All art is at once surface and symbol

A. Post a list of 20 fandoms.
B. Have your friends list guess your favorite character and pairing from each one.
C. When guessed, bold the line, include the character and pairing names, and write a sentence about why you like that character/pairing.

(Some have multiple faves, so if you guess either, you're good! Polyships can also be answers)


1. LISA: The Painful RPG Character still open for guessing. Ship guessed: BradTerry! Those two are so sweet together, and there's so many opportunities ripe for healing or tragedy. Especially in AUs where they can get a chance to be happy together. ;;
2. Pokemon (Ultra) Sun/Moon Lillie, Hau/Gladion. I love Lillie's character arc and I'm so proud of her for standing up to her abusive mom. ;; Hau/Gladion is wonderful because it shows Opposites Attract in all the best ways. Both Hau and Gladion grow and learn from each other~
3. Pokemon (Soul/Heart) Gold/Silver/Crystal Morty or Eusine, Morty/Eusine. Morty was one of my earliest crushes and he's just awesome for being a Ghost trainer while also having ambition and a heart of gold. Eusine is great because he's basically a personification of my autism and I find him endearing for it. Morty/Eusine have been long-time best friends who have always supported each other's dreams, which I find is a wonderful basis for a relationship~
4. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon
5. Revolutionary Girl Utena Anthy, Utena/Anthy. I just love how angry and spiteful Anthy is towards the world, and that she still deserves love and compassion. The whole series has Utena and Anthy's relationship as the center of the story, and the way they learn to open up and trust each other despite all the backstabbings is waaaah. ;;
6. Puella Magi Madoka Magica Homura, Madoka/Homura. Homura works so fucking hard, and in the end, she's still human and prone to selfishness and mistakes. Madoka/Homura is both fluffy and messy in that they can build each other up while also tearing each other down. I really really really want the final movie to give them the happy ending they deserve. ;;
7. Undertale Asriel, Frisk/Chara/Asriel. Asriel is so sweet while also being the most human (ironically) character in the game, grieving and traumatized and doing lots of horrible things because of it. Frisk/Chara/Asriel is made up of characters who went through so so so so much and understand the unique horrors they went through, and now they get to start together again. ;;
8. Undertale Yellow
9. Deltarune Spamton, Spamton/Kris. Spamton is my horrible, creepy, hilarious, tragic crooked puppet salesman, and I'm forever fascinated by his rise and fall and surprising relatability. With Spamton/Kris, they're both in a weird fucked up situation only they could understand, which could either lead to the most dysfunctional dynamics in the world or solidarity which helps them heal. ;;
10. Super Mario Geno, Geno/Mallow. Geno is amazing and awesome and there's just something so cool about a kid's doll coming to life to save everybody, not to mention he's also the closest we get to an alien. Geno/Mallow is just pure sweetness, fluff, and innocence. ♥
11. Yume Nikki
12. Neon Genesis Evangelion Character still open for guessing. Ship guessed: KawoShin! Kaworu's episode left such an impact on me and I would've been so curious how their relationship would've evolved if Kaworu hadn't died. ;;
13. Mawaru Penguindrum Himari, Himari/Ringo. I like how despite being sweet and kindhearted, there's so much more to her under the surface and her awareness of how bad her situation is hits hard. Himari being the first to reach out to Ringo did a lot for me to hop on the ship and the rare times they interact on screen is adorable. ♥
14. Yuri Kuma Arashi Lulu, Ginko/Kureha/Lulu. See Episode 4. That is all. I was really rooting for the OT3 and it feels more right to me than just Ginko/Kureha and Lulu being a third-wheel/forgotten. ;;
15. Sarazanmai Toi, ReoMabu or Entoi. I was surprised how attached I grew to Toi--everything about his relationship with Chikai hits me in the feels. I'm torn between ReoMabu and Entoi, and I blame several people for the latter--I just like the Opposites Attract angle and how surprisingly well they work together (even when Enta's being an ass and hyper-focused on Kazuki, haha. XD) but at the same time, ReoMabu is just classic. They're adorable in their spinoff manga and the little bits of background information we learn from the light novels makes what happens to them in the anime even more tragic. ;; Not to mention the dance. THE DANCE
16. Cuphead
17. Fear & Hunger
18: Fear & Hunger 2: Termina
19. Earthbound Beginnings Lloyd, Teddy/Lloyd. Like Lillie, I'm in love with Lloyd's character arc and that he didn't need to become the strongest party member in order to find value. For Teddy/Lloyd, I find the contrasts between them fascinating and I love the respect that Teddy developed for Lloyd and how that became part of his arc, and waaaaah, I love it.
20. Earthbound Character still open for guessing. Ship guessed: JeffTony! Those two are angels and Tony's devotion to Jeff is just so goshdarn sweet. One of my most wholesome ships~ ♥

