Welcome!
This is @viajera-entre-realidades' side blog. My main blog is in Spanish, but I wanted to create a blog in English to interact with the international shifting community.
Some things about me and my shifting journey:
• You can call me Mira (not my real name, but my name in one of my DRs). I'm from Spain.
• I heard about reality shifting for the first time in March 2021 (four years ago).
• My main DRs are an original fantasy reality (inspired by all my favorite fantasy worlds) and Boku no Hero Academia. I have other realities I'd like to visit, I'll leave my wishlist at the bottom.
• Have I shifted? Yes and no.
--- I'm pretty sure I used to shift when I was a child (8-10 years old), but as I grew up I convinced myself it was just my imagination.
--- I also believe I had a couple of shifting experiences related to my fantasy DR some years later (before I knew about shifting).
--- I mini-shifted to Boku no Hero Academia for one minute.
--- I mini-shifted to my fantasy DR for a few seconds.
--- I mini-shifted to an unidentified DR for a few seconds/minutes.
--- But I haven't fully shifted since I learned about the term ‘shifting’ and the methods commonly used in the community.
I’ll talk more in-depth about my experiences and DRs in my next posts.
Feel free to ask about my DRs, about shifting... (I'll answer based on my experience and what I've learned in my four years of research).
I'm very shy and I don't like going into debates or controversial topics, I just want to have fun and learn more about shifting. Of course, rude messages, anti-shifters etc will be ignored.
Since this is a side blog, I won't be able to follow back, comment or send asks. If I do, it'll be from my main blog (viajera-entre-realidades).

Disclaimer: The purpose of all these practices is to be restorative & calming whilst connecting you to your DR. It could result in a shift, or just help you in your journey - it doesn't matter either way. Fixating on results is not the point of these practices, so please enter it with an open & gentle mind, & have fun 𖹭

Make your favourite hot drink, even be a lil extra if you want. My go to is a brown sugar oat latte with cinnamon ontop (lord i'm droolinggg ˙𐃷˙). Take ya drinky drink to a calm quiet space where you wont be disturbed - I like to go out to my garden. Close your eyes and take a deep breath in of your drink, let the warmth and aroma calm your mind as you allow your awareness to drift over to your DR.
As you sip your drink, eyes still closed, hold your awareness in your DR. Maybe you just feel the energy of where you are, or you're having mundane thoughts about to do's & recent goings on. Maybe you're just thankful for this moment in your DR, and you hold that gratitude in your chest as you drink. This is a soft moment for you to spend in your desired reality, escaping all worries & responsibilities as you just sip and connect.

A personal favourite of mine! We are going to create the most cosiest comfiest snuggle spot for ourselves - I'm talking blankets, pillows, your favourite candle, ambient noise, whatever. Bonus points if it reminds you of your DR.
Once you've made the cuddle nest of your dreams, get in and get comfy. I like to take a few deep breaths to calm my body, then set a clear intention: "I am cuddling with my S/O in my desired reality". Let it go & turn your mind to your person. Imagine their presence beside you, visualise it or feel it gently - no forcing, let it come to you. I like to focus on different aspects slowly to start getting a feel for them - how much space does their body take up, their temperature, what their energy feels like, their breathing and heartbeat, etc.
When you feel ready, focus on one part of your body that they may be touching - maybe they're rubbing your back, or stroking your head, or holding your hand. You decide, whatever feels right. Spend a few moments really imagining what this may feel like - you may even start to already feel it. Then, stop forcing - just relax into it and the cuddle sesh with your person. Know that you're there & they are with you. I usually like to drift to sleep at this point for a nap, sometimes I wake beside them :)

If you've done yoga then you know how good the flow is when you get into it - your mind shuts off & your body enters this flow state. Its liberating & honestly the perfect space to effortlessly integrate into your DR.
So, grab a yoga mat, or a blanket, even do it on your bed if you're feeling extra cosy. If you haven't done yoga much before, don't be intimidated, anyone can do this! Before starting, mediate for a few mins - calm your breathing, drop into your space and arrive on your mat/blanket. Then set the intention: "I move through this flow as my DR self. I connect with my body, mind & experience". Hold the image or feeling of this in your mind, of being this version of yourself in your DR right now. Then let it go.
You're going to do this practice with your eyes closed the whole time, this way you can fully lean into trusting your body, and being present in your DR. It's not about gaslighting yourself, or constantly checking for a shift - we just want to focus on moving through our body as our DR self, creating that gentle mind body connection while staying present.
