fandom asks: 6,10 and 12 for DMBJ? (@fan-man-huaisang)
Thanks for the ask, @fan-man-huaisang!
[If anyone else wants to send asks, here is the meme.]
6. when you first think of the fandom, what image comes to mind?
Already answered here.
10. what song do you associate with a ship?
Kind of answered here. Unless a song really smacks me across the face with how perfect it is for a person or a ship, then I don't really tend to associate them that way.
12. favorite hc for a ship, character, etc.
Xiaoge has the BIGGEST sweet tooth. And an appreciation for all kinds of other "unhealthy" food. Because he was never allowed that as a child, and then he didn't allow it to himself as an adult. And it wasn't until meeting Wu Xie and Pangzi that he figured out he was ALLOWED to want things. Even if they were frivolous things. Even if they weren't "good" for him or might get him out of peak fighting condition.
But the longer he was with Wu Xie and Pangzi, the more he understood that they didn't have an ulterior motive for wanting to know what he liked other than wanting him to HAVE the things he likes. The things that make him happy. And one day, once he'd started to trust in that a little, he maybe stole a dessert off of Wu Xie's plate. And when Wu Xie noticed, he wasn't mad (as part of Xiaoge expected he would be), he was DELIGHTED. And so Pangzi started making all kinds of sweet desserts and letting Xiaoge try them to figure out which ones he liked, and when Wu Xie discovered he liked street food, he indulged him in that whenever he caught Xiaoge looking at a food truck.
And between Wu Xie and Pangzi, they discover all of Xiaoge's favorite foods and favorite desserts and always make sure that the things he likes are readily available for him. ^_^
