All the time! I’m very very often singing or humming some little tune to myself.
71. What makes you nervous?
I get time anxious (nervous about being late) relatively easily, though I’ve gotten much better about that over the years. I am sometimes nervous about meeting large numbers of people I don’t know. I can’t think of anything else that makes me categorically nervous tbh.
81. Can you roll your Rs?“
Not really tbh! In the middle of words, yes. At the end of words, it’s passableish.
Favorite move: i wish she did Kaisen Dankairaku on me
Favorite quote: hora
Favorite storyline/ending: The one where she literally kicks Seth’s face in
Enjoy Playing As?: Yep, I think all versions of her are fun. Even in SFV and I know everyone hates that version of her.
Changes I would make?: I respect the idea but she should really be able to access her qcf.k stuff(at least the medium and heavy) without storing them first. Also i wish her SFV theme wasn’t ass. Also Also I wish she had more than one VT
Unpopular opinion: I love her as much as anyone else so I can’t really think of any

Lili
Am I a fan?: 2nd best rich girl in fighting games. Especially when she started speaking French
Favorite move: random Matterhorn after a sidestep. also QCF3+4
Favorite quote: “Et qui es-tu au juste?” The way she delivers it is great.
Favorite storyline/ending: Her introduction in the T5 DR opening is actually pretty sick
Enjoy Playing As?: She’s simple and fun
Changes I would make?: Idk if anyone else feels this way, but I really wish her hair was modeled better in T7. It looks weird to me if I stare at it for too long
Unpopular opinion: People complain about df3+4 but its not that bad tbh. Even if you fail to step it you can just disrespect it
——
Rashid
Am I a fan?: He’s tied for the best SFV newcomer
Favorite move: c.HP aka The Double Halal
Favorite quote: “Roar, Thunder!”
Favorite storyline/ending: The only one he has I guess, but I love how he had a main role in the story mode
Enjoy Playing As?: A little, he doesnt really suit my playstyle, but I like to fool around with him anyway since he’s cool.
Changes I would make?: nothing he’s fine as he is
Unpopular opinion: lots of people have gotten sick of him but I still think hes a fun character to see
Am I a fan?: Nothing but respect for the first lady of fighting games
Favorite quote: “Even though you're young, you know justice is more than just protecting loved ones. It's about charging in, kicking butt, and taking names!“
Favorite move: Hyakuretsukyaku
Favorite storyline/ending: Her SF2 ending where she immediately parties after avenging her dad #iconic
Enjoy playing as?: Yeah she’s pretty fun
Changes I would make?: Make her cop outfit her default.
Unpopular opinion: People get waaay too horny about chuners, like to a weird degree. Some of you need to go outside more.
MURDER HOBO
Am I a fan?: TBH i’m pretty ambivant about him
Favorite quote: “If you are not merciless, your soul will be slaughtered!“
Favorite move: Don’t pretend theres any other options
Favorite storyline/ending: His Tekken cameo is great because he appears outta nowhere, kicks everyones ass, then leaves and in-canon everyone else has no idea who the fuck he is.
Enjoy playing as?: I mean he’s a shoto, so yeah i guess
Changes I would make?: Give him his old hair back
Unpopular opinion: putting him in versus games is dumb when Ryu is already there, but tbh thats not really a very unpopular opinion
I can’t play either that well, but damn I love these two
send me a fighting game character and i will answer
Ling Xiaoyu
Am I a fan?: Yeah! If my memory serves correctly, she was the first girl I picked when I was first introduced to the series because T3 was my first game. I think one of the reasons I always picked her as my go-to back then was because she was cute and of her blue/gold costume, which to this day is still one of my fave outfits in the entire series. They should’ve brought that one back instead of the pink dress from T4, which is also a good outfit, but not as memorable
Favorite move: I can’t pick a single move, so I’m gonna say all the moves that come with her Phoenix and Rain Dance stances. But if I were to pick just one from each, then her “California Roll” from Rain Dance, and either “Double Barrel Shotgun”, “Phoenix Trip”, or “Flower Power” from Phoenix
Favorite quote: I have a few
T5/6/Tag 2/ 7
“Looks like I’m in for a fight”
“Oops, I won!”
“Okay! I’m ready!”
“Oh, this is not good…”
“You’re not getting off easy”
SFxTK
(vs Akuma) “I wonder if you are the demon I was told about when I was a kid and wouldn’t eat my veggies…”
(vs Elena) “Your legs are so long and beautiful… Ahh! I’m so jealous!”
(vs Guile) “What, you were expecting some clever insult about your hair? I don’t comment on what I don’t care about, sorry!”