If you're experienced with yoga, do your favourite flow & asana's. If you're new, just feel into what your body needs, do some gentle stretches and movements that feel good. There's no right or wrong way to do this, just quiet the mind and let your DR body guide you through intuitive movements for as long as you need.

This one was given to me by my deity Persephone. So, settle down in a quiet space with a notebook and write "Things I'm grateful for today". I like to take a second to tune in and calm my mind with deep breathing, then I set the intention: "I connect with my DR & channel recent memories of moments I'm grateful for". Now with your eyes closed, let go and allow your DR memories to form in your mind. Patience is key here, don't try to force it or think. Memories from your DR will come to you on their own, maybe as a vision, or a sudden thought, or even just a feeling - allow it to come however it wants. I personally get visions.
Once a memory has come to you, spend time in it. Allow it to exist in your mind for a while - maybe more details will present themselves, eventually emotions linked to the memory may come up too. I want you to really hold these associated emotions in your heart, feel them as if you're reliving the memory that came to you. Then, when you're ready, open your eyes and write it in your list. Then we repeat.
If you're are new to this don't be discouraged. The more you do it, the easier it will become, like improving any skill. I try to do this everyday as my bare minimum, and I now get visions instantly as well as random shifts.

Let me know if you got any questions, & please update me if you give these a go!
I highly recommend integrating one or two of these into daily practices.
Throughout this process I have definitely been inspired by these three amazing creators, so definitely check out their blogs! @reverieshifts @reyaint @lalalian
I wanted it to be both aesthetic and practical so hopefully I managed that! It looks best in dark mode on laptop/pc, but it's perfectly functional on mobile.
I also added some extra information that I haven't posted about on here, including two more kingdoms!
Tagging my usual list plus some others who might be interested! @lz-elvyrion @reyaint @reverieshifts @mindscapeofthedivine @snowangelslibrary @lalalian @looselyfast-stargirl @marvelshifter111 @realitycanbewhateveridesire @sireneptune @our-magical-world <3
Right now? To escape this heat and enjoy summer in a nice place with cool weather that doesn't feel like hell.
If that doesn't motivate me to shift, I don't know what will.
I'm thinking of a cool summer rain in my waiting room...
Riding through misty forests in my fantasy DR...
Or training by the sea at Dermlin Island in my Dragon Quest DR, so I also get to spend the summer with Master Avan.
I was looking for something on my blog and found this post:
And then, a few days later, this one:
This was January 2025 I think. I didn't realize it back then, but these two posts are only 4 days apart... why didn't I notice the connection?
So I asked, and the universe (or my subconscious) delivered. OK, I asked for a full shift, but again, a shift is a shift.
This means that intention matters.
So... I know what I have to do, right?
OK, subconscious, rehearsal time is over. Time to actually shift. Come on, it's been 5+ years, I think it's about time. This time I want to FULLY shift, and I'll stay in my DR for as long as I want, thank you. I won't take no for an answer.
⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 𓂃 you’re trying to feel your dr with your cr senses
⠀a lengthy shifting guide
why is it so hard to shift from your cr to your dr but not so much vice versa? you’ve spent the first large chunk of your life believing this reality to be the full extent and foundation of existence. even if you now logically understand this not to be the case, the years spent curating and deepening a mental, emotional, and physical anchor to this reality has warped your perception of reality and instilled in to you the subconscious idea that your cr is the default. and in treating it as the default, the end all be all, and in compromising with it, you reinforce the idea that you are attached or stuck here—that it is even a place to get stuck in in the first place. not only do you trap yourself in this reality and grant it power over you that it does not actually have, you start viewing your cr as the “starting point” too, and shifting as some form of transportation from point A to point B. accompanying this belief is an imagined distance created between your current reality and desired reality. you might’ve already recognised this in yourself; the feeling that your dr is somehow faraway, a place that needs to be travelled to.
it’s important to make and internalise the distinction between a shift in realities as an act of metaphysical travel, and a shift in realities as a shift in focus. imo the former is a much better descriptor for what shifting actually is in essence. i will go into more depth later, but a byproduct of being raised the way you were, growing up knowing nothing but your cr and rooting & centring yourself wholly (confined) within it, is the over identification you end up developing with your cr self. you are not living reality, you are watching it. but after years of the constant unbroken immersion, the two become almost impossible to distinguish. you define yourself by and take on as if they were your own the thoughts and identity and feelings of the “vessel” you are observing, and let them dictate how you experience reality. the lines begin to blur between you; your cr self, and you; your awareness/the observer.
