Alex is attending one of the most prestigious magic academies in the country, on the orders of his parents of course. Even though Laiz Fier Academy reviles even the name of the only type of magic he's ever been good at. His parents swore he'd find another specialty here, and he'd let himself believe them, like the idiot he is. He's scraping by in classes. Barely. At least he's managed to make a couple of friends and figure out how to sneak into the library stacks to find books that will actually help him hone his skills.
However, Alex realizes now there's a reason why it's not recommended to do your first summoning alone. Because, while he does manage to summon a demon, it doesn't exactly end up in the silvery urn he'd laid in the center of the pentagram.
So now he has a talking, demonic Furby to hide. One that, despite its too-wide eyes and disconcertingly smooth voice, Alex thinks he might be developing feelings for.
1: how and when did you first get introduced to the fashion?
I don’t know how I first learned lolita existed- probably through anime tbh- but I remember getting into it through 2 things; I was browsing Pinterest for historical costuming ideas and I kept seeing these Rococo and Victorian dresses, except they were super short for ballgowns which really confused me (I didn’t figure out that they were lolita but I thought they were so pretty) and second- I saw a girl wearing lolita on my college campus! I wore casual jfashion at the time (Liz Lisa, etc) but even though I knew what lolita was it felt super out of reach and like something only girls in Japan could wear. But there she was, in real life! It was a magical moment. I wish I could remember what exactly she was wearing or that I’d gotten a chance to meet her again but she completely changed my life! I put two and two together and realized I could wear these Victorian-esque dresses myself 🥰
11: what's one item you have that you would never sell?
This is tough, I have a lot of things I really love… I think probably my IW Renoir OP though. It’s definitely the dress I wear the most (it layers really well with like half my closet too..) and unlike a lot of other pieces I love I wouldn’t be able to sell it for a lot of money either.
Like, I would never want to sell my usakumya or my Milky Chan JSK but if I was in a bind financially they could be worth a couple hundred dollars each so if I had to it would make the most sense yknow?
I’d never want to sell my parasol either as it was a gift from my mom <3 and I have a couple vintage Gunne Sax pieces I’d never sell because with how popular the brand has gotten I’d never be able to replace them 😅 and I wear my Gunne blouses constantly too…
19: do you remember the first dress you ever saw? do you still like it?
Angelic Pretty’s Pompadour OP! I remember coming across it and not even realizing it was lolita, just thinking ‘huh someone made a version of Mme de Pompadour’s gown but they cut it so short, I wonder why’ haha. I’d love to own this dress! I’m a huge fan of the original painting and I think the color combo and design is so pretty. It would be a really nice convention/fancy tea party piece.
i just saw someone call oroc himaru morally grey ill eat us both alive he litearlly stole babies so he could commit as many experiemtsn on them as possible he probably was eating people in his dinky ass lab what do u mean morally grey i mean hes litearlly pronouns so i like him what are u on about tho
🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings
hm well since I've spent most of the day reading trigun fic: I think Vash and Wolfwood both have enough weird loner energy + too much energy + amped up superstrength nonsense that they have a tendency to express affection (or at least play with each other) through really nonsense Mortal Kombat* play wrestling that escalates out of nowhere a la kittens attacking each other and makes Roberto (if he exists in ur canon) have weird/alarming flashbacks to college. Meryl is full of enough feral energy to join in but, unfortunately, does not have Plant strength or magic juice to heal everything
*I've never played Mortal Kombat the video game but when I was little my brother and I would play Real Life Mortal Kombat where the only rules were he wasn't allowed to pull my hair and I wasn't allowed to dig my nails in. so. that's what I'm picturing here
🦴 ⇢ is there a piece of media that inspires your writing?
whatever media has recently burrowed into my brain like cordyceps!! both in the sense that it literally inspires me to write fic AND it gives me inspiration on how to tackle shit in my own original fic (e.g., trigun poly-QPR-alien vibes have been making me noodle a lot about Callebero and Sirion and Jisel's relationship [Callebero in this case is, of course, Vash. But like. much less cool. much more hiding in a horse's stall because he accidentally admitted he has feelings. as it goes])
Day 3 of cutegirltober (but it’s Oct 6, that math doesn’t add up, waaah). The prompt for this one was catgirl! I decided to go a little unconventional with it.
Tokyo Mew Mew was my first manga, back when I was a baby in middle school. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart ❤️ I remember begging my mom to let me dye my hair pink like Ichigo; she never let me! I should do it now that I’m an adult! (But ahh, the money…)
