Yes yes hmhmhm more >:3c
7 (i gotta ask this every time), 11, 12, 17, 18, 21, 28 for Juno.
oc ask game
yeonaixho my beloved! he lives in my heart and he pays no rent. like with sadihak im gonna answer these with young gods juno unless the answers would be drastically different with tourn juno (tho ygs juno is closer to tourn juno than sadihak lol)
7. favorite animal? why?
juno is associated with honeybees! so, like sadihak, im just putting that for his default favorite animal. there's a ton of reasons juno is associated with honeybees, but most notably are the fact they pollinate flowers (and a certain other savant whos name starts with j and ends with ymaiyri has floral symbolism), and the fact i love bees. it also fits color wise, and i generally like juno being associated with insects (especially cool ones like bees!) i think juno likes all animals tho, and he probably has a soft spot for elderly cats.
11. what do they have in common with you? how are they different? would you get along with them?
like all my characters, juno is a lot like me. some fun character traits of mine i gave him are love of soup, skill with embroidery, and the fact he simps for evil women. i'm not nearly as good at gardening as juno, and hopefully not ever as sad as he is, but i think we'd get a long. juno gets along with most people, so it's hard not to be his friend.
12. how long have they been around? do you know their birthday? is their birthday the day you made them or another day? what do they think of celebrating birthdays?
juno was the first young gods character i created, and he came from a dream! i think i came up with him sometime around mid-late October of 2021, but his birthday is sometime around early march since he's a pisces (we just missed his bday... sorry juno :[ ). he doesn't care much about birthdays- of all the savant, he's the oldest, so he's had even more time to get sick of celebration. juno also isn't fond of being the center of attention, so i'd think he'd want to avoid even thinking about his birthday.
17. how did they spend their summers/free time as a child?
juno's childhood was a very, very long time ago, and in canon he remembers almost none of this, but he grew up in a small valley town secluded from the outside world. since summer is a busy time for farmers, most of his summers were spent working fields with his mom. in the colder months he'd usually apprentice for the local healer, but probably not in the summer. he also spent considerable time getting up to shenanigans with the other local kids. all this was before he went blind, which is a completely different story.
tourn juno had a very different childhood. he spent most of his life at the high temple, shadowing his mother as a young boy and in later years just following petrai around. he probably spent at least one year training to be a stablehand, though that failed when everyone realized how bad with horses juno is. like his young gods counterpart, juno spent a lot of time getting in trouble, tho he also spent hours learning everything he could about healing and medicine, which led to him becoming a temple dedicant in his later teen years (not something most peasant boys accomplish). again, this is all before he went blind.
18. their opinion on lying, stealing, and killing?
like with jymaiyri, i'm gonna separate these into three different responses
lying: juno is willing to lie if he can justify it, and he often is. he has an alarmingly liberal relationship with the truth. after all, he hid his identity for thousands of years, without much regret. juno would rather believe a happy lie than a harsh truth, and will often outright deny that bad things are happening, or even that he's done bad things. it causes a lot of conflict with the more honesty-inclined of his peers, and even some inner turmoil. he really is full of drama.
stealing: juno is pro-theft because he thinks its funny /j. of all the savant, juno's the most 'one of the people', and he tries his best to live modestly without any attachments to possessions. you could rob him and he probably wouldn't care unless you stole his staff or his herbs (mostly bc he needs those to help other people). the most important things in juno's life are people, and you can't steal those without it being murder. during his three-thousand-year-long mental health disappearance, he probably took part in a few thefts for medicines or food or whatever, always on the behalf of the less fortunate.
killing: on paper, juno is very against killing. he's a healer, after all, and it's in the job description not to murder. however, like jymaiyri, he believes fairly strongly that the ends can justify the means, and if he believes that killing one person could lead to others being saved, he'll kill. his goal is to make sure that the most people are saved, and he's unwilling to comprimise that. he's against murder without cause, though.
21. their favorite place to be?
juno is a traveller at heart, and therefore doesn't have one place he feels more at home at than others. he's of the belief that if he makes a place his home, it's his home. however, there's a few places he's especially fond of. he especially likes his home temple in telvrei, where everything is exactly where he likes it and designed to his tastes. back in the day, he considered jymaiyri's palaces in ta llyanaido to be a second home, simply because his lover was there and he spent alot of time there. he misses his childhood home dearly, and visits the ruins of his town frequently, but doesn't often stick around long. there's not much to see there, anyways.
28. how do they show that they care about someone? how do they express that they don't like someone?
juno likes and cares about almost everyone he meets, but if he really cares for you, you'll know. juno can be incredibly physically affectionate with his close friends- he wants to cup your face and hold your hand and give you hugs and braid your hair- all of it. he's like this with both platonic friends and romantic partners. he also likes to just spend time with someone- quality time is one of his love languages, and he thinks a peaceful evening spent together is one of the most affectionate things a person can give. undying promises of loyalty are also his thing. you know juno likes you when he starts staying stuff like 'i will be by your side forever, so you'll never have to hurt again'.
there's very few people juno doesn't like, and even then, he'll often try to mend things with whoever he's upset with, but if he really doesn't like you, if he truly thinks you're beyond reason, he abandons all niceness (which, for juno, amounts to cursing you out and gossiping about you behind your back)
ty for the request! i love to write about juno so this was super fun :]

Any podcast recs?
woo yes!! i love podcasts!! i’ll get right into my favs :D click the read more bc it gets kinda long
The Adventure Zone
If youre on tumblr youve probably heard of this already. It’s created by the McElroys, and follow the adventures of Taako, Magnus and Merle and a lot of fun other side characters all voiced by Griffin. Its hilarious and full of goofs, but the story it weaves Will make you cry by the end, there are so many plot twists, gays, found family tropes, its just ugh. amazing. very good to listen to if u want a laugh tbh, but the episode are pretty long, up to an hour and a half. but the story is beautiful, the characters are amazing, n i feel like im constantly laughing at jokes i dont even understand bc the mcelroys r Just That Funny. there are also other arcs u can listen to, like amnesty, which is about a trio of monster hunters, commitment, which is about superheros, and dust, which is a western supernatural mystery!
