Witch, trick or treat, and corn maze!!!

Witch: If you could have any superpower, what would it be? 

Either to fly or to shapeshift.  Actually, flying kind of goes hand in hand with shapeshifting, so...

Trick or Treat: What was your favorite Halloween costume? 

Like, that I’ve ever worn?  Uhh.  Tbh I don’t know it’s been a while since I’ve dressed up as anything really.  My default is usually kitty ears and tail or devil horns and tail.

Corn Maze: What is your favorite autumn activity? 

Wearing sweaters and actually being able to sleep underneath my blanket without overheating.  I like going to the Haunted Fort Night in our area too, actually.  Last year they did a carnival theme, and the year before someone I knew was volunteering but I didn’t KNOW they were volunteering and they whispered my name in my ear while dressed as a monster and I flipped right the fuck out it was great.

Which of the defenders is the Most Gay

What a good question tbh

Alphas: Toss up between Olly and Norman.  Olly actually has a wife tho so I’mma say she wins.

Betas:  Arin is Pretty Fucking Gay but I think Katherine is pretty up there too?  Let’s say Arin because she just -clenches fist- loves girls so fucking much

4, 16, and 18, for the character design thing!

4. Any minor characters that have either taken overor branched off into their own stories? 

Listen.  Listen.  No joke, Toni was a fairly insignificant side character at first.  Today he is, spoiler alert, a literal god in his universe.  Taken over is putting it lightly.  This also happened with Julia from Free Spirits, who I ended up loving and making a more regular character.  I’m barring it from happening to Anthony, who was a character that was supposed to be in Free Spirits but I cut out his scene but GOD I love him so much that I might repurpose him.

16. Is there a character of yours who’s a realstruggle to write/draw? Why do you think that is? 

Alice from South Pawed and Abby from Lionheart come to mind.  Also Marina from Esurience.  Idk what it is but I have a HELL of a time getting into their heads and I don’t know why.

18. Is there anything you really wish you could do,character-design-wise, that you feel is outside your current skillset? Aconcept that you wish you could pull off but are uncertain about? 

Mmm nothing comes to mind but this is something I usually notice AFTER I’ve done it?  Like I’ll look at a character I’ve made and realize that a few months/years ago I probably wouldn’t have been able to make them or approach them that way.

Character design questions 1, 6, 9, 13 !

1. Who’s the oldest character of yours that youstill use? 

That would be Rin and Daisuke, who were once OCs from Bleach that I made back in...  God, grade 8?  Grade 7?  I’ve now re-purposed them to Gods of War.

6. When creating a character, do you come up withthe visual concept or the written concept first? 

That really depends to be honest.  A lot of the time, ideas for characters come from “I want a character with X trait” and then I sort of build around that.  Sometimes that’s a visual trait (for instance, Adellae was created because I wanted a character with silver braids and I had that visual in my head long before she became a thing) and sometimes that’s a personality or just a general character trait (Ashe was created because I wanted a character who had an eye for shinies/gold).

9. Is there a character that embodies your badtraits? Several characters? Which ones and what traits? 

A lot of my characters have my anxiety, some worse than mine some not.  I only have one character who experiences chronic pain like I do, but I think that’s because I kinda have a complicated relationship with that?  Jon is obnoxiously clingy like I am.  William has a bit of my stutter.  None of them embody my bad traits, they’re just kinda sprinkled around.

13. Do you create playlists for your characters? 

God YES.  I haven’t put anything together like on Youtube or anything but I’ve posted a couple of playlists for stories here and there.  My most comprehensive playlists are for A Dance with the Devil and South Pawed, but I haven’t made an updated list for them in a while lol.

Hot damn, I remember those Fae! It's been a while since I last saw them.

Right?? I was fooling around with the story and I ended up being inspired to continue it after forever, so I felt it was right to give the fae a bit of a redesign since a lot of the writing that needs to be done involves details/filling in spaces.

For your twin characters you said they where identical, but male and females can't be identical unless one of them is trans? Is one of them trans?

Yup, I actually just answered this right here, anon! <3
