Another two for errorink and any skeleton pair (riders or not, OCs or not, whatever strikes your fancy)?
12) Who starts a food fight in the kitchen?
13) Who initiates duets? and who is the better singer?
-----
For ErrorInk, I feel like Ink would be the gremlin who starts a food fight. It'd start off small, like individual peas or pieces of cheese slices that are being tossed at Error, then gradually, popcorn, fish crackers, and chips are added onto that list. What makes Error snap is when Ink starts tossing chocolate coins at him (the ones that are wrapped in gold tin foil). Needless to say, Error cheats and uses his threads to fight back whenever his hands are full, so the kitchen ends up getting completely trashed. Error tries using the "you started it, so you get to clean it" line of logic to get out of helping Ink clean, but Ink probably responds by tossing a handful of flour or a cookie at him or something. Laundry needs to be done afterward, because they both are covered in food items, and Error gets a chocolate pudding handprint the old, ratty looking shirt he was wearing
Yeah,, these two are complete heathens, and they're super messy, but once the food fight breaks out, there's very little that can be done to stop it
Who initiates duets and who's the better singer - Tbh I feel like Ink likes initiating things (since he knows how anxious and unsure Error can be), so he'd probably be the one initiating duets. It embarrasses Error to no end, being put on the spot like that, but as long as they're alone and he's in a decent mood, he'll humor Ink, because why not. Ink's a decent singer, but I feel like Error might actually be slightly better than him, since his voice is a little deeper, and probably kinda rough and gruff sounding when he uses a certain tone. His vocal glitches calm down while he's singing and he's not sure why, but he enjoys the break from them while he can
((the other pairing under a cut, so this doesn't get super long!))
Technically only one of them is a skeleton here, but I feel like going with WingDings (the version that is Famine's dad) and Lila, who was Famine's stepmom. Both of them are long dead and there's a lot of sadness that comes with their stories, but I feel like they could've been couple goals, so ye
For who starts food fights in the kitchen, it really depends on their moods. Wings wanted to set a good example for his two sons (Famine and Willow), so he tried to be mature a lot of the time. Lila, however, wanted him to loosen up and have fun, so if she felt up to it, she might've been the one tossing pieces of food at him. He tried shrugging it off and rolling his eyes, but then she decided to draw on the back of his all black coat with flour when they were in the kitchen one day. The kids thought it was funny watching her draw faces on him with flour, so upon hearing them giggling and deciding that he wanted to enjoy the moment a little longer, he decided to get Lila with some frosting. He grabbed her face (gently, of course) and put a little dot of chocolate frosting on her nose. The kids thought it was hilarious that he finally got her back, and feeling egged on by their laughter, he then felt like giving Lila some chocolate frosting whiskers, too. And then Lila's whole hand was in the bag of flour, and yeah,, it went everywhere. But hey, at least the kids were having fun!
Even after she got pregnant with Toby, she continued starting the occasional food fight with Wings. He wanted her to be more careful with most, if not all things, but eh. Why be careful when you can be having fun?
Then for who starts duets and who has the better singing voice - Lila's the one who starts everything, so she probably would've been the one who initiated any and all duets. Sometimes it was innocent and unintentional, with her singing along to the radio and him joining in, hugging her from behind, and other times, she'd deliberately get into her personal space and start singing, prompting him to join her until he actually did. If you were to ask the pair of them who was better at singing, Wings would probably say it was Lila, and Lila would probably say it was Wings. Wingdings had a deeper voice, but it was very smooth, and it always came out sounding very confident. Meanwhile, Lila's voice was very smooth too, but it was lighter, and the kids liked it when she sang them songs sometimes. She also liked singing along with Disney music, whenever she sat down to watch some movies with them
Mental image I just had, thanks to the song I just made a post about:
Famine's alive and underground, still hunting humans to survive, and struggling to feed his brothers
Everything is fine, right up until he kills Toby and Lila are two of the "ghosts" that are mentioned in the song
Willow helps him cope with the grief and guilt after what happened with Toby, and from there, things calm down. Then a human falls and starts a genocide run
He gets dragged away and locked up, so he can't protect Willow. When he finally frees himself and he finds Willow's dust, Willow is the third ghost from the song
Famine was already mentally unstable anyway from his living conditions and lifestyle, and all the killing he had to do. Killing Toby pushed him closer to having a breakdown, but Willow dying was the final push he needed to completely lose it
He's delusional, believing he can see the ghosts of his mother and brothers, and they constantly haunt him, driving him further into madness. He has to confront the human while this is going on, and it's the distraction from them that causes him to falter. That split second was all the human needed to land a fatal blow, and in his last moments, he's able to break their reset button
He's still very mentally and emotionally unstable, and still very haunted by these ghosts. Even after Death brought him back to promote him to being a rider, Famine was still delusional, and he probably lashed out at him, as if he thought he was still fighting the human in judgement hall
Pestilence was the one who had to bring him back to reality, and even after he'd settled down, he was probably still delusional for a while. Even years later, he probably still gets really freaked out by the idea of going crazy again, and that's why he denies seeing Lila and Toby. To him, they're representations of his guilt and failure to be a good son and brother. He denies them because he thinks if he acknowledges them, he'll just end up losing his mind again
Ooooh what about Diamondback and Skink? The ghosts? :D
Hmmmmmmmmm
Diamondback,, I don't think he'd really dress up as anything? He might just wear his normal clothes and say he's a scientist or a teacher, but like..... Bruh. That's not a costume. Those are your work clothes
Then with Skink, I have no idea, tbh. My first thought was "Steve Irwin", since they're both Australian. Because Skink is Skink though, he could also throw on a dress or skirt and then get a feather boa. He could then get himself all dolled up and look pretty. I dunno what exactly he'd be, but yeah. If being pretty was too much of a hassle, then he'd probably be something that pairs with whatever Diamondback says he is
The ghosts, hmmmmmm let's see.... I feel like Lila would be the kind of person that'd put on a witch hat and say that's her costume. I also wanna be a butthead and say that she could put on a sweater and have her hair tied in a ponytail that's kinda to the side and over one of her shoulders, like the "every anime mom who dies" kind of hairstyle/overall look
Toby could put a pumpkin on his head and be a v small headless horseman, and then I think Lenore would be a princess of some sort. Not the elegant, fancy ball gown kind of princess, but one that's more simple and modest. Maybe Snow White or Alice (I know she's not really a princess but shhhh)??
(Ah– no need to apologize..! *blushes more* I don't.. mind at all from the delay. I'm... after all, more than happy to see—*looks about the family*—you all together. *shyly smiles wide*)
[He continues smiling, appearing completely at ease]
Some pictures included in Lila's baby picture album: Famine as a toddler, wearing a bunch of floaties and playing in the bathtub, Fam as a little kid, covered in really messy makeup because he thought it'd be ok to let Paps put it on him, and him as an actual babybones, sitting on the couch in a onesie and laughing so hard at something that there's tears in his eyes
So uhh,, ye. I made some new playlists for a handful of side characters, and because I feel like it’s possible to get a better sense of what they’re like as a person from the music on those playlists, I figured I’d share them here, for anyone who might be interested. There’s a couple I won’t include here, because those characters are still totally unknown (and I’ll be honest, I’m not sure I’ll even do anything with one of them yet)
Othni’s Playlist
Lila’s Playlist
Glo’s Playlist
Kali’s Playlist
Cobalt’s Playlist
Still debating on making more for Lenore and Tobias, but eh. Maybe tomorrow, when I’m feeling a little more alive XP
I’m also still adding to these and updating them as we speak, so yeah :p they’re nowhere near being complete
