graveheist answered your question:I find it extremely difficult to compose character...

I think he looks fabulous! The only thing I’d suggest playing around with is the placement of his ears – they seem a little too high on his head, coming out of the middle of the parietal bone.

Oh, his ears are meant to be up that hight haha, but I’ll take a look for alternative positions/design a skull which should allow the ears there

12. When do you usually come up with a title? and 29. Do you get emotional about the events that happen in your story or are you more removed from them?

Hi heist! Thanks for the asks! I’m always happy to get em in my inbox <3 and the second creativity-related thing after RP plot brainstorming I like to do is talk about writing XD

12. TITLES AND NAMES! THE BANE OF A LOT OF CREATORS! It varies a lot, sometimes the title just comes to me based on what the story will generally be about in my head, other times I procrastinate for DAYS before I write anything down, or will put up a temporary (read: lame) title. A lot of advice for writers says you should come up with your title AFTER you’ve finished, but I tend to publish sequential serial stuff on the net as I write it, so it has to have some sort of title :3

29. All the time XD I deeply care for the characters I write about, whether in my original work or the fandoms I RP, because more often than not they are a representation of a facet of myself, or I sympathise with what I put them through. For example, when I killed off one of my RP characters, I was teary-eyed and heroically championing through the deep feels to get that event tied off >_>

quartz: how my muse thinks other people see them

This is kind of a difficult one!

Barton doesn’t tend to consider what people think of him in general outside of a work or romantic situation, mostly because he doesn’t really care in general what a person thinks of him if it has no bearing on anything he does. He believes that for the most part people at work see him as someone they can trust and feel comfortable with, a person they can rely on for difficult and seemingly trivial problem solving and someone who can get the job done.

In the romantic sense, Barton has a couple of self-esteem hangups which have developed over the years as the result of a major relationship’s breakdown and several unsatisfactory interactions with subsequent partners. Barton thinks that prospective lovers might consider that he’s a boring and simplistic prude, and that he has old-fashioned notions about dating and having casual sex.

(/□＼*)・゜ = What makes the character blush

I’ll do this for like 5 characters since it wasn’t specified ahaha

Tator: Anything romance-y. It could just be something super tame and simple like holding pinkies and wowee red face. 

Fruna: She blushes from compliments, especifically about her muscles. She’s got them muscles man.

Ceviche: When he’s embarrassed. Like when people can see right through his I’m a bad boy act and then tell him so. He just tries so hard.

Dulce: Can chua even blush??? If they can then Dulce would mostly blush from getting caught being all cute and stuff. By that I mean someone finding their hoogle shrine. They are ashamed. 

Chicha: Nothing. Nothing at all. Or at least no one has figured it out. (I HAVEN’T)

⊙﹏☉ = What flusters the character - for Avestrus!

It’s been a long time since Avestrus has been actually flustered--although it used to happen often with particular individuals when he was Decimus.  

For something like that, there needs to be some advancement of his character, I think. He basically has to stop discounting 99% of what people say. True, deep connections with people, however? Moments of affection, expressions of love, etc (if he believes them) would likely do the trick. There’s a distinct sort of gentleness and reassurance that he requires (and doesn’t allow himself) and would not really know how to handle. That would probably fluster him.

For now, he either arrogantly acts like he deserves that kind of thing or brushes it aside because of a lack of belief.

* Reeder, about himself 8)

Reeder seems to be caught of guard by the question. His mouth hangs open at an awkward angle as his eyes slowly blink, one at a time. “Me? I’m... fffuughh...” he trails off with a small belch and lets his forehead fall against the counter. He doesn’t bother to lift it again as he keeps talking, muffling his voice. “I don’t even know what t’ tell ya. I used to travel the galaxy helpin’ people, y’know? Now... th-this is all I am.” He gestures to his drunken self before he lets his arm flop over the counter again, his back shuddering as he lets out a mournful groan.

An event that defines them - Osha!

Osha grew up as a tribeless Keeper of the Moon in Ul’dah, and as such the temptation to just steal the thing she has needed over the years was very high. What kept her from walking that path when she was younger was when she was given some free food by a passing stranger every day for a month. All that man asked of her was the following: “There will be times when you can simply take what you want, but so long as you are a good person that does the right thing, life will find a way to take care of you...either by your own hard work, or because someone is repaying your kindness. Keep being one of the good ones, ok?”

4) How long have you been RPing? and L) What is something you hate doing? (FOR EVERYONE 8D )

I’ve been rping since, uh.  Neopets forums.  Nothing long-term, just one off stuff with characters I’d make up on the fly.  I started playing WoW and rping in that in ‘06.

Going to answer L for everyone I consider an active character.  (There’s more that I barely play/haven’t played in awhile so I’m not counting them.)

Delphie:  Getting emotional in front of people.

Cobble:  Tidy up.  It's part of why her home is so overgrown with plants. (that, and she's absentminded.)

Mudde: Read and write.  He’s only recently learned how to properly, and it’s still hard for him.

Zan’Kuja: Discuss her unusual parentage.

Cynemaer:  Swim, mainly because he can’t.

Okkotto:  Hurting people.  He’s a gentle giant.