feel your hand. don’t touch it, but notice it’s weight and temperature, or the air around it. now feel the feeler. can you feel yourself? or your body, maybe? now go a step further and feel the one feeling. you probably aren’t fully able to, but this is the observer. “the observer”, or the state of being after breaking the immersion, is you in your natural or purest state. it has also been described as pure awareness, the void state, ego death, sakshi, the self, anatta, and interpreted in different ways across a multitude of different religions and branches of spirituality & philosophy, all used as a means to an end for different things. fyi—i’m not saying you have to completely forsake your cr identity or start ignoring/dismissing your senses or thoughts to shift, just understand that those things don’t define you or your reality. the means to the end here is just getting a point across and hopefully helping improve with the approach you take to shifting. all of this to say, you’re not travelling from point A to point B. point A and B are not places you can (technically) even travel to or exist in, because you’re just watching/observing/being aware of. shifting is not the transportation of a self from one location to another. shifting is simply changing what is focused on/experienced; from one stream of experience to another. a shift in focus.
to summarise, you as in your ego, the you in this cr as you know it, your body, your brain, your thoughts, your identity, don’t actually go or shift anywhere. you, your awareness, in favour of perceiving you, your cr self, the one sat at your computer or phone or whatever reading this right now, starts perceiving a different you/ego/self—one that could have the exact same personality, memories, and thoughts, just in another realty, or one that is a different person entirely. there is only a change or “shift” for the observer, not the cr self or ego. so stop trying to feel your dr with your cr senses. you’re not going to. you’re so immersed in your cr and cr self that you automatically rely on this reality’s bodies’ senses to gauge your success when you try to shift, waiting for your cr self to get a cue that it’s never going to get. the surroundings your cr self feels aren’t going to go anywhere. nor are your senses going to shut off. your cr body will continue to receive sensory information, because that’s what bodies do. so don’t lie there expecting your bedsheets to disappear or magically warp into your dr surroundings or something and feel like you’ve failed when they don’t. shifting is not about somehow willing your surroundings to change or lying in your room forcefully convincing yourself that your senses are feeling something else, it’s about acknowledging what’s beyond those senses. feeling and connecting to what your dr self feels.
if you can still feel your cr, it’s not you feeling it, it’s your cr self. and you are not your cr self.
you can apply this to your thoughts too. your thoughts are no less your cr self’s than your senses are. if you start getting doubts mid attempt or can’t let go of the thought or feeling that you’re not in your dr, remind yourself that you are not your feelings or thoughts or doubts. you are simply observing them. of course your cr self will think that they’re still in their cr, they are. just ignore them and shift your attention elsewhere. your focus and awareness are what dictate what you experience, if you relinquish your focus from your cr and direct it to your dr instead, that’s where you’ll “be”.
obviously there’s no one set way to shift, so if you want you can stop reading here and apply this information to your shifting journey in whatever way suits you. if you’re interested in my method though, here’s the compilation of all this info into practical steps you can actually take to shift.
get comfortable somewhere you won’t be disturbed. close your eyes and focus on what you can see. the light behind your eyelids, shapes, colours, whatever. but instead of automatically interpreting these sensations as belonging to your cr, allow them to become sensory input from your dr. light? that’s coming from the lamp by the xyz in your dr bedroom. or maybe your in a field if that’s a fitting setting for your dr, and it’s the sun shining down on you. shapes? that’s because you’ve been lying down with your eyes closed for a while now, you’re tired after your classes or job or whatever you do in your dr. even if it’s nothing at all, let it be your drs nothing. just feel it. do this for about a minute.
then move onto your body. whether it’s sinking, lightness, tingling, focus on it. and do the exact same as you did for the previous step, interpret it as input coming from your dr. don’t worry if you can still feel your body lying in your bed, because your surroundings aren’t going to change—at least not physically. again, those sensations belong to your cr self, and they don’t prevent awareness from directing itself elsewhere. the goal here is to shift your focus away from them and onto something else, so hyperfocusing on your cr and worrying about your surroundings is counterintuitive. just gently guide your attention back to your dr, really try feel your dr surroundings and what your dr body is currently feeling. if you can’t fully avert your focus away from your cr, that’s fine, at the very least just try receive/tap into the input coming from your dr alongside your cr.
