a huge jacuzzi in the villa that they all made good use of. <3333
Okay now prompt number 3 is the standard type that one usually gets in their askbox if a writer is open for requests - Your take on in the Poly!Queen universe how would Freddie persuaded/convinced/forced?(XD) Brian to play harp for Love of My Life (and why Brian specifically? Besides all the rational reasons for him to be that person, you might be able to come up with something that’s outside the box? :D) and how the whole “Brian eventually constructed the song from piano onto acoustic guitar for live performances” business came about? Do you ever wonder why it’s not Freddie on the piano playing and singing like what he’s done with other songs? Or why not Brian on the piano while Freddie sings like the beginning of their live performances for Save Me? (AGAIN besides all the rational reasons behind it I’m still interested in your take. :P Have you read that Brian’s interview in which he says he thinks Freddie sees him as his own personal Jimi Hendrix and basically said that they’re gonna do this together? And those early year interviews regarding their album A Night at the Opera in which Freddie said he’s gonna make Brian play the harp until his hands drop off LOL and how Freddie describe the harp as the big thingy that angels play? Yeah Freddie we know that Brian’s your angel and SOUL BROTHER ahhhh I’m making myself emotional now QQ)
Ready for prompt number 4? Last one for now haha I think my brain is drying up lol. It just shows how amazing writers are! I salute you! You are wonderful. <333 Poly!Queen? Hot Space!Era (AUish)?, starting with them having a really rough time in the studio and it had been going on for quite a while (Prenter’s presence and words definitely didn’t help. It only gets worse and for some reason Brian has this feeling that he’s been singled out as target) and a particularly nasty fight broke out one day and even more unfortunate is that the fight got personal. And of course it has something to do with the infamous diss track: Back Chat (the fandom seems to think this song is aimed at Brian? though we will never know the truth ummm), Brian left the studio in the end (bitterly he denies the voices in his head calling him a coward for running away. He just wanted some fresh air, and maybe some alcohol in a bar that his bandmates do not frequent so he wouldn’t be found). Somehow, a band that’s also on the rise of fame managed to track him down while he was trying to numb himself quickly by getting plastered. They then offered a pretty sweet deal of him leaving Queen (“Since they don’t seem to love you anymore.” One of them murmured softly to him and hearing this is like been stabbed through the heart.) and joining them instead, not just as the song writer and lead guitarist but also as the lead vocalist of the band, basically saying that he could have everything; Strangely, it turns out that they actually had some “inside information” regarding of what’s been going on in Queen and had been following for a while, all of them keen on taking Brian’s side. Through the drunken fog in his brain his heart sank. Queen has already established the reputation of being a tight unit especially after their success, generally people respect their close bond with each other so there hasn’t been any “headhunting” propositions for a VERY long time; The fact of it appearing again now out of all times only brought out senses of dread, thoughts immediately heading to a dark place in which all the worst-case scenarios resides: is this actually his bandmates asking him to leave through a third party? Are they so fed up with him that they couldn’t even stand to break the news in person? Is this them breaking up with him? He’s suddenly so cold and dizzy that he started swaying unsteadily, the band then quickly offered to bring him back to their own brand-new recording studio for a tour and maybe some rest. Feeling drunk and resigned Brian just watched silently with half lidded eyes as they maneuvered him out of his seat. As they were about to usher him out of the bar suddenly all motion stopped as the band abruptly came face to face with Roger (eyes narrowed and fists balled, obviously fuming), Freddie (seemingly nonchalant with raised eyebrow but his coiled muscles as if ready for a fight totally says otherwise) and John (his face somehow even more unreadable than usual, eyes glinting ominously). Sensing the atmosphere shift, those who were around Brian all collectively took a step back and for some unknown reason, a few guilty looks appeared on some of their faces. Brian started swaying again without the support and Freddie quickly appeared besides Brian, wrapping tightly around him and helped carrying his weight. However, still feeling angry and devasted Brian tried to wriggle out of his embrace but found himself drunk and too slow and did not have the strength at to pry open Freddie’s “iron grip” at all (yeah how could he forget that Freddie is in fact a damn good athlete and a boxer, John also joined him in the gym these days these two often had great fun together). Sensing Brian’s struggle Freddie only wordlessly tightens his hold; Brian eventually gave up trying to get free after a few attempts instead just bit his lips (nervous habit kicking in now) and looked away, unwilling to face his three bandmates and lovers. “Where the hell do you think you’re taking OUR guitarist to?” Roger snarled, also coming up besides Freddie to help supporting Brian. After a quick check up on him, he frowned when he found that Brian’s skin is cold and clammy. “It’s great that you guys want to look out for OUR Brimi, but we’ll take it from here now.” There’s a storm brewing behind Freddie’s eyes, dismissal clear in his voice. Yet in the same time he’s very mindful of the drunk Brian now stiffly resides in his and Roger’s arms, careful to not cause him anymore physical discomfort. “It seems that a certain rat has been feeding you all kinds of information on us? Things that he’s not supposed to pry and definitely not supposed to blab about?” With a dark edge to his voice, John stepped forward, staring down at the few guilty faces in front of him, smiling cold and sharp. “Well he’s not around anymore, make of that what you will.” Slowly Brian blinked up at John through his drunken haze in surprise, it has to be Prenter that they’re talking about, right? But how— “Let’s get back to the hotel, Bri’s not feeling so well.” Roger grunted, tugging the other three out of the bar impatiently, his hold on Brian is steadfast and unwavering. “Come on guys, get in the car.” “Please come back with us Brimi? We know that you’re still hurting but I promise you, we’re gonna get through this together, alright?” Well now that’s just unfair, Freddie’s bringing out his nickname now in that soft tone AND looking at him like he’s something precious, really not fair at all. Brian could only nod, not trusting his voice yet but Freddie beamed brightly at him. “I’m sorry, baby. We’ll all have a long talk and fill you in on the details of Prenter after you get some rest okay?.” Now that’s just cheating. They’re in the car now and John’s petting his hair oh so gently, expertly lulling him to sleep. Cue the OT4!boys have a long hard talk about EVERYTHING and their relationship that involves lots of shouting, bitching, bickering, crying, apologizing and making up! HAPPY ENDINGS HELL YEAH and the other three explained how the whole Prenter thing came to light and with evidence, they fired him immediately. Also John may or may not have “convinced” (“I’d say threatened is more like it.” Roger snickered.) the other band’s manager to give up the location of the bar that they had sooo enthusiastically called him from, exclaiming Brian May’s about to quit Queen and join them and that they were trying to bring him back to the studio now.
I hope these brightened your day? Maybe if I’m lucky enough they could inspire you a bit? Perhaps they could be accepted as your writing prompts? :P Anyway I love you! Have a beautiful day and life hon. <333
****
Gosh thank you so much for submitting this anon! I really like them and I feel like we could add a lot to them if you wanted to speak to me about your ideas, so shoot me a private dm, yeah?
Also, you have a surprise coming for you in the next few days so stay vigilant of that!

