>> 4: How do you get into your OC’s mindset to write for them? How do you find the muse for them?
I don't really know! Aika's really different to the kind of characters I normally play, and her obsession with boys without any yandere-like intentions is something that actually makes me really uncomfortable. But I think I'm most attracted to her confidence - the other two human OCs acting as main muses on this blog are both really insecure, so it's refreshing to have a character that really loves herself and is comfortable in her own body. Usually all I really have to do to develop more muse for her is listen to VOCALOID music and think about how much I love robots, haha!
>> 8: What does your OC look for in a significant other? Are they looking at all?
Aika thinks she has everything she wants in Hideo - she's heavily superficial and is strongly attracted to anyone she deems 'gorgeous', but she also likes being in control of the relationship. However, she's really looking for someone who will actually love her back, both physically and emotionally. Aika's hypersexuality means she craves physical contact to the point of addiction, and she obsesses over the idea of romantic affection and sexual contact; both of which she doesn't recieve from her boyfriend. She's starved of real emotional love and doesn't even realise it, so at this point, she's only looking for someone who cares.
>> 14: Pet peeves. Tell us what would really tick them off. Do they have a Berserk Button?
Like any human being, there are a lot of things Aika hates! Her work tools going walkabout, people telling her what to do or say, people who take selfies too seriously, the use of social media for anything other than chatting to people. However, a surefire way to piss her off is to make some form of romantic advance on Hideo; she knows for a fact that he can't reciprocate their attraction - heck, he doesn't even reciprocate hers - but she still feels an intense possessiveness towards him, especially since she worked so hard to create him.
