Ask Tokoyami Fumikage and Dark Shadow (INBOX: EMPTY)

[madbanquetofdarkness]

hi!! I wanted to ask which one of 1-As students you get along with the best?? like who would you say you have the best synergy with?? thanks!!

I get along fairly well with most of the other students, but Koda and Shoji are my two closest friends. 

As far as synergy goes, Dark Shadow is a versatile Quirk. I’m sure I could find synergy with every student in Class 1-A... except for one.

what is your family like?

Well... how should I describe it...? My family is...

...unusual.

Sketchtober - Day 20

Today’s prompt was scarecrow! …I gotta level with ya. Today was also an update day for Pokemon Go and Team Fortress 2, both of which I play. So I rushed the HELL out of this one. If Team Fortress’ update had actually worked, I might not have drawn anything at all.

Hey Tokoyami do you like Asui Tsuyu?

Of course I do. Asui is a strong and capable hero. I’d be surprised if anyone in the class didn’t like her. I in particular have been teamed up with her for the final exams against Ectoplasm and the battle trial against Mineta and Yaoyorozu, and I feel I owe my successes in those trials to her. I truly value our friendship.

((I’m not a shipper... at all. That said, of all the ships I’ve seen, Tokoyami x Asui is probably the one I dislike the least because both characters are awesome and all the fanart I’ve seen of it so far has been tasteful.

...I’m sure once I accidentally find porn of it, I’ll hate it as much as I hate every other ship, but let’s cross that bridge when we come to it.))

now I wanna see the adventures of tomoyami and midnight thanks to you

Can do!

Okay, two things I should tell you guys.

I hate Mineta. I friggin’ hate Mineta. He might show up on the blog from time to time, but he will never be happy on my blog. Ever. 

I got a new scanner! …which scans so well that it picks up every flaw in my inking. I’ve tried to mess around with some Photoshop filters to save it, but it just doesn’t look as good as it used to. I really wanted to keep this blog traditional art, but I might have to move to digital art.

Hopefully neither of those things are too disappointing. Thanks for following the blog!

Hello! If you or Dark shadow saw a naked woman, would you have nosebleeds? Or maybe look annoyed?

Looking annoyed is much more likely than having a nosebleed, given that neither Dark Shadow or I have a nose. 

still… why one would even ask such a thing to a high school student… the world is full of strange people indeed…

[madbanquetofdarkness]

Don’t mind me, just trying some digital art...

What was your Hero Internship like?

((No one can convince me that this isn’t what happened.))

((I don’t normally reblog gifs but I haven’t had anything to post lately and Dark Shadow’s such a bro I couldn’t resist))

[madbanquetofdarkness]

do either of you like video games? if so what ones?

“Dark Shadow prefers to watch - video game controllers aren’t exactly made for hands like his. I, on the other hand…”

[madbanquetofdarkness]

do either of you like memes

I gotcha covered!

[madbanquetofdarkness]

this is uh,, for a friend: when tokoyami can't sleep, do he and dark shadow stay up and gossip? and if so, what about??

((Sorry this took so long! Been kinda busy…))

[madbanquetofdarkness]

Tokoyami seems like a pretty reserved guy. Dark Shadow, does Tokoyami's behavior/personality differ at all when it's just the two of you? Does he have any embarrassing habits?

Kekekeke! You have no idea! Get this - he writes poetry. 

*clears demon throat*

My true self cannot be understood,I keep it ‘neath cowl and hood,For in me lies a pure darkness (darn it, nothing rhymes with darkness)For in me lies a darkness pure,Of that I am so truly sure.My true self must stay hid,Kept in a jar with a tight lid,Lest all in its path be consumed,And all surrounding it be doomed.My true self bound up tight,Lost in a world with no light,May no one see even a tiny piece,And may my darkness never release.

KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE! Who writes this junk?

[madbanquetofdarkness]

hi tokoyami! if you don't mind me asking, what was it that made you want to become a pro hero? ^^;

Of course I don’t mind you asking. Thank you for the question!

There was a long period of time where I didn’t know how best to use Dark Shadow. The fact of the matter is that Dark Shadow frightens people, and people are also frightened by my affinity for the darkness. 

What was the best use for someone like me, who inspires fear?

Eventually, I saw a few particular pro heroes - the kind that are sometimes called ‘dark’ heroes. Ectoplasm, Gang Orca, Blood King… those three and others have terrifying appearances and powers, but the masses aren’t afraid of them. In fact, they alleviate fear. A person who is in danger will be calmed by the sight of a hero, even if they are a ‘dark’ hero.

I finally realized - Dark Shadow didn’t have to be a symbol of terror, and neither did I. It doesn’t matter if Dark Shadow or I appear frightening. If my actions are noble and just, people will understand that they have nothing to fear.

I followed you based on the name, then I read your posts and I think you are awesome Mod! For tokoyami, does dark shadow ever interrupt a date or when you're just chilling with your s/o / crush?

I always try to be wary when it comes to Dark Shadow. For the most part, though, socializing isn’t a problem. Though I too am more comfortable in the darkness, most date settings are well-lit enough that Dark Shadow is fairly tame.

…However, there was one incident in a movie theater that shall not be spoken of.

((OOC: Thank you! You’re too kind!))

[madbanquetofdarkness]

What did you look like as a tiny birb?

What?! I can’t believe my first question would try to pry into the darkest secrets of my hidden - wait, Dark Shadow! What are you doing?! No, don’t - 

Fine. That’s me at age six. Dark Shadow was afraid of camera flashes back then…

Ask Tokoyami and Dark Shadow - Open for Business

This blog is now accepting asks! Ask either Tokoyami or Dark Shadow any questions you want. More information below the Read More.

Welcome to the blog! I’m the mod, @spooky-ghostwriter. There are no restrictions on what you can and cannot ask, but I will be keeping this blog PG-13. 

I haven’t been drawing Tokoyami for very long, and none of the expression icons I have look nearly as good as the picture above. So please bear with me as I probably change my style a dozen times trying to find a way to consistently draw Tokoyami that I like.

I think that’s about all I needed to say. Thanks for reading, and feel free to ask Tokoyami and Dark Shadow whatever you want.