BTW the “His Majesty, KING!” series by chateauofmyheart (I think she’s most known for the Queen + Rare Words series and her Tumblr blog is chateauofmymind) is THE fic that completely changed my perspective on gender swap themes. After reading that I was fascinated by how good it can be in the hands of brilliant writers. Hence all you’re reading right now ahahahaha it’s like a floodgate been opened LOL.
Alright? Here we go with the first one -
Modern day!AU, Poly!Fem!Queen(King) with supernatural elements? (I’m still gonna use male names and pronouns here to avoid confusion but at the same time it’s also because of I wanna see what female names you’d bestow upon them! Surprise me then? :D) Brian always has a connection with the “spiritual side” since he was a kid, sometimes he sees auras, energies, spirits and even on very rare occasions, deities. But it's not as glamour as it sounds and he has learned the hard way to keep this solely to himself since no one will believe him. And to pretend to be "normal" is very important since not everything he sees is harmless, he has to find ways to avoid being haunted by evil beings, but it doesn't always work; More often than not his health or mood is affected or he's chased and stalked and has terrible nightmares hence the insomnia.
By the time he got to college, though things still got really bad every once in a while but it felt like he has finally beginning to have situations under some semblance of control. Strangely, all these seemed to largely improved right after he became friends with Roger, Freddie and John, BUT inconveniently started pining after them real quick. His usual tactics were to keep his distance from the people around him but this time he’s drawn to them, feeling oddly alone when they’re not together; How sad is that? Falling in love for the first time in his life yet knowing there’s just no way it’s gonna end happily, but they don't need to know that it's fine he's used to being the outcast. Although his first meetings with each of them does feel a little unusual? They sure are a weird bunch for example, who would own so many of candles? And why so many talismans as well? (Very beautiful though all seems to be handmade perhaps they’re just into DIY stuffs and craftsmanship?) Also the look they gave him? Gleam in their eyes akin to excitement and awe, almost predatory in a sense? Not to mention all those cryptic sentences and meaningful glances shared between the three.
It sounds crazy but sometimes they gave off such strong "witchy" vibes as if they're actual witches like the ones in the movies or something (NOT the Harry Potter kind but more like, The Craft? But in a good way?), that being said Brian does have this distinct feeling that they're in on some kind of secret which he's not a part of and it makes him feel a bit sad and left out, but he hides his feelings well(me: or so he thinks haha we’re all familiar with this trope yeah? MOVING ON LOL). These three are lovely together, but Brian’s afraid of screwing things up so he kept his mouth shut and just took whatever he can get.
Plot twist LOL one night after a horrible near-death incident (caused by a horrendous curse aimed directly at him and much later on he learned that somehow it was powerful enough to break through the “protection ring” which Roger, Freddie and John had cast around him, WTH?!), he's eventually saved by the other three and now he really wants some answers and perhaps the truth.
It turns out that they're all actual witches with different abilities and incredible powers including the oblivious Brian, Roger, Freddie and John had known this their entire life and all had proper training except for Brian who isn't from a witchcraft family. Basically the other three have being protecting and guarding him ever since they've met (even though he doesn’t know a damn thing about his own gifts, they were very adamant that he belongs to them and their own “coven”). The four of them actually formed one of the most powerful witch coven ever and the curse was cast by another malicious one that's jealous and afraid of how powerful they're going to be once Brian realizes his own gifts, so they tried to get rid of him first.
Cue a happy Poly!Fem!OT4 ending and a love confession + getting together yeah? :D And they all work on helping Brian to develop and harness his own powers. Love youuuu. (BTW I’m “obsessed” with Gothic aesthetics and vibes. This seems to be the perfect universe for this type of element to shine right? :D Literally everything ranging from character styles to witchcraft tools could be incorporate with it but I don’t think I did a good job in describing. Orz)
And off to the second prompt now! Shall we? :)
Modern day!AU, Poly!Fem!Queen(King)? (Or no gender swap is fine too! Again I’m still using male names and pronouns here same reasons as above), It’s around 20:00 when Brian exited his plane. This past one month period of astronomy conference had been an opportunity of a life time and literally one of his biggest dreams. It’s a huge honor for him to be able to participate but after being away from his three lovers for so long, he does miss them terribly; The schedule of the conference is quite hectic and irregular with very little down time though the four of them do try to facetime or skype each other as often as they can, it still is nothing like being with each other in person, not to mention they’re all busy and more often than not had to resort to just texting in their group chat. His heart now flutters happily thinking about home and them.
Just as when he’s about to call for a taxi someone’s hand came up around his waist – it’s John! And apparently John had arranged in advance for some people to come and take care of Brian’s luggage, Him however, remains firmly tucked by Brian’s side. Though they’re both not too keen on PDA Brian finds the urge to kiss him incredibly strong right now. John seems to be the same considering the heat in his eyes and if his smirk is anything to go by -
“Wanna go for a ride? Our new car’s pretty neat.”
“The one that Roger picked?”
“Yeah.”
“He agreed that you can drive it?”
“Well he’s going to have to since the car keys’ being nicked.”
“Oh my god John you stole Roger’s car keys?!”
“It’s OUR car so technically it’s not stealing.” TBH John’s expression right now is kinda turning him on okay calm down deep breath they’re still in public god damn it.
John proceed to guided Brian towards their ride and it is indeed a beautiful car. While John drove Brian asked Roger and Freddie’s whereabouts and got a mysterious smile and a vague “you’ll see” instead. It’s getting quite late and there’s not much traffic on the road so John might be speeding up a bit to enjoy the thrill. Normally Brian would fret over this but now he’s just happy, content and relaxed after coming home and reuniting with his lovers. He even let out an excited little shout and rolled down the window a bit to enjoy the night breeze when John sped up, which John beamed at him.
“This isn’t our way home?”
“We’re not going home yet.”
“And are you gonna tell me where we’re heading?”
“You’ll see.” Again with that cryptic-John-smile.
They continue to drive up and deep into the mountains and eventually stoping at a lovely camping site with an elegant looking villa, John explained that they’ve booked this whole area exclusively for the next couple of days; They’ve missed him and all wanted to spend some alone time with each other. The weather is nice so it’s a clear starry night sky above and there’s a small bonfire crackling along with Roger and Freddie’s laughter, who are currently sitting beside it. Brian leaned over to John, planting a chaste kiss on his lips and whispered his thanks but apparently John had something else in mind.
As soon as Brian began to pull back John shot out his hands and tugged on Brian’s hair just the way he knows how he likes it, that forced a surprised whimper out of Brian’s mouth and John took the opportunity to practically devour him with hungry kisses and tongue. Things heat up fast and Brian’s soft moans quickly became louder as John wasted no time opening up his shirt, caressing all over his chest and pinching his nipples. Brian let out a high-pitched yelp as John bit on his earlobe suddenly and at the same time dipped his hand into his underwear. Then Freddie showed up knocking disapprovingly on the car door window: “Tsk tsk starting without us already? That’s rude darling!.” Hearing this John let go of Brian’s lips, beamed at Freddie and opened the car door but didn’t retrieve his hand. Brian, now flushed and disheveled, looked up and gave Freddie a sheepish smile but abruptly let out another whimper as John started moving his fingers. He bit his lips in embarrassment, trying to contain his noise but quickly released them as John growled, demanding to hear his voice. Seeing this Freddie smirked and quickly bent down, grabbing Brian’s face and pulling him into another round of passionate and possessive kisses, full of teeth and tongue. “Oi! Stealing my car now John?! Wanker.” Roger appeared scowling but John just laughed and so does Freddie, letting go of Brian’s lips. Brian blinked a few times, willing his now distracted brain to focus on locating Roger and wordlessly held out his hands, beckoning him closer. Roger moved nearer and hummed his appreciation at the current sight on display, taking hold of both of Brian’s wrists with one hand, ran his other one over Brian’s exposed chest and suddenly pinched his nipple perfectly in time with John, who’s fingers just did something amazing inside Brian’s underwear. Brian moaned loudly and arched his back, feeling his orgasm approaching embarrassingly fast but soon let out a confused whimper when he felt John retrieving his touches. Roger laughed, nuzzled behind his ears and growled, “Only if you beg prettily enough.” Then he tugged him up and gestured towards the villa. “Let’s go and make good use of that giant bed.” Freddie nodded, agreeing with Roger, eyes drinking in the sight in front of him and licked his lips. “I’ll put out the bonfire then. Don’t start anything fun without me!” He kissed Brian once more, heatedly and full of promises of more to come, bit his lips playfully and quickly head towards the fire. “I was gonna make him come once before we go inside but your idea is quite tempting.” John smirked at Roger. “Will you do as Roger says love? Beg prettily for us? Should we allow you to come at all?” “Pleasepleaseplease.” Brian could only whimper, already feeling the familiar heavenly float that could only come from being cared for by his lovers. “Good boy. We’re gonna take such good care of you now, you can let go.” Roger began running his hand through Brian’s hair alongside with John, waiting for Freddie to return.
Cue a steamy, sexy and loving Poly!Fem!(or not fem)OT4 night yeah? And there may or may not be a huge jacuzzi in the villa that they all made good use of. <3333
Okay now prompt number 3 is the standard type that one usually gets in their askbox if a writer is open for requests - Your take on in the Poly!Queen universe how would Freddie persuaded/convinced/forced?(XD) Brian to play harp for Love of My Life (and why Brian specifically? Besides all the rational reasons for him to be that person, you might be able to come up with something that’s outside the box? :D) and how the whole “Brian eventually constructed the song from piano onto acoustic guitar for live performances” business came about? Do you ever wonder why it’s not Freddie on the piano playing and singing like what he’s done with other songs? Or why not Brian on the piano while Freddie sings like the beginning of their live performances for Save Me? (AGAIN besides all the rational reasons behind it I’m still interested in your take. :P Have you read that Brian’s interview in which he says he thinks Freddie sees him as his own personal Jimi Hendrix and basically said that they’re gonna do this together? And those early year interviews regarding their album A Night at the Opera in which Freddie said he’s gonna make Brian play the harp until his hands drop off LOL and how Freddie describe the harp as the big thingy that angels play? Yeah Freddie we know that Brian’s your angel and SOUL BROTHER ahhhh I’m making myself emotional now QQ)
Ready for prompt number 4? Last one for now haha I think my brain is drying up lol. It just shows how amazing writers are! I salute you! You are wonderful. <333
Poly!Queen? Hot Space!Era (AUish)?, starting with them having a really rough time in the studio and it had been going on for quite a while (Prenter’s presence and words definitely didn’t help. It only gets worse and for some reason Brian has this feeling that he’s been singled out as target) and a particularly nasty fight broke out one day and even more unfortunate is that the fight got personal. And of course it has something to do with the infamous diss track: Back Chat (the fandom seems to think this song is aimed at Brian? though we will never know the truth ummm), Brian left the studio in the end (bitterly he denies the voices in his head calling him a coward for running away. He just wanted some fresh air, and maybe some alcohol in a bar that his bandmates do not frequent so he wouldn’t be found). Somehow, a band that’s also on the rise of fame managed to track him down while he was trying to numb himself quickly by getting plastered. They then offered a pretty sweet deal of him leaving Queen (“Since they don’t seem to love you anymore.” One of them murmured softly to him and hearing this is like been stabbed through the heart.) and joining them instead, not just as the song writer and lead guitarist but also as the lead vocalist of the band, basically saying that he could have everything; Strangely, it turns out that they actually had some "inside information" regarding of what's been going on in Queen and had been following for a while, all of them keen on taking Brian's side. Through the drunken fog in his brain his heart sank. Queen has already established the reputation of being a tight unit especially after their success, generally people respect their close bond with each other so there hasn’t been any “headhunting” propositions for a VERY long time; The fact of it appearing again now out of all times only brought out senses of dread, thoughts immediately heading to a dark place in which all the worst-case scenarios resides: is this actually his bandmates asking him to leave through a third party? Are they so fed up with him that they couldn’t even stand to break the news in person? Is this them breaking up with him? He’s suddenly so cold and dizzy that he started swaying unsteadily, the band then quickly offered to bring him back to their own brand-new recording studio for a tour and maybe some rest. Feeling drunk and resigned Brian just watched silently with half lidded eyes as they maneuvered him out of his seat. As they were about to usher him out of the bar suddenly all motion stopped as the band abruptly came face to face with Roger (eyes narrowed and fists balled, obviously fuming), Freddie (seemingly nonchalant with raised eyebrow but his coiled muscles as if ready for a fight totally says otherwise) and John (his face somehow even more unreadable than usual, eyes glinting ominously). Sensing the atmosphere shift, those who were around Brian all collectively took a step back and for some unknown reason, a few guilty looks appeared on some of their faces. Brian started swaying again without the support and Freddie quickly appeared besides Brian, wrapping tightly around him and helped carrying his weight. However, still feeling angry and devasted Brian tried to wriggle out of his embrace but found himself drunk and too slow and did not have the strength at to pry open Freddie’s “iron grip” at all (yeah how could he forget that Freddie is in fact a damn good athlete and a boxer, John also joined him in the gym these days these two often had great fun together). Sensing Brian’s struggle Freddie only wordlessly tightens his hold; Brian eventually gave up trying to get free after a few attempts instead just bit his lips (nervous habit kicking in now) and looked away, unwilling to face his three bandmates and lovers.
“Where the hell do you think you’re taking OUR guitarist to?” Roger snarled, also coming up besides Freddie to help supporting Brian. After a quick check up on him, he frowned when he found that Brian’s skin is cold and clammy.
“It’s great that you guys want to look out for OUR Brimi, but we’ll take it from here now.” There’s a storm brewing behind Freddie’s eyes, dismissal clear in his voice. Yet in the same time he’s very mindful of the drunk Brian now stiffly resides in his and Roger’s arms, careful to not cause him anymore physical discomfort.
“It seems that a certain rat has been feeding you all kinds of information on us? Things that he’s not supposed to pry and definitely not supposed to blab about?” With a dark edge to his voice, John stepped forward, staring down at the few guilty faces in front of him, smiling cold and sharp. “Well he’s not around anymore, make of that what you will.” Slowly Brian blinked up at John through his drunken haze in surprise, it has to be Prenter that they’re talking about, right? But how—
“Let’s get back to the hotel, Bri’s not feeling so well.” Roger grunted, tugging the other three out of the bar impatiently, his hold on Brian is steadfast and unwavering. “Come on guys, get in the car.”
“Please come back with us Brimi? We know that you’re still hurting but I promise you, we’re gonna get through this together, alright?” Well now that’s just unfair, Freddie’s bringing out his nickname now in that soft tone AND looking at him like he’s something precious, really not fair at all. Brian could only nod, not trusting his voice yet but Freddie beamed brightly at him.
“I’m sorry, baby. We’ll all have a long talk and fill you in on the details of Prenter after you get some rest okay?.” Now that’s just cheating. They’re in the car now and John’s petting his hair oh so gently, expertly lulling him to sleep.
Cue the OT4!boys have a long hard talk about EVERYTHING and their relationship that involves lots of shouting, bitching, bickering, crying, apologizing and making up! HAPPY ENDINGS HELL YEAH and the other three explained how the whole Prenter thing came to light and with evidence, they fired him immediately. Also John may or may not have “convinced” (“I’d say threatened is more like it.” Roger snickered.) the other band’s manager to give up the location of the bar that they had sooo enthusiastically called him from, exclaiming Brian May’s about to quit Queen and join them and that they were trying to bring him back to the studio now.
I hope these brightened your day? Maybe if I’m lucky enough they could inspire you a bit? Perhaps they could be accepted as your writing prompts? :P Anyway I love you! Have a beautiful day and life hon. <333
+++
First off, you don't have to apologize for any errors, english isn't my first language either and I didn't even notice any errors; your english is completely fine
Second, those prompts are lovely and I might write something for them once I have access to my laptop again (so far I'm only writing on my phone and while that works, it's not ideal) because it would end up a bit longer than what usually write for snippets.
Thanl you so much for this lovely, I really enjoyed this!