Favorite storyline/ending: Her T3 ending where she beats up Heihachi for not giving her a theme park like he promised is still in my top 10 fave endings ever
Enjoy Playing As?: Sometimes. Whenever I try a new team with her in either of the Tag games, I found she’s fun to pair with Miharu and Forest (aside from Alisa, Lei, Wang, and Panda)
Changes I would make?: Aside from preferring to hear her speak Chinese, I’d love to see the changes of her in something aside from that school uniform, hair down as an option, and her out of that one-sided “relationship” she has
Unpopular opinion: I don’t really see this as an unpopular opinion, but I hate how she’s been characterized lately? To me, she’s kinda blindly defending someone who doesn’t even really acknowledge her existence. Xiao, you can do much better
Am I a fan?: Is this even a question. Of fucking course I love this giant Russian bear man
Favorite move: Can I say his entire move list? If not, I’ll have to go with his SF4 Ultras, Ultimate Atomic Buster and Siberian Blizzard. And his critical art from SF5, Bolshoi Russian Suplex
Favorite quote: I have too many
SF4 series
(vs Akuma) "That’s one scary mug you have there! Have you considered a wrestling career?“
(vs Decapre) "A fellow Russian, eh? What do you say we fight once more to celebrate?”
(vs Dudley) "The boxing champ versus the wrestling champ. What an honor!“
(vs El Fuerte) "You should learn some Russian recipes! Nothing warms the soul better!”
(vs Elena) “Hmm… Strong… Flexible… I think I can teach you the mighty Cossack dance!”
SFxTK
(vs Dudley) "Nice to fight a fellow champion! Now we shall drink together, no?“
(vs Rufus) "I told you, comrade! Less fat, more muscle!”
(vs Alisa) “Did you take off your head during the fight? Maybe I am seeing bad dream…“
(vs Bob) "Turn that cellulite into muscle, my friend! Let us hit the gym for weight training!”
(vs Heihachi) “If it’s for my country, then I can slam even old man to the ground!“
(vs Julia) "You have nice muscles! Very powerful! We should battle again!”
(vs Lars) "Such strange fashion! Have you ever been to Moscow?“
(vs Marduk) ”Very nice muscles! And you can put on a good show! From today, we are Muscle Comrades!“
(vs Steve) "You have courage to try and attack my openings. Most people just run away scared! Aha ha ha ha!“
I would add more but this answer is getting too lengthy. Here’s the link to his quote page
Favorite storyline/ending: His entire story is too good to pick just one part. Like, this is the man who was promised all of Russia’s support from the president if he participated in the tournaments, later re-entering in the SF4 era to prove to some kids arguing that wrestling is just as good as martial arts. I did like the bit in his SF5 story where he and Mika battle Alex and Laura
Enjoy Playing As?: Yeah. At first, he’s a bit tricky for me since he’s so slow and large, but a few hours in practice and he’s one of my backups
Changes I would make?: You can’t improve someone who doesn’t really have flaws if you ask me.
Juri Rashid and ya girl Laura if I can ask for more than one 😎
Oh fucking awesome! :D
Juri
Am I a fan?: F yes! She’s my second main besides Laura and was my main in Super Street Fighter 4 and onward
Favorite move: Senpusha which is now the Tensenrin
Favorite quote: It’s a tie with the one where she says “Well, then. Where do you want me to break you first?” and “I’ll have my revenge!”
Favorite storyline/ending: Her SSF4 ending where she destroys and crushes Seth and afterwards laughs. Seriously I hated Seth. No one likes Seth.
Enjoy playing as?: She’s fun to play as so yes!
Changes I would make: Change her Tensenrin move from a z motion to the simple hadoken motion. Seriously I can’t do z motions to save my life.
Unpopular opinion: People need to shut their fucking mouths about the stupid ass “censorship” with her suit. Seriously it looks better when her chest is covered because it looks more like a bad ass biker outfit.
Rashid
Am I a fan?: I like him, yes
Favorite move: Spinning mixer
Favorite quote: “I am Rashid of the turbulent wind. Remember the name well.”
Favorite storyline/ending: In the SFV general story mode when his late friend send him a pre-recorded message that the world was saved and he was happy.
Enjoy playing as?: I don’t play him as much as Laura and Juri, but he is fun to use, but complex.
Changes I would make: None
Unpopular opinion: He’s a really cool character even though many don’t like him as well as being stereotypish, but that’s just me.
Laura
Am I a fan?: FUCK YES I AM I FUCKING LOVE HER YOU HAVE NO IDEA SHE’S MY WIFE
Favorite move: Sunset wheel! “Here we go! BOOM!”
Favorite quote: “Ding Ding! I took this round!”
Favorite storyline/ending: Her SFV character ending where she tries to find strong fighters in order to promote her Matsuda Jiu Jutsu and her brother Sean gets worried about her in the end.
Enjoy playing as?: Obviously yes! She’s extremely fun to play!
Changes I would make: Make her darker skinned and give her a boyfriend
Unpopular opinion: I do not think she’s annoying as the hateful FGC claims her to be. People are stupid and have no taste.
Hi :+) Magical thinking is basically any logic that isn't rooted in observable reality. It's syllogistic "X makes Y" thinking even when X isn't known to make Y, like the idea that the dead person will come back to life in a year if the child eats lentils every Friday. It's not rooted in fact, so it's "magical". But yeahhhh I do think the post just meant that kids need to understand that the person has died forever in any corporeal sense, not that believing in afterlife is bad for children.
