3, 11,17 for whatever characters you feellike doing

I’ll do Halandi because he’s Hadari’s brother.

If you were to choose another name for your oc, what do you think it would be? Did you choose it for how it sounds or for its meaning?

Well, Halandi is actually the “another name” for him, since I revamped some names after I had fleshed out the Trader language a bit more. He was originally Hellend, but the make up sounded more Northern than Trader, so I moved some sounds around to mess with the stress and made it into a Trader name.

What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to your oc? Do they still feel ashamed for it? Were there any witnesses?

Probably being the youngest in the group and thus not being old enough to get permission to go run off on his own. “Ok, but make sure you stick with your sister, you’re not old enough to run off on your own.” And of course all his friend and his sister would be there.  And it’s more one of those it seems super embarrassing when you’re like 12 but it’s not really the end of the world.

How well can your oc keep secrets? Is there a difference between how they handle their own vs someone else’s? To what lengths would they go to keep something hidden?

He is a little brother and the youngest of the group, so he does get into some snooping around and blabbing territory, but Tali’s younger brother and sister were even younger and kind of filled that role. So generally it’s the, there are some secrets of my sister’s that I’ll never tell another soul and then some “promise you won’t tell anyone. “promise... HEY SEHAT”

But he’s loyal to his sister and his friends and would keep it if it mattered.

Green tea and rooibos

green tea is, objectively speaking, one of the best teas you could have. brewed right, it can be very calming and a good tea to help wind down at night. also good with toppings or other additions like a bit of cinnamon or lemon or brown sugar or honey. (lbr though, pretty much any tea is good with honey.) rooibos is also good but i haven’t had it recently so i won’t say more on the matter.

Rooibos: What is one of you favourite books? the first one to come to mind today it diana wynne jones’ howl’s moving castle and also house of many ways. they were two of the best fantasy books i have ever read.

Green tea: What was the first movie you saw in a cinema? i think the very first one ever was charlotte’s web and i think that’s when i was about 7 because i have zero memory of the experience. the most recent one was a simple favor and they should’ve made it gayer.

2,3,11,12!

thank you!!

the plan this nano is to edit the first draft of Happy Endings. (I’ve talked about this before so sorry if this isn’t new!)

2.. How did you get into it?

I don’t remember! I think I was going through a ‘gotta write all the things’ during 2015 and found the site somehow.

3. How much planning do you have done?

For the second draft... not so much. I’m going to have to rehaul the timeline for the second draft but I still have things!! to do!!! At least I know how the main storyline goes.

11. What are your MCs names? 

My main children’s names are Cal and Fel, short for Callum and Felix.

12. Who’s your favorite character so far?

I love them both, but right now I’m really hung up on a side character named Dalton. He’s incredibly interesting and Im super excited to write him. 

thank u sm!!!

[adhd-headcanons]

You’ve heard of headcanons, now get ready for canons (from my head). My protagonist Jude has ADHD. He’s a vampire hunter, very hyperactive and fidgety, with a near constant internal monologue that sometimes ends up external at the wrong times. He loves dogs, music, and his boyfriend, and i love him very much. (Uh i post about my writing at danafaithwriting if anyone wants to see more abt him)

I love him too! I’ll go ahead and tag @danafaithwriting in case anyone wants to see more!

[three3bees]

my fave character of yours is farsa but it's also behemias i love them both so much

LOL i kept this in my inbox until now because it makes me feel nice but also because i’m going through my inbox just now from not mobile. here’s a lil bonus for u:

“dude, just ask her out already.” behemias turned in surprise to his companion, a startled expression on his face like he was almost offended to be told such a thing. “she’s been staring at you all night and the only reason you didn’t notice is because she looks away every time you look back at her.”

“well, i- i cant just do that. that would be rude of me to impose. what, do you want to swagger up to her and say ‘hey, how about we get out of here?’” their whole circle of friends looked at him like that was the obvious course of action and made mumbles of scattered agreement.

“see? everyone here says yes and i say if you dont make a move tonight, i will.” behemias was appalled at that and ran through possible scenarios of how the night could turn out.

if he could muster the courage to just talk to the girl he’d been glancing at all night, that would hopefully be enough to placate the present company. on the other hand, if he didn’t, someone else most certainly would and that would be much more unpleasant. well, there would be worse things to happen than talking to a girl who had been giving him a funny feeling all month.

send me an ask!: who’s your favorite character of mine?

7, 12, 15, 16, 19, 20, 23

7. just answered!

12. tbh? it’s farsa. they love staying connected to nature and also they absolutely know that they do not have to stop and every single fruit stand. it’s all for the lolz (someone @ farsa: we literally stopped ten minutes ago why do you want to stop again.) ((everyone stops though because estevot is driving and they know that farsa will only become worse if they all don’t stop))

15. OH THAT’S THE GOOD SHIT!! roadtripping is half about the sites and scenes you see along the way. not everyone is a morning person, but the ones that can get up early enough bundle up in extra blankets and coco and then get to enjoy a blissful moment of serene wonder. truly the best part of roadtripping.