「 Interview with a Mun 」  ⇢ RK Anniversary Solo ( + 5 SP ! ) ⇢ featuring all muses that Jen has ever had in Rookies
“ Who is ready for things to get buck-wild?! ”
Yuju: hi! this is yuzu and you’re watching choi’s choice! Mun: liiiiieeees Jkook: liar liar panties on fire! Jieun: oh lord- Soyeon: this is madness- why do I have to be here again? Yuju: now now guys! we’re here to interview Jen! Jackson: ohhhh this will be fun! Mun: I’m scared- Yuju: well first of- maybe Jieun eonni should have a go! she was the first, right? Jieun: ye the first and the oldest-  Mun: pfff Jieun: you’re my age! Don’t you dare laugh woman! Mun: I ain’t said nuffin~~~ Jieun: *sigh* anyway! It’s been five years huh? You were in rookies for majority from it’s opening time, no? Mun: you could say that yes. I think I joined sometime.... january 2014? right after the first season of the mgas Jieun: and daehyun’s mun dragged you in Mun: ohhhh yes he did. he tried to make me join even earlier, in december already when it just opened. I’d been complaining to him how bad things were for me in indie rp. I’d never been in a closed directory before at that time and I was kind of scared I’d lose contact to all the folks I was writing with by limiting myself. Jieun: buuuut you found your way in quickly, no? Mun: I guess you could say that xD still kind of funny to me that your first collab partner was a yoongi when I didn’t even rly care bout bts back then.... Jackson: we’re getting off topic! Mun: okay okay yes. sure. I get it. so yeah... Jieun was around for a while... I was very bad at handling multiple muses back then but some folks talked me into bringing jackson to life- well he was Tao on his first run before I decided to change his face when I brought him in during his second run xP Jackson: *sheds manly tears* the abandonment Mun: oh come oooon! you got your happy ending! Jackson: thaaat’s true! even if I had to suffer through a bisexual crisis Jieun & Soyeon: *rolls eyes* Jackson: oh look who’s rolling her eyes there! the girl who took my spot! Soyeon: wanna pick a fight?! Mun: there there kids. no fighting~ Soyeon: tch Jieun: sooooo the little spitfire was your third muse, right? She ultimately won out against Jackson and you brought her in? Mun: yup! She was a pretty consistent muse even if I went through 4 face changes for her orz First Jimin from AOA, then Heeo from 4ten and Chaeyeong from Twice- dunno the order anymore xD I think first Chaeyeong and then Heeo? Either way I settled on Soyeon eventually and was happy with that! She was honestly a pretty controversial muse. I clashed on alot with her but I still love her dearly ♥ Soyeon: tch, so cheesy Mun: you’re still smiling though~ Soyeon: ye ye whatevs Jieun: and for a good span of one- two years you were doing fine, right? Mun: yup! and then rookies allowed folks to have a third muse! I still remember how mira jumped right at me to tell me the news xD she knew how many muses I had swirling around my brain but I wasn’t sure if I could handle another one... JKook: and then there was me! The meme son! Mun: yeah the meme son xD my sweet prodigy photographer~ JKook: heh. kek Yuju: kek Jieun: can you two kids stop with the gamer stuff for just one sec?! Mun: I think it’s funny uwu jeongguk in general was a muse that made me roll on the floor with laughter. I love and adore him for the sole reason he didn’t want to be an idol at all. He was set on photography and had his own issues with his dad. even after I angsted him up (and lowkey gave him a bisexual crisis as well)  JKook: I STILL HATE YOU FOR THAT! Mun: you loooove me! Anyway! I was doing well juggling three muses for a while but then things... changed around me. I was moving on mentally. Last year summer I just felt... dis-attached to everything and everyone. I knew I needed space and time to just... clear my head, move on to new adventures and find myself again. I’d been a personality here for so long with a reputation I felt no longer fitted me. So I did what I had to and I... left ^^; Yuju: And y’stayed away for a whole of 8 months, almost a whole year. So I’m here to ask ya the golden question: why did ya come back? Mun: first of all- the bro-squad chat. I was still kind of in there here and there and one of my ooc friends is in it too so I was never not rly up to date with what was happening? And then I watched pd48 with a friend and it gave me muse for the idol theme again. I had my muse and I just needed a face. I picked Yuju at first but I fell in love with Yena throughout the show and she fits perfectly to my muse. So here I am with this little whirlwind~ back on stage for a good show! Yuju: you got it! Jieun: I’m curious though- Jackson: not just you, Jieun. Jieun: if you could bring one of us back? Would you do it? And who would it be? Mun: Jieun’s arc in rookies is over. Bub you’re happy with your career and your life right now. You function as an npc for Yuju anyway since you guys are cousins. Jackson your arc is over too. You’re happy and big in the model business right now. Jackson: you got it~ Mun: dork xD Soyeon is happy as well. She’s successfully making her degree at university and has been working on building up her own studio to teach kids martial arts. So.... JKook: me? Why- Mun: I feel like I left your story unresolved in many ways. I always had a lot of fun writing for you. If given the chance I’d like to explore it a bit more. Yuju: but for now all yer attention’s on meeee, right?! JKook: YAH! Yuju: >P fyte me! JKook: you wanna go?! Mun: xD the fact I made the two of you best friends might make it difficult for me to play you both out in rookies but I can’t say I wouldn’t like to give it a try ^^ Yuju: so comin’ back here, and considerin’ all that’s happened during the past five years- what would yer final words be to sum up how y’feel bout rookies?! Mun: I’d have to say that it’s been wild, it is wild and it’s going to be wild for many years to come~ I wish people would be less competitive and see the rp for what it is: a place to write creatively together and have fun. buuut that’s just my two grains of salt added to the dish ^^ I’m looking forward to see what kinda stuff the mods will keep throwing at us basically and I hope things will continue on peacefully! Jieun: I guess that concludes the intervie- Yuju: hey hey! My stage! My closing! Jieun: *sighs deeply* JKook: well guess that’s it! BYE! Yuju: YAH!!!

Anon said:Idk if you're into greek mythology but if kiribaku were put into the eros and psyche myth who do you think each one would be?
Hmmm to be honest I can’t say I feel like they fit either particularly well, but if I had to pick Baku would be Psyche and Kiri Eros, I feel :0

