Us Mods have been really busy these last 2 weeks. Midterms have come up for me personally, as well as other things for each of us. Mostly school related stuff. Boring, but necessary. So, to get back into the swing of things, we’re gonna host a quick AMA. Ask us anything, just please keep it PG-15. It can be from an ask meme, or one of those would-you-press-the-button games, or whatever. We’re ready for you. We’ll answer things as they come in, or if you want to direct your questions towards a specific mod feel free. We’ll save it for them if they happen to not be around at the moment.
Right now it’s just myself and Mod Rikyn hanging out, everyone else is eating dinner and stuff. You know how it goes. Some people just have to fuel their soul prisons with flesh or organo-chemically treated plant organs in their nightly bonding ritual with their progenitors/spawn-mates. As one does. So, ask us stuff. We’d be delighted to share our innermost secrets~
edit: whoops mod Sarin was lurking. She should have said something earlier, then she wouldn’t have to be called out like this
So, I personally follow some recipe blogs and stuff and they posted this on my dash ~2-3 days ago. This is the conversation that followed between Mod Rikyn and I.
Then, just now, I saw a thing. Something that you may or may not have thought of yourself. and been angrily shaking your head, telling us how utterly stupid we were for forgetting about. It was then that I saw it. It was then that I remembered.
Please, have mercy on our souls. We may very well be to stupid to survive when our robot overlords come for us.
Besides Mystic Messenger, what other video games do you play?
I really enjoy RPG’s. I’ve beaten every Pokemon game I have the console for, I’ve beaten all of the Dragon Age games multiple times (<3 u Zev), and I have a level 96 Bosmer whose smithing skill I have legendary’d 13 times on Skyrim, and I still haven’t decided to kill Alduin yet. <3 Mod Vem
Mod Rikyn - Hmm, I don’t play a lot of video games, but I really, really like Seduce Me the Otome, tomadachi life, and life is strange.
Well, when I was younger, my cousin and I really enjoyed riding our bikes. He thought the girl down the street was cute, and one day while we were racing each other she was out in the yard playing with her dog. He was so distracted he ran his bike straight into a sign post, and he still has a scar on his arm. To this day he still tells me he should have won that race. I tell him that the finish line was past the post, not into it. Well, you didn’t say I had to be embarrassed about this story, now did you~ <3 Mod Vem
Okay, so last April, I went to go star gaze in my backyard. I brought my phone, a blanket, and a water bottle out. I have a pretty big backyard, so I walked to the very back of it so I could get comfortable. As soon as I sat down, I heard some rustling coming from the bushes near my porch. I thought it was a cat, so I started calling it over. It’s pitch black out, and my vision is terrible, so I don’t notice that it’s not a cat until it gets about 15 feet away from me. I legit get up, scream, and run. This thing chased me up onto my porch. I thought it was an ant eater. I’m from rural PA, and I thought ant eaters lived here. The embarrassing thing is that I told my parents, and they made fun of me for m o n t h s afterwards. Ugh. ~ Mod Rikyn
To all of you, out of curiosity who is your favorite mystic messenger character to write and what pairing do you enjoy writing the most?
Theres a few paragraphs so answers are below the cut!
Rion - So My favourite character to write is probably Seven, as he has a personality similar to mine so I can get into the mindset of him quickly enough. But I like writing as MC the possibilities are endless, there is no worries of writing them OOC as they can be anyone! I’m not good at writing about pairings as someone who is aromantic (I experience little to no romantic attraction) so it’s harder for me to think of characters in a romantic sense, so instead you can get my favourite pairing, (once i actually think about it…)
Ro- My favorite to write is for sure Yoosung, as like Rion and Seven, we have similar personalities, and I feel like I can write him in character. MC is fun to write too, as well as Jaehee. In terms of pairing, I don’t really have too much preference. Just people/MC works for me, and my favorite person/MC to write is probably Jaehee or Yoosung (lining up with my faves to write).
Sarah- I love writing Seven! I feel like we have similar mindsets, so I can easily write him. He also is my favorite character, and I’ve taken his route quite a few times (7 to be exact lolol) so I know him pretty well. I also enjoy writing Saeran, as he has that tough love personality that I find kinda fun to write! As for my favorite pairing to write, I’ve only ever written the characters/mc (i also haven’t been writing mm for a long time) and I enjoy writing that pairing, but I’d love to try writing Yooseven and Juciel (im a sucker for jumin x seven oops)
Vem- Oh dear, this is a fun and tricky question. It really depends on what I’m trying to convey at the time. I want to say Zen, probably because no one else will claim that, and he’s fun to play around with. He’s so aggressive and he may not always be right but he will put everything he has into his pursuits. If I’m feeling more mellow, or melancholy, V’s my go-to character to write. He’s a tragic character, whether you think he’s a hero or a villain, and he’s so complex and we still don’t know a lot about him (yet!) that it’s definitely fun to get into his head and poke through his motivations and reasons and processes. I don’t really write pairings, save for the superficial stuff implied in asks and hcs (and of course all of the crack we’re on in the chat). It’s not that I’m opposed, I just have a hard time writing the formula for romance.
Orchid/Zaechid: I enjoy mostly writing about Saeran. I enjoy writing about Saeran the most because I relate to Saeran in some ways. Some people think of Saeran as a ‘Bad Guy’ but I just think that he’s a little messed up from what has happened to him. My favorite pairing to write about would be…Yooran! I used to run a Yooran blog..and who doesn’t love two soft boys dating? I think that Yoosung would help Saeran through his problems and it would be sweet.
Moni- I love writing about every character tbh, but dunno why it’s easier for me to write about Seven and Zen, maybe because I really love Seven and for a reason I understand how would Zen act irl, and the least I can write about is Jaehee, dunno why :(. And about pairing, probably SevenxMC or VxMC, I love both ships a lot!!!
Eryn: I like writing Seven and Jumin. Seven and Jumin are both complex characters, but I love them. Seven has a very difficult past and writing about him is always interesting. He’s my go-to for angst. Jumin, on the other hand, is very business-like with everyone, but I feel like he’s a giant nerd. JuminxMC is my favorite to write because, again, Jumin is a giant nerd.