finally focus on what you can hear. if you’ve already managed to make a connection with your dr through your sight and physical senses just build up on what you’ve already got. feel grass tickling your skin? deepen the connection there by focusing on the sound now too, the wind blowing through it. see light behind your eyes? focus on the hum of the lights.
repeat these exercises over and over, deepening the connection with each cycle. if you don’t manage to get anything the first cycle just keep going until you do. it might take some practice. like i mentioned before, after spending so much time here and being in constant attunement with your cr self, the sense that your cr is the default starts to take root and it can be difficult to shake the feeling that you’re just indefinitely “here”. it’s normal for it to take some time to learn how to question this feeling and push past it. since you've never (technically?) been aware of anything outside of this reality, learning how to do so can be a bit like learning how to use a muscle you've never used before.
this method operates on the idea that reality is something that is tuned into through focus & narrowed awareness and not something metaphysically travelled across, so for the most success with it, i’d recommend starting to make a conscious effort to see your dr less like a place and more like a wavelength or channel, a perspective already existing beyond your current focus. shifting to your dr then becomes an effort to notice and receive input from this channel/wavelength, input that already exists out there and that simply needs to be acknowledged. you’re just picking up on what’s already there, feeling something that a version of you already feels.
persist in the belief that reality is observed and flexible. you’re not "stuck" anywhere unless you believe you are.
My plan for this summer is immersing myself in my fantasy DR as much as possible:
Re-watch the shows that inspired or helped develop this DR
Listen to music that reminds me of my DR
Read fantasy books (I'm always doing that anyway)
Do the activities from this list (or as much as I can, since I enter low energy mode in summer and it's too hot to do anything)
Think about my DR as much as I can, daydream about it, and visualize before falling asleep
I'm also planning another challenge called "writing a letter to someone in my DR everyday until I shift" (mainly my s/o but I leave it open in case I feel like writing letters to other people). Again, I don't know how much I'll do, but it sounds like fun! I have this parchment paper, fake wax seals and an old fashioned quill and inkwell that can be perfect for this, to feel like I'm already in my DR! Now I need to find a scented candle that reminds me of my DR (I used to have a Tolkien inspired one that I really liked but they don't sell it anymore...)
Anyway, happy summer! I hope everyone reading this can spend the summer in their DR ♥
OK, it's time to admit it. This is the only place where I can talk about this without being considered crazy (and even in the shifting community, there will be people who think I'm crazy anyway), but here we are.
I believe I shifted here.
I've always considered my fantasy DR to be my "original reality" (though there's no original reality, I know, I know). It's just... the place that feels most like home, and I've had memories of that life from an early age, though I didn't know they were memories yet. And it's where I ultimately want to permashift.
But I don't think I shifted here on purpose. More like someone "shifted me", or in other words, I was sent here against my will.
I know, I know, no one can "shift you", or no one can shift for you... but what if those are only the rules of this reality? What if it works in a different way in my DR?
Hear me out.
I don't have clear memories of this, in fact my last memory from that DR is some kind of "boss battle" against the Dark Lord. And I have two theories.
In my DR, there was a forbidden spell called Exile. They said it could be used to send someone to another world, or another dimension, where they couldn't come back (or at least it was extremely difficult to figure out how to come back). What if I was sent here using this spell? I was too big of a menace and maybe, just maybe, he realized he couldn't defeat me and decided to use that spell as a last resort.
My 2nd theory is that me and my party were about to die in that battle, and one of the deities from that world, who had been helping us on our quest, decided to send us to another world/time in the last moment to save us and give us another chance. And now it's up to us to figure out how to go back and continue fighting to save the world.
(This relates to my theory that my DR friends and s/o also exist in this reality and share the same memories of that life, and it's also connected with my "Better CR" DR where I live with them in a reality similar to this one but better).
It could be something else entirely but I don't really think I died there and chose to come here by myself. But my memories of that night are still blurry. There's also the question of what happened with my physical body in my DR, and to be honest, I don't have an answer.
Things I can't relate with in the shifting community
No hate to people who do these things, of course! If they work for you, it's wonderful! But there are things that seem to be very popular or common in the shifting community, and whenever I see them I can't help but thinking "nope, can't relate", so here is a list, just for fun!