i went...... hard y’all this is so extra and embarrassing but i spent like,, over an hour writing this down so ur all gonna see it u better.
Why did you choose to play the character that you do at Crimson Revolt?
im gonna be honest like………………………………. i picked dirk bc i wanted to play ezra miller lmao. I KNOW HOW SHALLOW THAT IS DONT LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT OKAY I CAN EXPLAIN!!!!!!!! alright so before i apped for crt the first time i was at…… a pretty low place confidence-wise bc i’d just left the first rpg i ever joined (also the first rp thing i ever did) and it was a pretty,,,, messy departure lmaoo i gotta admit i could’ve handled that better orz. BUT ANYWAY so i went looking through the ezra miller fc tag bc i’d just discovered this fabulous person and had vague ideas about a character that could fit the fc (dramatic, cheeky, a lil flamboyant) and was also thinking “i will never fall in love with a character the way i did my previous ones again” and more dramatic bullshit along those line bc like i said,,, bad time. obviously i didn’t find any active rpgs that had him in use so i checked crt bc i’d seen it around before and liked the look of it, so i sent the main an ask like “do you see ezra miller working for any of your open characters?” the admin at the time pointed me to barty crouch, peter pettigrew and dirk cresswell.
i just want to take a moment to digest that i could literally have played any of these three, cause all i had at the time was a vague idea of a character and a fc to match. i remember i spent days trying to decide between barty and dirk cause neither skeleton fit my vision perfectly and they both seemed aimed more towards an angry jock-type character (especially dirk his fc was miles teller which…. should give u a good idea of what the admin at the time had in mind for him) ( i mean the first skeleton. the one on the main now is one i rewrote after the main crashed back in june.) (just to clarify: the original skeleton had just as much potential to evolve to a complex and intriguing character as any other skeleton here at crt. i just had my vaguely dramatic ezra miller bby and i wanted it. lmao.) but i liked challenging set characterizations and bringing unique perspectives to contrast against any expectations the admin/s might have about a character. which is why i tend to go for skeleton rps, you get more freedom with those. eventually i decided on dirk bc i liked the sound of aversio and grey moralities appeal to me greatly. i spent a long time delving into the character’s backstory and personality and all those deep-seated insecurities and compelling contradictions that make dirk up to be the person he is now. by the time i submitted the app i was thoroughly in love with the character and haven’t stopped since. he’s my most developed and my most beloved character to play thus far.
Do you have a favorite holiday?
NOPE. as long as im surrounded by people i love and a lot of snacks im good.
Do you prefer coffee or tea? Perhaps neither, or both?
coffee. coffee coffee coffee.
What is your personality type?
INFP-T. the mediator. 86% introverted lmaooo.
What is your Hogwarts House?
ahhh. when i first read the books a few years ago i was like ‘iM A SLYTHERIN DONT TOUCH ME!!!!!’ but i…………literally have the subtlety of a bulldozing stampede of rhinos im sure y’all noticed. i took the pottermore test and had the glaring red n gold show up on my face and i shut the laptop down so fast like liES I BELIEVE NONE OF THIS. then i took a fan-made test that put me in ravenclaw and i was like…………….. ok i accept this compromise i can work with that. lmao im such a gryffindor tho don’t look at me im just *flops* pottermore was right….. i accept my place now i have stopped running from the truth orz.
What is your Zodiac Sign?
Taurus.
Three most recently watched on Netflix?
SURPRISE! i don’t have netflix. most recent stuff i watched tho are Stranger Things 2, IT (2017) and…. i can’t remember orz. but im obsessed with stranger things taLK TO ME ABOUT STEVE HARRINGTON PLS I LOVE HIM SO MUCH *SOBS*
Describe your ride-or-die friend.
don’t call me out like this…………………………………. i don’t make friends in real life people are difficult and i am awkward orz.
If you could have any superpower, what would you choose?
the ability to focus whenever i want at whatever i want for however long i want and actually manage to be productive with my time. what do u mean this is not a superpower i need it to be one.
Are you an early bird or a night owl?
i have no sleep schedule to speak of. sometimes i sleep at five am and wake up at eight am to get to my classes, then have a six hour nap when i get home and stay up until four am again. sometimes i go to bed on eight pm and wake up at four in the morning and still sleep through my classes, take a small four hour nap when im home and spend obligatory time with the fam for a couple hours lmao. it’s like im just sleeping or waking up either way im always a step removed from a zombie. there is. no reason for any of this i just do it.
What is your favorite color?
YELLOW. it’s so bright and sunny and iouwodc. i love it.
What is the last book you read? What is your favorite?
ahhhh i can’t remember my memory is failing me. which is sad cause i used to pick up a new novel every other day but i just can’t be bothered anymore ugh. i think my favorite was the whole PJO & HoO series’ – i haven’t read the last book yet tho, so i’ll start rereading all ten books when i get the chance.
Where would you rather be right now?
on a bed. sleeping. alone. with a lot of blankets. solitude appeals to me on such a deep level guys u don’t even know.
Have you ever watched the sunrise?
the ones i remember are three – once when i was a kid with my mom, bc i wouldn’t go to sleep and it was approaching sunrise and i rambled about wanting to see the sun come up so my mom was like………………… ‘*throws hands up* ok u lil monster u win’ and took me to the roof to watch the sunrise lol. it was glorious. and cold. bc winter. the second time was with my cousins who were sleeping over (for the first time in a loooong tiiiimmmeeee) and we decided to spend the night up on the roof bc why not. the last time was with my brother i think he was up there fixing something or the other and i was just there….. to be annoying lmao.
Do you listen to music when you write? If yes, what kind of music?
oh no i can’t. i need everything and everyone to be quiet or i can’t write a thing.
What’s the one thing you especially love about roleplaying your muse/s?
what do i love about playing dirk…… his impulsive and his bright attitude and his endless optimism. he has such an uplifting presence and a cheeky sort of charm that makes it impossible for people not to love him, that makes his worming into other people’s hearts so entirely predictable and entertaining to play out. he is a myriad of contradictions – the difference between what he thinks everyone deserves and what he thinks he deserves is appalling, and with time it becomes clear that when he says things like “everyone needs someone to lean on” or “everyone could use some support” he is not referring to himself as a part of this ‘everyone’, if even on a subconscious level, does not find himself worthy of such kindness. he is a character so full of love he is spilling and overflowing with it, his raw emotions and his turbulent nature one of the dearest parts of him to me. the thin line he walks between being kind and violent, loyal and unforgiving, genuine and secretive. all the little details that make him up are reason for me to love him as dearly as i do.
What’s your favorite type of weather?
cold, but not too cold, y’know? just enough to wear a jacket but not so much you spend the night under five covers and a thermometer lmaoo.
What’s your best RP experience?
crt. no contest. and im not just saying that cause i’ve been in a bunch of rpgs by now and they all either a) lack dedicated admins/members b) are cliquey and non-inclusive at all or b) fall into inactivity a meager month or two after opening. crt is one of a kind.
Who inspires you?
this is actually a tough question cause i never really stop to think about it?? i draw inspiration from everything around me and it’s kinda like…. im constantly absorbing stuff from the environment im in and it’s like i’m always half-thinking about writing at any given moment, if that makes sense?? dunno.
Spread some love: mention someone you’ve met that has influenced you or your writing in a positive way and explain how!
ahhh okay so. before i tried roleplaying i stumbled upon this rpg in the fandom tag over a year ago and it’s basically been the catalyst for my time in the rpc. i was looking through the character’s blogs and found someone playing peter and i was like……….. not fond of peter at the time tbh but this person’s writing was so fucking incredible i checked their blog daily, just to see how this thread or that thread would go. their take on a character i’d only held distaste for before was so compelling and complex i was drawn in all the way, i’d even come to love the character so much and was constantly disarmed by the smallest to the biggest details in that person’s characterization – at least the details i could pick up on, some i’m sure went way over my head at the time. some details i still remember vividly and they’ve helped me shape my first character and have influenced my writing thereafter. i learned a lot about the duality of a character’s mind and how to express inner conflict by observing that person’s writing. (yes i sent them a nerdy af message gushing about all that bc they hadda know man…. they hadda know.)