God, the worst fucking dreams are where you know you're dreaming and you're doing everything in your fucking power to wake up, but nothing works. Your eyes are way too fucking heavy and you're still stuck in the dream even when the waking world is right in your grasp.

So now that I'm finally awake, let's distract ourselves from worldly horrors with writing memes. I've been much more active than I have in previous years, boy oh boy~ Not counting my Yuletide fic because that's gotta stay anon until reveals.

First, from javert:

Rules: go through your last 5 fics and share the first and last line. No context.

( Go figure, almost all of them are LISA fics. )

And this one's from rionaleonhart:

Number of fics written in 2023: Including chapter updates to longfic? Seven fics. Six if we exclude Yuletide. It's a whopping large number compared to recent years, since I've been in a massive writing slump. Recently it's like "Good god I have these ideas and I can't keep them to myself anymore," which is goddamn refreshing.

Fandoms: LISA: The Painful RPG, Deltarune, Undertale, and (REDACTED)

( Most of it is about gross grimy men living in a dystopia. )

Give me a ship and I'll write 10 different categories of fic in one sentence.

1. Angst
2. AU
3. Crack!fic
4. Crossover
5. First Time
6. Fluff
7. Humour
8. Hurt/Comfort
9. Smut
10. UST

If I'm not comfortable with smut for the ship, #5 can mean anything and #9 will be turned into simple kissing. :)

I'm so bad at these because the years are getting short and feel samey to me. ;; But I'll try!

Team Star and Penny are the ultimate friendship solidarity. ;;

I finally watched The Last Unicorn after it had been sitting on my bucketlist forever and now it's one of my all-time favorite movies. ♥

Fuck off, Flowey. Go guilt-trip someone else. (Also, Maria from SH2 and Mary from Ib should be friends)

Favorite Main Character of 2021: Himari Takakura (Mawaru Penguindrum) and Nan (Nanquest) :D
Favorite Het Couple of 2021: Ruby/Tom (Rubyquest), of course.
Favorite Yuri Couple of 2021: Himari/Ringo (Mawaru Penguindrum)
Favorite Yaoi Couple of 2021: Pablo/Lorenzo (Nanquest), and as a result I'm in Rarepair Hell. ;; Regarding content I've actually finished writing and drawing? Father Velasco/Lorenzo (Nanquest)
Favorite Polyship of 2021: The Addisons/Spamton (Deltarune). So much tragedy. ;;
Fandom That You Never Expected To Get Into: The Terror, a historical horror series based off the IRL Franklin Expedition. Huge thanks to my bf for showing me it. ;; Cornelius Hickey is Villain of the Year 2021, I fucking lovehate him.

Favorite NB Couple of 2021, as well as Best Couple of 2021? KRIS/SPAMTON FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH

( Yuri and Tabuki still suck, the ending is mysterious )

The Child Broiler reminds me of the gigantic meat grinder from Pink Floyd’s The Wall. After finishing the show however, it reminded me of another thing: animal control centers.

( TW: Animal euthanasia and neglet, canon-typical child abuse )

To end the post on a brighter note, I made MPD Miis for Miitopia and had Himari befriend Sprinkle in Animal Crossing. also MEMES

Psst! I got a pillowfort. :o

Send me a character (or two, or three, or more...) and I'll list all my OTPs, BroTPs and NoTPs for them!

Send me any ship and I will give you my brutally honest opinion.

TIME FOR ME TO EVISCERATE SHIPS

In reality, I’ll probably just end up fangirling most of them. :p
