Helllooooo for the ask game:

4 <- (you seem like someone with cool shoes)

34

40

4. what type of shoes do you wear?

ok what you said is the funniest statement bc. on one hand, i’m filipino, we’re contractually obligated to like shoes. but on the other, my feet have decided the only thing i can wear without pain is crocs.

i do have great crocs tho. slip-resistant green/pink marbled with squishmallow jibbits, and platforms with seafoam/white marble. i also have boring black ones i guess.

34. what’s your book/movie/tv guilty pleasure?

tv- not a guilty pleasure for anyone else, it’s midsommer murders, but my wife isn’t into crime shows so getting to watch it feels like an indulgence lol.

movie- sky captain and the world of tomorrow. i will not elaborate.

book- ok listen. listen. i know they’re bad i know they’re awful i’m asexual this isn’t about the sex or the kink when i say i read sean michael’s velvet glove series for the plot i SWEAR IM SERIOUS. tell us more about the wider universe! the kink club in space is all well and good but what is happening out there???? anyway they’re tropey GARBAGE and i keep reading them.

40. what’s the most interesting item you own?

listen when you vend at fairy markets and stuff you invitably make friends with the Bone People. and when you run into an object that isn’t their usual fare but still pierces your cold dead soul with such a deep visceral want to possess that you suddenly understand hauntings—you have to buy it. you just have to. and that is why i own a racoon mandible that has been fully bedazzled head to toe with sparkly crystals on a long hot pink chain. if i can fucking find it. it’s only my most treasured possession. surely it’s around here somewhere.

10, 14, 33 for the questions asks! 💚

10. what’s your favourite piece of clothing you own?

so for our wedding last year, my wife and i made matching sweatshirts with the date that say ‘to the moon and back’ and ‘to the stars and back again’ with stitch and angel on them. naturally, my wedding sweatshirt isn’t my favorite, i stole my wife’s and wear it all the time XD; i’ll have to make some new ones eventually to make up for it…

i also have a pair of leggings with pastel ice creams and bats that say “oh no” and a bunch of cute stuff, and they’re so soft and perfect. i got them from a local vendor at mermagic con so i’ll probably never find them again but they’re the BEST.

14. do you collect anything?

health problems? lmao. my wife’s a big collector so i like to encourage hers more than collect myself, i just having one or two trinkets of Thing I Like. i just lose and break things so much that collecting is pointless. i can’t even keep a single book series intact, i end up lending them out or reading them to death.

one big collection that we do together is our sea creature squishmallow family though. they all have names and a family tree and plotlines when we get new versions of the same one XD

33. do you prefer silver or gold jewelry?

gold! i look better in gold with my coloring for one, but i just can’t resist a bright yellow gold in any context. hoshiumi kourai, my fav character from haikyuu, is white and gold and light blue coded and it seems insane because that was already my favorite thing—white, gold, pastels and iridescent—but then he comes along with all of that already. insane.

that being said if there is a third option, rose gold is best, colors always colors!