Young at Heart
It’s a bit late posting a tumblr version ORZ but here is my gift fic for @pastelgabby, her good recovery and continued happiness.
Summary: Sorey and Mikleo build a pillow fort, all in the name of Sorey regaining memories.
Read on AO3
“Mikleo!”
As soon as Mikleo looked up, he could see Sorey bounding up the hill from the direction of Elysia’s gate, blond ponytail whipping behind him.  Mikleo could swear there were tiny sparks visible around his head, even in broad daylight.  That meant Sorey was excited, and that no further work would be done today.  He set aside his notebook on the steps to their house, and waited for his lover to approach.
Sorey skidded to a stop in front of Mikleo, barely avoiding pitching himself forward into the steps.  “Guess what?” he said, in a voice that sounded only a bit winded.
Mikleo just raised an eyebrow and sighed.  “I’d guess that I was actually starting to make progress on that outline I’m supposed to be writing, and now you’re going to distract me?”
Sorey just grinned wider; he was well acquainted with Mikleo’s tactics for feigning disinterest.  “Do you remember that time as kids where we made a blanket fort and lived out of it for a week?”
“I do.”  He couldn’t remember the details of the fort, what exactly it had looked like, how many days they had camped out there.  But Lords if Mikleo could remember the sense of excitement, and the fantasies of building grand ruins to leave behind.  He also didn’t remember ever telling Sorey that story.  “Did you remember that on your own?”
“I did!”  Sorey bent down to grab Mikleo’s hands, and haul him up from the step so they could spin around.  Mikleo let him do it; Sorey’s memories were still spotty at best, so every bit of recollection was something to be celebrated.
As soon as they stopped spinning, Mikleo caught Sorey’s eye.  There was a distinctive glimmer there.  Before he could even ask, Mikleo grinned and said, “You collect the blankets and pillows from our room and the guest bedroom, and I’ll go see what I can steal from anyone else who’s home.”
“You bet!”  Sorey took the steps up to the house two at a time, and disappeared inside.
Mikleo shook his head and turned down the hill, wondering exactly how he was supposed to explain to his family that yes, they did need every pillow and blanket in the village.
A few hours, and several good-natured structural engineering debates later, Mikleo and Sorey stood huddled against their front door.  It was just about the only space left, given the fact that their entire front room had been taken over by the fluffiest fort in existence.
“Ah, Fort Sorey.  It’s glorious, isn’t it?” Sorey proclaimed, hands on his hips as he surveyed their new domain.
Mikleo glanced at him from the corner of his eye with a raised eyebrow.  “Excuse you.  The entire east wing would collapse if it wasn’t for my staffholding it up.  I think that merits it being named after me.”
“But I was the one who thought of building a fort in the first place,” Sorey countered, and then picked his way carefully around what space was left between the edge of the fort and the wall.  He held a hand to his chin and inspected the spot where Mikleo’s staff was indeed bracing the intersection of a blanket and a pillow wall.  “You know, we could probably get the broom.”
“Excuse you!” Mikleo repeated again, louder.
Sorey was already laughing though.  He walked back to join Mikleo at the entrance to the fort.  “Okay, I won’t get the broom.  But for the name, how about Fort Zenrus?”
Mikleo let out a slow breath.  “Fort Zenrus.  That sounds perfect.”  He took a step back and made an ‘after you’ gesture.
Sorey dropped to his knees to crawl into the low entryway, and Mikleo followed.  To make sure the entrance wouldn’t collapse, they’d used the chairs from their kitchen table as a frame on either side.  It was a tight fit.  He was surprised that Sorey had made it through, but he wasn’t going to bring it up, because that would be admitting to being smaller.  Still.  After all this time.
They had built several different chambers inside, because Sorey had insisted that no proper ruin only had one room to it.  Thus, in the main area, there was just about enough room for the both of them to sit side by side, or to lie down together if they curled up close.  Sorey had already flopped out on his back into the layer of pillows cushioning the floor.  He held his arms wide as an invitation.
The corners of Mikleo’s mouth turned up, and he crawled fully into the space.  He drooped onto his back, lying on top of Sorey’s arm, and partly over his side.  He could feel the gentle rise and fall of Sorey’s chest under his shoulder.  Dim light from the lantern overhead filtered through the blanket roof, and cast the weave of the fabric into sharp detail.  Among the drapes and folds, Sorey had scattered a handful of tiny, floating sparks for a bit of extra light.
“You know, only a month or two ago you would have burned down this whole place with those,” Mikleo commented.  He raised a hand up toward the blanket ceiling and stretched out his fingers, to allow the tiny points of glowing mana coalescing there to spread and settle between Sorey’s sparks.
Sorey was not impressed.  “You never had to deal with possibly catching things on fire while practicing that trick.”
“I was also doing it when we were seven.”
“If we’re going to talk age, technically I’m only three in seraph years.”
Mikleo closed his eyes and let an amused smile part his lips.  “So, what you’re saying then, is that I probably shouldn’t have sex with you for the next fifteen years.”
“What?” Sorey exclaimed, and sat up suddenly so that he could treat Mikleo to his most insulted glare.  “That is absolutely not what I’m saying.”
Mikleo just grinned wider.  “That kind of sounds like what you’re saying.”
“Not a chance.”
For a moment, he got to think that he had won this argument.  But then, Sorey used the advantage he had from sitting to swing one leg over Mikleo, and pin him to the ground before he even realized what was happening.  He only had the time to blink up at Sorey in surprise, who was suddenly sitting across his thighs, before wiggling fingers attacked his sides with pokes and prods.
A shriek of laughter escaped Mikleo’s lips before he clamped them shut to try to preserve his dignity.  His dignity, it seemed, did not want to be preserved, because before long he was laughing breathlessly under Sorey’s hands.  His best attempts to wiggle away or fend them off proved ineffective.
When it reached the point where it felt like Mikleo’s sides would split in two, he cried, “Sorey, Sorey stop!  You’re knocking down the fort!”
“Huh?”  Sorey’s hands fell still, as he twisted his body around to see behind them, to assess the quality of their precious structure.  There was not a blanket or pillow out of place, but Sorey wouldn’t be Sorey unless he fell for that trick every time.
Mikleo used the momentary lapse in attention to grip Sorey’s arms and roll them to the side.  Sorey landed on his back with an ‘oof,’ and Mikleo arranged himself above with very little sense of urgency.  He leaned in close, hair spilling over his shoulders and around his face, hair tie lost somewhere to the pillow pile beneath them.  Out of the corners of his eyes, he could see tiny flashes of gold and blue, a field of stars brought down to earth to cluster around his head.  Sorey was looking up at him with something akin to wonder.
Slowly, slow enough that Mikleo didn’t suspect any attempt to retaliate, Sorey lifted a hand.  He caught a strand of hair with his palm, let it gently run across his fingers as he brought it to his mouth to kiss.  “What did I ever do to deserve you?” he whispered, barely audible, before letting the hair slip away.
Mikleo scoffed gently, but lifted an arm so that he could lay a hand against Sorey’s cheek.  A hand came to cover his, and fingertips lightly played against his skin, brushing with deliberate care over the gold band at his ring finger.  Sorey’s eyes were wide and bright with the same trust and love as all those years ago, and his lips stretched into a relaxed smile.
Some days, Mikleo asked himself the same question.
A breath passed, and then another, as Mikleo smiled back.  But then, the intentions at the corners of his mouth curled wickedly, and he said, “Nothing that’s going to save you from revenge,” and let his hands dive for Sorey’s sides.
Sorey yelped and cried, “Wait, no, not fair!”  He squirmed and kicked, but to no avail.
“You started it.”
“But I was,” he tried between laughs, “being cute!”
“If being cute was all you needed in life, you’d rule the world,” Mikleo told him, far too interested in tickling Sorey until he could barely breathe anymore to be embarrassed by his statement.
Once Sorey could hardly even laugh anymore, Mikleo halted abruptly.  He cocked his head to the side and asked, “Truce?” before leaning down to steal a peck from Sorey’s panting lips to seal the deal.
Sorey pouted impressively.  “Who are you to decide that?”
“I would have to say, the one who won.”
“Only because you relied on a dirty trick.”
“And I’ll stop using it the moment you stop falling for it,” Mikleo said, and climbed over to sit next to Sorey.  “Now, help me find my hair tie?  It’s somewhere in here.”
Both of them shuffled off to the edges of the blanket walls as best as they could, to start turning up the cushions on the floor.  A moment’s search later, Sorey’s hand shot in the air with a triumphant cry.  He brought it back down so he could work on gently smoothing out the rumpled edges of the feather attached to it.
“Ah, thanks,” Mikleo said as he held out a hand.
Instead, Sorey stretched out his legs to either side, and patted the space between with a hopeful smile.
Mikleo heaved a large sigh, and stated, “Okay, you’ve convinced me.”  He twisted around awkwardly on his heels in the small space and then sat with his back to Sorey, who began immediately carding his fingers through his hair.
“That really took a lot of convincing.”
“Shut up.”
He decided that was a good enough argument and let his eyes slip shut as he could feel Sorey’s deft fingers separating out three small strands at the front of his head.  There had been a time when Sorey had been so bad at doing his hair that he’d wanted to restrict him from touching it all over again.  But, the fingers against his scalp and the gentle tugging amongst the strands felt too good, and Sorey could do quite a nice braid now, even if he couldn’t help with any of the fancier styles Mikleo liked to wear.  He let himself fall into the sensation as more small bits of hair were gathered up and added into the braid.
There was a moment of silence as he worked, before Sorey said, “Thank you, Mikleo, really.”
“What for, building the fort with you?  You don’t have to thank me for that; it was fun.”
“No, but I do,” he insisted, but with just the hint of hesitation in his voice that said he was still trying to put together the right words.  His hands stilled for a moment as he thought, and then resumed as he spoke again.  “I’ve got all these fragments of memory, some hardly more than a flash and then it’s gone.  And some of them?  They just seem like pictures in a book, a tome dusted off for the retelling.  Like things that happened to someone else, not me.”
Mikleo wound his hands together in his lap and held them tight.  Everything in him screamed to twist around and gather Sorey into his arms.  He’d watched how difficult this process of trying to regain his past life had been.  He’d seen the flashes of confusion and hurt deep in those green eyes when Sorey couldn’t piece together some tale that had been brought up.  He’d watched as Sorey wept for friends he could hardly recall enough to mourn, and then held him in the still hours of the night when he admitted that he didn’t even feel he had the right to mourn them.  But for now, Sorey’s voice was calm and his hands steady.  Mikleo clenched his own hands tighter and let him continue.
“This though, sitting here with you and remembering?  It feels genuine.  It feels as if this piece actually fits back the way that it should."
“Sorey,” Mikleo said quietly, as the hands in his hair finished off the last of the braid, tied it off and let him free.  It had barely swung down and the tie settled against his lower back before he’d turned to see Sorey.  There was some lingering sorrow on his face, for those memories that might just never fit right, but mostly his eyes were bright.
He lifted a hand to the back of Sorey’s neck and pulled him gently into a kiss.  When he moved away, he said, “If we have to recreate every memory, I will do everything I can.”
“Well, I don’t know if you need to do that with every memory.”  Sorey laughed, a hand moving up to rub at the back of his neck.  “But, this is still nice.  And you know, I think maybe all those years ago, this was the moment I fell in love with you.”
Mikleo, who had become distracted tracing his fingers down Sorey’s arm to take his hand, looked back up with a snort.  “Sorey we were – well, to be honest, I don’t fully remember what age we were when we built the fort – but far too young to be falling in love with anyone.”
“Well, I didn’t have the words for it,” Sorey said with a pout, “but you were so bright and excited for the opportunity for us to create something together.  The way you smiled, and could always help me figure out the pieces I couldn’t, and were so invested in leaving our legacy – ours.  Even if that ‘legacy’ was doomed to be taken down the next time we needed to do laundry.  I still knew that feeling was special.  Something I never wanted to let go of.”  He paused for a moment to lace his fingers with Mikleo’s hand, which had finally connected with his.  His other hand came up to cup Mikleo’s cheek, to caress the skin and play with the tiny wisps of hair at his temple that couldn’t tie back into the braid.  “So yeah, I was definitely in love with you then.”
Mikleo could feel his cheeks heating, but there was a contented smile on his lips.  “You know, that’s another thing that hasn’t changed one bit – you’ve always been this cheesy.”
“That I remember.  Which also reminds me, I have a new poem I’m working on for you to look at.”
Mikleo felt his smile wobble just a little bit, but he recovered it.  “Maybe later, huh?”
“Okay, fine.  Besides,” Sorey said, and started to lean back into the pillow pile, trying to drag Mikleo with him, “this seems like a perfect opportunity for a nap.”
For a moment, Mikleo held his ground against Sorey’s weight pulling at his shoulders and stayed upright.  Sorey switched tactics and wriggled lower until he could wrap his arms around Mikleo’s waist and press his face into his side.  “I really did mean to get something done today,” he admonished, letting a hand fall gently to Sorey’s head anyway.  “Maybe I’ll get my notebook from the desk and work while you nap, huh?”
“Mikleo,” Sorey whined.  He’d used the advantage of his position to nose up the hem of Mikleo’s shirt and kiss at his waist.
“Sorey,” he replied, doing his best to imitate the whine.  It wasn’t going well.  It was hard to do a whole lot of anything other than just caving in to whatever Sorey wanted, especially when his lips were pressing again and again to his skin.
“Could you even get to the desk right now?” Sorey paused to say, looking up with an expression which said, ‘really, I’m just being the logical one here.’  He ducked back down for another kiss.
Mikleo thought about the floor plan of their fort for a moment.  Maybe he could if he went into the next room to the right of them, but it was very possible his notebook had been sacrificed to the book pile holding a corner of the roof blanket in place.  He grumbled, and brushed Sorey’s hands away from his waist, but only so that he could lie down, too.  Sorey’s grin was massive as he settled in, practically nose-to-nose.  “What?”
“I.  Win.”
“Insufferable,” Mikleo declared.  “I don’t even want to see that smug face.”  He turned over onto his side, and then snuggled back close into Sorey’s chest, taking all the bite out of his words.
Sorey slung an arm around him, and hoisted his knee up over Mikleo’s thigh.  “That’s okay, I like this too.”
Mikleo concentrated for a moment, drawing back to himself the mana he’d used for his bubble lights.  The lightning sparks flickered out, too, although he suspected that was more from lack of concentration than anything else if Sorey really did intend to take a nap.  They were left in only the dim light filtering through the blankets, warm and close and nostalgic, and Mikleo couldn’t find any reason to disagree.

