Hi! Sooo new FortPeat fan here! (I just finally got around to watching LITA and I adored them as PrapaiSky!) I’ve seen your blog come up a lot with gifs and thoughts and just general info on FortPeat/PrapaiSky so I thought you might be the best person to ask! Sorry if you’ve already answered this before!
So I’m obsessed with how absolutely down bad Fort is for Peat and I’m wondering if there are any interviews or something like that where Fort has talked about his first impression of Peat, like what he thought when he first saw him and what he thought when he found out they would be working together as a pair. (Also curious about Peat’s first impression of Fort). And since Fort is so besotted with Peat I was curious if he’s ever said anything about when it was he fell for Peat or realized he liked him. Or if he’s said anything about why he likes Peat and what it is about him that makes him so clingy/lovey with him all the time!
(Also I have zero desire to put pressure on the idea of them being a real life couple or push the idea that Fort really is in love with Peat, I just truly enjoy their dynamic and friendship and I enjoy a good rps, I figure this probably doesn’t need to be said but I don’t want to give the impression that I’m at all interested in being invasive into their actual relationship whatever it may be)
(Also also I’ve seen mentions of a PrapaiSky discord server on your blog, does it still exist/is it still active and are you taking new members 👀)
Welcome to the Babyfeat fandom! And congrats on LITA being your gateway drug - I'm sure they'll continue to bring you much joy!
I'm very flattered that you've approached me with your question. And no worries at all, I'm very happy to help where I can. Though I will warn you that my memory may be a little muddy because of the sheer amount of content I consumed back then so apologies in advance if I haven't quite remembered something correctly.
Fort did a live once where he described their audition for LITA and their first meeting. "I met him on casting day. I didn't know he received the role of Sky. I realised that he was my partner for the afternoon casting. He was cute." Footage from their audition process is captured in the MMY vlog here (timestamp 41.20).
I really enjoy this interview as it's very early on in their partnership and they talk about this. The thing about Fort is he's always been this clingy and affectionate, practically from day one it seems and it's only gotten more aggressive with time 😂. Peat was comparatively shy/reserved at first so he often didn't appear to reciprocate, but he also played into seeming annoyed or irritated by the attention - which mirrored the characters they were playing at the time. So I do think that was somewhat intentional during their LITA era. Peat's a lot more relaxed and goofy now and I think that's in huge part to Fort who is equally silly and makes him feel at ease.
They have both also said that once they got to know each other better, they realised how similar they were, though this isn't always apparent upon first impressions.
The Fortpeat discord does still exist, although it's mostly idle these days, with the occasional person posting here and there but nowhere near as active as it used to be. I'm not the one who manages it, so I'll pop you a link privately if you still fancy checking it out.
Hope that helps! And feel free to get in touch anytime 😄❤️