♥ Using face claims
Again, nothing against using them, but for me it would be weird to have someone else's face, especially someone who already exists in this reality (like celebrities or random Instagram users). I'm not saying I have my CR face in every reality, I know I don't, but I also don't feel the need to visualize my exact face (or other people's), I just have a general idea of my look and I'll see the exact details when I'm there.
♥ Scripting dramatic backstories, drama or beef just for fun
I try to stay away from drama in this reality and the others. If it happens it happens, but I'm not going to put myself in situations that I KNOW are going to make me feel bad on purpose. I don't really see the "fun" of it, or the need to "spice things up". But if you like that, it's totally okay, good luck! (BUT I have to admit I like to script dangerous situations sometimes, to give me an excuse to fight side by side with my s/o or even be saved by him, as a moment to bring us closer... but only if the comfort is greater than the hurt!)
♥ Scripting that I'm everyone's crush or that everyone is attracted to me
My social anxiety could never handle so much attention. Having someone try to flirt with me or even knowing they're attracted to me is the most awkward thing ever. Even if I don't have anxiety in my DR, I'd probably hate it. If anything, I'd script that anyone who has a crush on me keeps the distance, sees me as unattainable and never makes a move (except for my s/o of course).
♥ Regretting your first DRs / scripts or finding them cringey
I guess this is more common for people who were REALLY young when they got into shifting but, honestly, my DRs and scripts haven't changed that much from their first versions and I still want to shift to my first DR from 5+ years ago.
I recently saw a post saying something like "can we appreciate the fact that we haven't shifted yet? if we had shifted to our first DR we would have regretted it" and... sorry but no, can't relate. I'm still very attached to my first DR and it's my end goal.
♥ Scripting every single little detail
I'm very freestyle when it comes to scripting, I don't use templates or fancy scripts and just go with the flow. But I understand that many shifters are BIG overthinkers, many have anxiety (including myself) and feel the need to control everything.
But, for example, I don't feel the need to script every single outfit, I just describe my general style and let the universe surprise me with the most perfect outfits when I get there.
♥ Procrastinating on shifting
Look. I'm a BIG procrastinator. I procrastinate on everything, even the things I actually enjoy doing. But not shifting. Shifting is the one thing I've always been consistent with since I started my journey. I've been very organized, journaling my progress, trying new methods, doing shifting attempts at least 2-3 times per week. So I've never been able to relate with those shifters who spend more time planning their DRs than actually trying to shift. And yes, I also spend a lot of time scripting and watching motivation videos, I enjoy it a lot, but that doesn't stop me from shifting at night (or rather in the early morning, it's my preferred time now). One thing doesn't exclude the other.
The same goes for spending more time chatting on character.ai than shifting. As an artist, I'm very much against AI and stopped using bots or anything AI related a long time ago. We don't need to destroy the planet and kill our braincells in one go to shift or manifest.
♥ Asking other people for help with your script
Like asking for help to choose your DR name or ideas for your superpowers. Maybe it's because I've had memories from my other realities from an early age, but these things just come naturally to me as soon as I start thinking about them, and if something doesn't, I just don't script it and wait until I shift to find out. I can't imagine asking strangers on the internet what my name is, and it makes me think that many shifters still treat scripting their DR self as creating an OC.
I've also never struggled to "create an interesting backstory" (you don't create it, you just remember it). Again, if it doesn't flow naturally, I don't script it, because I know I'll remember it when I'm there. It doesn't have to be interesting or dramatic, I'm not writing a novel, just remembering the details of another life. Sometimes my life is not interesting until I meet my DR friends, s/o or found family.
♥ Feeling guilty about permashifting or leaving this reality / family / whatever behind
I've never felt attached to my CR. I've been wanting to leave this reality all my life, long before I even knew shifting was real and possible, so... no. Not me. May I end up missing my family when I'm there? Who knows, but then I can always come back. But remember, you're not leaving anyone behind because you're not "going" anywhere, you just choose to be aware of a different reality, a version of you always stays here, they won't even notice.
Ironically, I used to feel guilty about leaving this reality when I thought I'd have to physically leave (before I knew about shifting) and thought my mom would be so worried when I disappeared out of the blue. But now that I know how shifting works, I'm completely at peace.