Tagged by @theempresskaizer and since I can’t sleep (and I really love tagging games), here I am. Thank you, Ythmir! :) I feel you about your favourite pens btw. The only store that sells my favourite pen closed down recently here and the other store that sells it is in Manila. ;^;

3. Have you got any useless talents? i play three different instruments, and it’s not useful now... i think. i really wanted to be either an astronaut or a musician when i was a kid. dad refused to let me enroll at a music school in favour of a “more prestigious” university (parents’ words) so i feel it’s kinda useless now.

What was your favorite way to pass the time as a kid? my sister and i used to sneak into our parents’ room and play with our mom’s beauty kit, like we would mix the lotions, alcohols, colognes, powders and stuff while pretending to be scientists and whatnots. we even tried to eat our concoction, to see what it tastes like. xD good thing someone saw us. lol.
7. What is something you’re proud of? i can learn anything if i just put my mind into it. i’m good at studying (my dad made sure of it lol).

15. Do you fall in love easily? Or does it usually take a long time for you to trust someone? i’m not even sure i have fallen in love yet. i get long-time crushes tho. in fact, i still like this certain guy since i was in 1st year college. XD

17. Do you consider yourself to be more of a slob or a neat-freak? my dad tells me i have a landfill for a room. lol. i don’t mind. it’s organised chaos. XD
18. Describe a place (imaginary or real) that you would find incredibly cozy my room, on a rainy day with no one else at home and i have unlimited internet connection and books and coffee. and did i just mention i’m alone?
19. Do you have kids? If not, do you want them someday? i don’t have one. not seeing myself getting married or having a child. i’m having another baby sister/brother soon tho so i think it’s enough. :D
20. What was your favorite book as a child? the two-can first encyclopedia series. i love the one that features the solar system.
21. Name one thing you just don’t get what all the hype is about WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES A FIDGET SPINNER DO
22. Name one thing that you think is tragically underrated fanfiction writers. i have nothing against fanarts but i would appreciate it if the same attention is given to fanfiction writers.
23. If you had to be glued to a person for a month, real or fictional (who you have never met), who would you choose? kimura tatsunari hehehe

25. Do you typically speak your mind when you have a controversial opinion? Or do generally prefer to not rock the boat? depends on my mood. sometimes i just want to see the world burn.
26. What’s the dumbest fad you’ve been caught up in? what’s a fad?
27. What’s something you thought was cool as a kid/adolescent, but now cringe at yourself for? telenovelas. i wanna live like the heroine back then and now i try to forget all about it. XDD
28. What’s a trait you consider to be very admirable? kindness is something i admire and at the same time so foreign to me. sure, i can be nice but i’m never kind. i will never be kind. i know this person who’s so kind to everyone and i wonder what it’s like to be like that.
29. Is there a particular kind of item people always tend to give you as gifts? (For instance, people always get you things with ducks on them because you like ducks, etc.) i’m a hoarder of cute/pretty notebooks and pens so every year, during my birthday, my family and friends always have a new notebook/pen for me. i even got a fountain pen for my birthday last year which i haven’t used until now. XD
30. Do you speak multiple languages? Which ones? yep. filipino/tagalog, english. this native dialect called cebuano and a little bit of ilonggo. i’m currently studying japanese (self-study cos paying for lessons is expensive). i’m shit at kanji tho.
31. Would you rather live in the big city or the countryside? in the city tho not at the center of it.
32. Has there ever been something you were certain you’d hate, but ended up loving? HAIKYUU!! my online bff has been convincing me to watch haikyuu!! for 4 years now and i was adamant at refusing cos i’m sure i’d hate it. i don’t even like volleyball. but when i watched it last year, i got hooked. now my main fandom is haikyuu!! //facepalm
33. Do you mind being the center of attention, or do you prefer the spotlight to be on someone else? noooo. i don’t like being put on spotlight. lemme work quietly in the background.
34. Favorite holiday? CHRISTMAS! i love seeing the decorations and the lights. i even go to malls just to stare at the decors and listen to christmas songs. i even have my own christmas tree in my room. it’s a small one tho. with christmas lights and all. hihihi. and also my birthday. i can do whatever i want on my birthday. nyahahaha
35. Are you a more go-with-the-flow type of person, or do you need to have things planned meticulously? i only have a plan when i’m writing. i don’t even know what i’m going to do with my life. orz.
36. Is there something you loved so much you wish you could forget it and experience it all over again? (A tv show, book, series–anything.) yes, there is, but i’d rather not forget it and experience it all over again. i’m content with the fuzzy feeling i get whenever i remember it. ^^
37. What hobbies do you have? playing games, going to cons, sleeping a lot, reading, and writing. my only extreme hobby is going mountain climbing. we even went once without any gears. it was fun but i’d rather not do something that unsafe again. o3o
38. If you could have a superpower, but it was only mildly useful, what ability would you want to have? the ability to learn different languages easily. wait, how can this be mildly useful? or maybe change my hairstyle at will? lol
39. Something people are always surprised to learn about you that i’m 26. srsly, when i go to transact with government offices in behalf of the company i’m working for, they always think i’m an intern. wth.
40. Something that took you way too long to figure out this sounds silly, but putting back the chiller part of the fridge. i dislodged it once and i spent almost half an hour trying to put it back. XD
41. Worst injury you’ve had? i never had one. not a broken bone or anything. i only got hospitalized 2 times - when i was 2 and 9, respectively. and both because of dengue.
42. Any morbid fascinations? i like skulls and blowing zombies heads off. my most favourite game of all time is left 4 dead.
43. Describe your sense of humor corny and dry. sarcastic even.
44. If you had to be born in another era/place, which would you choose? in the gundam universe, like Cosmic Era, where people can live on another planet. i would relocate to saturn in a heartbeat.
45. Something you are irredeemably bad at being patient. patience is not my virtue.
46. Something that sucked but you’re glad you went through an hour of jogging for a whole month to prepare myself (and increase the stamina) for a mountain climbing activity 2 years ago
47. Would you rather have a really godawful ugly tattoo in a place that is only slightly inconvenient to conceal with clothing (upper arm, thigh, etc.), or the coolest, most beautiful tattoo ever in the middle of your face? (Neither tattoo can be removed or concealed with makeup, and the ugly tattoo will deeply offend anyone who sees it.) the ugly one. i don’t really like markings on my face.
48. Are you more of an optimist or a pessimist? for a pessimist, i’m pretty optimistic. (wait, is that a song? lol)
49. What would be the most flattering compliment someone could give you? tbh, compliments about writing and work are the ones i’m usually flattered with. tho i suck at accepting compliments.
50. Something you feel people often misunderstand about you this is a fact. i have a resting bitch face so people often feel i’m always irritated/annoyed by them. 
you don’t have to do it if you don’t want tbh, but i’m tagging @lustfullyleocrawford @kakihoden @passengersaraht @emigotchi @leorysxi @oh-my-otome @spyroeden @acrispyapple @devanofficial @astridapples

Tumblr media
it’s hard to believe on this day one year ago today, my beautiful jieqiong was being accepted into rookies. i would have never never never ever expected for her to last this long - seriously looking back i’m surprised she made it past my cured three month mark. but she did, proved me wrong, and has become one of my most loved muses to this day.
to be honest, i joined rookies just bc the mun of our current @tenrk managed to talk me into it. at the time i was only at one other directory ( wow, that’s weird to say... looks at my 127182 muses ) and figured joining one more wouldn’t hurt. and now it’s confession time, i didn’t really want to join with jie???? ITS WEIRD I KNOW BUT I HAD LIKE TWO OTHER FCS IN MIND AND JIE WAS MY LEAST FAVORITE AT THE TIME BUT YET HERE SHE IS ONE YEAR LATER 
and this one year would not be possible without all of the wonderful muses and muns both jie and i have been blessed enough to encounter ♥ and now i shall begin my long ass emotional ride of thanks ;;
okay um where do i start iudhsiuhds LETS GO WITH THE LOVELY @rkdawon - a beautiful girl we had planned to accidentally take jie’s first kiss but i don’t think we actually got to write it out??? ORZ ANOTHER FAULT OF MY DROPPING OF THREADS BUT DHSICJSD IT IS STILL A LOVELY THOUGHT. matt, the mun behind this gem, was also one of the first people to make feel welcomed here so thank you for that ♥ 
and next we have the lovely @rkyeri - jie’s ride or die, her squad leader, her whole heart ; ; yet another one of the victims of my vicious droppings but please know i love yeri and so does jie amxamxah thank you for taking in this wild girl and loving her as much as i do !!! and raina, I ADMITTEDLY WAS A BIT SCARED OF YOU AT FIRST BC YERI SEEMED SO POPULAR AND YOU WERE COOL SO IM LIKE AKSKSXNSXSA BUT NOW I LOVE TALKING ABOUT WOOJIN WITH YOU AND AM GLAD OUR MUSES TOOK A LIKING TO EACH OTHER
and then the unlikely friends ( sorry i’m tagging you in this twice but ) @tenrk !!! from volleyball rivals to close friends, these two are an interesting pair LOL  a lot of changes behind the scenes involving these two have happened but i’m glad where they ended up ♥ and then for the lovely mun behind this soft, charlie, one of my closest friends in the rp community, someone who helped break me out of my shell and i hold very close to my heart ♥ 
@rkjisoo the mom friend everyone wishes they had. ANOTHER VICTIM OF DROPPED THREADS BUT please know jisoo is her favorite unnie to annoy and the mom friend she brags about to everyone !!! and now camie, jisoo’s mun who i sadly don’t talk to as much as i’d like but just now you’re one of the sweetest people i’ve met and we should talk more ( esp involving more threads between our muses weeps )
as wild as she is, as bad as i am at getting something started between them - @rkxuanyi will always have a special place in jie’s heart. these two are one of my favorite relationships i have for this muse and let’s get these two in trouble together sometime soon, yeah? as muns we don’t talk much but this needs to change bc ily and xuanyi ♥ lots and lots
@nayoungxrk her favorite unnie !!! and another to add to the list of my dropping of threads duhedixdcjdska there’s no one jie would prefer to question her sexuality with and cause me heart trouble ;’) AS MUNS WE NEED TO TALK MORE BUT I KNOW YOU’VE BEEN BUSY RECENTLY BUT JUST KNOW ILY AND JIE LOVES NAYOUNG ♥
and last but certainly not least, a new addition to jie’s life, @rkyonghyun !!! these two have just met recently but just know he has certainly left a strong impression on her sedrcftvygubhij ( and suddenly ???? he’s her new favorite dancer ??? ) AND CIRCE, THE MUN BEHIND HIM, JUST NOW ILY EVEN THO WE HAVENT BEEN TALKING LONG AND I ENOUGH YOUR PIC SPAMS OF HIS LOVELY FACE NEVER STOP PLS

and finally, thank you to rookies for staying around so long and please stay a lot more, yeah? we love you, i love you and am excited to celebrate the many more years to come