EOS 10
This is for sure one of my favourite podcasts ever. The characters are so easy to love and all so complex with very human issues, except its set in space surrounded by aliens so the shenanigans are never-ending and all so, so entertaining. the general plot is about dr. dalias, a surgeon on the space station EOS 10, and his friends and coworkers dr. urivdian, jane, and levi the hypochondriac, chaotic alien prince (and akmazian, the gay space pirate). the relationships between the characters are to die for, the gays are beautiful, and its fucking hilarious. 10/10 recommend, the episodes are relatively short between 10-15 minutes so its very easy to listen to.
Wolf 359
This was the second podcast I ever listened to, and will forever be held close in my heart. it starts off as a funny, light-hearted podcast based on the logs of communications officer doug eiffel, an astronaut aboard the USS Hephaestus, a spacecraft with only 2 other crewmembers, commander Minkowski and scientist Hilbert. eventually more characters are introduced such as captain lovelace, and the SI-5 crew Jacobi, Kepler, and Maxwell. the series goes from something entertaining and joking to a story with an unfolding plot that honestly blows me away, morally grey characters and the complex relationships between everyone, and amazing character development. the episode start out pretty short but they get longer as the plot progresses. you’ll laugh too many times to count, find yourself crying near the end and wonder how you got here, and fall in love w the characters, the jokes and the mystery. i cant recommend it enough (eiffels development ugh my fucking boy…..)
The Penumbra Podcast
This podcast is so fucking fun. its a detective-noir type storyline set far into the future on mars. it follows PI Juno Steel, a detective in Hyperion City, and all the cases he lands and has to solve. its intriguing as hell, the characters draw you in completely bc theyre so layered and complex but so easy to love, its gay as FUCK (theres only one straight person on mars lol) and its v enjoyable listening to juno’s character development and his interactions with other characters (namely nureyev and rita). im literally never bored listening to this podcast, and if the detective theme wouldn’t typically be your thing i swear you should listen to it anyway because with how its set on mars, in space, in the future, there are things youd never imagine and worldbuilding so smooth and surprising and fun. there are hilarious moments, tragic moments, heartbreaking moments, heart-healing moments, and just. the whole thing is brilliant dude. i adore it. (theres also a lot of mini episodes set in different universes like old western lesbians, and the Second Citadel, which runs alongside juno’s universe and is kind of a knights vs monsters fun thing but theyre also all bisexual lol).
Time Bombs
This is a mini-podcast made by the same creators as wolf 359. its only 3 episodes long so if u want something quick to listen to this is v good! its about a bomb squad on new years eve as Simon Teller tries to break the record of most bombs defused in a year. its very funny, easy to listen to, and just a fun lil thing!
Lake Clarity
Now this boy is a horror podcast. Its about a bunch of teens who go up to the abandoned Camp Clarity for a trip together before they graduate. they uncover abandoned military bases and a conspiracy, mutations and monsters, and get picked off one by one. i admit i never finished the second season but i greatly enjoyed the first! it was interesting (and they acknowledged the slightly basic set up in show a lot lol) but i like it!
King Falls AM
I only recently started listening to this one but its so good dude!! its set in a radio show in King Falls, hosted by Sammy and Ben. Sammy just came to the town from the city and Ben has lived in King Falls his whole life: we listen to the strange events happening around town as they happen and ben and sammy report on them, listen to the residents send in calls about their weird situations, meet new characters, and get a lil freaked out by some spooky things! its funny, its odd, its creepy at times, its the perfect blend of humour, supernatural, and horror!
And now for some honourable mentions
Welcome To Nightvale
This is one you’ve probably heard of as well. WTNV is a radio show hosted by Cecil Palmer, a citizen of the town of Nightvale, which has got to be the weirdest town in the world. its delightfully strange, entertaining, fun to listen to, and i havent finished it but i like it and i know a TON of other people adore it, its v popular!!
The Magnus Archives
Another horror podcast, I never got very far through it (mainly bc i just. struggle to listen to jon’s voice and accent rip) but the gist of it is a british archivist is going thru some archives n recording the stories. its full of monsters, supernatural stuff n creepy stories. people love it, if ur into horror n creepy stuff then i recommend this one!
The Bright Sessions
Another one I never got very far through, it follows dr. bright, a therapist for the ‘strange and unusual’ and her sessions with various super-powered people, for example empaths, time-travellers, etc etc. im not sure why i didnt get v far thru bc it is v intriguing and has a lot of potential, im sure id pick it back up one day! i think it could have a lot of cool overlapping storylines if u dig that!
Directive
This short podcast is very interesting, its about a man who is on a spacecraft alone looking after people in stasis for many years, and isnt allowed any real contact with other people on the ship outside of a video call once a night. there are plot twists, you will randomly find yourself crying by the end of it bc of the raw emotion, and it can be a little slow in the start but its worth the quick listen!! it goes into the effects of isolation and moral dilemmas on a person and is v interesting!
And now just some ones on my to-listen list that have been highly recommended to me!
Limetown
Wooden Overcoats
Within the Wires
Rabbits
Alice Isn’t Dead
