This is mainly for my Ko-Fi page, but I wanted to post it here as well. Every now and then I give a breakdown of a sentence, or a spheal about Japanese on my Ko-Fi. I've been learning it for almost a year now, so I like sharing what I have learned with my fans there. Also, I will be doing more wtih my own original characters this year, such as Tenai here!
I plan to give a more proper introduction to my Ko-Fi page in the near future, but here is the link to it regardless!

Tenma x aizawa for the hc thingie?
Oh yes~ they were my first Sumo ship, I love them so much
Who is the restless sleeper? - not so much restless as Tenma splays out like a starfish, effectively smacking Aizawa in the face every. single. night. At least once. Kicks him on accident too.
Who eats cereal for dinner? - not for dinner, but Tenma sometimes eats it for an after dinner snack. he’s a big boy. the chanko isn’t always enough.
Who wears odd socks? - neither, not really. Tenma hates wearing socks in general, and Aizawa wears boring “normal” socks. the weirdest socks Tenma owns are probably part of a merch line for his favorite manga series
Who reads more? - Tenma. We know he likes history manga, and he probably has a stack of history fiction and nonfiction that he likes as well. Sometimes Aizawa tries to engage in that as well, but he can’t always get into it.
Who prefers a bath over a shower? - Tenma. Aizawa likes a good bath too, but Tenma has one almost every night if he has time.
Who can knit? - Aizawa knows a little. Not enough to make anything substantial, but he picked it up from his mom and grandma.
Who has the weirder laugh? - neither of them have a super weird laugh. Aizawa just laughs more. Tenma just huffs through his nose (or snorts) whenever he laughs.
Who gets more jealous? - Tenma gets fairly jealous. Any time Aizawa isn’t paying attention to him, he starts getting pouty and grumpy. He tries not to let it out towards Aizawa, but it usually does. Tenma has never had a good handle on his temper.
Who sleeps with a teddy bear? - Aizawa slept with a stuffed cow in his bed until he got to high school. After that, it got retired to a box on the top shelf of his closet
Who still uses internet explorer? - Aizawa honors the prompts of ‘this website runs best on internet explorer’ rather than continuing to use a different browser out of spite.
Who is the most sentimental? - Aizawa usually, but hes always surprised when Tenma gets all touchy feely and lovey. Aizawa just wants to know how much he means to Tenma sometimes, and Tenma always delivers at the right moments.
Who can play an instrument? - Aizawa had to join the music class in middle school and the tuba was chosen for him. He is very glad he didn’t stick with it in high school.
Who has the worst sense of direction? - Tenma. He’s not the worst of the worst, he just only knows the major locations that he needs to go, and beyond that, nah. If he goes somewhere new, he better be going with Aizawa because he’s gonna get loooooosssst.
Who cooks breakfast? - Tenma does usually, because the first thing he wants when he wakes up is a big breakfast. Whether or not he makes enough for Aizawa is a different story, because before 10 am its hard to think about anyone but himself.
Who is the early riser? - Aizawa, by only a few minutes. They usually get up around the same time, unless one of them have somewhere they need to be. They would both sleep in until noon if given the opportunity
Have a writing drabble
It had been over a year since the defeat of Umbra, and nearly a year since Silaris' defeat. It was a long, difficult, and irritating journey. The purple haired girl had no idea what she was getting herself into the day she walked into that tavern, following the suspicious mage. Drunken mage, more like it. Her life only became stranger since then. An elf, a drow, a faerie, a dragon, a changeling, and a handful of others... a ragtag group of unsuspecting heroes if she had ever heard of one.
From the outside, she even appeared to be the most normal one of the group, she was likely the most sane. No one would suspect the troupe to be heroes, saving the world not once - but twice. Defeating your generic, purely chaotic villain and his servant, and then destroying his apprentice who was simply out for revenge. Well, not so much destroy as watched as the pervert and his sister sacrificed themselves to release the soul of one of her comrades. A bizarre experience for sure.
Either way, it had been months since their last ordeal, and as worried as she was for her drunken comrade Mika, the girl had split from the group. Most of the group. She had grown close to the youngest-looking of their band, the Dragon Deros. More specifically, the Dragon Prince Deros. A minor detail revealed to them after their encounter with a particularly irritating Kitsune. Natural enemies, Dragons and Kitsune. A single Kitsune could easily kill a single Dragon, but killing royalty would have been, quite frankly, a stupid move.
The only thing that gave the boy away was a pair of dark orange wings attached to his back. To be fair, it was a pretty obvious giveaway, and the pair did get some odd looks as they walked through a small town.
"Tenai Tenai! Come look! Over heeeeeere~!"
A child at heart, he had run over to look at a merchant stand filled with trinkets and toys. Her blue eyes scanned over what he was pointing at, and a smile formed on her face. It was a small blue charm that looked much like a faerie, strikingly similar to the one they had traveled with. The two reminisced about the faerie Kitsu's antics - an opportunistic, sometimes thieving faerie. They spent most of the day in the town, retreating back into the woods come nightfall.
As the sun set, onlookers would see the strange dragon boy traveling with a fairly un-suspicious looking grey wolf. Only on the outside was she a normal human being. An unwilling Lycanthrope, but with wolf as her normal form from birth. They really were an odd pair at the base of it all, but they had formed a unique bond as two species who normally would have never met. It was much like the bond between brother and sister.
For the most part, their current partnership was only temporary. Soon Deros would be returning to his home in the mountains to tell his story and continue living his life. Tenai, as she was not a dragon, would not be allowed to live there, and would continue her original life as a mercenary bowman. The life she had lived for a few years before the fateful encounter with Mika. Even with the magic cast on her body, the magic that originally turned her Lycanthrope, she would likely not outlive the half-elf mage. There was no doubt in her mind that they, and the others, would meet again, and it would most likely be a complete accident.
OFF TO GRAND BEND!