1/2 So I took that job as a consultant, cause I thought it'd have some level of coding and it'd help me with my people skills. But god. I hate it so much. Like the people are lovely but management seems highly disorganized. Like I've been there for 3 months but there's nothing. I haven't had a client yet, I don't know if or when I will get a client. And the "training" is sporadic. So I don't really feel like I have something to do, so I start slacking, but then I get striked against for doing so
2/2 And it’s just a never ending cycle. Like I understand it’s my responsibility to ask for more work but what should I do if they don’t respond? Do I keep harassing them? But at the same time, I’m too chicken to quit if I don’t have anything else lined up. But it’s also really hard to do interviews when you’re working. I think I’m going to lose it
if I get one more strike against me. I don’t know orz
Oh hey anon! Good to hear from you again! My response got away from me and turned into an essay so I’m putting it under the cut to keep this post short for others (also, sorry for the incoming word vomit!)
I hear you on how hard it is to do interviews while working. I did that for like… 9 months, I think? Plus 5 more while I was unemployed. And it’s so time consuming and stressful. Interviews in general are so hard. I hate it. :/
I had a somewhat similar experience with disorganized management in my first job, but as a developer (never been a consultant). Tangential story time: I actually quit that job within 3 months because of disorganized management! It wasn’t even about the shitty processes, although that was a huge factor. The straw that broke the camel’s back was when I left my company-issued laptop in the office because I didn’t want to take it home with me (commuting is hard and dangerous) and then the next day it got stolen for some reason?? And like I had to pay for it because I was “neglectful” which… I wasn’t, the whole point of me leaving the laptop in the office was because I thought that was safer than bringing it with me on my three hour ride home on transit. I’ve witnessed so many ways someone can steal a bag or a phone on the train okay. I thought leaving the laptop in the office was safe! Anyway, the office didn’t have CCTV so no one could really prove what happened, but because I was responsible for the laptop they took a substantial amount of my backpay when I quit to compensate for it. When I told this story to my friends they said I should have fought for it because I was in the right and it can also be argued that the company itself was negligent on basic security but I was too chicken at the time and I’m not… really good at arguing these things. I mean, I was able to negotiate that I don’t have to pay a ridiculous amount of money, just a little bit, but other, more persuasive people might have been able to argue their way out of paying for it entirely. This trait of mine has screwed me over so many times. But anyway.
Plus, yeah, I wasn’t really learning there? So nothing was keeping me there and I quit while I was on the three-month probation period. Less fuss that way, and you can argue that a probation period should be for both parties to assess if they’re a good fit together, it’s not just the employer’s prerogative. Although it probably looks bad on my resume… (I never tell this story to future employers though. Never burn bridges and all that).
Having organized management in my next job after that felt like a godsend, honestly, because I was still very junior so I wanted to like… learn more and improve my skills than waste my time “managing up” so to speak. I feel like… it’s easier to deal with disorganized management (side eyes most startup companies lmao) when you’ve gained more experience? Because I’m working with a startup now, after working a couple of years in a more corporate job, (which, yeah it sucks your soul sometimes but if it’s a good company you learn a ton of shit there very quickly and the stability is great) and it’s like… I don’t get as worked up over how messy and almost non-existent the internal processes are because I now feel comfortable managing myself. I’m still trying to get to the point where I feel comfortable influencing our current processes and making suggestions on how to do things better but I’m not completely there yet.
Anyway, I digress. I’ve heard someone said before that the key to being happy with your career is getting the right level of autonomy, mastery, and purpose that you need. I feel like, in your case, if you’re not getting any of that in the company, you have to “manage up” and get them to give you work if they don’t show the initiative, because otherwise it just seems like you’re both waiting on each other for something to happen. Does your company have a decent culture on feedback? Because you should be able to talk about these things with your supervisor at least and have a frank conversation about it to let them know how to manage you better (especially in tech because, idk about your company, but sometimes managers in tech are really just engineers/devs promoted to management for being good in tech but they don’t have good people skills, so you kinda have to help them help you, y’know?)
Since you seem to have time and you don’t know yet if you want to leave, have you thought about pursuing part-time work or freelancing on the side? Or doing personal side projects? Management isn’t guaranteed but at least if you get a solo project or team up with someone you know you can set the pace yourself and keep learning, and it’s still additional resume material/github repos if you ever need it.
Are there other things you can do in the company that excites you? I don’t particularly like my current work, but I’m getting our UX Lead to sort of adopt me and take me along her workshops. So even though I’m not terribly excited with the company vision or my main job (coding), I still have something to look forward to when going to work.
On a side note, I really want to help you anon but as you can tell from my posts I actually rant a lot about work so idk if I’m a good person to ask advice from lmao. But as a rant buddy I’m here for you. I will never run out of things to rant about this my love-hate relationship with this industry.

A Fic Year in Review - 2016
It's that time again~ And I wrote so much this year, holy shit. As usual, any concrit and comments are welcome~~ (as are requests, when open lol)
January
what are THOOOOSE a superhero's holiday
Oh jeez. Both these fics got way more attention than I thought they would. But I keep underestimating the ML fandom tbh. The first was basically me goofing around and I somehow ended up promising to write a sequel since everyone wanted one (which I...still need to do.....). The second was a flag for both my descent into ladrien hell and also a return to my nsfw ways orz;;;;
February
you are gold and silver (1/2)
IT TOOK. SO. L O N G. TO WRITE THIS. Although this fic is firmly in AU territory now thanks to being beautifully jossed by canon, it helped me realize just how much I needed to grow in order to write romantic intimacy in a believable way. So, I made it my goal to work on it until it was up to my own standards.
(I...still need to finish this fic too......)
March
jackady ladrien drabble prompts (1/2):
ribbons
fan merchandise
artistic muse
make-outs
stuck in a small place
rain
smiles
croissants
never have i ever
i want to touch them
jackady ladrien drabble prompts (2/2):
damsel in distress
beauty facial masks
visible marks
ice cream sandwiches
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (1/9):
the 4 times adrien pretended to shower to hide from ladybug (and the 1 time he was actually showering when she calls out his bullshit)
disney
halloween
tried to kiss your lips but i missed
magic
staring into each other’s eyes
Ah, the plan being put into action! With the release of actual ladrien eps, I had the perfect excuse to write romantic scenario after romantic scenario using submitted prompts. Which also meant I accidentally created a secret love affair AU and wrote more smut whoops. Still, they were super fun! I took a break halfway through to write some Inuyasha-inspired marichat that just would not leave me alone (also fun).
(....I promised to write a continuation of the 'never have i ever' prompt, didn't I alrjkdsflaks. AND TANGLED AU SHIT I ALMOST FORGOT)
April
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (2/9):
music
moaning
sweat
bath
they go on a date together
soulmate au
photographs
“i love you. i’m completely and utterly in love with you. please don’t get married.”
the one time ladybug actually catches adrien in the shower
ACTUALLY in the shower
“of all the people i could’ve gotten stuck in an elevator with and it just had to be you.”
mirror
More ladrien prompts/romance practice~ The music prompt is still one the most cracktastic things I've ever written lol. Managed to make two more AUs with this batch that I've already started to expand on: the soulmate AU and the auteur AU. Lastly, in a surprise twist, the fucking elevator prompt managed to gather over 1k in notes. Probably because I ripped off Sailor Moon but. Still.
May
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (3/9):
another shower scene
porn
away from home
“you have mom’s smile.” he said this to ladybug once, but he thinks it again and again and again. but ladybug is better: she is real.
calling bullshit
untitled continuation of a comic by pozolegirl
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (4/9):
under the covers
eyelashes
mega nachos
“i heard that the spots on your bodysuit corresponds to chakra points? so… what happens if i touch this?”
cute nose/forehead kisses
their first time
happiness
“i need you to pretend we’re dating…”
“is there anything you’re not good at?”
More Volpina prompts! Again, I like experimenting with them :D Also wrote a continuation of that Christmas comic because it was just way too cute~~
June
ladrien june 2016 drabble prompts (1/6):
love poem
awkwardness
games
i can show you the world
first love
everyone can see it
shower scene
jealousy
it’s a trap
insecurities
sins cannot be undone
ladrien june 2016 drabble prompts (2/6):
jealous fangirls/boys
“you have her smile”
gabriel | hawkmoth’s reaction
it’s not you, it’s my enemies
secret dating
window kisses
Oooooh boy. The triple whammy of Ladrien June, Ramadan, and starting my summer job. I was excited to have a month dedicated to just ladrien (as if I hadn't already dedicated most of my year to it lol) but fell behind pretty quickly thanks to my lack of free time. I aim to finish them this year!
And Ramadan. Man. It always sends my mental health straight into the toilet. Not because of the holiday itself, but because of the way my family treats it. Idk. I tried to flush away the bad feelings by punching out 'sins cannot be undone' in one night. And it helped, I suppose. It's definitely the rawest thing I wrote this year and I still have very strong feelings about it.
July
three sentence prompts:
ladynoir, spy au
nino and marinette, karaoke au
ladrien, bodyguard au
ladrien, superman/lois lane au
adrien and tikki, baking au
alix and kim, and the one-time-max-actually-won au
alya and marinette, vigilante au
adrienette, foreign countries
ladynoir, and the elevator game/ritual
Between work and writing various wips that I still haven't posted yet (*coughcoughconjugalvisitcough*), I only posted stuff from this meme. I had fun (the goal) and the adrien&tikki kwamiswap AU one is still my fave |D *slams fists on table* LET ADRIEN BE A BAKER!!!!
August
untitled continuation of a comic by geek-fashionista insomaniac and the chaton pile
UMMMM My summer job ended by this point, so my only excuse for not posting much is it's all tied up in unpublished wips and...I was freaking out about starting school next month for the first time in y e a r s;;; Just some drabbles for the sidekick AU (not mine) and my own, sleep-deprived ideas (that I...still find hilarious alkdjfhalksd I DID NOT EXPECT ANYONE ELSE TO???)
September
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (5/9):
embarrassing hobbies (aka: adrien is secretly a popular ladynoir fanfic writer)
water
mlnsfweek prompts (1/3):
laughter
roleplay
make 'em blush
we've got time
"i can’t believe we survived" sex
wet dreams
virginity
STILL REALLY STRESSED ABOUT SCHOOL, which translated into a lot of writing. Did a couple of Volpina prompts, including time ≠ water. Which. Got way more attention than I expected;;;; And that I...also promised to expand on......;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
And then #mlnsfweek hit and I'm actually really proud of myself for finishing the whole week, even if it was late~ /o/ Did some random scenarios, including some futurefic for the timebreaker AU. I still cackle every time I think of the wet dreams prompt tbh XDDD
October
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (6/9):
inside a video game
horror movies
“who crawls through someone’s window at 4 am to go for ice cream?!”
aching muscles from running all over the city, and then: "would a massage help?"
chocolate
discovering their sensitive spots
“so close” from enchanted
As usual, more Volpina prompts in between school and wips. Not really much to say except it was around now (or maybe September? My memory is horrible) that I realized I had developed a pretty good grasp on romance and could start working on upping my daily wordcount. I really want the mental stamina to complete a chapter fic one day...
November
mlnsfweek prompts (2/3):
marks
School REALLY started to pick up in difficulty and I signed up for a fic exchange and a fanzine. Despite really wanting to, I didn't have time or energy to do more than one prompt for the #mlnsfweek redux, but I plan to complete it~ I have Ideas.
December
oh, the things i do for you (the bubbler remix)
volpina ladrien drabble prompts (7/9):
bruises and scars
cold hands, warm hearts
I'm never, ever committing to more than one fic deadline near exam time ever again. I nearly died last month as I rushed to complete these fics, my studying, and prep for my vacation that started right after exams (I'm still recovering;;;). The remix is currently the longest fic I've written to date, including my wips! Holy shit!!!
Both were done very last minute, but I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. I tried to finish the last of the Volpina prompts before the end of the year, but alas, time was not on my side. Better luck next year~ :'D
Total Year’s Output: ....58,718 words;;;
Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you’d predicted?
.......This is almost twice as much as I did last year. I actually passed the NaNoWriMo standard. Oh my god. There is no fucking way I would have predicted this last year. And that's not counting all the wips aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH—
What pairing/genre/fandom did you write that you would never have predicted in January 2016?
Uhhhh, Bustier/Mendeleiev, definitely. Also DjWifi?? I just wasn't into it at all last year, but now I'm rooting for them. Also, I did not expect to write this much smut, but here we are. ALSO MARIE/ADRIEN/MARINETTE AKA THE OT3 AKA LOVE SQUARED (the homestuck in me will never die)
What’s your favourite story of the year? Not the most popular, but the one that makes you happiest.
Happy...? Hmmmm....There's stuff that makes me laugh, that I'm proud of...
...I know it's not published yet or even done, but...probably conjugal visit. Not only is it chock full of my favourite type of ladrien, it's...sort of my thesis on emotional intimacy? It's proof of my progress. I look at it and I can feel my determination to grow and to move on from the mental rut I was stuck in for most of my life, that I won't let my past keep my from recognizing my own emotions and learning empathy, not forever.
(Maybe that's pride and contentment and hope more than happiness, but I'll damn well take it)
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the New Year?
I ALWAYS SAY THIS but...I really want to finish my wips.....and I want to start an actual chaptered fic. Not a one-shot collection or a drabble collection. Long, plotty, gen or romance (or both!!), chapter fic. I want to write something that will keep people up all night, lying to themselves when they say 'just one more chapter'. I think I actually have a shot at completing one now, at my current skill and confidence level |D

