6 and 8 as a general question about all your selfships, and 1 and 2 for Veronica!
6- do you have any alternate timelines or universes in your self-ship? what are they like?
yes! of course some of my alternate timelines are timelines where characters didn't die-- a couple of my f/os are unfortunately dead in canon (but let's pretend the power of love saved them okay? lmao;;; )
the one i keep mentioning as a drabble i'm working on is a more villainous/darker au. kind of as a vent piece, but there's of course self-indulgence in there as well. that's sort of the name of the game with f/os though, i guess! :0
i also like to think about what it'd be like for them to be in the real world with me vs my self inserts in their worlds! it's nice imagining they're out and about with me, or just chilling with me, checking on me, etc. i suppose that counts as an alternate universe in a way!
8- does your f/o seem to match a "type" you might have? how so?
i've been told that some of mine definitely fit the kind of "type" i seem to have. haurchefant is definitely in line with that! i saw someone say that he and sidon were the same genre of character, and i definitely like sidon, so.
edelgard and veronica are both the same kind of genre i think, too, which edelgard does mention in heroes! girls who ultimately just... really need someone by their side, and with support they can leave behind the darkness within them and do the right thing. while of course the villainy is a lovely aspect in some ways, the idea of being able to help them just... makes me really happy, and i don't want them to feel lonely anymore. perhaps a bit overly sentimental?;; (also edelgard has an axe and that's really freakin' cool)
ryuko is a similar genre too i think, but she's kind of like. a variation of the genre. she's someone who needs love and support as well, but her concerns are more self-motivated as opposed to a desire to do good or control others. they all learn a lot on their journeys and i think they're all amazing! <3
eula is another kind of variation on that genre too? spent so much of her life feeling scorned and hated, yet chooses to the do the right thing anyway after others finally give her a chance to. she's strong but still keeps a front up, but once you get to know her you understand her way of thinking more. i think that's really cool too!
if you'd like me to elaborate on anyone specific i'm happy to, but i hope the introduction here was fun, lol
🌟1- does your f/o have any special nicknames for you? what are they? do you have a favorite?
it took her quite a while to keep from just calling me "summoner". so it makes me happy when she just calls me by my name honestly. sometimes she'll hit me with a "dear" or "darling" and it makes me so happy. it's so sweet ;v; she's a bit formal with her pet names still, so it's cute when she tries new ones.
🌟2- do you and your f/o share any hobbies? what are they? do you see one another as rivals, collaborators, something else?
our hobbies are more complimentary than shared, if that makes sense! she enjoys reading the things i write, and i like making cookies and the like for her when we have tea together. we draw together sometimes as well, which is always really fun!