♥ Worrying about getting stuck in your DR and not being able to come back
This seems to be the most common fear among baby shifters and, honestly, I wanted to permashift before I even knew it was a possibility, so the thought never scared me. In fact, I was kind of disappointed when I started doing research about shifting and most content creators said it was not possible (old misinformation). Not coming back here? Where do I sign up for it??
this method is very simple. it's for people who don't feel like organizing a whole method or putting in a lot of effort(because you don't need to), and people who have very messy brains that are always thinking and never shut up. it's all about affirming and optionally visualizing.
step 1 : get comfy. lay down, go to bed, do it awake, eyes opened, idc. whatever position works best for you.
step 2 : start affirming. "holy shit i'm in my DR!! this is crazy i actually shifted, oh my goody goodness this is for real!!!" exactly like that, i'm not kidding literally just go crazy with it.
step 3 : Now as your affirm, start to throw in what is currently happening in your DR, you can visualise as well, but you don't have to!
if your shifting to an mha DR for example "holy moly i'm recieving my first tailored hero suit!!! holy moly i'm getting ready for training!! blah blah whatever you want"
and now just do that till you shift or whatever, you can also do this for reaching the void state or any other state you want if you so please!
this method helps me a lot as someone who has a LOT of thoughts, my own thoughts overlap sometimes and doubts, getting sidetracked, etc can be a big problem for me. this method helps a lot, if you're thoughts are loud, you just have to be louder, yknow. so yeah.
have fun shifting!
NOTE: I haven't shifted yet, this is based on my script and ideas for this DR
OK, I have three Hogwarts DRs but this (my Hogwarts teacher DR) is the "main one" and the first one I wanted to shift to. I also have a Marauders DR (scripted) which is actually an alternate reality to this one, because in the main one I didn't really go to Hogwarts with them and I didn't know Lupin beforehand. And I may or may not script a third DR where I'm a student in the golden trio era and I'm a different person (not scripted yet and I don't really have a clear idea of it yet).
In this DR I'm the new Herbology teacher at Hogwarts. For some reason Prof. Sprout decided to take a year off or something (maybe to study exotic magical plants somewhere, I'm not really going into detail in my script and I leave it up to the multiverse). I also stand in for her as head of Hufflepuff house, since I used to be a Hufflepuff when I was a student.
As you can guess, I'm very good with plants, it's like I can communicate with them and understand what they need easily, and of course I do sing to them (my hobby is singing in every reality). I also have a good hand with magical creatures. I like wearing greens and browns and earth colors, being surrounded by plants, reading and creating herbal tea blends.
I'm shifting to Harry's 3rd year at Hogwarts, so yes, I start working there at the same time as Lupin, and yes, he's my S/O, we end up falling in love through the school year. We both are kind, quiet, sensible and don't get angry easily, so we get along well from the first day. We often collaborate in each other's clases (like lending him dangerous plants so his students can practice their defense spells) and have tea together when we have free time.
My script is not very detailed, but I have this memory of having to fight some kind of giant, dangerous plant that went out of control and started invading the corridors of Hogwarts (similar to Devil's Snare), and trying to protect some students. I was struggling until Lupin arrived and helped me with an advanced DADA spell. When we finally stopped the plant and made sure the students were alright, we were so relieved that we spontaneously hugged each other... and that simple moment brought us closer after some time of mutual pining. Maybe that's why the memory has stuck with me.

As in breaking the law, I don't think so, I'm very respectful of the rules and I used to be a good student.
5 ★ what song reminds you of your s/o?
Songs by Laura Pausini in general, like Inolvidable and many more.
6 ★ what makes you the happiest?
Singing.
7 ★ what makes you the saddest?
Injustice, seeing good people suffer.
8 ★ do you have a role model? who is it?
I admire Mr. Edgeworth a lot!
9 ★ who knows you best?
Possibly Mr. Wright. I feel so comfortable around him and he's so kind, I feel like I can open up and be myself.
10 ★ how comfortable are you in the center of attention?
When I'm on a stage, I'm surprisingly comfortable. I love singing and making people happy with my voice. When I have to participate in a trial I stay on the side as an assistant, but if I have to intervene I try to imagine it's just another stage.
11 ★ have you ever been in danger? what happened?
It happened when I witnessed a crime by accident. The culprits noticed and went after me later on. Luckily everyone worked together to protect me, especially Mr. Edgeworth, Mr. Gumshoe and Mr. Wright! At the end, the culprits cornered me in an alley and there was even gunfire, Mr. Edgeworth ended up taking a bullet for me, but thank goodness he was alright and survived.