Nice to Party You ☆ It's Tomita Suzuka YO!
Member: Tomita Suzuka Source: 2nd gen Hiragana Keyakizaka46 blog Post date: 2017/12/04 20:37
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've been a party-goer since before I was born! I've come here as a newbie, and every day is full of discoveries (´∇`) Let me once again introduce myself. I'm Tomita Suzuka, a second generation Hiragana Keyakizaka46 member. Nice to meet you~~~~~!! Nice to party you~~!! 1 I'm a 16 year old, second year high schooler from Kanagawa prefecture. The second generation members' blog has started! I'm very happy!! I've wished for a place that would let me quickly connect with everyone. And I've finally, finally gotten it! Haa, haa... I'm really so happy ( ˃̣̣̥ω˂̣̣̥ ) Tears are welling up. I'm pretty sure fans are expecting Paripi-chan2 to have a party-like blog but... From here on out, I'll leave Paripi-chan behind and write as Diligent-chan3. Please stay put and don't close the page!! If I ever started a blog, I told myself I'd definitely post this picture ( ´﹀` ) What do you think? I think this is a good picture of myself. In fact, it's so good that I seriously consider it the best picture that I've seen of myself, in my whole entire life. So good that I should be charging money for it (^^) j/k (^^) I wonder how everyone sees this picture? (lol)
The food family (Matsuda Konoka & Watanabe Miho) are attacking Hina (Kawata Hina) (∩´﹏`∩) During lessons or in the dressing room, there's always something frivolous like this happening (lol)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well, well, 2017 will end in about a month. Somehow, that went by quickly... Especially since the month of August! During the summer break, without doing my homework, I struggled hard and risked my life for the SHOWROOM auditions. Actually, on the last day of the SHOWROOM auditions, I made a very important promise with my best friend. At that time, it's because my best friend told me "Let's stop this tomorrow!" that I'm able to be here right now. Starting at 5:46AM, I did an early morning broadcast and my Mom made sure to take the dog out for a walk at that time. I'm sure that my dog was happy about getting an early walk too (U「・ω・)「 I'm grateful for all the support that my best friend, my mother and my family gave me. I've been watching all of the recommendation comments that I received from people after the SHOWROOM broadcasts ended! I've properly remembered them!! I want to quickly meet with all of you (^^) At that time, I had decided to do the broadcasts without showing myself. I took that decision fully aware that doing broadcasts without showing my face would put me at a disadvantage compared to the girls who would show themselves. Because I didn't show myself, all I had at my disposal was my talking skill. Since people would only be able enjoy my broadcasts through their ears, I put a lot of thought every day into what I was going to do. For example, I played "Overture" on the guitar. On the last day, I had recorded the accompaniment in advance, and played the melody live during the broadcast! I came up with things that I thought the other girls would definitely not do! To tell the truth, I personally thought that what I showed was too good! When thinking of what I did, I was conceited and thought "Ah~ That was awesome!" ( ̄▽ ̄) With each passing broadcast, I felt like I was getting better at talking! These broadcasts will become a source of encouragement for myself in the future, when I look back at them. They were a wonderful experience (^^) I think the people who listened to me from the beginning know this, but during the first broadcast, I tried to portray the "good girl" (lol). That was an impossible feat wasn't it...? With how I am now, I'm so embarrassed when I listen to that first broadcast (lol) This is the cheat sheet I put together right before the SHOWROOM broadcast. Since it was done in a hurry, my writing was sloppy, but as long as it could help me convey my thoughts, then that was good enough (˃̣̣̥ω˂̣̣̥ ) My Paripi-chan character is the result of all the people who watched my SHOWROOM broadcasts and helped me create that persona! I want to become an idol who considers "individuality" important~! It's been about three and a half months since I was chosen to become an additional member of Hiragana Keyaki. I still haven't come to grip with that fact yet (´•ω•̥`) There are instants where I tell myself "Ah, I'm an idol now." I'd like to challenge myself with singing, dancing, appearing on variety shows and the various other things that I will be faced with! Even if I can't get you to like me, I'm happy just knowing that you are aware of me! At first, you might dislike me, but you'll gradually grow to like me. I think that it's the same thing as with food (^^) [So she's something like an acquired taste?] Back then, I disliked yogurt (^^) But now, I love it! I want to become someone who people rapidly get hooked to, after having gotten to experience me time after time. [Does this mean she wants us to consider her like a drug? ww] I guess I'll make this my favorite motto: "someone who's taste becomes more apparent the more you chew on"...4 I'll become a human gum. [Uh, what? w] That's why no matter what your impression of me is, Paripi-chan will give it her all so that you remember me even just a little bit ⊂( *・ω・ )⊃ And also, I'd be glad if you could give me your support and encouragement. Thank you for reading my first blog! It ended up being long! [No kidding... This is by far the longest 2nd gen Hiragana member blog up to date!] Well then, it'll be from Diligent-chan back to Paripi-chan (lol) I think this is the first time for everyone, but please forgive me for my split personality with Paripi and Diligent m(_ _)m Tomorrow, it'll be Nibu Akari, also known as Nibubu!☆ Well then, that's a wrap! This was Paripi-Juju-Nobuko-Suzuppi! Pari Peace ('ω')v P.S. I wonder if there are many people who want know the origins of the nickname "Nobuko" ( ´﹀` ) Which nickname should I use?
This was a... difficult blog to translate. I had a hard time following Paripi's train of thought at some points in her blog post. So I'm not sure this translation properly conveys what she wrote, as there are subtleties that I feel went right above my head. There are some parts where she seems conceited and brags about herself, which I don't often see in idol blogs... I hope I'm just misunderstanding something w
Also, the amount of white space that Paripi uses was even more pronounced than Kosako Nao orz...
She makes a pun on "hajimemashite" and writes "parimemashite." ↩︎
Tomita Suzuka's nickname is "Paripi", which an abbreviation of "party people" and is used to refer to a party-goer or a clubber. ↩︎
She refers to herself as "Majime-chan." Majime (真面目) means diligent/serious/honest. ↩︎
The expression in Japanese is 「噛めば噛むほど味が出る人間」. ↩︎
