Me again! Saw the Fandom OC ask game on your dash, so thought to ask about...
Which canon character respects your OC most? What gained that respect?
Who has brought your OC to tears before?
What is your OC’s ‘‘darkness moment’’ in the plot? ( no need to share if spoilers!)
Hon, the sound that came out of me when I saw this!! 😭😭 Thank you ever so much for the questions, I really needed (and appreciate) them!! 🫂🫂
A'ight, since a series wasn't specified, Imma go with my main Castlevania girl Elena since she's the most fleshed out of the shared fandoms. Wish I had the images for reference finished at this point but as usual I am hopeless...
Which canon character respects your OC most? What gained that respect?
S4!Horse. A carrot was involved. 🥕
Most? A predictable one I'm afraid: Alucard. Since around 80% of the story centres on these two alone in each others' company (and Horse, can't forget him😁🐴) , I reckon in the little moments of watching how she gradually picks herself up out of a funk in finding genuine elation and solace in the smallest of things is where it would start.
Comforting when your newly acquired castlemate won't touch your wine and would much rather hunt for oddly shaped stones or help fallen bird chicks back into their nest in lieu of learning the myriad arts of decapitation whilst you yourself are still fresh off your own trauma.
Where it would probably shine brightest is when she takes charge in certain instances. Times where she's pushed through her fears for a greater purpose, be it for his sake or another's.
(I love this question, it really made me think, and honestly there are scores of more specific reasons but ahhh they're a little spoilery 😭)
Who has brought your OC to tears before?
Aside from other minor OCs, another easy one: Alucard, again. For both good... and not so good reasons. 😅 There's an example below~
What is your OC's "darkness moment" in the plot? (no need to share if spoilers!)
Right off the bat she's met during a "darkness moment" in losing quite literally everything and everyone she's ever known and spends most of the story affected by it in different ways (one involving a bit of a strange fear that developed).
Loss (in all different forms) being a key theme here. Even prior to the narrative, she's experienced a lot since childhood (some indirectly inflicted) which has her go through lengthy bouts of depression and anxiety essentially. Insecurity is also at play that ends up self-sabotaging a lot of forward momentum, especially when she starts feelin' them feelings. 💔
There are a fair amount of darkness moments altogether, nearing the end being the darkest of them and thus a Major spoiler. 🤐 But an early-ish scene example is Elena thinking Alucard is going to die from an unbeknownst 'illness' but, surprise surprise, he doesn't... but the direct aftermath let's just say wasn't handled... delicately, causing quite the fear-based rift between them.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ASKING, DEAR! THE AMOUNT OF FUN I HAD WRITING THESE!!!! *Shrieks* 💙💙💙💙 Will get to the other soon! Just need to polish the writing up a smidge, my first drafts are the messiest of messy! 😅😵💫