12 ★ if you have an s/o, how did you get together?
It's complicated. But no, I'm not with anyone at the moment.
13 ★ what's your favorite song?
Oh it's hard to choose, but I really love Laura Pausini's songs... Maybe Las Cosas que Vives.
Answer these questions as your DR self (One Piece version)
[ Original post ]
I actually have two One Piece DRs, one where I'm a canon character I kin, and another where I'm another version of myself. This is based on my script for the 2nd one.
1 ★ who's in your friend group?
Coby and Helmeppo, basically.
2 ★ what activity do you find yourself doing on the weekends?
It's hard to have free time even on weekends, but if we're at the marine base or an island, we go out and explore, have dinner outside (Helmeppo loves trying fancy restaurants wherever we go), visit a local market or participate in local festivals if there are any. I love karaoke, but Coby is shy and it's hard to convince him to go.
If I'm alone and have free time, I love to spend the weekend sewing! I usually make new clothes or accessories for myself, I'm very crafty, and I like to sing while I work on them.
3 ★ are you in school? if so, how are those grades going?
Nope... I'm a marine! I started working as a cook at a marine base, but after telling Coby that my dream was to become a marine, he convinced me to enlist. Work is hard, and Garp's training is even harder, but I learn fast and I'm doing my best!
4 ★ have you ever been in REALLY deep trouble?
As in breaking the law? I don't think so. I'm not the kind of person to break the rules unless it's a life or death situation.
Coby and I may or may not have sneaked out of the base to go stargazing, but thank goodness we didn't get caught.
5 ★ what song reminds you of your s/o?
Eyes on me (I thought about it the first time I sang at a karaoke and saw the way he looked at me)
6 ★ what makes you the happiest?
Singing, dressing up in costumes I make, and spending time with Coby.
7 ★ what makes you the saddest?
Seeing injustice and not being able to do anything, even as a marine.
8 ★ do you have a role model? who is it?
Captain Tashigi! She has been my idol and role model from the first time I heard about her, even before meeting her in person. When that happened, I really had a fangirl moment... so embarrassing. But she's amazing! Such a strong, brave and kind woman... I want to be like her someday.
9 ★ who knows you best?
Right now, I guess Coby. We spend a lot of time together and have a lot in common (like being shy, and our shared dream of becoming great marines but starting from zero because none of us thought we were good enough before enlisting), so I feel like I can be myself around him and open my heart. I've told him about my dreams, my hobbies, my secret talents... and I feel comfortable around him to bring out my funny side.
10 ★ how comfortable are you in the center of attention?
It depends! I'm usually a very shy person, and I have a secret talent to go unnoticed if I want to, which is often. But I'm also very artistic, and I use my artistic skills to express myself when I can do it in words. One of the things I love the most is music, so I don't mind going on stage to sing, or play the piano if we find a piano bar and they let me try it. I kind of enjoy some attention from time to time.
11 ★ have you ever been in danger? what happened?
As a marine, many times. Actually fearing for my life, twice.
The first time was when I was in a shipwreck. I could escape in a small boat and was rescued by the Straw Hat pirates, who took me on their ship to the nearest island and were surprisingly nice to me the whole journey (that's actually where I learned to cook, their cook was so kind to give me a masterclass to pass the time before we docked).
The second time was during one of my missions as a marine, when we were fighting some pirates and heavily underestimated them. Luckily Coby arrived right on time to save my life, I'll always owe him. What happened after that is... Coby finally felt brave enough to confess to me, after he almost lost me.
12 ★ if you have an s/o, how did you get together? who asked who out?
Back at the Marine base, Coby came to ask me if I was alright, and then told me he had had a crush on me practically from the first day we met, but was always too shy to confess (even though Helmeppo constantly pressed him to do it). But that day, after he saw me in danger and almost lost me, he decided it was time to be brave and ask me out. Of course I said yes, I also liked him a lot, and it was such a cute and sweet moment. We ended up sharing our first kiss, and decided it would be best to keep our relationship a secret to avoid getting in trouble or unnecessary attention. So... lots of secret meetings, secred dates if we have a day off, holding hands when nobody can see us, and kissing in the broom closet. It's cute and fun, and I enjoy the thrill. His kisses are the sweetest, and well, he's the sweetest and kindest person I've ever met.
13 ★ what's your favorite song?
Endless Story, I sing it all the time and play it on the piano whenever I can.