16. behemias and jana will make shit detours to out of the way stops to try a local dish said to be so good, it’s to die for. the only difference is, behemias does it for the experience of trying something new bc it’s all so novel. for jana, it’s about seeing what good in the area and getting to know something new.

19. a cryptid you say??? unfortunately half the gang is not familiar with cryptids so this doesn’t happen as often as i would like it too. anyways. it’s farsa that demands to make these stops and detours because “oh hey! that’s my friend! i haven’t seen them in forever!” they’re lying. it’s absolute bullshit but no one can prove otherwise so they’re all stuck making these stops.

20. for a team of so many dumbasses, running out of gas had to happen at least once, specifically and especially when estevot or tristan is not the Adult On Duty. no one knows what to do. no one wants to do anything. someone suggests using magic to spawn more fuel or teleport out of there. they are reminded that none of the magic users have that ability. someone suggests making a temporary camp until someone else comes by and rescues them. eventually there is a small house instead of a camp. no one else has come by in a long time to rescue them. these idiots just live there now.

23. that’s canon babe! every opportunity possible, these good good kids are stargazing and swapping stories about various constellations. the human ones are fun and behemias never really got to learn about the stars, but farsa and estevot always have the best stories (they say it’s because they actually know what happened.)

5,7,8,10 :)

Thank you!! Now to remember to do this for Julian and Charlie rather than Nadiya and Mary Sage. (Note: both of my OCs are women)

5. Which OC gets homesick nearly immediately? Do they get over it?

Definitely Charlie. She misses her hometown a lot. She doesn’t get over it so much as grows used to it.

7. Which OC yells “HORSE” whenever they pass by horses?

Julian! She hasn’t seen a lot of horses, being from San Francisco, and must point out EVERY horse she sees.

8. What does your OC do to pass the time on a long stretch of road?

They play a lot of music. Charlie sleeps while Julian drives. A lot of cheezits are eaten.

10. Which OC brings a guitar to serenade the other OCs as they travel?

Charlie. This is not to say she’s particularly good at it, and it annoys the hell out of Julian, which is maybe partly why she does it, but hey - anything to pass the time, right?

20-28 for your kids and do like one kid for each question :)

i’m an indecisive bitch so you get extra answers for all nine questions :)

20: What’s your OCs favorite kind of pizza? jana likes going to the pizza places that let you choose your own toppings for a flat rate because she gets to load everything on and have a mountain of a pizza that cannot be eaten without a fork and knife. wesley judges her for this every time they go for pizza while eating (in his opinion) his much more sensibly topped pizza (bbq chicken w a changing variety of veggies)

21: Who is your OCs best friend? tristan and egeline are the bestest of friends! they’ve known each other practically since the cradle and have stuck by each other’s sides for so long you might forget that they’re not siblings the way they act with each other.

22: Has your OC ever killed someone? lets uhhhhhhhhh, lets be very tactful about this. certainly there are some (three or four) among the eight that have done uhhhh less savory things in their past and some of those activities have included deaths 👀👀

23: Whats your OCs biggest secret? behemias’s biggest secret that he keeps from the rest of the team is how involved he is with the antagonists (them being his family) except he jumped boat before it got too hot so he doesn’t actually know too much. helsevina’s biggest secret that she keeps from her family and the other people around her is how much she misses her brother and how suffocated and pressured she feels all the time.

24: What does your OC smell like? farsa definitely smells at least a little bit like petrichor and probably a little bit like sage or other earthy herbs. estevot smells sort of like ozone and gunpowder, but mostly something distinctly earthy and almost like old books.

25: What time of year does your OC prefer? jana loves the fall season - it’s a good time for her to break out cute sweater fashion because it’s not too hot and not too cold. wesley on the other hand loves summer because he loves summer activities.

26: Is your OC a human or an animal? (or something else idk) i was going to go around in a circle but this is too good of a question to limit to two babs. the humans of the team include jana, tristan, and egeline i think. i’m on the fence about tristan and/or egeline (wesley is a human but not actually on the team. he’s a baby and i refuse to put a baby through what i’m putting everyone else.) behemias and helsevina are both demonkind but helsevina isn’t on the team either. farsa is a fae and estevot is somewhere between human and fae. wink.

27: What languages does your OC speak? unfortunately i don’t even know where i am with languages other than there’s common and multiple different dialects for different species based on things like time period and location.

28: Does your OC like anime? let me put down right now in stone that they would all would stan fma:b even if they didn’t care for other anime. outside of that, farsa and wesley, maybe also behemias, would unironically like anime
